Breakin' The Law!!!!

My good friend Melanie has been missing in action for the last month. Not because she wants to be but because she is the cheer coach for the High School and they have been crunching for State!!! Well State is done and now we have her back!!! YEAHHHH!!
They got 2nd place and feel it was a good competition. they worked hard and preformed better than ever. Tye and I decided to give her a little recognition............
It's just a little shoe polish and paper fans!!!
She is one "FAN" tastic coach!!!
It was about 10 degrees outside so the shoe polish kept freezing!! It was very funny. So our vandalism is a bit lumpy!! The desired look was accomplished and we had a blast!!!
Good Job Melanie!!!

Play Date!

Emi is the only girl in our neighborhood her age..... We thought. We recently figured out that my friend Heidi's little girl Gwenney is younger but will be in the same grade. So we started play dates. It was fun for all and good to see Emily learn to share.... She is working on it!!! Hopefully a great friendship will come of this... Not to mention some missionary work!! Hee hee!
The ball less ball pit... Great Fun!


Miss Gwenney


Heidi and Nicki, Gwenney is trying to take my picture!! She is a cutie!!!

Happy Happy Birthday Baby!!!

This past week we celebrated Brian's Birthday! He is a very private guy sooo he asked me not to put his picture up. However I got some other pics I think you will like.....

Some of you know that we are going to Mexico next month for a second honey moon and to celebrate our 13 th year of wedded BLISS!! So of course I have to go on a diet!!!! I have been real good and have lost about 12 lbs. I feel great. How ever Brian being the awesome husband that he is, said I don't want a cake and ice cream for my birthday it will be too hard for you. Well yes, I love cake but I am not letting his Birthday go un celebrated!!! So I made him a Birthday Cake of sorts. One that I knew would not be a problem for me, But he, and the kids would LOVE!!!





I am not a fan of Hostess Cup Cakes!! So here we are.... BIRTHDAY MAGIC!!!! TAAAA DAAAA! He liked it and was happy to have some cake. :)



Every Birthday the birthday person gets what ever they want for dinner. Brian always picks steak and shrimp. This year he wanted the shrimp baked. so I found a recipe on line for breaded baked shrimp and tried it. I hate shrimp sooooo I didn't eat it. They snarrfffed it so it must have been good.




Perfectly grilled Rib Eye steak , with shrimp and green beans. He was a happy boy!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!!!!
I LOVE YOU!!!

JEALOUS!!!!!

So I am usually not the jealous type, however.........


Tye and Alana went to the MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice concert in Orem!!!! Hold up they didn't just go.... They were front row!!!! Alana danced on stage with both of them!!! ARRRRRGHH!!! I wanted to go soooo bad, but I just spent a fortune at the hospital with my stones and couldn't justify the expense. They had soooo much fun!! These are the pics they sent me. I wish I could put the voicemail on here of Ice singing Ice,Ice Baby!!! MAN!!!!


I am glad they had a great time though!! Maybe I can make the next concert!!!

I guess after Tye took this pic Vanilla came over and talked to them!!!

Just waiting for the party to start!!!!

Kitty Cats and Kidney Stones

Sooo it has been a while.... Sorry! I do have a good story to tell you thou..
In December we got a kitten. Her name is Doctor. She is the sweetest, cutest cuddliest kitten ever. She is always purring and just sweet. Well we soon discovered that she is not a kitten but a full grown cat!!! she is the size of a 5 month old kitten but she is about 1 year old. Just amazing . Every cat we have ever had has been growth challenged. Oh well we just love her, And Pepper likes her too. They keep each other warm in the cold and they play.
Well, Doctor has gotten into the habit of crawling up under the hood of our cars to get warm when ever we come home. It hasn't been a problem until recently when we found her under my friends hood 3 days after they had visited!! CRAZY CAT!!!
This week I noticed on Tuesday that I hadn't seen her for while... hmmm? weird.....So I go on with my day cleaning and stuff. Wednesday morning I am headed out the door to go to the District Spelling Bee to watch Kenna and still no Doctor????? I decided I would search for her later that day. So when I got home later that day I looked in all her haunts and hiding places. No Doctor. Then my phone rings... It is Tye. "Is your cat missing again?" "YES!!! is she there?" Tye says that she is but that she has been hurt or attacked cause she won't walk.. I feel horrible. So I go to get her.. WOW does she stink!!!! and she is mangled. I keep looking at Doctor and trying to asses the damage... Her fur is burnt, she smells like burnt rubber and she has huge bald spots, but still purring!!! HMMMMM? I don't think she was attacked I think she got caught in somebodies hood and got ripped up!!! dumb cat! I feel horrible for her but what can I do??? She is eating and drinking still so I think she will recover. this morning Parker found her under my car!! she must be slow in the head too!!!


Thursday morning at 1:00 A.M. I woke up in total pain! It was horrible I tried to be quiet so I didn't wake Brian. He works sooo hard, I know he needs his sleep. And I knew what I was feeling.... KIDNEY STONES!!!!!!............ AHHHH! no not now!
I had an episode about 5 months ago and knew what I was in for so I hoped it would pass in 6 hours like the last one. NOPE!! I finally had to wake Brian up. He rubbed my back and was sooo sweet to me. What a good guy I have!!! anyways being the overly cheap person I am decided I can last until 8 a.m. to go to the doctor. I am NOT going to the ER. So I just laid there. It was like contractions with no break. I had 3 babies 2 with out any drugs I can handle this. MAN did it HURT!!!!! 8 a.m. came and we left for the doctor..
3 hours, a full blood panel,a pregnancy test,a urine panel, and a CAT scan later I was home with my Lortab and in my bed. I had a 3mm stone making its way through.. I can happily report now that I am at 97% the next day. I feel like someone has been punching me in the kidneys but that's O.K. I can handle that!!! :) I am off to get the ward party going!!! Can't stop now.

3 MM kidney stone== pain in the back
Full lab run up== thousands of dollars
bottle of Lortab==6 bucks
Awesome husband=== PRICELESS!!!

Little mommy

It is funny to me, the things we take for granted and tend not to notice. I know that children are very observant, that they see way more than we realize, and that they learn by example. Yesterday, I was cleaning my house. I was running around trying to get it done so that I could sit down and read, I came around the corner and this is what I found....... Soooo stinkin' cute.

Emi was trying to put the swimming diaper on her doll then I noticed the doll next to her. All diapered and ready to go!!
She is sooo funny. It is weird to have a girly girl in our house. My days are full of Barbie movies and dolls. I am not sure how to do the girly girl thing so I guess I will just go with the flow.....Still, for a 2 year old I am amazed every day at her.

Kenna never did these things it was all about bugs and science. Dress up???? No way!! And Emi is good she even gets the boys into it!!!! :)
MAN, I love my kids!! What a great gift we are given. I just hope I don't screw them up.....
