quick update

first off i cant believe feb is pretty much half way over, crazy....

my computer has a million viruses on it, so I just need to find some where to take it and get it fixed.

zach has been working 70 hrs a weeks for the past few weeks, he is such a hard worker , and i am very blessed to have him as a husbad. on Feb 21st it will be our 8 yr anniveersary, thats right 8 yrs. we are going to go on a little get away to  st. george, it will be alot of fun and a much needed break.

ryden was in the hospital for 4 days at the beginning of January, it was awful, he got thousand and thousands of cold sores/fever blisters on his tongue, roof of his mouth, throuth, cheeks and lips, he was in alot of pain and discomfort, i heard cold sores hurt i have never had one but i couldnt imagine a thousand. he was really dehydrated, so he needed iv treatment and pain meds, the numbing stuff they would give him was for chemo patients... timpanogas was awesomewe couldnt have been in better care... im happy to report all of his sores are gone and he is doing well.

saige is trucking along in kindergarten, she is above her classmates in reading, she is the best mother hen to her brother.. iam so proud of her and how beautiful she is..

iam so ready for warm weather, im so sick of the kids getting colds and coughs.

im thankful for everyhting that we have...

sorry no pictures, i have no idea how to get them off of my phone.

until next time1

No Time..

I know I know, I have been a huge slacker at updating my blog, its been over a month, I cant believe it. the kids have been keeping my busy, I have been helping in Saiges class and tending my niece a few times a week.

Zach is FINALLY home for good, it was been so nice having him come home every single night, its been an adjustement on the whole family having is all together again, but we couldnt be happier having daddy home, he is such a great guy, Iam truly blessed to have him in my life.

Every year the day after Thanksgiving we go to FishLake and cut down our christmas tree, this year it was tuff, there was A TON of snow, so we got what we got, we couldnt be to picky, its in blue again this year, I really only wanted white lights on it because I knew Ryden would be into my tree and he has, he has broken every single glass ball, he likes the way they sound as they hit the floor and shatter..

Saige lost her first tooth this sunday December 5th, it was such a bittersweet day, I was so sad for me because she is growing up way to fast, but I was so happy for her because she was so happy.. I love this little girl with everything that I have... she got her first report card last week as well and she is doing really well in school, I knew she would but it was good to see on paper as well. she is turning 6 on the 19th and we are going to have a friend birthday party for her, she is super excited.

Ryden is being his cute self, he is talking really really well, and he just loves it that his daddy comes home every night, he also knows how to drive the snowmobile all by himself, Zach of course was on the snowmobile with him, but Ryden really wouldnt let Zach hold onto the the handle bars or gas, he did really good. he is still into guns, scares the crap out of me, so we have locks on Zachs gun cabinet, you can never be to careful, even though the guns are not loaded you just never know.

I cant believe christmas will be here in 19 days crazy!!!

A few more pictures

Halloween.

We had so much fun this year, despite the rain and cold, Saige was the cutest Catarina out there and Ryden was the cutest Iron man.

We went to my parents house for a Halloween party and some trick or treating, and we also went to Zachs parents house as well so we could show off our adorable kids..

Ryden got scared from the older kids and there costumes, it was pretty sad how freaked out he got, he did not like masks, so he only put on his Iron mask once for a picture and that was it.

Saige was way into trick or treating again this year, she also had a school program on friday where she got to wear her costume and she sang a cute song, after she had a class room party that I got to help with :) she is so cute and big..

I dont have many pictures because my camera died and the charger is missing, so if any one knows of a place that I can get a charger for my cannon camera that would be great. I hope every one had a fun and safe Halloween weekend..

I honestly love every single picture she took, she did an awesome job, and it was a fun surprise to find all these cute pictures in my camers.. I love you Saige.

Journal Jar.

I went to enrichment the other week, first time I think in over a year, and it was about Journal Jars, we each got a journal with 164 pieces of paper, each paper has something on it that you can write about in your journals, what a great idea, so Im going to write down on here, since this is my journal and im starting tonight, so once a week for a year I will be writing about something new, im really excited about it...

Entry 1: describe your wedding dress, bridesmaide dresses.

I was the first kid out of my sisters to get married, so we had no idea what we were doing, but it did turn out beautiful, everything I ever imagined and more. so we went in Alyssa's bridal the very first store, and I saw this dress on a manican (sp) and fell in love, had it in my size and I tried it on and it was love at first sight seriously, it fit perfect, it was 2 pieces it had a top with a ton of diamonds and beading all over it you had to tie it up like a shoe in the back, and then the skirt  was so full and big, and it had a detachable bow, I looked and felt like a princess.

The bridesmaid dresses were a little hard to find, my colors were maroon and charcoal, luckily after searching and searching we found the perfect dresses, the maid of honor wore  maroon and the bridesmaids wore charcoal, they were empire waste and the tops around the busts had beads and then the dress just flowed, they had a shall to go around them, because they were spaghetti strapped and it was Feb 21st so kind of cold. all the girls looked beautiful.

I married the perfect guy for me, he is my hero and best friend, Im so thankful he is mine for eternity.

Ryden is TWO!!!

My baby boy turned 2 Sept 30th. it is always such a bittersweet day for me, I love/hate birthdays, I love them because it was the day my babies came to this earth and I hate them because they are growing up so dang fast.  On their birthdays I want it to be the most special day ever for them, we shower them with love and gifts.. this year Zach was out of town working, so I took the kids to Thanksgiving Point farm, Ryden loved it, we stayed there for 1 1/2 hrs and you could easily walk through there in less then 30 min, Im glad he enjoyed it.
Rydens Stats:
26lbs
34 in I honestly believe he is taller at his 18 month he was  33 1/2 so I think they measured him wrong, oh well. he is a big boy and I cant get enough of him.
he is talking sooo soo much now, he says alot of words,
some of the words he says: Mine, k, binkie, juice, blankie, movie, bike. say(saige)

Here is some pictures of his special day..
