Meet the Bowdens

I decided to start blogging again since I have an abundance of free time as a new stay-at-home-mom. My old blog was deleted so here is the new one..Welcome!

A little bit about us....

We were married in Gilbert, AZ in the Mesa AZ Temple for time and all eternity on June 25, 2009.

                                  (A most triumphant day indeed!)

I graduated from BYU with a Bachelor's Degree in Communication Disorders (basically pre- speech pathology and audiology) in April 2010.

In July 2010 we moved to Ohio. Just like the Bon Jovi song, we were "livin' on a prayer" as we packed up whatever we could fit into two cars and left Utah, without a job between us. It was a year full of learning experiences and I have grown spiritually and intellectually. 

In December 2010, about a week before Christmas, we learned we were expecting our first child! In April 2011 we learned we would be having a boy! On August 22, 2011 at 3:21 pm Riker Morris Bowden was born via C-Section (after three failed inductions)! 

                        (Fire engine red hair and a temper to match!)


Fast forward to today, January 8, 2015...Riker is 3.5 years old and lots of fun. He is very social and loves playing and going to preschool. We will Be married six years this June and will have liver here for five years on July 7, 2015. Time flies and I hope to catch you up and keep you all up to date.
