Blessed!

I have had an overwhelming feeling of gratitude today. I was watching Grace play, and couldn't help but be FILLED with love for her, and everything in my life! She just got over the stomach flu (again!). Don't worry I used the oils, and she came out just fine. As a matter of fact, I kept her fever under 100 with just peppermint! Can you even believe it? But that is besides the point. She was so wonderful while being sick. Every time I would help her after she threw up, she would say "thank you mommy". It just melted my heart. It was the perfect opportunity to get lots of cuddles from my girl!

She asked for wings a couple of day ago, while playing. I tied some on her dress, and then she promptly ask to "fly". I said "fly, I can't make you fly". She then said "im a fairy...I want to fly!". It took some explaining, but I finally got it though to her that little girls can't fly...only fairies like tinker bell.


I am also grateful for Spencer's NEW JOB! Yeah, I don't even know how long it has been since he has had a job, but he does now. I have been worried about posting, because it was almost to good to be true. I didn't want to say something, and then it fall though. But he is done with training, and got his first pay check! I want to shout from the top of the mountain how happy I am. I honestly don't know how we made it so long financially....but it has been a huge testimony to tithing. We have been so blessed. I can just feel the love from our heavenly father.

Along with a new job, we got a new car. Well not NEW, but new to the Pitts family. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family, and Spencer's sister Michelle was selling her van. We sold the Land Cruiser (don't worry, we are SUPER sad about it. We loved that beast, but it was for the good of the family. Someday we want to get another one to restore) and bought the van. I had been driving the NON air conditioned land cruiser for weeks, and was just about ready to DIE! I was a little hesitant because I feel really young to be driving a mini van. But I love it. It is so convenient! It is a smooth drive, good gas mileage, good insurance, and registration. It is perfect for our family.

There are so many things that we are blessed with. I could go on for hours. But here are some pictures from the last couple of months!



Oh, we got a puppy. Don't ask...I know we are crazy. But his name is Jack, and we love him!
I tried on my wedding dress last month. We played dancing princesses!

Grace got her FIRST REAL HAIR CUT! So cute!


Isn't she the cutest?



Also, Spencers cousines came to stay with us. This is there adorable daughter kaydence. Nicole (her mom) did Gracies hair. Aren't they cute!
