BeAuTiFuL DaY



Today is so warm and nice outside. We went out to have a picnic and to play! We are really enjoying seeing the sun, I think it was just over 60 out there, Very Nice!!

So Sadie grew over night I think, she use to be so small now all of a sudden she is a rock! she is so heavy, she weights about 15lbs now, she's turning into a little Ethan, and the Michelin man. But she is still just so darn cute!

Yeah, Ethan was to busy playing to pose for any pictures for me but here is some of his favorite things to do outside!

At the Park

This weekend we went to the park, it was so nice and warm. I loved being outside. And yesterday I got asked to give a 15 min. talk at church in 2 weeks, Yes I am scared to death, I am not a good speaker.
We had some friends over last night and they just adopted there 2nd child and they shared with us a video of pictures of the birth mother and them as she gave them her baby girl. It was so sweet, I cried thinking about my birth mother giving me to my parents how hard that would have been, mine was allot different though as in I have had no contact with my birth mother. But I am so thankful everyday for the choice she made to give me to my parents.


Happy Birthday

There are a few family members in my family who's birthday is this month and I want to wish them all a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! I love you Bro. and Aunt Peg.

Im Back!


Well I am back to reality, (well kinda of) I just got done reading twilight, new moon, and eclipse. I have never been so hooked on a book my whole life. I now have to get out of Fork's and Bella Swan and Edward life's. Until August as I wait for that magic month to finish my dream land story. I do have to say I didn't like that last book as much, I read it a lot slower because I didn't want it to end, but it was a little to gory for my liken. But I do love these books, even thought I would have never thought about reading about vampire and werewolf.

Play-date!

Today I had play group at my house, it was fun, I made this yummy Apple dip for the apples and just had some Trail-mix out. I thought it would be fun for us moms who aren't on top of the ball to make some V-Day cards for our hubby's. Two ladies made really cute ones, so I will just have to copy there ideas, because I didnt get mine made.
This is a pic. of how much fun we had here, I meant to take a picture of the kids while they played but forgot so here is Ethan with all his fun toys!! Ethan has allready said that he misses all his friends, he cant wait for the next play-date! Thanks friends for coming over!!

Girls night IN, while the boys OUT!

Ethan found him self a reindeer, He told me that Santa was coming too.
All the kids put on this Captain Moroni skit and made a flag!

What a fun weekend! Erik and Ethan had a father son camping trip with some other dads in our ward, while I had a night of lounging at my friends while watching a movie, and eating some really good food. Then coming home to a bed all to my self.. (well along with Sadie) It was great.

On Saturday Ethan, Sadie, and I along with some other ladies in my ward went letter boxing- it is where you hike around and find boxes and leave a stamp inside saying you were there.. It was fun we never found any of the boxes but It was still a very pretty hike!! It was only 10 min. from our house! So now we have found a good camping spot as well!Ethan was so sick of me taking his picture, so this was the look I got!
Reevkah held Sadie the whole hike, she is awesome! Thanks Reevkah

Splish, Splash

Splish, Splashing!! the tub has to be one of Ethan's favorite things!! He got this boat from a friend and he loves it! He has taken his bath time to a whole new level of fun!! Sadie on the other hand, does not enjoy her bath time she screams, we dont have a tub down stairs so she is not use to the whole idea yet! So here she is before she is scared to death! Poor thing, I guess I should bath her more to get her ready for the pool this summer!

So Thankful


I am so excited for our new Prophet Thomas S. Monson I have always had a love for him and his voice it has always been a comfort to me. I am also excited for his counselor President Henry B. Eyring, first counselor, and President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, second counselor. What and exciting time.

I want to bear my testimony that I know that this church is lead by a true Prophet President Thomas S. Monson. I don't know where I would be without this church in my life. I am so thankful for parents who taught me the true teachings. Erik and I were talking last night about if we were not born into this church would we join. And of course you say "Yeah, I know I would." But really I think I was born into it because that is the only why I would have joined. Because thinking back to like collage years, and how much fun I was having, I think if I were not a member I would not understand why this church was the true one, I would just look at all the rules. So I think the Lord knows me well to have me be adopted into such an amazing family. I am so blessed to live the life I do. I am working hard each day to be a better Saint and love this blessed gospel! To those of you who wonder what is so great about our church, I would have to say, the feeling you have with you all the time. The Sweet Spirit that keeps you going along with that constant companionship that you feel from it. I know this to be the only true church on this earth. And I look forward to what each day brings.

Date Night

On Friday I had cabin fever so bad... So I left, and went Shopping! I went to the factory stores and got some good deals at Carter's and Oshkosh on some cute things for the kids!! like 3$ deals! Yeah it was good! Then Erik called me and asked me on a date! So I went home and actually got ready, waited for Kyley's dad (a girl I babysit) to come get her. Then Erik got home from helping a friend move, and had with him a new printer!! I was so excited because our printer has not been working and I am always begging him to get us one.. So, I was extremely happy! (the kid Erik helped moved got it with his computer and didn't need it, so gave it to us, thanks!!)

So we left both kids with my in-laws and we were off. We went to this Mexican restaurant forgot the name, it was sweet they had these singers that sang to each table, it made you feel kinda special, (after feeling kinda dumb, because you don't know if you should look at them the whole time or keep eat.) Then we went to Baskin Robins, I have to say that was the best part... I LOVE ICE CREAM!! We shared a Ch. Oreo scoop and a Mint Ch. Chip scoop. mmmm mmm mm.

What a great date! Thanks Babe!!
