Welcome to our lives!!

Hi Everyone! Welcome to our brand new family blog! We decided to start this blog as a way to share the important, exciting, or just plain fun events and happenings in our lives! Our days are filled with so much love and happiness, and we are hopeful that by sharing our lives with you, that you are able to experience just some of that joy! Within this blog you will hear about the wonderful things (and some not so wonderful things) that come with being new parents and raising our sweet baby Olivia Nicole. You can expect lots of pictures, stories, and updates about the silly things that our little bug does everyday.

Currently, we have begun (again) our journey towards living healthier lives. Brittani and I both gained more weight than we care to talk about during the pregnancy, and have decided to make a "lifestyle change" to start eating better and live more active lives. We look forward to the days ahead that we can run and play with our sweet "Livi Bug", without needing to cart around the oxygen tank. We are excited about making these changes, but I think both of us are a little worried that it may be more difficult than we can imagine. This is not the first time we have tried to lose weight together, however I have a good feeling about some of the decisions and plans we have already made. Also, this blog will serve as our "weight loss journal" as we work towards our ultimate goal of being happy and healthy for years to come. You can help too!! Encouragement from friends and family are always welcome, and if you have any tips or suggestions from your own experience, please share them. We need all the help we can get!

Our hope is that by creating this blog, we will give some insight into the things that bring us so much joy each day. Thanks for reading!!!
