Jake and I were married and sealed together for Time and All Eternity September 1, 2012 at 11:15am in the Mesa Arizona Temple. We will not have a home for the next 10 months, and we do not know where we will end up after we finish our last year of Podiatric Medical School. We are Wonderers, in our own way, but we love each other very much, and have been blessed with the only thing that matters and the one thing know one can take away from us...Each other. As we embark on a new Journey together Jake and I want to document and share with others our exciting new life. This is our story as it unfolds...

Jacob and Jaycie Birth

Our little beans are here!!!!! 
I am so in love with their little faces!! I didn't know that I could love something so much.







01/24/2019 
Symptoms: morning sickness, exhaustion, moody, heart burn, 
Cravings: sub sandwiches, gelato, oatmeal, cottage cheese 



I kept jumping when thy were trying to numb my back and every time they asked if I felt a sharp pain or a dull pain it was a sharp pain for an extra long amount of time. I was so surprised when they tested it and sent an electric shock down my legs! I was so nervous about getting an epidural but the nurse helping was so nice and helped me through getting it done, I was also scared about getting a Cathidure put in and I didn’t even realize they were doing it and by the time I realized what they were doing down there it was done. 

The anistigiologist took me back to start getting the block done and the epidural all set and Jacob was taken to get changed. They started to cut my insesion and they asked how mommy was doing and I
said I was doing great and asked where daddy was, the anistesiologest got a shocked looked on his face and said, “umm.. let’s get daddy in here” ... they had totally forgotten to get Jake and they had already started the surgery, If I had not said anything I don’t think they would have remembered to get him!

C-Section time 


Jacob didn't mean to get this picture of me open on the table, he was trying to get a good one of little Jake as he came out... i'm sure thankful for modern medicine!

Jakes chord is on the left and Jaycie's is on the right, it is such a miracle that she is here with us and healthy.

2016 YW Stuff Tucson New beginnings/Girls camp/ Fundraiser

Tucson 2016 Young Women
I had some amazing experiences with the amazing young women of the Pima Ward! Here are a few of the highlights of my time serving in this great ward. 


New beginnings was a great start to the 2016 year, we had the cutest decorations! 












The young women were asked to decorate for the christmas party/dinner the day before the party with a ten dollar budget... We wrapped so many empty boxes and i'm glad I didn't take the recycling boxes out that week.  

For a mutual activity we decided to surprise the bishop and his counselors with a stash of goodies for when they stay late (they usually were at the church on a sunday until 7 or later). The young women wrote some uplifting notes on all of the snacks. The young women absolutely loved it!

2015 Trek

The Tucson AZ East Stake Trek 
This was such a challenge for me because I was not only in school, working, 
Young women's president but I also had to round up all of the equipment for each one of the kids make sacks, bonnets, skirts and make sure everyone brought every thing. SO. HARD!!
But in the end all of the kids had a fantastic time and I even make it through even though I didn't know how my foot was going to do.
