Keeping Life Unfiltered as a❘Wife❘Mother❘Adventurer❘& Memory Hoarder


I grew up and now I see...

1.26.2015

  I think I have decided that being an adult is no longer something to look forward to but actually something I am currently doing RIGHT NOW!  I am so happy to be an adult!  Its so weird to think back on memories and see them so vividly as if they were yesterday.  I have been so lucky to have such an incredible family surrounding me and my partner in crime...my hubby for life and beyond!
  My 3 babies have been such a strength for me in my growing upness, i guess you would say!  I have grown up at the same time as my boys and I like it that way.  I was 19 (almost 20) when I got married to the love of my life and we have built an amazing family, friendship, respect and a super cozy home together.  I have slightly aged since then...a total of 7 years actually and I am now an adorable 27 years of age!  I am older, wiser and I am so happy to actually be proud to be ME!

***I have such smart siblings to surround me with love but, to also look up to at all times!***
  
LINSY ALAYNA my 23 year old sister is a beyond amazing and talented writer.  She is literally brilliant!!!  Linsy commits to the fullest and always follows through regardless of the circumstances or barriers.  Although, she has been dealt a couple lame cards she kept up her positive attitude and graduated from The U of U!  I was so incredibly proud that day to see her amazing smile and unbeatable brilliance in her eyes!  She has shown me that regardless of literally anything, you can still achieve your dreams and become a freaking journalist / columnist at the DESERET NEWS!  She is truly amazing and I look up to her each and every day!
KIANNA MARIE is my 19 year old sister whom is an amazing artist.  She can use her voice and immediately put a smile on anyone's face.  She has a knack to attract positive energy everywhere that she goes and loves to bake yummy desserts and arrange beautiful flower arrangements!  Not to mention her amazing presence and natural peacemaking skills can attract anyone to her truly bright aura. It has always been hard for Kianna to see a dispute so to say, and not want to dissolve it immediately.  In our family she automatically becomes the voice of reason and can somehow make all of us feel better.  She is a hard worker and has a poisoning personality of AMAZINGNESS!  not want to always make things better in anyway that she can.
LINDON OLIVER my 15 year old attractive son of a gun of a brother!  He is a hard core, adorable and just has such love for his sisters.  We have always wanted to take care of him but now as his older sisters are aging we are now being loved and taken care of by our amazing little brother.  I should also use the world LITTLE very lightly with my bro because he is way to strong and a freaking GENIUS.  He is always thinking of ways to change things and use his natural mechanical skills to improve or even invent just about anything.  He is an truly talented wrestler and has a thing with the ladies (even at 15)!!!  I am so proud to have such an amazing little brother and cant wait to see him grow!
  I have always been so against saying I was anything like my mother but in fact its completely the opposite!  I have grown everyday to see that my mother has always been my EVERYTHING!  She has never been one to complain, say no or even turn up anything that has to do with her children or grandchildren. 
  I am so proud to say that my mom is my HERO and forever always will be.  She is a FIGHTER, an unbelievable and unbeatable spirit to reckon with.  She is the one I can call at 2 am because I just need my mom and we can talk for hours.  Its just that simple!  Not anyone (other then my amazing brother and sisters of course) is this blessed in the world to have such an incredible mother and HERO that we have.  I just wish truly that I would have noticed what a great example perfect person I had for my very own mother my entire life!

  I also have another truly inspiring person in my life and she is my mother-in-law!  So many people respect her and even want to be her and heave her amazing ZEST for life.  She has always been the first to make sure that I am one of her daughters and it has meant more to me then she will ever know.  I do officially call her MOM and my father-in-law, DAD.  I don't think I realized that what an impact parents have on their children as they are growing up.  After I married my hubby I saw that they totally did something that resulted into perfection because I am now happily, oh so happily married to their youngest most attractive son Bradley Scott.
  They always say when you get married you also marry their family and guess what I totally won the Publishers Clearing House of In-Laws!  They are always willing to be supportive of Brad and now of course his drop dead gorgeous wife...ME!  I would not be as strong of a wife to Brad, if it wasn't there true transparency in there love for there children and now of course me!  Oh and to top it all off I am the loudest person around and I can see it may irritate my Daddy-In-Law a tid-bit but, then I believe he comes to his senses and realize I am the best thing that ever happened to The Christiaen's family.

  I have discovered many things along the way such as; I am proud to be a mother and wife every single day of my life!  I have learned that nothing will ever stay organized regardless how hard you try and I have mostly let go of that!  I have also realized that while growing up as a mother and a wife 24/7 that I am strong, important, talented, a teacher, a homemaker, a full-time booboo kisser, a different and much better person then I would have been without my amazing husband and babies!  I am so happy to live life everyday to the fullest and remember to actually be in every moment because you truly just never know and...I want to always KNOW and REMEMBER the MEMORIES of my amazing LIFE!
