Wimmin!

So I woke up this morning to another cold stormy day and decided that I was just going to pretend that it hasnt been freezing all month! So I decided to take Makella swimming. They still had the indoor pool, so it wasnt so cold. She loved it! We were just in the really shallow part, but it came up to her shoulders in some parts. She wanted to do everything by herself though. She wanted to walk all by herself and didnt want me to even hold her hand or anything. She just went right in without and looked as if she was ready to just take off swimming! She also went down the slide a couple of times and just had a great time! The whole time she was saying "wimmin" and "wawee"


I asked her to smile for the camera and this is the face she gave me.
This is also the face she gives me when she is mad at me, so I dont know what she was thinking. It made me laugh though.

She loves the water!

Poor poor kitty

This past winter has been pretty hard on our kitty. She has really long fur and doesnt really know how to take care of it being an outside cat. We tried to keep her brushed and stuff, but it didnt really work, so she ended up being REALLY matted. It got really bad. We have just beein waiting for it to warm up and then we were going to shave her. Well it is finally a bit warmer, so we shaved it! They had to sedate her because it was so bad. I felt AWFUL. But she made it through, and she looks really silly with her short hair, but I actually really love her with her short hair. She is so happy and cuddly. I love my cat to pieces! So you may think she looks crazy, but I Love it, so be nice! :) Anyways, here she is.



I just wanted to put up this picture because I thought she looked sooo cute in her little pink hat. I love it!

3 Years!?

On April 1st me and jonny celebrated our 3 year anniversary! This past year has gone by really fast for us. We have been having a wonderful time though and look forward to many many more years! We had a pretty simple anniversary, but it was really fun. Jonny got me roses...they were so pretty! He had something planned, but wouldnt tell me what it was. So we got Karianne to babysit and he took me to a play!! Yeah I know, you probably cant ever picture Jon ever going to a play willingly. But he did because he thought I would like it. Which I did! I just think plays are fun, so I was excited. We saw Les Miserables. It was just a high school performance, but it was actually pretty good. Jonny didnt even know what it was about, but he actually thought it was pretty entertaining. So it was a great evening. We Really appreciate Karianne braving our little girl for a night...who, by the way, cried for her ALL night. Poor Karianne. :( We felt bad. We are hoping she wont always be so shy of other people. But I guess we'll see.. Anyways, We had a great night. I love my hubby! :) Here are a few pictures looking back on our wedding!

Trips. Easter, and being sick!

Its been awhile since Ive posted and Ive got a lot of catching up to do! I went to visit my family in Washington this month for almost a week and a half. We had such a good time just hanging out up there. I always enjoy being able to get out of Utah for awhile! WHile I was there, I was able to find out what everyone has been talking about! I caught up on all the Twilight books! I couldnt really put them down so I read them all pretty fast. Its really easy for me to get into almost anything I read, so I really like them. Plus, it was fun to read them in Washington because its the setting of the book, so I could picture it a lot more. So Im glad I got to read them!

We went to go see some baby lambs and calf and lots of other animals. Makella Loved it! She would point to every animal and do whatever animal sound she needed. She felt the need to Yell "bah" to all the sheep. It was really fun for her and i liked seeing all the babies animals!


We also went to a neat park to go feed some ducks and geese. It was pretty cold that day, but fun anyways. Then Makella and Danika played on the swings and stuff for a little bit.


Makella and Grandma at the pond!


Ben did Makella and Danikas hair. It looks fabulous! Makella liked playing with Danika and its fun that they are only 4 months apart!

This is the fort me and Lacy built for them to play in. They had a great time running in and out of it!


A few days after we got there, Makella got pretty sick. I felt so bad for her! She had 101 fever for a while and was pretty sick for a couple days. She had a cough, a fever and a bad runny nose. She was pretty much miserable and I just had to take some pictures of how sad she looked!


Ella finally got better and the day before I left, we had a little easter celebration. We decorated eggs and had an easter egg hunt for the kids. Matt and Mandy came over and we dinner and a party for Leah's birthday! It was a fun day!

This is Makella's idea of dying eggs! Maybe next year....!

I had a great time in Washington, but I had to come home! I got home on Easter morning and I was sooo sick all day! (Thanks Ella!) So Easter wasnt so great, but I did make a basket for Makella and for Jonny. I got a basket from Jonny too, so its was good! Jon helped me a lot to by letting me rest for a lot of the day! This is about the only picture I got though.


It was sad to have to get back into everyday life, and Ive been pretty busy since I got home, but I definetaly got a little rejuvenation while I was gone. It was great! So Im sorry Its been so long in between posts, Ill try to be better!

Pretty as a picture!

A while ago I got this cute little bench from my friend, but it was blue and had winnie the pooh stuff on it, so I decided I would redo it and make it a bit more girly for makella. There are still acouple of improvments to make on it, but for the most part it is done. I think it turned out pretty good! Makella loves it! So I just had to take some pictures of her with it. The hat she is wearing was one I got at target for a dollar. Whenever we go to stores, we always try on hats, I dont know why, we just do. So I tried this one on her and she loved it! She got really mad when I took it off and she went through the whole store with it on saying "hat" the whole time. Its pretty cute!

Birthday Party

Im a little slow with this, but I wanted to post some pictures of makella's party. She got the dress she's wearing from my mom. she looks really cute in it! She lots of presents and got pretty good at tearing the presents. She really loved the cake jonny made too. Though, she just threw it around more than she actualy ate. It was lots of fun though!
