Whats In a Name?

Good Question.

 For Those of you who are undoubtedly wondering the reason behind our Blog name. Let me Splaine.

 By experience:
 The day you get your first pet or you have your first child,  you go into it with a list of names you've been working on sense you were little. And that list has finally come down to the one and only "THE NAME". But when you first see that dog or baby girl you look at them and say to yourself, "You don't look like a Sophie" or "You don't look like a Spot"... "Damn it". That's when you go back to your list and you then realize that none of the names you've thought of "Look" Like them at all, and that's when it just Comes to you. The name you've been trying to decide for years came to you in a simple look or thought.

            I went through that similar process, just in ten minuets. I knew I didn't want it to be the traditional "The Bascoms" . I wanted it to actually have meaning and relation to Me Jake and our future family.
    
 And I Thought I Loved you Then...

That title isn't just the song Jake and I danced to at our wedding, But its what I often think when I take a step back from our crazy lives and realize how much I have been blessed with. I Thought I loved it then.. what about now!? There is always so much more in you're life than you think.

                                                Take your step back.
