Braden and Heather's Easter Sunday

This Easter i got to spend it with the love of my life Braden Hatch. Easter started with Chruch which I sang with the choir then came home and dyed Easter eggs to hide later that day. We went to dinner at his Aunt Hollys house where his Aunt Brenda and kids and Grandma Beverly was at. IT was a blast. the food was delicious and it was nice being around Family on Easter. After dinner we headed to Bradens house where he hid my eggs inside the house for me to find and I hid his outside ( yeah i buried some and hid them hard for him, we came inside to exchange easter baskets- I made Bradens easter basket full of soccer stuff, he had a soccer ball basket, soccer ball eggs and lots of soccer themed candy, In mine he made me where lots of jelly beans and plastic eggs filled with candy, everything was very girley, then in one egg was a note, he send me on a hunt around the house to find my big easter gift, he got me a build a bear. her name is Sugar Lips. I got Braden one for Xmas and his name is Fyghter. Here are our egg dying pictures.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter.. this year has been a very blessed year. I got my Temple Recommend, met a wonderful man, and got new pictures today of my little angel and they came in time cause i was having a bad day.

5 months already

Wow its been 5 months since I signed my rights as a Mother to give my daughter a two parent home. I seriously can’t believe its been 5 months already, where has the time gone too… there are many things that have helped me the last 5 months cope with my loss… I will just name five

1. My family and Braden
2. My loving birthmother support Group
3. Sharing my experience with others
4. The openness of my Adoption
5. Daniel and Lynzie for the Many email updates and many visits I have had with them and Evelyn

My life has been so blessed. I have continually seen the reasons why placing my Daughter with Daniel and Lynzie was best. She has a two parent home who love her (as much as her birthparents love her). She gets to grow up with the priesthood and many men surrounding her who are worthy to bless her when she needs it. She gets to grow up in a home where the spirit is so strong and where she has two amazing parents who want whats best for her. She gets to have an Eternal Family that she can be with Forever!!(PLUS she gets to see the world and experience all that I never was able to growing up.

Evelyn has been the best thing that has happened to me. She brought me back to the Gospel and to my Heavenly Father. I know the true meaning of sacrifice because of her. I will love her each and everyday of my life more and more. She will always know that I loved her and I gave her this GIFT cause I LOVE HER that much. I couldn’t ask for better parents for my little angel than Daniel and Lynzie. I am grateful each and everyday of my life that Heavenly Father led me to them. I am grateful for the love they show me and that they finally have a family.. Evelyn Gisele Allen I love you with all my heart and Always will. You’re my Angel. Thank you Daniel and Lynzie.
