Christmas 2009

Well, this Christmas was very fun. The kids are at an age where they get so excited, they can't hardly stand it. Its the only night all year long when they are begging to go to bed, and are begging to get up. Dev came into our room probably 5 times, "mom, its four three one, mom, its four-four-four, mom, its five zreo zero. I finally gave in. I don't know whats better, Devin shaking opening up his presents because he is so excited, or Sydnee yelling, yes, yes, yes, this is the best day of my life, or Shelbee crying Christmas eve saying " I hate Santa, hes obnoxious". It was all a LOL for sure..... I see why our parents tell us that these are the best days of our lives! I am thankful for my sweet, healthy, beautiful kids!! PLEASE will someone stop them from growing up??? It is freaking me out.

Don't let the boys fool ya... they really are having a great time. My mom recently added on to her house. It is so nice to have all the big open space for everyone to drive each other crazy in. Dev is always asking for a brother. Its easy to understand why when we look at this picture.

Jasey wasey



For the last 5 years!

Being a home health nurse has taught me a lot of things. One thing is that we should be thankful for good health EVERY DAY! This is one of my long time patients who died on September 21st. I have been putting this off for awhile because I have just gotten to the point that I don't cry when I think or talk about Jason. Jason was my long time patient for 5 years. Although as a nurse I know that a person with as many problems Jason had could literally die at any second, when I got the call he had passed away, I was still surprised. I am so glad that he was at home when he died instead of in the stinkin hospital (which he hated). Jason had spina bifida and was in a wheelchair for most of his life. We were always battling a pressure sore. There were times I saw him twice a day, sometimes only 3 times a week. It just depended on how bad his wounds were. Needless to say I got very attached to him. Now, I'm not gonna lie.... his house was actually scary, along with a lot of his friends. Who by the way were never anything but wonderful to me! I know when people saw him, they thought he was mean and scary. I literally had to schedule my visits so that I could come right home, get naked in the laundry room, put my clothes in the washer and hit the shower. He smoked, (more than just cigarettes), and it wasn't uncommon to have a whole bunch of people there listening to Jack Johnson and drinking who knows what.. But ya know, Jason was always so appreciative for what I did for him. He was always pleasant despite all of his problems. He tried to make things as easy for me as possible. He was so thoughtful and was just a great person. He would give anyone the shirt off his back, and believe me....he had nothing! I just want to remember how much I loved him, and what a privilege it was to get to know him like I did. I MISS YOU JAS!! XOXOXOXOX

15 yrs + 3 kids =


Can't believe I'm posting this

Hello, we are really stupid, young and IN LOVE!!

MY how time flies!!!!

Happy anniversary to us!! November 12th marks our 15 year anniversary!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! Well, you may want to pee before you see these pictures. SO FUNNY!! So, how do 2 people, completely opposite, stay together for 15 YEARS? Heck if I know. I do know that we were WAY to young to get married, we were basically complete idiots, and I STILL completely ADORE him!! Life with Chad is never boring. One of my favorite things about him is that he constantly makes me laugh. He has some stupid comment for everything. Oh, and who wouldn't love the fact that for some ridiculous reason he thinks I hung the moon. This is so selfish, but I have to admit the fact that at the end of the day, I know he loves me.... He makes me feel good about myself, and I LOVE that! Anyway, enjoy the wedding announcement. Chad begged me not to post it....wahahaha

Anyone for a laugh??

Caught up for now!!

Man, I have been off the wagon! Lots of pics just waiting to be posted are finally in. Its so fun to re-live the last 4 monthes! Time goes by so fast, my kids are growing like weeds! It is so fun to watch them change and grow, but it also make me sad!! We had a ball at halloween. Halloween is Chaddy boys favorite holiday, he can't resist scaring the kids. He had out the crow bar and ketchup before I got home from the salem trick or treat. The kids are prepped for it so Syd and Dev brush it off and laugh, but tiny wasn't going along with the joke as planned. She purked up after diggin into grandmas chilli. After all the running around we headed down to my moms and had chilli and watched scary movies. Good times, good times.

The 24th of July, aka my FAVORITE Holiday






















My dad's birthday is on the 24th of July. That is why we have the parade and celebration in Spanish Fork on the 2th of July. It has nothng to do with the pioneers. It is my favorite holiday! I LOVE it all, the parade, the rodeo, the unsanitary danger of the carnival, I look forward to it every year!! This year we all went over to the Payson pool after the parade to chillax with the fam, we had a ball!
