Grandpa Andy and Mima

We went to visit Mima and Grandpa Andy, the kids love it there they get lots of attention and treats not to mention they live in the "secret garden" so they love to wonder around and explore...

I love the toys that Mima has they are the simple toys that make kids use their imaginations and do not require batteries...

Happy Birthday to ME....

So it was my Birthday and I like to think of it as a big deal...yes even though I am turning 26 I just want everything to go smooth and just right for that one day...So the started out just any other day however I knew that Ryan had something planned for me just not sure when, so I went to lunch with my Mom, Grandma Kay and my Kidos since Ryan had to work until 7 I figured we would have dinner plans so I ate an early lunch so I would be hungry enough for dinner....well we went to Ryan's parents house so we could drop off the kids so we could make our reservations. When I walked in Ryan's sister had made her stuffed manicotti which is fantastic so it made me super hungry and anxious for dinner anyways we left to dinner and Ryan tell me to guess where we are going and starts driving into Ogden so I think Prairie Schooner because I HATE HATE the timbermine so then he tell me nope the Timbermine!!! Yuck I thought does this man not even know me? so I try not to act mad which I can not do well, then the kicker Ryan says I forgot my wallet...Oh my heck now I have to pay for my own dinner so I go for my wallet and it is not in my purse and I think that I have been robbed! so we turn around and head home to get my wallet I just wanted to go to bed by now Ryan has really done it and completely ruined my birthday....I hold it all in until 2 blocks from my house and I couldn't fight back my emotions and I started to cry and then Ryan tries to say sorry and I just ignored him and jumped out of the car and head inside our house....Then to my surprise I open my back gate and there was music playing and candles lite everywhere...Oh how dumb did I feel so then I cried so more and he had it all planned that his sister would cook that dinner which I love, steel my wallet and give my a fantastic surprise..What a guy huh? Thank you babe you are the best and I love you...

Surprise!!!

WOW..my husband is so amazing! I thought that we were headed to Grey Cliffs to eat dinner with Ryan's parents...But I was sure suprised to walk into this...A group of family and friends!!! I honestly had NO idea about the surprise everyone did so great...Thanks Babe your the Best!!

Ryan and I about to enjoy a Fantastic dinner...


Chele,Me and Chan

Wahooo!!!

So after 4 very long years I did it! I graduated from college...I never thought that I would attend college let alone graduate with my bachelors Degree...There are so many people that have contributed to my success along the way...If it weren't for Davin in the beginning I would still be working 3 jobs just to pay the bills he is the reason I decided to start. Two years into it all I lost motivation and wanted to give up but my husband and our newest addition Brylee gave me the will to stick it out, however without the people who watched my kidos while I worked and went to school I would have never made it through so thank you...Mom and Dad,Grandma Kay, Erin "Bear", Justin and Kellie!



This was the entertainment Some crazy man band that sang everything acapella they were good but sometimes thay were embarrassing...





Thanks to everyone who made it to my graduation what a great ride and life changing experience it was..

Kids K

My Big sister Mjika took part in the Ogden Marathon she did awesome I think that she finished right around 5hr 14min "I think" It was really neat to see her cross the finish like we were all so very proud for her...Great job Mjik! Davin decided to sign up for the Kids K which was during the Ogden Marathon...It was just about 1 mile, so I volunteered Ryan to run it with him...hahaha! Well needless to say they both finished the race and did it right around 10 min...I was sure glad that Davin was there to motivate Ryan...I'm wasn't sure he would make it...

OOOOH...Scary Cows

So ever since Brylee watched Jurassic Park the movie she has been scared of cows she calls them "scary cows". It's hilarious! so we decided to take her down to see the cows at Justin's (Ryan's Dad) farm where they have tons of cows and right now they all have babies so it was fun to see all the little ones with their moms.

Grandpa, Davin and Brylee just getting the ranger ready to go

We all piled in the ranger and headed down to the farm. Brylee was so excited to see the cows...until we got there and then she was not so sure about the whole idea. She kept saying "go away cows go away".

....and were off Davin holds on to Brylee super tight...Grandpa is a crazy driver...

Grandpa Ron opens the gates on horse back so we can drive on through...

Here is the reason that we came down here for....BABY COWS!!!

The cows were not afraid to come right up to the ranger and see what we were all about. We had so much fun seeing the cows and I think that Brylee overcame her fears....
