Anyways-

I could ramble on all night...but the point is, I am feeling alot of GRATITUDE right now, and Im not sure why. I have an amazing life, and sometimes I take it for granted and need to be reminded.

Last night we went to the Jack Johnson concert at the Usana Ampetheater....it was so much fun! Jack is absolutely amazing live! If you ever get the chance to go to one, you really should! It was so GREAT! Here's a couple pictures of our fun!
This first picture is of us on the way....with a flat tire!!! Can you believe that! Im glad it didn't happen on the freeway, that would have been scary! anyways-Thanks guys for the fun this weekend!





This last picture is of all the stupid cars in the parking lot....we had to wait for 55 minutes just to get out of the stinkin' parking lot! It sucks, but it was so funny at the same time! lol. Anyways- see ya later!

My girl friend Lindsey and her boyfriend Jay came from California today to visit me! I love them. We had so much fun. We went and had a weinie roast up in snake creek, and it was so good to see them! Tomorrow we are going to the Jack Johnson concert so I will update then with pictures! Until then, see ya later!

WHAT AN AMAZING GUY! He set his heart on 8 gold metals, and he accomplished just that! A GOLD metal for every event he was in! That has got to be pure gratification! WOW, he is so inspiring.....AMAZING!

I CAN TOTALLY SEE MY LITTLE LILEE DOING THIS!! SHE LOVES THE STINKIN STUFFED ANIMAL MACHINES, AND STUFFED ANIMALS ARE HER ALL TIME FAVORITE THING!!! CHECK THIS OUT!! CRAZY!

I LOVE THE OLYMPICS!!! Aren't these athletes so inspiring! I have really enjoyed watching them this year! Micheal Phelps is absolutely amazing! I wish I could swim like that....and boy does he have a nice swimmers body! lol. If I could look somewhat like that, I'd take up swimming too!

FARMERS MARKET!

The farmers market has been a ton of fun! A little stressful at first, but we worked it all out, and it has come together quite nice! Its been so fun, and we have actually done really well! So we only have one more week to check us out there, wich is kind of Bittersweet....but you can check us out the following week at Mindy's house for SWISSDAYS!

Need I say MORE? Its 3:17 a.m. and it took me two day to read a total of 754 pages. That time includes sleep and being a mother and a wife! lol. Anyways...Im absoluetly CrAzY and my husband doesn't understand the urge to keep reading. He just doesn't know Edward like I do! lol
Anyway-s have to go to bed now, I desparetly need some sleep right now!

LILEE

A few things about my little Lilee!!!

* She is so afraid of the "Big" Potty, she cries everytime. What should I do about this?
* She hates Band aids. Aren't kids suppose to love them? I remember I thought they fixed everything...but if she's bleeding, you have to hold her down to even get one on her.
* She kisses you three time...once on the LIPS...has to be lips, cheek doesn't cut it, then she insists on butterfly kisses (fluttering your eye lashes on their cheek). and last but not least eskimo kisses...and every once in a while she will kiss one cheek and then the other. She's freakin adorable!
* She knows her way around...Everytime we pass by a park, she says "there's the park", every time we are driving past Mindy's house, she says "there's mimi's house", everytime we go to Midways post office and if we turn right to go home, she cries because she wantes to go "that way to GRANDMAS!" She knows when we are on our way to her little friend Adairs house...and one time I pasted by because she wasn't home, and she said "UH OH MOMMY....DAIR!!" She knew we weren't stopping! It's crazy to me!
* She says "OH NUNNIN" when you ask her what she's doing! The cutest thing ever...with an emphasis on OH....like she's really thinking about it. lol
* She HATES going Nigh night! She just started this recently....she will climb on my lap and say "no nighnight mommy, I stay here", and she raps her arms around me.


AS YOU CAN TELL, SHE HAS QUITE THE PERSONALITY. EVERYDAY SHE SAYS SOMETHING NEW AND DOES SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAT SHE DIDN'T DO THE DAY BEFORE...THEY GROW SO FAST. I JUST WANTED TO POST A FEW LITTLE THINGS ABOUT LILEE, BECAUSE SHE MAKES ME LAUGH EVERY SINGLE DAY! lOVE YOU BABY..

Today we are taking Lilee and her cousins to the CARNIVAL! Im excited to see if she likes the rides or not, last year she wasn't so sure about them! I will update more later.

Leaving SEATTLE

So it's 10:57 p.m. and I couldn't wait to post these pictures...I took like 225 pictures so narrowing it down to the few I posted was hard! It's so funny though, because every picture we took, the boys were like....(OOO, are you gonna blog that one!?!?!) HECK YES WE ARE! lol. Anyways- Alaska was so much fun, it was so pretty, and so cold, but so worth it. Thanks so much Bob and Jolyn for taking us all on a cruise! It was so fun! I missed Lilee so much, and seeing her today was so cute, she was so excited! Anyways- more later! Good night.

BRITISH COLUMBIA...somewhere along the way.

This is what you saw while going to Alaska....the views were so pretty. It was the first cruise I had been on, where you pretty much see land the whole time...It was so fun!
