RickAndGina: tHe pAsSiNg of a GrEat mAn

One of the most wonderful, patient, humble, and generous men I know. My Grandpa Manning passed away earlier this month. I, and many others will miss him dearly. He was such a good man and a perfect example of what a husband and father should be.

My name is GiNa tRimMeR. I am 33 years old and have been married to my cute husband, RiCk for 8 years. We have a little boy named kAstLe that is 3 years old. He is the coolest thing to ever happen to us. We just welcomed our 2nd baby boy HayEs and we couldn't be more excited. We live in Southern Utah and we absolutely love it! I am not much for words and stories at this time in my life {busy managing our vacation rentals and chasing around the 3 men in my life} so I prefer to journal through photographs. These are our day to day adventures.

April - "New to Blog"

I just found out about "Blogging" from some girls at work. Staci actually sent me an invitation to her blog and I thought it was so cute, but I didn't know that it was the new thing. So here I am. I love that I am finding all of these people that I know by looking at other people's blogs. I don't know what to write or what to show, but here it is. We don't have kids yet because we want to travel and hang out just the two of us for now. My sister read into my comment about "working on baby #2".... No we are not expecting baby #1. I just meant that by then, we should at least have baby #1 and maybe working on baby#2.

The Years Fly By

15 years ago... I was 10 and couldn't wait to be 16. I loved hair, make-up, clothes and boys. I have three older sisters that I always wanted to hang out with so I wanted to do everything that they were doing.

10 years ago... I was 15 and couldn't wait to be 21. I was still into all of the fun girlie stuff, especially boys. We were always having parties or hanging out at someone's house. Jr. High was so much fun! Don't get me wrong, I had a blast in high school too. I miss those days.

Today... I am 25 and very much still into all of the girly stuff like clothes and shoes. I have narrowed my boys down to one. One very fun and very cute boy! Rick is my best friend and my entertainment. That boy keeps me laughing! I never know what will happen next. I love him very much and I am so lucky that he takes such good care of me.

In 5 years... I will be 30 and will be married for 6 years and hopefully at least working on baby #2. We'll see what happens, every day is an adventure.
