I'm so exicted...i just can't hide it!!!!!!!


Okay so last night Jareds boss or someone gave us tickets to Indiana Jones and I have to admit that I was not all that excited to go.  I'm not a huge Indy Fan.  Plus I am sick.  My eyes are watering, I have a cough, my nose is stuffy.  Anyway so you get the idea!  I just wasn't in the mood.  
So we walk into the movie and low and behold what do I see....HSM3!  As Boston would say.  Oh ya baby!  I got so excited.  I totally forgot I was sick and I was just totally pumped!!  It has the release date...October 24th!  Oh man I can hardly wait.  I know most of you think that I am a sick teeny bopper.  But I know some of you (and you know who you are) are just as excited as me.  :)  Anyway I will be going to the movie on October 24th to the latest time to try and avoid screaming girls---anyone is invited!  Ha ha! 
Oh and Indiana Jones was actually pretty good!  I didn't fall asleep! :) :)

~Roomies~




So last weekend my roommate from Freshman year, Mary, got married! YAY!!  It was so fun and she looked absolutely beautiful!  Her dress was beautiful...I loved it.  It was also so fun to see old friends and roommates.  I had one roommate from my first semester of college named Katie and she only lived with us one semester but we totally bonded and I absolutely love her.  My favorite part was to listen to her tell stories..somethings just never change!  LOL We were also missing some roommates and we miss you guys.  Anyway congrats to Mary.  Good luck Megan with your last two weeks of prego!

Thursdays......



Okay so Thursdays can be pretty rough for my kids.  I work on Thursdays and they are only at the babysitters(they get babysat by a lady in my ward who we absolutely love--she doesn't have a day care but she takes my kids...love her) for three hours before Jared gets them but it is right during nap time for both of them.  So I call Jared at 5:50 and tell him I am on my way home and he says well both of the kids are asleep, Boston somehow got a bloody nose today, and so needless to say I walked in the door to these lovely pictures!  :)  
Boston seriously looks like he has been beaten!  LOL!  Poor kid--he is all boy and plays hard all day! Oh also very creepy that he sleeps with his eyes open.  He has done this since he was a baby!  My mom does this and it always scared me when I was little! Oh well!  Still pretty cute boy.   


And then look at poor Lillie!  She looks so uncomfy!  I love it!  Both of my kids have to have there 'blankie' and they rub it until they fall asleep!  They both also love to drink sippies and watch Disney movies.  Lillie loves Cinderella and Boston lately has asked for Robinhood and 101 Dalmations.

Forever and ever....




So a couple of weekends ago Jared's sister Jenni and her husband Eric were able to be sealed to there baby Matthew! They were sealed in the Bountiful Temple and the day turned out to be great. After he was sealed we wnet to Erics parents house and Eric was able to bless him. Yay!! Jenni and Eric have been married for five years and thus far have not been able to have a baby. Their adoption story is actually cool and it is such a testimony builder to me that God is in our lives, he never gives up, and he listens to our prayers! They had their adoption papers only in for a maybe three weeks before they got a call to be parents and if that wasn't cool enough....they had 24 hours to pick him up in Austin, Texas~! I called Jenni a couple hours after I heard the news and her and Eric were at Babies R Us buying cribs, bottles, binkis, and everything else. She said they had two carts full and they were ready to get a third!
Crazy! They went and got him the next day and as you can tell evereything went amazingly perfect and he has been such a blessing not only to Jenni and Eric but to all of us. Boston absolutely loves him! He loves when they fly in from Texas! He calls him Machu Picchu! LOL! Anyway we love them all so much and are way excited for them.

~Best Friends, Bowling, and Bruises~








Boston totally has a best friend and it is the cutest thing in the world.  In the morning I get him all bathed and dressed for the day and he automatically thinks he is going to Hunters house to play!   When I tell him no we are going to the grocery story...he gets mad.  However, it is easy to distract his attention with saying we will stop and get a powdered sucker and then all is well.  And  yes he asks me specifically for powdered suckers!  :)  So back to the best Friend thing!  Him and Hunter love to play with trucks, diggers, back hoes, swimming, run away from any adults present, and we tried something new last weekend...bowling!  Totally fun and they both loved it for about 3 frames and then Boston was totally done.  However, Hunter played all ten frames!  I was just dying at  how little the bowling shoes came.  Jared had to tie his laces up around his ankles.  
Boston has been so naughty lately and I am really struggling with him and I think everyone knows it.  I am constantly getting advice from anyone and everyone.  To an extent I like it on the other hand it is hard because I am a true believe in every child is different and what worked with one is not going to work with the other.  And I think he is really rowdy and probably bugs a lot of people but at the end of the day he is my little boy who I would never trade in a million years.  He is a very fun loving person and he thinks everyone is his grandpa.  When we walk into church or even in Maceys to our bagger.  He says hello grandpa!  He is very smart and keeps me and Jared on our toes!  I know that one day these terrible twos will pass.  As hard as he is I don't know what I would do with out his morning snuggles, his good night kisses, and his daily smile!  
Now where do I start with Lillie...poor girl she has been walking for a month and you think she would be good at it but she is my little drunk.  She is constantly with a new bruise on her head.  However the bruise on her forehead is from the neighbor boy pushing her in her stroller with out buckling it and she fell out on her head!   :(  I was not too happy about that.  She is still my sweet little angel who I am so grateful I have.  She can warm my heart without a moments notice.  Lately she has been getting into everything.  My new motto is...oh well!  Ha hA!

~Spring Break~



So my two nieces were so cute! They had spring break this week and they wanted to stay at Aunt Katies for spring break (they live in Spanish Fork so not all that cool to come to salem)! :) They are 15-Allie- and 10-Sydnie-! They have been so much fun. My kids absolutely love and adore them! They help with baths, cleaning, walks, playing, reading, getting juice, and whatever else the kids or I have needed! I love them both! I have one other niece, Brooklyn, on my side and she is in Georgia! We will have to catch her next time. I am so grateful for family and how close they are and that I am able to spend time with them!

Unfortunately true. I think...


I saw this on Robbie and Steph's blog so I thought I would give it a shot. Besides the dorky brown-guy pic that they assigned to me I think that they are pretty close. Any thoughts?


What's Your True Color?

Jared, your true color is Brown!
You're brown, a credible, stable color that's reminiscent of fine wood, rich leather, and wistful melancholy. Most likely, you're a logical, practical person ruled more by your head than your heart. With your inquisitive mind and insatiable curiosity, you're probably a great problem solver. And you always gather all of the facts before coming to a timely, informed decision. Easily intrigued, you're constantly finding new ways to challenge your mind, whether it's by reading the newspaper, playing a trivia game, or composing a piece of music. Brown is an impartial, neutral color, which means you tend to see the difference between fact and opinion easily and are open to many points of view. Trustworthy and steady, you really are a brown at heart.

What are you?
