Mother's Day

After I got off work we went up to Jamey's parents house for mothers day. We had some good food and then opened up presents. Jamey and I got Patti a snuggy (I believe is what its called) It's a blanket that has arms so you can still change the channel and other things. She loved it! (Funny thing though this was actually her Christmas present, but it came late and I kept forgetting to give it to her). We also got her the movie "Bride Wars". Annie and Ben gave her some C.D.'s of pictures, and Brittany got her a cute beach bag, swimming suit and cover up. I think she had a good Mother's day. I am so greatful to have such a good Mother in law. She can always see the good side of everything and have a good laugh no matter what. After Isabel's blessing that morning Bethany and I gave our mom her present, We got her a ticket to American Idol Live (I should've thought about taking a picture of that but of course not). She really liked her present as well and hopefull she can fugure a way out of part of girls camp so she can go!!! I am also so greatful for my mom, I wouldn't be the person I am today without her. She is such a kind and compasionate person. She is one of my best friends and I enjoy hanging out with her and doing whatever. Thanks for being such a good mom! Happy Mothers Day!!

Isabel's Blessing

My niece Isabel was blessed on May 10th (Mothers day). She looked so cute in her dress and was really good during the blessing. My mom crocheted the dress for her and it turned out so cute.

Spring Break. Devil's canyon, Utah

This year we went to Devil's Canyon for our spring break. Never Heard of it before, neither had I. It's in between Blanding and Moab. I think there were 3 other people camping there so we basically had the place to ourselves which was nice. This was my kind of camping trip we just sat around, relaxed and enjoyed eachothers company. There a cool rock wall in our campground that we went climbing on that was way cool and fun. We did go to the four corners one day, which is always fun. It was so windy I thought I was going to be blown away!!! We bought some fun souveniers and even got some yummy fry bread. A couple days later we found out that four corners is actually on top of a mountain, so we weren't really standing in four states at one time. We had a belated Easter egg hunt and the kids really enjoyed it. We also went out to eat at a restaurant in Blanding one night and I think the people there thought we were crazy! Thirteen of us all in that little restaurant probably did look a little crazy. I LOVE spending time with my family and could not think of anything I would rather do. So this was perfect!

My new Niece!!

Isabel was born Saturday March 28th at 5:26 p.m. She was 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 19 inches long. She has black hair and is so cute! (of course) I don't think she looks like Rachel or Calvin, but I can see Brian and Stefannie in her. We are so happy she is here and happy that her and Stefannie are both doing good!

I'll say "happy" you say "birthday"

Cassia had her 6th birthday party at chucky cheese!! It was funny to see all us adults playing the games as much as the kids. I think we won like 4,000 tickets all together and of course that will only get you ten plastic dinosaurs, 3 pirate eye patches, and 5 tongue balloon things. I'm sure they got a lot more than that but that's how it seems. They announced Cassia's name over the intercom and she had the most shocked look on her face it was hilarious. Chucky also came out and sang "happy birthday" to her and they got to dance with him too!! One little girl at her party could not get enough of Chucky and one little girl was frightened by him. (Remember when that place used to be showbiz pizza?!!) Cassia and I share a birthday so it is actually really fun for me to get to celebrate but not feel like it's for me!

Racal Flatts

So for the past 3 years my mom has bought tickets to the rascal flatts concert for me for my birthday. This year just Bethany and I went cause Jessica Simpson was opening for them and my mom said she does not like her. We met Katie at Jason's deli for dinner and while we were walking over we almost got hit by a trax train. Yikes!! Jessica Simpson was okay she forgot the words to one of her songs and then some of the others she sang were gospel songs so that was kind of weird. But it was worth sitting through her performance to see rascal flatts. They started out the concert with a back ground of some woods and you could see a shooting star coming closer and closer when finally it hit the stage and exploded!! It was the coolest opening to a concert ever. They are amazing performers and have an amazing band. This one guy can play the fiddle like no one's business, it's crazy!! And their drummer is from Utah. One guy tells the same jokes every year they come though and I have them memorized. Their stage went around the whole floor so a lot of the time we were pretty close which was cool. On our way home from the concert a guy passed us going like 130 mph and almost hit us once and the guy next to us twice!! Bethany called highway patrol but I don't think they ever found him. So we could have died twice that night.

Shoe Fanatic!!!

I babysit my niece Wrigley every Thursday while her mom and dad are at work. This past Thursday Bethany, my mom and I went up to Brigham city. While my mom stayed at my Grandma's and Grandpa's house cleaning. Bethany, our cousin Jacquie, Wrigley and I went shopping. The first store we stop at was a show store. We all tried on shoes including Wrigley!! She was walking all over grabbing shoes and ooohing and aaahing them and then would put them on her feet. Annie and Ben are in TROUBLE!!!
