Happy Birthday!


I just wanted to wish My sweet husband John a Happy Birthday! I know it was'nt that exciting because he worked last night and then had to go to work tonight, but we went to breakfast this morning and I made him a German Chocolate cake. And the kids sang him a song and helped him blow out the candles. Anyways John I love you, and I hope you have a great BIRTHDAY!

Happy Shopping

I hope everybody had a great Thanksgiving! and I'm sure most of you paid for it the next day. I always eat way to much. We had a great Thanksgiving, the kids had fun playing with their cousins. Last year My Mom, Sandi and I went and did Black Friday. And we did it again this year. Yes I got up at 3:00 in the morning and was to Wal-mart in Springville by 3:30, I know I'm crazy! but I'm telling you it is so much fun! And I was so excited I got an Optimus Prime Transformer (yeah) Transformers are a really hot toy right now. You should of seen how fast they went. I just happend to see the guy with the transformers cart so I followed him and stood next to him the entire time. And it paid of because they only got 12 in and I got 2. I had a great time! And Holly I would have paid Money to see you go after that lady! considering we were practically standing next to each other and did'nt even know it. You go girl! Anyway I got some super deals and have most of my Christmas done, that is a big relief. Now I just need to get my Christmas tree up and some Christmas lights up. I can believe it's almost December, time sure does fly! Happy Christmas Shopping!

Tagged

So my lovely friend Holly tagged me, and I have never been tagged before. So I thought I would I would give it a try. And I think the rules are, I list 6 things about myself and at the end of the post I tag 6 people, and go to their blog and tell them that they have been tagged.

1. I love Transformers! I watch that movie at least twice a day. I love it! and I really want Bumblebee from Costco! I thought I might buy it for Elijah for Christmas, but really it would be for me. Don't worry I will share
2.I'm a total perfectionist at everything I do! and it drives me nuts sometimes, because I cant let anything slide. I will do it over and over again till its perfect. And drive all around town till I find what I need.
3.(you will laugh at this one) When I was in Junior High me and my friend thought it would be cool to shoplift a bathing suit from a store, a friend of ours told us that it was really easy. So needless to say we tryed it we went to ZCMI in the University Mall, and tryed to walk out with bathing suits and yes we were caught and handcuffed and taken to Orem city jail. That was the worst day ever! and I had to meet with a judge and he sentenced me to 10 hours community service. I had to go to neighbors house and pick pees for the weekend, that was alot of fun. And yeah I never shoplifted again.
4.I love Sewing, its my stress relief in the evening. I will stay up till 3or 4 in the morning sewing. But you know what its so quite and peaceful when the kids are sleeping.
5.I love good deals! when clothes are really cheap I go nuts. I love getting clothes for my kids. And it's even better when they are really cheap.
6.I'm a little competative when it comes to certain things. I always have to do the coolest. When Halloween comes I always want to make the coolest costume. And I will go to the extreme to make it happen. I will try and make an exact replica of whatever costume I am making, I will do research to find out details. (yes I know I'm a freak) And for school my kids get to do this All About Me poster and yes of course mine is the best. Hey the kids help (a little)

I tag-
1.Sandi Rust
2.Heather Gonzalez
3.Geana Goodwin
4. Keri Scoresby
5.Pat Gonzalez
6.Andrea Romero

Happy October!

October is always a buzy month for us. Makenna turned 6 years old last week and we had a big Birthday party for her and it was alot of fun. And then it was Halloween and I always have to make costumes because I'm never satisfied with the store bought ones. This year It was Snow White I have always wanted to make Julia Snow White, because I think she makes the perfect Snow White and she did, she looked so darn cute I could'nt get over it! The hours that I spent making her costume definetly paid off. Makenna was Sleeping Beauty and my good friend Chiska made that for me, she is a awesome seamstress, it turned out so cute! And I spent some time making the crown and necklace, and it turned out really cute. Elijah was Batman, I did'nt get alot of pictures of him because he was being a stinker and woul'nt wear his costume. The only way I got him to wear it was because I told him the only way he could get candy was to put his costume on, and that worked because he loves candy. Noah was Prince Charming this year, this costume I had made for Elijah when he was Noah's age, so I was excited that it fit Noah, and did'nt have to make another costume. The kids had so much fun trick or treating. They ran from house to house, it was hard keeping up with them. It was alot of fun watching them and seeing them get so excited over little pieces of candy.

Halloween

Me and My Sisters


I was looking through some old photo's and I found this picture of me and my Sisters. I have'nt seen it for awhile, but it was my all time favorite picture of Sandi, Heather and Me. Looking at this picture brings back memories of when we were kids and fighting like cats and dogs! At the same time it makes me appriciate all that my sisters do for me and how they make me feel happy when I'm sad, they are always a shoulder to cry on. They both are so talented and have so much going for them. And we have stuck together no matter what! So I'm truley gratefull to have these to wonderful woman in my life. I just wish that I could see them more often. Sandi moved to Altamont( I know you are thinking "where the heck is Altamont!) It's about 21 miles from Duchane. But it is a 2 hour drive from my house, so needless to say I dont make it out there that often. And Heather moved to Denver Colorado, which is about a 12 hour drive. In July My mom Pat, Sandi and Me went on a girls trip to see Heather in Colorado, and It was so much fun! I enjoy both there company we always have a great time!

I love you girls!

My Little Model

Julia is so funny, she loves getting her picture taken. You can tell that she felt so pretty in this dress because she was dancing around like a ballerina and striking a pose every second so I had to run and grab the camera. She was being so cute I could'nt resist I had to take a picture of her. And as soon as I got the camera out she started posing for me, it was hilarious! she told me how to take the picture. She would tell me " take a picture like this" and would do a pose and then do another pose. She got on her tummy and put her hand under her chin. She is a total proffessional! I guess I know who will be the next model in the family. I think I took about 30 pictures of her and she said "okay I'm done, no more pictures mommy" and it was time to put away the camera. I wanted to show you some of the pictures that we took that day, they turned out so cute! And to tell you the cute story behind the mini photoshoot, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

It's back to School Time!



All the kids started school this week and they love it! Makenna loves Kindergarten when she gets home from school she is so excited and has to tell me all she did that day. I can tell that she is so happy. Julia and Elijah both started pre-school and right away they love it. Elijah was so excited to tell everybody that he colored at pre-school. Julia just started today and she was so excited to show her class her back pack. I cant believe how time flyes, all my little ones are in school and getting bigger by the day.
