Christmas Trip.

 

We got to go to California for the week before Christmas.  We weren't planning on going anywhere for Christmas because we didn’t have the funds to do so.  My brother Chad called us up one day and told us that his kids (from is 1st marriage) get to come to stay with him for the week before Christmas, and that if we could get to Salt Lake he would drive us to California and back.  SWEET CHEESE!! Tony and I talked it over and said YES!!!  We spent a couple of days with Tony’s family unfortunatly I didn’t take very many pictures when we were there and the ones that I had I posted in the previous post. My brother Ty and my sister Cis took all of the ones I posted today.

The fun!

It was such a fun trip! We had family pictures taken with a photographer because the first time in years the whole family was together!  I will post those pictures in another post. We did a big Birthday party for Ty and Jayne because their birthday are 2 days apart. Jayne was actually due on Ty’s birthday but she came 2 days early. The day that we did our “Christmas” with  the Bowman’s we did family photos then opened presents, we sent the kids out side to play, got ready for the feast, ate, cleaned up, vegged out, and then Ginger bread houses. it was so much fun.

With Tony’s family We all got together at his sister Colleen’s house and did Christmas there. We had a pizza party and lots of yummy desert, Opened presents. The kids had fun playing with each other and playing with their presents. All of us mom’s left the kids with the dad’s and we went to walmart to pick of a few things we needed. It was fun to visit with everyone. We enjoyed our trip dispite the loooooooong car ride. We are so glad that we got to come.

Thank you Chad and Theresa for driving us. We very much appreciate it. We love you miss you all.

Jayne’s 1st Birthday.

 

Jayne is 1 !!!!! I know every mom says this, but…. Time sure does fly! She had 2 birthday parties one with Tony’s family and one with mine. Jayne enjoyed her first cake, but would hardly touch her second cake. We tried to shove her hands into it, but she freaked out! She crawled over to me,  and as soon as I picked her up….. the older kids attacked like a pack of wolves on the cake! I didn’t even have time to say anything… it was Gone! Good thing I thought it was funny! It was pretty entertaining at how fast that cake disappeared.  Jayne had fun splashing in the sink while her cake became nonexistent.  I know the cake isn’t that pretty but my mom and I had and our to decorate 2 cakes one for Jayne and one for my brother Ty. so that’s as good as it gets!

Family Photos

 

We have been blessed with photography kindness once again. The first time was when Erinn was 5 months old we were given a free photo shoot, all because this lady thought that  Erinn was such an adorable baby. She went home and told her husband that he just had to give us a free photo shoot. I was so happy and felt so blessed, the Lord knew that I wanted  to get Erinn baby photos but didn’t have the money and BOOM I was placed at the right place at the right time.  This time our photography blessing came through a friend. Tony knew Erica when they were teenagers and she friended us on Facebook a while back. I knew she was a photographer and would look through her photographs here and there and always thought they were very nice.  One day I get a message from Erica on Facebook telling me that  she thinks our little girls are soooooo cute and that she would love to do family photo’s for us and free of charge of course!!. YES PLEASE!! I was so excited I immediately responded with YES!  I had been telling Tony that I had been wanting to get family pictures done because “we have been married for 4 years and haven’t done it”.  So when Erica messaged me, it was like the Lord was giving me a tender mercy again. Erica and her husband Nick were so much fun to work with when getting our pictures taken. They came prepared with candy for bribing Erinn into smiling pretty for the camera (Erinn has decided that taking picture is uncool). They all turned out very nice. So here are a few of my favorite.

Thank you so much Erica and Nick you did an amazing job. We very much appreciate your kindness. You can Check out their website Here.

Ps. I did not by choice cut Erinn’s bangs like that. I left out my sewing scissors and she got ahold of them and cut her own bangs so I had to even them our.

OOPS!!!

So today I went to add a friend to my blog list that I follow, and I managed to delete ALL of my list. So I had to figure out how to put that list back where it belongs on my blog, and then try to remember everyone on my blog list. So if you happen to read my blog and notice that you are not there anymore, let me know and I will add you. Sorry its really hard to remember everyone.

Being Crafty!

 

Thank you Beth for telling me about Windows live writer.

So I found this super  shirt at Gymboree, I was going to post a picture of it but I was having issues trying to post it so I gave up. The shirt was this super cute white shirt with a embroidered heart on it and it had buttons sewed into the middle of it. I really wanted to buy this shirt, but I couldn’t justify $12. so I just let it go. Well my friend Emma and I went to Target shortly after, and they had a bunch of super cute shirt for $6 and I got a bunch and then they had this cute plain shirt for $4 and I thought that I could recreate the shirt from Gymboree! so I got the shirt. Then I went to the local craft store and rummaged through their button bin and got a bunch of buttons for $ .99.

My friend Emma printed out a heart shape for me. I cut it out and traced the shape onto the shirt. I busted out my embroidery hoop and went to town on this shirt.

019 (2)

I remember part way through that I should take some documenting pictures because I knew I wanted to share with you.

