Lost Tooth



Blake has had a loose tooth for a while now. Just tonight he got is loose enough to pull it out. He was quite proud of himself and anxious to get money from the Tooth Fairy!! Way to Go BLAKE!!

Mischievious.......


Look at them now!

Look how cute these 2 were are babies..

So I have 2, yes 2 very mischievous GIRLS!!! For one, they like to play with BABY POWDER and shake it out till their room is all dusty with powder. Yes, they did this today right before Tony was to get home. When Jaci came in to see me in the Kitchen, all I wanted to do was laugh because she was covered with powder and was white. I didn't laugh (Out loud) and I made them sit in time out while I cleaned up their room because they would not help me. Luckily there wasn't too much in there this time. (Yes, they have done this before when Tony was home watching them.) Marissa will get into anything and destroy anything that she can and also likes to touch EVERYTHING at the store which makes Jaci want to touch everything. It can be soooo annoying at times. They are 2 girls that can get a long just fine, but can also get mad at one another and make each other cry.

Marissa is doing better at eating. She will at least try a bit of what we are having which is better than before, but now I have a bigger problem.......JACI! She is a lot worse than Marissa ever was. I can't get that child to try anything new. It absolutely drives me crazy. I just hope that one day she will grow out of it and try new things. She has fits and cries and has tantrums all the time. I really don't know what to do and I am soo frustrated up to my head!! If any of you have any ideas....please pass them along!!! I love both my girls, but I never imagined this is what it would be like to raise kids. I always told myself that I would NEVER have a Picky eater. Blake eats everything and anything and is such a GREAT Child. When Marissa came along.....She was a challenge. Then when I had Jaci, I thought that she was easy, but as she grew older, the worse it became. Oh well. You can't have PERFECT Children, RIGHT?!

Christmas Tree




Yes we put up our Christmas Tree BEFORE Thanksgiving. We put it up on Tuesday and Thanksgiving was on Thursday. The kids really enjoyed helping and putting their own ornaments on. Yes, they have a couple that are THEIRS! Tony also helped me by putting the lights on for me! (that part I hate doing!). Here are some pictures of us!


This year, we had Thanksgiving with the "Green Side". We had it up at my grandma's church and most of everyone was there except for 2 of my siblings, and 2 cousins with their families. We pretty much had a full house. We had tons of food as normal. And lots and lots of Yummy Pies. Adults played Basketball, and games and the kids played on the stage and made up games and plays for themselves. We almost had a tragic event happen to my youngest child, but THANKS to my QUICK reflexes uncle for putting out his arm and leg into catching my child going down head first from the stage. What a blessing in disguise it was. She could have seriously been injured and we could have spent our Thanksgiving at Primary Children's!
Later that afternoon we headed over to Tony's parents house to have pie and to play games. One of our favorite is "Catch Phrase"!It you have not played it....DO! It's a way fun game, especially when you are playing with me at times and you make a complete fool out of yourself like I do all the Time~! My family loves playing with me!! Sorry I don't have any pictures. I forgot my camera and I was totally bummed.
That next morning at 1:30 AM, My 2 sisters and I headed up to Park City to do some Shopping. We just go for the outing. It was cold....but it was fun! We all got a couple of things and headed back home about 4:40 and got home about 5:20 AM. To tell you the truth, we really weren't all that tired, but that afternoon....when i went to work, i was way tired. It was good that we had a steady pace of patients or I would have died and went to sleep.

Hope you all had a FANTASTIC THANKSGIVING!!! For those who could not have joined us, we missed you greatly!!

Snow Storm




So this last Sunday, it snowed all night and all day. Being we have 9:00 AM church, as soon as we got done and out the door of church, the kids ask if they can go play in the snow when we get home. Blake and Marissa played for a long time while Tony did the driveway. This is actually the first year Marissa has really enjoyed it. They had tons of fun. Blake has always been an outside person. Weather it is snowing, raining, whatever.....he is outside till it is dark playing football, soccer, biking. He loves playing with our neighbor who is 6-8 years older than he!!! He is very nice to play with Blake. It's like having a Bi Brother relationship!. Here are the kids in the snow!

Happy Halloween 2010




Happy Halloween to everyone. Hope you are all safe and have fun Trick or Treating. Today, was the Farmington Elem. School Halloween Parade. It was fun to see all the kids dressed up as something. There were witches, super heros, Little Bo Peep (my fav.), princesses, fairies, babies, all sorts of costumes. They were all unique and different and fun to see. last year when Blake was in Kindergarten, he was sick for his Halloween Parade so he couldn't go, so this year was fun! here is a Picture of him and his friend!

for Pre-School that we do with Marissa, we went to Pack's Pumpkin Patch. This year was a little chilly. It has gotten cold fast. We had NO Fall. Here are some pict. of that!

Jr. jazz





Blake is Playing Jr. jazz and is loving every minute of it! He's not so aggressive out on the floor. He has shot the ball a couple of times, but has missed. he does pretty well dribbling. I only get to go to the games when they have them at 8:00 PM. because I work on Wed. and that is when they have the games. Wednesday's game......was funny and a little irritating to watch. The coach from the other team but was really calling anything and just letting the boys do pretty much anything. it was more like a Rugby game than anything. it's amazing how many boys will just run with the ball. It's a learning experience i suppose. Blake enjoys it and it is good for him!! here are some pictures that I took from the other night!

happy Birthday to Tony, Happy Birhtday to Tony....






Happy Birthday to my wonderful Husband. We have been married for almost 9 years. He is a Great Dad to our 3 kids and a wonderful Husband who works hard, reliable, trustworthy, responsible, and fun to be around. He turned 31 on Tues the 26th. I surprised him by going down to his work and taking him to lunch. That evening we got Little Caesars and ate Pizza then took our kids to get Pumpkins. It was a fun night. The day before, my mom made dinner for us and we ate dinner for my hubby's Birthday up at my moms and had Brownie all a mode. It was FANTASTIC and YUMMY!! Thanks Family for doing that~ We appreciate it!

Happy Birthday Babe, I love you!!
