New Puppy

So this weekend we decided to get a puppy. After much discussion Matt stated that he thought it would help him become more ready to have a baby..whether or not I believe that is another thing but anything that might help is worth a try, right? Her name is Sadi she is a registered black lab and someday she would be good to breed if we decide that is another endeavor we want to try. She is very smart and after a couple of days is pretty good at the potty training. She only wines when she needs to go out and right before she goes outside for bed. We are going to be taking her to some classes to help us train her to speak, sit, shake, and other fun obedience stuff. We will continue to post pics as she grows. The second pic he is sleeping I promise. Come on Brit you have to admit that he is really cute.

The new grill

So this weekend I finally caved and we bought Matt a new grill. He was so thrilled we spent a couple hours comparing and choosing his favorite one because of that he had to do homework so I put it together with a few helps from Matt. Then we got to spend some time with Nick and Brit which we always enjoy and can't get enough of. Carson was helping Brit make rolls and wanted his pic taken and Kaylee well we just happen to get this pick at the right time.

So many busy weekends...a moment away

So Matt and I decided with spring semester over and summer starting this week that we needed a couple nights away. We decided to go to Logan to the Anniversary Inn because it is our favorite we always stay in a new room and this room was amazing we may just stay in it next time. Matt was so funny if he knew I was posting this he would kill me but he never reads it so I think I'm safe. The room is called Joanie's Diner and has a 1950's theme with jukebox and all. They bought a third home and added new rooms you should check them out. But anyways after our couple nights away and relaxing we headed to boise to see our new neice blessed. We had a great time with the fam and hopefully in due time we will have a little one to bless ourselves.

The fam and the new editions

So this weekend was also a rare chance for a family pic. Unfortunately Nic'c man was off playin baseball so he missed out but here we all our I can't believe how quickly our size has increased but I guess with an amazing family like I have and cute for that matter it was bound to happen. Mom and dad are still surviving Vegas and are actually enjoying it the kids are trying to make mom computer literate so she will start her own blog but we will see. She also got a dog which will quickly become part of the family. My dad is amazing as always loving his job and less yard work. Kim and Ez are just enjoying finishing school for the semester and starting to do the touch ups on their new condo they bought a couple of months ago. Nic and Kyle(the soon to be Grahams) have found an apartment kyle will live there til they get married and nic will live in vegas and try to earn some money before becoming newlywed poor. Kyle finishes baseball this week and nic will play volleyball this fall to keep her scholarship. Nate is getting more boy like everyday while he plays baseball and is doing very well at the piano. Maddi just got baptized and is starting to care about having her hair done and wearing the right clothes. Watch out mom and dad she may just give you a run for your money. As for Matt and I Matt will be returing to school May 13 for the summer with 21 credits in hopes of finishing next spring so we can start our family adopted, foster, or otherwise. Matt will continue t amaze me and work over forty hours and week and still have time for his sweetheart. He is my hero. I will continue to work with the babies I love and looking for a job with better hours.

Maddi is 8!!!

Well as this weekend went Maddi was able to get baptized it was alot of fun to have the family together I think I took it for granted when we lived so close. We are so proud of you Maddi and the choice you made to be baptized.

Graduation

Well so graduation came and went without anything horrible occuring it was a very busy weekend with the wedding shower and maddi being baptized(more to come with that) I have mixed feelings about graduating like what now and I am definitely old. I graduated with my bachelors in Science/nursing and a minor in finance. Thanks for all of my family that made the trip. I looked up just before the ceremony started to see some of the people I love the most and that made it that much more special. My wonderful husband has been so supportive and brought beautiful flowers to surprise me with. Thanks honey I love you more than anything in this world! But anyways pics speak louder than words so here it goes.

Life isn't so bad

Hello friends,

Well first off thanks for all of your advice and help with my silly fear. I am doing much better and although I am not completely free of the anxiety I feel like I am beginning to understand that many things in life are alot more important than how much you weigh and what size you wear. So this last week I have really struggled we have had some babies at the hospital that are ready to go home but their parents are less than adequate to care for them. Drugs, age, priorities, and other such stuff has clouded their judgement and I have been left to question whether or not god really exists and if he does why he doesn't protect the innocent little spirits that he send on a daily occurance. I found this story today that I think you should read.