027 (2)

Some of the cute buttons.

028 (2)029 (2)

My finished product! And for $5 instead of $12!! Can’t beat that!

030 (2)

I tried to get a picture of it on Erinn, but she has decided that picture’s taking isn’t cool anymore and wont let me take any of her right now. so sorry it’s not being modeled.

I shure hoped this worked

so I downloaded a new program so it will make blogging easier I sure that his works! thanks Beth!

Archikó Mório

This is an argument paper that I (Tony) wrote for an english class. It is pretty sciency but I would appretiate critiques. Beware, it's about 15 pages long! Let me know also if the link is not working. You will need Adobe to view it.
If you can't get it to open, here is a solution:
-right click the link
-select "send to OneNote"
-when OneNote opens right click the link. This is how I got it to work for me

Look what Daddy taught me!

Tony is already teaching her how to hang a spoon on her nose.


MotorCYCLE!!!!

Ok so ever since we had this motorcycle come blareing past our car, Erinn has been in love with "motorCYCLES". She see's one and immediatly yells "motorCYCLES" its pretty funny.
Some of the time she will say "Motorcyclecycle" which is pretty darn cute!
While we were in california we stayed at my brother Ty's house for a week and he happend to have a kid size motorcycle in his garage. (on loan from a friend) So naturally I had to get a few pictures of Erinn on the bike. Needless to say she was excited!.

Erinn and Jayne

Some days Erinn and Jayne look so much alike to me and some days not at all. So I had to find some pictures of the two around the same age. I know the don't look exactly alike but they look alot alike to me.

Erinn

Jayne



"Down in Fraggle Rock"

So I don't know how many of you remember Fraggle Rock. But the other day when I did Erinn's hair she totally reminded me of a Fraggle.

Love,Blessings, and Grateful.

I must say that I love my life. I have been blessed in so many ways. Let me start with my wonderful husband Tony. Tony is my glue that holds me together. Yes I may get ffrustrated with him at times but I am glad that he is my husband, he is slow to anger, understanding, loving smart hard working, and patient I could keep going but I'm pretty sure you get the idea. He is so sweet he always makesure that he takes time away from his homework to spend time with his family, especially when he knows that Erinn is about to drive me batty, he will stop what he is doing and play with her so that i can get a small break. he is always so good about helping around the house, remembering to do family home evening and putting Erinn to be for me. Erinn..... she is such a sweet girl. Though i may get flustered at times with her i definatly have to remember that she is only 2 and i need to be more understanding and think like a two year old
to understand why she does the things she does. But she is such a sweet heart it took her a couple of weeks to get use to Jayne being apart of the family but i can happily say that she no longer try's to step on Jaynes head! instead she insists on giver her kisses right on the mouth! so poor jayne has had to deal with a stuffy nose for the past 2 months which is now finally got(woohoo). Erinn loves to watch Cinderella, Robinhood and Baby Einsteins and her moneys show that Grama Lynn got her for Christmas. She loves to talk on skype with her Grandparents and cousins and likes to put makeup on with mom! her vocabulary is starting to expand though she still chooses when she want to use them intead of when we try to encourage her. she loves to play in the snow and be outside. she loves to read books and loves to have me read them to her when i'm trying to take a break and read my books! she loves to help me put away dishes and help me change over the laundry from the washing machine to the dryer. Her two favorite songs right now are "Ppopcorn Popping" and "Head Shoulders Knees and Toes" she knows all of the hand motions. she loves going to nursery at church. she know how to fold her arms when its time to say prayer, and say AMEN! Its is such a joy to watch her grow and and learn, she teaches me so much about myself (that i can be more patient!)i sure do love that little girl!!!


Jayne.... she is my blob! sh is so chubby its adorable. she is a little over 3 months and she is probably about 15-16lbs. she is such a happy baby she loves to smile and talk up a storm. i have been ask if she is wearing a wig more than once i'm sad that her hair doesn't stick up likeErinns did...... but i am also glad that people don't ask if thats my dog when i'm carrying her around in my mobywrap!for now she is definatly a mamas girl, i think it bugs poor Tony but i think it will change as she gets older just s it did with Erinn. she is such a good natured baby and such a blessing in our lives, i love her so much. I am Grateful for all that i have.


This last weekend was General Conference for our Church (where the Leaders of our church speak to us) it was such a pleasure to listen to the speakers and hear the chiors sing. It is always so nice to be spiritually up lifted and fed. I am grateful for the gospel in my life. i know that Jesus Christ came to this earth and died for us. I know that He lives through the power of the resurrection, i know that He loves me and is mindful of my needs i know that we have a Prophet on the earth today and that he is here to guide us and direct us through our Father in Heaven. I love my life and everything in it. I am so Grateful.


both of my babies are waking up now so i don't have time to go through my post to fix all of my misspelligns and lower case I's and begining of sentences .. so bare with me. I hope you all are having a wonderful day. so until the next post(when ever that will be). Smile!
