A drive!

well today when josh got off work at 8:00 we decided that we wanted to take the blazer for a drive. We decided to go up rich lane to where he went hunting at last year. it took us about an hour to get to the road that he took to get back into the wooded area it was so nice cause it was so peaceful and calm. When we started up this one hill to his actual spot there was this heard of sheep in the road and they would not move out of the way. so we stoped and there was no way to turn around so josh (the excelant driver that he) is had to backup down the hill. He did a great job. on the way down we saw this pond that looked to be 2 levels, but it was only 1 when you got closer to it.

we then went to morgans bridge to walk around. It was a very great day, nice,warm, and buitiful. I took this pic of the kids. They had so much fun. It was so nice to spend time with the kids, it has been so long.


I thougt this pic of makayla was just so cute, of her looking into the river. She is growing up to be a very butiful girl.

austins baseball

austin decided he wanted to try little league this year, so i went and sighned him up. He had only 2 practices due to the poor weather. Well his first game was last night. He lost but he still had a lot of fun. The weather was okay it started to get cold towards the end. There was this lady that sat behind us who would not shut up. she wasnt watching the game or supporting her child at all. She was talking the whole game then she would ask oh are we loosing? or why is the couch out there pitching? I wanted to turn around and tell her to shut up and watch the game then she would no that it is called couch pitch (one of the kids pitch 3 balls and if they dont get a hit then the couch will come out and pitch 3 balls). The game lasts 5 innings or 1 hour and a half what ever one comes first. his next game is on friday if the weather holds up. He plays against his cousin. so that will be a good game. Go austin we love you!

makaylas birthday







wow makayla just had her 3rd birthday. Boy how time flies, it seems like only yesterday that she was both. She has grown in to a little princess, her birthday was on the 23 but we celebrated it on the 22, we had a party for her where most of her aunts and uncles and cousins showed up it was fun. She got a lot of clothes. She is really into the little princesses right know. Her aunt rose bought her a little princess night gown and some slippers, and a little birthday crown. That night she had to wear the night gown and the sleepers. the next morning i had a hard time getting her to take it off she kept saying I'm a princess it was so cute.

valintines day






so it has been a while since my last post i will start with my valentines day we received our tax money and went to Idaho falls to get prices on washers and dryers. We were also looking for a new stove. We spent a few hours there then came back to Blackfoot and got all 3 from Blackfoot appliance. we then went and bought a sofa table that i have been wanting for my hall way. It has a granite top so it was very heavy to bring in to the house, the hall way doesn't look as bare as it used to.

my weekend

So the potty training is done and over with. She really only had 2 accidents during the day, and one at night. so she was pretty easy. i have been trying to catch up on the housework over the weekend.(since i was sick for three days and didn't do anything). I thought i was doing really good when i walk into makayla's room and she decided that it would be fun to draw all over her bedroom walls with her markers. I tried to get it off with the magic eraser but that was not happening. so i had her in there scrubbing it with a wash rag while i was using rubbing alcohol to get it off. So needless to say it took me about a half hour to get it off. She came up to me and said "mommy me don't do it again". How can i stay mad at her. My son brought home a certificate about respecting others. he said that it was hanging by the office at his school. Austin is doing good in school. He comes home almost everyday with a different girlfriend. or saying he is sad because his girlfriend dumped him. I'm like wow he is only a first grader. i think it is so cute.

potty training

wow we have been doing the potty training thing with makayla. It has been a pretty good experiance. So diffrent then potty training a boy. She has done really good we just decided to take the diapers away and tell her that she needed to be a big girl. Josh took her diaper off monday morning and she cried a threw a fit for about 45 min but she calmed down and decided to give it a try. She was so happy the first time she went in the big toilet that she had to call me at work to let me know. She has had a few accedents but she has been doing really good. Im sooooo proud of her. I am not going to have a child in a diaper for her third birthday im so happy about that
