My little Dallin is 2!!!!!!

It was two wonderful years ago today that I gave birth to the most amazing child. I did not know what to expect becoming a first-time mom, but let me just tell you I did not ever believe in love this strong. I have learned so much from him and I have loved wathcing him grow into this curious, funny, little version of Drew. He is so much like his Daddy and I am so lucky to have such a wonderful little family. Dallin has taught me so much about unconditional love and how to love that I am amazed each and everyday how much I learn from him. They grow up too fast and I would not trade one minute of it. Happy Birthday little Buddy!

Dallin and his blanket!

Okay, so I am posting this because I feel like it is funny but, making me a little mad at the same time. So when I found out I was having a boy (Dallin) I began making quilt after quilt after quilt and so did my mom. So by the time Dallin was born he began his sweet life with at least twenty handmade, precious quilts. Well he has never really had a favorite until my sweet Mom gave him one of my brother Tyler's, old baby blankets about eight months ago. Well to be honest it isn't the cutest thing ever, however it is Dallin's favorite, and I mean favorites. We have tried to trick him into liking many other blankies, but to no avail. He loves that light blue, worn-out, elephant blanket. Well matters became worse when we told him it was Uncle Ty's he liked it even more. He takes it everywhere and he will not sleep without it.
I guess I just feel a little sad that I put all that hard work into making him blankets that he doesnt even like. Oh well. I will post pictures, when I figure out how.

A Field Family Christmas!

So this evening we had the pleasure of going to Nibley, Utah to have our annual Field Family Christmas. WOW!!!! It was fun. My Aunt Julie is an amazing cute and she makes the best homemade rolls ever!!!!!! We had an ornament exchange and then exchanged gifts. It was so much fun and it totally put us all in the Christmas spirit. It makes me feel so good that even though my Dad has been gone for 13 years, we can still get together with his family and share all of our fun memories. That is what the season is all about. I got some fun pictures and I will figure out how to post them. Merry Christmas!

Help us if you can!!!!!!

So it is a Field, VanDyke, and Trease Family tradition every holiday season to find a very deserving family in need of a little help this Christmas. We have chosen a very special family, who I am keeping their name a secret however I will tell you a little about them. It is a Grandmother and her husband who have taken custody of their three small Grandchildren ages 3, 5, and 7. The Grandfather just lost his job due to a layoff at a local manafacturing plant and the Grandmother is working full-time to provide for her family, times are definately tough for this special family. I know money is tight for many of you out there as it is for my family as well. But I know in my heart that this family deserves the best Christmas ever. So....... I am asking my friends, family and fellow bloggers out there to help our family out if you can. We would really appreciate any small or large donation you would be willing to give us to help this very deserving family out. Leave me a message if you have anything (money would be great). My email address is drewbritroxy03@hotmail.com Just drop me a message and I will get with you and take your donation. We are planning on delivering the gifts and treasures to the family on the 18th of December. I would love to have the donations by then. This is the third year in a row we have done this and nothing brings our family more joy and thankfullness than giving to others. I hope you all have a very Happy Holiday and Our family would really appreciate anything you could help with. Love Always Brit.

Karlee's Big Day!

So many of you were there to share in the special day with the Field-Trease family. My sisters wedding was nothing short of AMAZING!!!! My mom is very, very decorating-talented and she and Karlee did a FABULOUS job of making Josh and Karlee's day beautiful. It took place on October 4th at Sherwood Hills Resort and I was the Maid-of-Honor, and thanks to alot of hairspray and makeup I looked pretty good. Anyway, I know have a problem, Some of my blog followers want to see pictures and I dont know how to put them on my blog, HELP!!!! Just tell me how and I will be forever grateful. My dear friend Liz has already dedicated a whole evening to showing my computer-retared self how to do it and I hate to ask her again because then she will know how really stupid I am. K if you help me the sooner I can show you all the beautiful day. loves and hugs!

Tell me what your are thankful for!

So I was listening to the Kenny Chesney Christmas Album today and I heard a song that I have heard before but was unaware it was a Christmas song. However, It was called "Thank God For Kids" and I thought what a perfect song for Thanksgiving ( I know I am weird) So if you havent heard the song please, please, please find it and listen to it. I cried and cried and cried. It makes me so grateful for my little buddy Dallin and how grateful I am for him and of course his Daddy. Our lives changed drastically when Dallin was born and it was all for the better. I have learned so much about unconditional love, and I am truly grateful for that. I know it is a bit cliche, but I really am grateful for the love I have and the love my husband and child have for me. Tell me what you are grateful for. I loved hearing about all of my friends and their fun family traditions, and guess what I am going to start one this year too. So this is my next request, tell me what you are grateful for. Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!!!
