Our Anniversary

I know it is Veteran's Day but that is the beauty of having an anniversary on a national holdiay. Your husband never forgets and nobody else does either. Thank you to all who called today. You are awesome. Plus I will never forget how many years we have been married because we were married in 2000. So whatever year it is that is how many years we have been married. So it has been eight years (2008) that Tim and I have been married and I can't believe it. The time has gone by so quickly. Wow I am getting old. But pretty soon ten years will be rolling around and I know that will come so fast. Tim is a sweetheart. He did the number one thing he should have done and he got me two dozen long stemmed roses just like I like. He is way too good to me. I love you babe and here is to another many many years together. Love you!!

Halloween Fun

So this year Shae was a skeleton face hoodie scary boy, Elle was a diva (Hannah Montana), Olivia was a good witch, and Finners was a cowboy. Finn was not cooperating very well but as of lately he has discovered that he really loves candy. So all I had to do was tell him that if he put his vest and chaps on people would give him candy. That was all he needed to be bribed. The kids had tons of fun and fortunately it wasn't too cold but it did rain a little. The kids got so much candy I will have to be hiding a bunch for later. Finn has also discovered that he is a chocolaholic. He must have gotten that from Tim not me.

Blogging Update

So I haven't update my blog in six months, that is not that long is it. The thing is I hate my computer because it is so slow and so I hate getting on it. I have a ton of things to put on it but I am holding out for a new lap top so then I will update more often. I was hoping for one soon but with how the financial market and the economy are going it may be a while. So until then I will do my best to do something. Elle was on tv the other day and she was adorable. She has lost four teeth in like a two week span so she basically can't bite anything. Shae is in 6th grade and wow I will have a kid in Junior high next year. Can you say old? He likes his teacher and doing well in school. His ankle is healing just great from his surgery and is ready to play sports now. Olivia or should I say Ollo is super cute. Her, Finn and I get to spend all of our days together. She does however like to go play with as many friends as possible. She is super funny and says the cutest things all the time. Finn is following in his sisters footsteps and not talking that much yet. He will be two right after Christmas and still only says Mama and Dada. But as a mom yall know that he still can communicate really well and I always seem to know what he wants or needs. He is also the skinniest little thing you have ever seen. We need to put some weight on him. I will do a post soon on Halloween with some pictures. Oh yes lets get an update on Tim. We are still in limbo about his job and anyone in the financial industry is in limbo. We are staying optimistic and I know that things will turn out for the best. Well elections are tomorrow and I hope the people of this country make the right choice. Thank goodness that whoever wins at least we know that Heavenly Father will guide our leaders as long as they are listening. Our country needs a lot of help right now and lets all pray that the right things will be done to stabilize it.

Skiing at Sundance March 3, 2008

Tim, Shae, Elle and I went skiing at Sundance in March. It was Elle's first time and she did so good. After about three times down the bunny hill she was ready for the big mountain. She went down the green run four times and did so awesome. I guess she has Tim's natural athletic ability. Shae has gone a couple of times this year because he has the fifth grade ski pass this year and can ski for free. He is getting really good too. We had so much fun and it was a perfect day at Sundance.

Shae is in Mr. Van Orden's 5th Grade Class at Ridgeline Elementary.

Elle is in Mrs. Judd's Kindergarten Class at Ridgeline Elementary.

Their school is the one that got snowed in. Shae was at the School until 10:30 pm and my parents had to go and rescue him. Traverse Moutain was closed and Tim was flying home from California.

Family Picture

Last November we had our family picture taken up near Woodland Hills. They turned out great. As you all know it can be hard getting a good picture from four kids. Thank goodness for digital photography.

Hogle Zoo August 6th, 2007

We went to the Hogle Zoo with the whole family and Shae's cousin Kai. We had a lot of fun.

Finn Crawling

Finn started crawling this week. Now we have to really watch out and keep things picked up.

Lake Powell Storm

It was an awesome storm that passed through while we were in Lake Powell. Here is a shot of some of the lightning. It was absolutely amazing.

This is a funny picture it is off the houseboat and the white spots are actually rain and I think that other object is a bug. But I think it looks like I have two pictures overlapping and one is of the Lake Powell landscape and the other is of the stars. I thought it looked pretty cool.
