Day 14

Day 14 - A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without.

This one is a no brainer...
My Jonny! He is my best friend, my husband and the father of my kids! What more can I say? He makes me life wonderful!

Day 13

Day 13 - A picture of your favorite band or artist.

I think Im pretty well rounded when it comes to what music I like to listen too. Its true I dont like a lot of rap or really hard rock, but other than that, Im pretty flexible. It was hard for me to think of who is my favorite. I finally decided on Brad Paisley. I just think that every song he comes out with is so good. He has a wonderful voise and is pretty easy on the eyes, that definetaly helps :)

Spring Break

We actually got to have a spring break! Jon had a whole paid week off. It was pretty great! We had plans of going to Utah to see family and friends, but changed our plans at the last minute and just ended up staying home. It was so great though! We ended up painting Ella's room, which we had wanted to do for awhile. It turned out cute and we had a lot of fun working on it together. Here is a before picture. This is right before we set up to paint, so the walls are cleared off and everything was moved to the center. But you get the idea.
And then the after:
Makella really wanted to have a pink room and since she had done a pretty good job of destroying the old paint, we decided to just do it. She knew we were painting it pink, but we didnt let her in her room until it was all done and put together. It was a huge suprise and she was SO excited! I loved seeing her face when it was all done. She gasped and said "Oh... look how beautiful it is..Its pink just like I wanted! Thank you Thank you!" She was in awe. If you know Ella, you can probably imagine her saying that. It was really cute.
I was also able to work on our garden a bit. It was still a too cold to do alot with the ground, but I got some little seed starter things and planted a bunch of plants that are supposed to be started inside. Ella helped me do it and we made some cute little markers, so I wouldnt forget which was which. It was a fun little project. Its been a little over a week and there are already a few little sprouts! Im really excited to be able to get them in the ground. I also got some strawberry plants and planted them outside. Im excited to have a garden this year...hopefully I dont kill everything!


We also were able to celebrate Kamden's birthday. Jon's parents came up and Kami asked me to make some cupcakes for his party. I was really excited because I love to have a reason to make cupcakes! His theme was trucks, so I made some trucks out of fondant. I definetaly have a long way to go before I really good at it, but every time I do it gets a little better. It was fun to be able to practice a bit. Here are a few pictures from the party.
This is Kayleigh, she was just hanging out and having a great time. She is such a sweet little baby and so cute!
I just love Kamden! He is the cutest little kid and he always have a huge smile for everyone. I missed all the really good cake pictures, but he seriously dove into that cake and got it everywhere. It was great.

Jim and Kay just got back from hawaii and got all the grandkids some cute hawaiin outfits. We tried to get a group shot of them, but didnt really turn as good as we had hoped. Noah pretty much cried the whole time and I was pretty unsuccessful at getting a good picture. But they were cute anyways.
Besides all that we just stayed home, had lots of movie nights, relaxed and had a great week. It was just what we all needed. Jon went back to work today, so its back into regular life and Im ok with that :) Happy Spring Break!

Back Again..

ok I took a week off. Jon had a week off of work so we were pretty busy. More on that later. Im determined to keep up with this blogging thing, so Im going to catch up on it before I do some other posts.

Day 06 - A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day. This is probably a little dorky or weird, but I would love to be someone who works with big cats. They are pretty amazing, and if you take away the fact that they would love to eat you, it would be awesome to have one! Thats why I would only trade places with these people for a day. Anyways, snuggling up with a huge tiger would be fantastic...go ahead, you are allowed to call me crazy.

Day 07 - A picture of your most treasured item.
This one was actually really hard to think of. I dont really get attached to too many THINGS. I tried to imagine that my house was on fire..what would I grab besides family members and such? The only thing I could think of was all my pictures and old keepsake stuff. Which, now a days pretty much means I would grab my computer since thats where most of my pictures are. I've always loves having lots of pictures. I used to have boxes of them and I was always going through them and organizing them. So I guess I just really treasure all my memories.

Day 09 - A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most. These are my parents! They are the best parents ever! They raised me, so I think that pretty much counts as getting me through the most stuff. They have always supported and been there for me and I am pretty grateful to have such wonderful parents!

Day 10 - A picture of the person you do the most messed up things with. Im gonna switch this one to who I do the most FUN things with.This is pretty easy since I pretty much do everything with this guy! He can always make me laugh and we always have a lot of fun together. No matter what we are doing.

Day 11 - A picture of something you hate. I had a hard time thinking of something I really dont like, but this is what I finally thought of..
Flies...I think they are ugly, gross, annoying, etc. Definetaly hate it when I lay down at night and just find the most perfect comfortable spot and then hear a FLY buzzing around the room. It drives me crazy... It takes me a long time to fall asleep at night, so something like that makes it impossible.

Day 12 - A picture of something you love.
Mangos...seriously good stuff! I never really had one of these until I was pregnant with Noah. For some reason I all of a sudden craved them when I was pregnant. I ate one pretty much every day for months and would freak out if I didnt have one at the end of the day. Then after Noah was born, I didnt really need them anymore and didnt have one for awhile. I recently had one again and I still love them! They are so good and I think Im gonna have one right now :)

ok, now Im all caught up and hopefully I can stay up with it. Good job if you were able to make it through all that !
