More pictures.....here we come!

Here are some more pictures of our Trip. On our way up to Arches....there was a steep rock to climb up....it was forever, also, we saw a deer and some lizards!!

MOAB....Here we came!!!!

Yes, we went to Moab and back. It was a fun get a way from the kiddos, but I did miss them. We went Sunday-Tuesday (May 3-5th). Tony and I had a blast. We got there Sunday afternoon. That afternoon we went on a Hummer Safari tour through some wicked bumps that about freaked me out and I wasn't sure if I was going to make out alive...but to say I did. It did turn out really fun and it was fun to do that. A little pricy....but fun. That night before dark, we went on a small hike and that was fun. Monday we hiked all day. We hiked Double O and Arches. They took about 2 hrs each. And my legs are still hurting from hiking those 2. We did them in the same day right after each other, but this time....I have to say it was breezy so that was nice...and I was not 7 mos pregnant this time! So it was a better hiking experience this time. (Yes, last time I was 7 mos pregnant with Blake about them same time too). Then that night we went to dinner and walked around town where I got a hat and some capri's and Tony got him some new hiking boots. On Tuesday we did a guided hike through Firery Canyon. That was pretty cool but our guide..... I swear was about 80 yrs old, but we had to stop every so hundred yards, so it took forever (3 hrs), which if you just hiked it, you could probably get it done in 2 hrs or less. It had some difficult rocks to climb over and go through some pretty narrow rock walls! It was pretty cool. Then we just came home since we had already done everything that we wanted to do! It was great weekend. I recommend NOT to take kids with you if you go or wait till they are older to take on a hike! and also....go in April or the 1st of May when It is not so HOT!!! Here are a few pictures to share from it!

MY BIRTHDAY!!

I had a BIRTHDAY, SHOUT "HORRAY"!! Can you all guess how "OLD" I am......well I turned 27 this year!! We had a great day! Tony ended taking the day off and we lounged around in the morning and got ready fed the kids lunch and then took them to the Hill Air Force base Museum. The kids loved it! It is so fun to see them, especially Marissa. She kept saying. "look at this one, look at this one!". It was cute!! She is fascinated with airplanes and helicopters. She loves to look at them and see them fly, especially on my dad's computer!! She cracks me up! We had a great day. Later that evening we went to Tucano's at the Gateway! (Brazilian place). It is way good! FYI: If you join their Birthday club.. they send you a free meal the month of your birthday that you can use! It was fun, then I bought me a shirt at Downeast that I have been wanting!! It was a fun night, so i want to thank my kids and hubby for a wonderful and fulfilling day to spend with them! My kids are growing up fast and i love them so much! They are wonderful and my husband is a great husband and works hard and is a good man! So thanks!! Also thanks to Tony's family and my family for helping out with my kids and for dinner! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Blake and Preschool Day's

Blake has had a blast being in Preschool this year! I think it has helped him to get to know more friends and have a fun and exciting year before Kindergarten! He has learned a lot and has floored me with all the things that he says! He comes up with some pretty imaginary things to say and he has an imagination that you wouldn't believe. he also remembers a lot of stuff that has happened in the past! He is one smart boy! He knows how to write his name, he colors and actually stays in the lines, he is getting there to spell words, He love playing counting games with his dad, he knows all the primary songs!! He is a GOOD kid! We love him very much! For Preschool this week, they sent home a "Genius Bag" that they had to make something out of all the odds and ends that they had in a bag, so Blake wanted to make a Dinosaur (off all things), so before Tony left on his Business trip the other weekend I had him sit down with Blake and help him make a Dinosaur and have some Daddy and son time! They mads a cool looking Dinosaur, but after I kind of figured Blake should have done it all by himself....Oh well!!! He still had fun with his dad putting it together!! Today in Preschool their teachers painted clown faces on them! He loved it!! We love you Blake! Your a good kid and we are glad that you are in our FAMILY!!

So we just got down refinancing our home!! 4.75%!! YAAAAA!! Our payment went down like 150.00 so it was worth it! We also took out some money so we could re-do our kitchen and bathroom, so I am excited for that! We are doing Alder cabinets and a granite counter top with the roughed edge! I am way excited for that!! It should be done in about 5 or so weeks!!

Here are some pictures of Blake!

Pictures

Here are some pictures of my kids that I took today! It is suppose to 67 degrees today and the rest of the week through Thursday it is suppose to be in the 70's, so I am pretty excited for the warm weather and then again this weekend.....it is going to be crapy and in the 40's and 50's. Hopefully we can go to the park and get some outside time this week! We have been doing good! Tony is out of town again. Back in NJ! He has been traveling a lot lately, and will be traveling more because of the Layoffs at his work with all the trainers. More frequent flyer miles I guess!! We are getting use to it. For my Birthday we are going to be going to St. George so it will be a good vacation for a few days without the kids!

Here are the "CUTE" Pictures of the kids!
I love Dressing the girls up! The dress that Jaci is wearing, I got if from my "favorite" cousin! Thanks Jamie! and the dress that Marissa is wearing is from my good neighbor! She has been giving me all of her girl clothes and they are way cute for Marissa!

Court Day...Finally here.....the verdict!

Today, I attend court for my ticket I got that was "failure to yield to an emergency vehicle". (stupidest ticket written ever). Anyways....before we went, we drove past the place where the officer gave me the ticket and it was at 350 So. and main in Kaysville (By Kays. Jr and DHS). Well the officer put down it was at 700 so. and main, but that was wrong. Anayways... 2 hrs later after sitting there and listening to everyone else, I finally got to talk to the District Att. and i summarized what happened and he told me he was just going to dismiss it and asked if that was fine with me and I said YES! So when I stood before the Judge, they dismissed it and I didn't have to pay the $80.00 on my ticket. I was glad that I didn't pay it and just went and fought it. It was a pain to go twice but in the long run....it was worth it! Never again will I ever get another ticket. SO everyone...watch your back and don't get a ticket.....because it is not worth it! Be careful and drive slowly and be smart!!
