Happy Mother's Day To The Ladies !!!!!!

Hello Ladies,

Sorry it has been awhile I have a lot to update, a lot of things have been going on for us, so stay tuned, but I just wanted to send out a message to all the ladies.
I just wanted to let everyone know how greatful I am for all the good examples I have around me. I take in a lot from people and use it daily, and I am thankful to be a mom myself, and to have that opportunity. It is really not easy being a mom, but the rewards are so great that it makes up for all the hard times.
I love my mom so much and have learned more than I thought I would, and I have realized from living with her that we are so much alike. We have had a fun time together, and Braelyn loves it too. I will cherish this time we have to live with them, because soon we will be on our own, and won't get to experience this again. Thanks so much mom for your inspiration, humility, and laughter your the best. I hope you know how wonderful you are and loved by so many people, everyone around you loves to be by you, Thanks for Everything.
To my mother-in-law Kaye you are an amazing woman, and I love you like my own mother, and I appreciate your Love and Concern for us, and always praising us and lifting us up. We look forward to our visits in Cedar City, and you are just good at everything, we know that when Braelyn is with you that she is just in the best hands, I hope you know how wonderful you are and you should be proud of yourself and the great job you have done raising your children. Love you, and Thanks for Everything.
To all my Sisters and Sister In Laws, I am truly lucky to have good woman to be around, and that have done a great job raising there kids. A lot of you work very hard, and I am thankful for each of you and the things I learn from everyone. Thanks to those that have kept in touch, and for your concern for us, and our wellbeing, we appreciate it so much.
Last is my Friends, I am so Thankful for all my friends that I have. I know I could do better, but the love I feel as though we were sisters is amazing. You have been there for us through our trials, especially these last few years, with figuring out what we were going to do, and all the hard times we have had, but especially for the good times. We are blessed to have the friends we have and I just want to thank those that have checked in with us, and have been there for us through everything.
Mother's day has been wonderful today, and it makes you realize how great it is to be a mom, and how lucky we are to have been blessed to have children. I hope I can be a great mother to Braelyn as well as to our future kids. Thanks again Ladies for all the support and I Love All of You.

Hailey's Birthday Party !!!!!

Brealy got invited to her first birthday party, and had a blast. She especially loved the crown that they got to decorate and the wand.

Braelyn is still a little young for party's because she spent the whole time in this car, so much for joining the other girls, but Jayce had someone to play with. Well as long as he was in the back and Braelyn was driving, she is already setting her ways for when she is older. Women would just rather drive so that they can go there way, other wise we tell the men where to turn, how fast to go, etc. Yeah ! Scott doesn't it like it when I do that, but I am learning to just let him drive.

Oh! Another picture in the car, even when it was getting colder, and they were about to eat the cake and icecream I had to go get her to come in, I guess we will have to save up for a little car.

It was cute all the girls played kick ball, and they all had a good time. That is the birthday girl Hailey kicking the ball, she is a cute girl, and plays with Braelyn so good.

Here is all the princesses with their crowns and wands. It was a fun party, and Braelyn had fun.

Pictures with Audrey in Town !

Well we had a fun time having Audrey stay with us awhile, and Casey came down too. We got to go to the park, spend Easter together, and Braelyn and Braxton had a lot of fun together, as well as fighting. What can you say they are both the only child, and so sharing for several weeks was hard for them. They did get some good hugs and kisses in. Below are just random pics of the things we did


So for Easter they got these fun bubbles, and I was blowing them for Braelyn and Braxton, and Scott decided below that he wanted some too. How Cute !! I know he is a kid, just a big one. We had a fun time, and we had a lot of fun with Audrey and Casey and there cute boy Braxton.

We had some nice weather to hang outside, and the kids both had some kites, that they got to try out, however the wind was not strong constant, so it didn't work too well. But we had fun.

Uncle Ammon had fun with them, and was a great helper playing with them. Casey my brother in law is on the right and Uncle Ammon on the left.

Braxton loved going down the slide and just laughed every time, he is so cute.

Braxton sure loves his mom and had a hard time if she ever left his site. He especially didn't like Braelyn cuddling with Audrey is was funny though. It is so fun having family and I love getting to see everyone.

Some Easter Pictures !!! I know a little late

I know I am back tracking a bit, but we got extremely busy the last month, and so I wanted to post a few pictures from Easter. Kent and Kaye stopped through to visit with us, it was a great suprise, and Braelyn had a lot of fun, especially with Grandpa Kent, she sure loves him.

Little Miss Curly Sue !!!!!

I never thought that having a girl would be so much fun. I love getting Braelyn ready. Kids are lucky because they can get cute so fast, and it is a lot funner shopping for them. I find it opposite with me. Anyway Braelyn has always had curl in her hair so every once in awhile I like to put mousse in it and difuse it for a minute, and it goes way curly. She is a pretty good sport too. She also likes to have her toes "pretty" painted. It is cute, she holds pretty still, and it makes her feet so cute. She is just so much fun, and I just love hanging out with her and we have fun as a family.

Just a few more Pictures of Brae !!!

Okay this is it, I just had to do some color ones of the same day, and some more cute ones of her posing again, what a natural. It is too bad I haven't got any professional pictures yet. I know I am bad, we just haven't had the money to do it, but it looks like I don't need to they work out just fine with our camera.

Update and Random Pictures !!!!

Yeah ! Things are finally slowing down for us, well for now. The last two weeks were crazy, and we are going down hill now. I will be able to get caught up on here now. I am so greatful for work though and everything our parents have done for us ( including Scott's parents ) They have been so wonderful, as well as family and friends being there for us as we figure life out and what we are suppose to do.
Lately I have been going back at pictures of Braelyn when she was young, I don't know if it is because I am wanting another child, but Braelyn just looks and acts so big, that I miss the baby stage. So in looking back at pictures I came across these two that I just love, below I will explain.

I just love this one, I was just snapping away and she just looked over at me, and I just caught this adorable face, I just love the black and white too. I wish I knew more on photography because I love taking pictures. Both of these pictures were taken when she was 4 months old.

Here she is posing again and not even knowing it. My parents had a grandkid camp up in Wyoming, and Scott wanted to take Braelyn for a ride on the fourwheeler, and so we strapped her to daddy with a long sleeve shirt, it was so cute, and so I took a picture of them, and when I cropped the picture this is what she was doing. It was perfect, and again I love the black and white.

Anyway it has been fun to go back to all of our pictures, minus the ones of me in the hospital after having her. Yeah! We can forget those. Just to explain to those who did not see me, as my brother in law said it " You look like you just got squeezed out of something " I said " I know I feel like it " It was funny, and looking back I Really know what he meant. But I did experience an amazing thing though and Braelyn was worth every second.

Well I will have to post some more things that have gone on, and I just really want to thank those that have supported us, these last few years have been a little rough, but we have been blessed so much at the same time. Our time has just not come up yet to really know what we are suppose to do in life, but we are heading in the right direction. I do feel good about the future though and I know that we will figure out things. We are so lucky to have such wonderful parents and siblings, and friends. Thank you so much.
