Major Bummer

Last Wednesday I was playing in my first softball game when I twisted my knee. It kind of hurt but I didn't think nothing of it. Then the second game that night I was running and it popped! That night it was really swollen and hard to walk. Well I decided I better get it checked because coed softball and Alaska are right around the corner. I went to the dr today and I kind of knew going into it that it wasn't good but had high hopes also. They twisted it around and couldn't find an end to my ACL, so they took some xrays. Ya I tore my ACL ligament again and have to have surgery in three weeks. Can someone just shoot me now. How on earth can I go through knee surgery again especially mastering crutches and a baby. Ya right. Anyways I thought I would vent a little because I just cry other wise.

Girls Night!

My niece Amber is staying with for two weeks so I decided we needed to have some fun. So I called Christy and asked her if her, Jessie and her niece Payton wanted to come over and have a gilrs night of doing nails, makeup and hair. She said that they would love to. Then that day I went to the park with Jessica and invited them to so they decided to come also.

We started by doing everyones nails. Chyanne took the liberty of painting me and Christy's finger nails and Rhielyn did Jessica's. You would have thought they had died and gone to heaven. Here is a picture I bet you can't pick them out! (Jessica and Rhielyn left before we took these pictures.)

After we were done with nails it was getting late but the girls insisted we needed to do our makeup. We didn't get pictures of that. Then it was on to the hair. I did Chyanne's, Christy did Jessie's and Amber's, Jessie did mine, Amber did Christy's and Chyanne did Payten's as she hid behind the door so nobody could see her because she said she look like a dork! Payten ended up throwing a couple of clips in Chyanne's hair to as you can see.

We had a BLAST and plan on doing it again soon. Oh ya we watched Enchanted while we were doing our nails and didn't get to bed until 1:30 AM.

Before Jeremy left for basketball he made a bet with Jessie. He told her that if she painted her nails green then she could paint his pink when he got home. Well you can see who won the bet and he even went to work with it on!!! Thanks for being a good sport babe I love you!

4th of July

On the 4th we went down to mom and dads and decorated for Sharon and Roberts wedding and then we had a BBQ. My dad made the best siscabobs (I have no clue if that is spelled right). I think I ate about 7 or 8 of them. Then we headed to artic circle for ice ceam and then went to the resevoir to watch the fireworks. I was ok but they were to small up there. When we got home we could not get in our drive way because the neighbors we trying to clean up the mess of fireworks they had. The next morning we had fireworks all over our yard, on our roof, in our carport and one on our brand new trampoline with a small burn hole. Can you say Someone is in big trouble. I went over to the neughbors and talked to them but they didn't seem to care so now I don't know what to do. All I have to say is one firework on pioneer day and I am calling the cops because I don't mind fireworks but they are out of control. Lets be serious they could have easliy burnt our house down.

Start Smart T-Ball

Chyanne & Tayler streching out before the big game!

This year we signed Chyanne, Tayler & Cadince up for start smart t-ball. It teaches the kids the fundamentals of softball before they start actual t-ball. Can I say you need alot of patients when it comes to this. Chyanne was always way excited until about the end of the first station and then her attention span was about gone. The last two weeks they played actual games and I think they had more fun with that. One more year of this and then it is off to real t-ball YAH!

Look how far I can hit it!
Tayler hitting the ball (she can hit it pretty dang good)

Ward swim party

We had our ward swimming party on June 27th at SF pool. We ate at the pavillion first and then went swimming. My mom came and watched Stetler so we could enjoy ours girls. The thing that I think surprised me the most was both of the girls loved going down the slide with me (Jeremy wouldn't get out of the water because it was to cold) anyways they are usually big chickens. Faunda came and took a bunch of pictures. All in all it was a good time. By the way before we left Chyanne did talk her dad into taking her down the slide once.

FHE and Fishing

On June 23rd we went up to the resevoir for family home evening with Rod and Christy's family. It was alot of fun. The kids were catching a ton of fish which we planned on releasing but the little buggers kept swallowing the hooks so we started giving them to the people next to us who were having a rough go at it (worms are the secret). Well we finally had to start keeping them for ourselves because we were catching way to many for one family to take home. Chyanne and Chance ran around and kept climbing the hill and then running down it, it was way to cute. Rylee enjoyed picking on Grandpa and I think it was her goal to eat or dump out every otter pop Christy brought! Jessie, Austin, Christy, Jeremy & Rod pretty much were the fishermen and of course I ran the camera. Last but not least I told Jessie to put her feet in the water so I could take that awesome picture of her and low and behold as she was sitting there she caught another fish it was pretty funny!! Thanks for the funny night everyone.

Family home evening at the Oldhams

This Monday we got together with the Oldhams and the Davies for dinner and games. Well first off I better that tell the first part of the story. Monday afternoon Saedi called me to make sure we were still planning on coming over and I said of course. Then a little while later Val called me and we were saying how we need to get together soon and I said well we are going to the Oldhams for FHE tonight. Val proceeds to tell me see how you are, to good because we didn't call and invite them and in my mind I am feeling really bad because I wanted to just say come on over but I didn't want to invite them over to someone elses house. Anyways we keep talking and totally being rude to each other (that is just us we have a great relationship but we tease each other like crazy). Once the call ending I immediatley call Saedi and tell her that I was feeling horrible but didn't know how much food she had. So we got off the phone and she called Val. To here that conversation go to there blogs!!! Anyways we all ended up going over. We ate yummy cafe rio pork and Val brought these amazing rice krispie treats with white choclate on top (ya the whole pan was gone before the end of the night). Then we played games. We played druthers which was fun for us but boring for the guys and then we played celestial companions. Ryan and Val always win at this game but me and Jeremy gave them a run for their money this time it ended in a tie breaker and they won again ( if we would have stuck with the first ? we would have won by the way) oh ya Dan and Saedi totally stink at this game which totally cracks me up. By the way the other kids had a blast playing with each other. My girls always love when we have game night because Vals girls treat them like little princesses and my niece Amber is staying with us so it was fun for her to play with other girls her age. That is how our night went. It is always a blast and I am so grateful that we have been blessed to have such amazing friends. We love you guys!!! Val and Stetler
Jeremy, Dan and Ryan
Me, Val and Saedi
P.S. Thanks for the pictures Val!

Three Joys
1. My family especially watching my kids learn new things and listening to Stetler laugh.
2. Church except sacrament with Rylee is a nightmare but then she goes to nursery and all is well!
3. Softball. It has been really fun and I am so glad I wasn't pregnant this season.

Three fears
1. Needles of course I want pass out at the sight of one.
2. Losing someone close to me or having something horrible happen to them.
3. Losing a child at birth or during pregnancy. I think that would tear me apart.

Three goals
1. Have more patience
2. Lose baby weight
3. Read the Book of Mormon by the end of the year

Three current obsessions
1. Keeping a clean house. Anybody that knows me knows that I am very obsesive compulsive. If I mop and somebody walks on the floor with their shoes on I am bound to freak out. I have gotten a little better now that I babysit but still pretty bad. Jeremy sometimes moves a craft just to see me go fix it.
2. Bathing my kids every morning. I always thought this was normal but some people think I am crazy including my husband.
3. Blogging I knew I should have never started.

Three random surprising facts

1. I love to hunt. Most of you probably know that.
2. I have been stabbed in the leg with a pitch fork not once but twice. Thanks Sharon!
3. I can't keep the flowers in my yard alive.

I tag everyone on the side. Have fun I look forward to learning about you.
