ITS A.........................

GIRL!!

And we are so excited! We had a normal Dr.'s appointment on the 17th and she couldn't figure it out. She said if she had to guess she would guess a girl because she thought she saw three lines, then she paused and said......Or those could be toes:-D We had some anxious family members in Vegas so they told us about a clinic in SLC that spends lots of time with you and are really good at finding out the sex. So we were scheduled for an appointment for a gender determination ultrasound. At first "it" was being a little stink and everything we did "it" would move its little bum farther and farther back until wham, her little bum is facing at us and her little legs were open:-D And it definitely looked like a little girl, there is a possibilty that it can change since I am only 16 weeks but the tech seemed pretty sure. We are both so happy and excited! I couldn't believe what I saw on the ultrasound pictures, she was just moving all over, lounging all comfortably...We love her so much already its crazy! Here are my two favorite pictures that we got while we were there!

It must be comfortable in there! She is just lounging:-D

3 YeArS oF wEdDeD bLiSs!

On July 8th the hubs and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary! I still can't believe it has been 3 years! It has just flown by and it really has been great. Of course there are the ups and downs of marriage and living with the opposite sex, but through it all we've made it and are closer than we have ever been. I am pretty sure I caught the best fish in the sea, and I am so lucky! He is so supportive, loving, and does much more than I do around the house and the yard! Ecspecially lately since I have been sick he basically has picked up all the chores and does them without a complaint and smiles the whole time! He is the best. He works so hard at his job to provide us with such a nice life. So basically he is the whole package and then some:-D

We were able to celebrate our anniversary camping in our new trailer! It was so much fun! We started in Idaho camping with my family and then headed to Bear Lake. It was so much fun and I had forgotten how beautiful Bear Lake was. We rode four wheelers, swam, went to Minnetonka Cave, went to an ice cave, had some yummy dinners, spent time with the Capron's and Shepherd's,played games, roasted marshmallows, and just spent time together. One of the highlights of the trip was we went to the Pickleville Playhouse and saw The Hanging of El Bandito. Ok, so first off my husband doesn not really like plays, I am pretty sure he agreed to this because I love plays however this play was HILARIOUS! He laughed harder than I did and it was the best play I have seen in a long time! Seriously if you get a chance to get down there check it out! It was awesome! I didn't take my camera with me very much and only got a few pictures. But we had a blast and we hope to get some more camping in! We loved it even our little Shiloh had a great time!!

We're cooking up.......

A BUN IN THE OVEN!:-D

We are happy to announce that we are expecting our first little one! I am 12weeks along and due on January 30, 2010! We couldn't be more happy, excited and nervous all at the same time! Everything is going good, I have been sick but that is part of the process....I do hear that it is worth it in the end so I am just plugging along!;-D We should be able to find out at our next appointment on August 17 what we are having. We both do not care what we are having and are just so excited to find out so we can go shopping for the little one!

Two Years Ago.........

Two years ago on July 7 we lost this beautiful girl! She was such an amazing person with an amazing personality and made everyone smile everywhere she went. I am so thankful for the gospel that helps get me through the toughest of days because I know one day I will get so see her smiling face and hear her laugh again. I know she is the happiest she has ever been because I can feel her happiness whenever I think about her or whenever I start to get down and sad that she is gone. I love this girl and was so priveleged to know her and be her best friend. I love you Beana! And can't wait until the day I get to see you again!

Happy 26th Birthday to the Man I Love!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THIS SEXY MAN:-D

Even if you are an old fart now, I still LOVE YOU! I hope you have a great birthday because you are very deserving of the best! Thank you for all you do for me and for being such an amazingly wonderful and supportive husband! I am excited that we get to spend the weekend together celebrating your birthday with the family. I love you very much!

How much would this grocery bill cost YOU?

This bill would cost you around 36.01, if your an Albertson's Preferred card holder GREAT DEAL right!?!? Well as good of a deal as most people think this is......I got all of this for a whopping $5.66! I KNOW RIGHT!! This bill would have been around $60-65 if you didn't have an Albies card! This time I really felt like I was robbing the store! The sweet cashier just kept scanning in those coupons and I just kept watching my total go down down and down! So 25 items for $5.66 ahhh now thats saving money! The receipt bodly states that I saved $63.86 today! AWESOME! I am so happy that I am done with school, and I have started this up again because it saves so much money and your food storage starts building up so you don't always have to run to the grocery store you can just shop out of your pantry! I am so thankful to my two friends Tanya and Nicole who got me into this! It helps us out a ton! If any of you want information....let me know, I said this before and just didn't do anything but REALLY I want to help you save money! So let me know! Now my bragging is done have a great night!

A DAY FOR BRIGGS!

My friend Tanya is very good friends with this family and is trying to get the word out so they can have a really big turnout for this fundraiser and raise alot of money for 3 year old Briggs. Briggs father is a country singer and has helped many many other children by having benefit concerts in their behalf to raise money to help them with their medical situations, now the family is going through this hard time and its time for people to pay it forward and help them out. If you would like to help out, please do!:-D I am running the 5K and donating a massage gift basket for the silent auction. If you want to run or have something you or a business would like to donate for the silent auction let me know and I will get it to my friend who is in charge of the auction. Any help would be appreciated or any donations. All money earned goes to this sweet little three year old boy who has been in Primary Children's for over 6 months. Please pass on the word so we can all help this little guy and his family out. Thanks!
