We've joined the Bloggers!!!

December 4, 2010

Wow! We are official bloggers! Many of you who may follow our blog are family, and so perhaps some things will be repetitive.  For all the rest of you....enjoy!

This has been an exciting year in for the Rigby's!  We started the year engaged and so excited for our new life together.  We were married on May 28, 2010 surrounded by family and friends.  For Amanda the marriage included a move from Katy Texas to join Matt in Colorado Springs.  Matt is currently working on a Masters Degree at UCCS and works with USA Track and Field.  Amanda is working at the Broadmoor Spa as a cosmetologist, a job she loves!

It was  a crazy few months getting settled in and unpacking.  A quick trip to Washington for Steven & Ramie's wedding in July.  Steven is Matts little brother.   It was a great trip and lots of fun!  We also met Erin, Jeff's (now finace).

As the time passes married life is great.  Life always has a way of throwing some curve balls into the plan!  Matt and I were so excited to learn we were pregnant, and with an understanding that the Lord knows best we lost our baby at 10 weeks. We trust  that with faithfulness and hope we will be blessed again soon. 

A wonderful treat for us was a trip to Utah to visit parents.  Matt's parents Pam and Frank were also in Utah meeting Erin's parents.  It was great to see everyone.  My brother Tim was also able to come and spend Thanksgiving with us!  We are so blessed with such wonderful families!  We love you all!

Back at home in Colorado we are gearing up for Christmas, Matts finals and playing with our puppies.  We added a new furry baby to our family in November.  His name is Bubba, he is a blue merle sheltie and a great addition to our family.
We are looking forward to many new and exciting adventures and hope you will share them with us here on our blog spot!

  2. You're added to my list too. You know, I have to comment that my mom really wanted to make sure Sugarbear's birthday was added to the calendar of family birthdays and anniversaries. She sure loves that dog!
