Cousins and Landscaping

Eric's sister Crystal and her family are moving back home after being away for over five years. And we are so excited to have them close! It will be so fun to watch the kids play and grow together. Her kids are pictured here, Caden who is 3 and a half and Hailey who is 15mo. Well they have purchased a beautiful new home and Eric has put in a lot of work there installing the sprinkler system and helping build the new patio and fence. Unfortunately I got to play the mom card and didn't help out enough. But I did get some cute pictures of the boys while I watched them play in the dirt and kept them out of the way.

Lets get going!

Well I suppose I should start "blogging." I've been having a lot of fun getting my "playlist" together.

I wanted to start this blog so I can share everyday special moments about my life and my family. I figured it would be a good way to keep people updated and document the life of the Drews.

Currently our family is made up of Eric, Rachel, Micah and Ethan.

Eric and I met in 2001 after I returned from my mission, la gran mision de Buenos Aires Oeste, when I was still Rachel Stoker. We dated for a year and were married in 2002. The following year we were sealed in the Laie Temple in Hawaii for time and all eternity. Those were two of the happiest days in my life.

Now as Micah says, "we're all Drews!" Micah is 3 and a half and Ethan is 19 months old. They are both all boy and really keep me on my toes. But they are the most amazing blessings in my life.

We are loving life here in Colorado. Eric has been with Wells Fargo for 10 years now and is currently working for them as an analyst. I enjoy my days at home with our boys and hopefully have a hand in helping them to grow into happy, righteous, and productive men.

Well, the coming posts will include all of our adventures. So sit tight...
