nothing much going on....

I have been working a few extra shifts in pediatrics, going to swim lessons with my kids, playing with them. Tony has been working hard with his job. he is still very busy with what he does. He has a few more trips that he will be going on in the next couple of months. He still has time to go hunting, camping and golfing though! We are seeing and hearing less of the SWINE FLU in our office, but it is still out there and you can still get it. I just tell my patients to stay away from sick people and wash your hands constantly and keep your house clean and sanitized, and that is the best you can do! I am sure that I have been contaminated with it and so has my husband, but we are still very healthy and so are our kids!
Swimming lessons is almost over. My kids have really enjoyed it. Blake is in a Pre-school 2 class and has learned to go under water and do a bunch of things! He is amazing and a real natural with it! Marissa is loving it. On her 2nd day, she was holding onto the side and I guess let go and went under the water and she told me how scary it was for the rest of the day. "mom, i go under water, and it was scary". I felt bad for her cause I wanted her to have a good experience and not be afraid of the water, but the next day she went right in and she has been fine ever since! Jaci, I do a mommy and me class with her and her favorite part is jumping off the side of the pool and jumping into me. She also likes to do all the songs that we do! Today her favorite was kicking her legs and arms, she thought it was great fun!! She is learning a little.
A couple of nights ago we had a campfire in my grandparents back yard and had a neighbor come over with their cute kids. We roasted hot dogs and s'mores and the kids played while us adults talked! It was fun!
Other than that.....On the 4th we will go to the Kaysville Parade (the greatest one of all, with candy and a waterfight in the end), with going to my grandma's sisters house to swim and have hot dogs and hamburgers, then we will go with tony's family to see the fireworks at DHS!!! Hopefully this year will be better than last!! Hope you all have a wonderful 4th of July!

Little Sister.....Got married!









My little sister got married on Thursday the 4th of June. It was such an amazing day! All of us all together in the sealing room with her! It's an amazing feeling you feel when you have your whole family there all together!! it was fun! We figured: there are 8 years between Me (the oldest) and my younger sister, Paige (the youngest) and we all got married within 8 years and we all got married in order. I got Married in 2001, Miq in 2003, Calt in 2006, Challae in 2007 and Paige in 2009. So we are all married now and now my parents are empty nesters before they are 50! How incredible is that! It's fun now that we are all married, but Paige is still the odd one out, she is the only one that got married in the Summer time, the rest of us got married in Dec. within a week of each other, all our anniversaries!! Its fun!! We are happy for Paige and Taylor!
Here are some pictures of their reception!

ALL DONE!!






We finally have our bathroom and kitchen all done! It is nice to have a kitchen sink that works now and also a dishwasher. We have been using paper everything and if we use other than that, we wash in the bathtub! It's been fun, let me tell ya!! I am way excited that I have it all done. It looks very nice and I am very pleased with it all! I am definately glad that we did it! I now have more cupboard space and more room to put things, not as much counter space....but Our kitchen looks bigger because we took out our bar and we have a nice new table that expands to 8 people, but we just have it for 6 now! I love it!! I have been spoiled a little, but it is nice. We just have to do the backsplash now and paint a couple more doors and get 2 more doors for our hallway! I tell you...new panel doors make all the difference in the world to your house! It makes it look so much nicer! It's fun!!
Here are some pic's of it all. (for all those who are wondering where we got it from, it's a place in Springville called HQ Cabinets!). Nice place with good quality cabinets and whatever else you need for a redo!)
