Blessed.

Thanks to Mom and Dad Krebs for Jackson's adorable blessing outfit!
 On Christmas Day, Jackson Andrew Krebs was given a blessing by his proud Papa. It was such a sweet and happy occasion and we are so grateful for our families for taking time to be there, especially on Christmas morning. I'm especially grateful for the Parker family who came to the blessing and their sweet little kids, David and Olivia, who were excited to be there even though they had presents waiting to be opened at home! Jackson sure does have some awesome relatives who care so much about him.

Our happy little family :)


In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we give a baby blessing to little children. The blessing is performed by worthy priesthood holders. The father usually pronounces the blessing. It includes the naming of the child as well as a blessing. This blessing, along with all other blessings that can be given in the church, are given through the power and authority of the priesthood allowing them to be a mouthpiece of God. I'm so grateful that Chuck is a worthy priesthood holder and that he is capable of calling on God to bless our family. Through Chuck, Heavenly Father blessed little Jackson with health, integrity and joy. He was also blessed to be a peacemaker in our home and be a good example to the rest of his siblings yet to come. What a wonder this gospel is. I'm so grateful for the chance to raise up Jackson with the knowledge that he has a Father in Heaven who loves him and cares about him.

Christmas Time.

I know, I'm a little behind. But I at least wanted to post some pictures from our wonderful break in Kentucky and South Carolina. Thanks to all of our wonderful family who made the trip TOTALLY worth it.
Jackson's first Christmas!

So cute :)

Jackson must have been really good this year :)

Aunt P and Jack :)

The kids loved the pinball machine.








Hanging out with Grandma :)


We got to see Em O. while we were in SC!






Mom with the grandkids ;)
We absolutely LOVED getting to be with family over the break. I'm so grateful that we were able to make it back home for the holidays :)

Santa visits the Krebs

So, technically Santa is supposed to come on the 25th, but we put a word in that we'd be leaving town on the 24th. Lucky for us Santa stopped by a little early :)

We celebrated Christmas morning with our new little family on Friday, Dec. 23rd.




Dad got candy, so Santa figured Jack deserved yummy treats too.


Our favorite Christmas present :)

#3 KENTUCKY VS. #4 LOUISVILLE

The other entry that is my responsibility to write (brag) about is this great game that I was able to go to in legendary Rupp Arena :). We were still hanging out in South Carolina with Momma Woods when Leah called and had extra tickets to the UK/UofL game for Saturday the 31st (New Year's Eve) - it was at noon which meant we had about 12 hours to get back to Lexington.

After a brief conversation with Emily she gave me the go-ahead and we left at 4 a.m. from South Carolina to get to Lexington by noon - we arrived at 10:50 at Dad Woods house, ate a quick breakfast and Leah and I were off :)

love this place!

Amazing seats... best I'll ever have!
Leah got the tickets from one of the families she nanny's for - they were INCREDIBLE! 
Momma got Jack all ready for the game before we left SC - he sure looked good...

start 'em young - raise 'em right! Go CATS!

Warm-ups in Rupp

How true it is - KY basketball never stops

tip off

Jay-Z was in town... about a week before his daughter was born... Blue Ivy Carter. Coincidence with the "blue"? I think not!

MKG goes up for a jumper...

Me and my sister-in-law Leah, thanks for the ticket!

What a legendary floor...
