Blogger Award

Amazing Blogger award

My friendliest friend...=) just tagged me in a fun little post. Just wanted to thank Mind for the awesome opportunity I have to brag about myself for a minute! lol.

Terms of this award: must list 10 things about yourself, thank the person who gave you this award, and pass it on to 10 wonderful bloggers.

1. I am absolutely a huge TWILIGHT fan! I read the first three books in 6 days, the fourth book in two days....I've seen all three movies at midnight, and waited in line for the books and movies all hours of the night....just to be part of the maddness! I {heart} edward!

2. I like teeny bopper shows like "A cinderella story", and "what a girl wants".

3. I love to sew and do anything crafty. Me and my girlfriends are always looking for something fun and exciting to do...from starting little businesses making baby stuff, to deciding we were cleaver, and making the cutest magnets EVER, spending all kinds of rediculous money, just to have fun.

4. I've recently discovered that I am the funnest to be around in the early early hours of the morning....like in between 12-4 am....=) that's when I am at my finest....! maybe it's a combination of me being totally awesome, and having a great friend who is willing to do crazy things with me! =)

5. Some times I feel alittle alone in the world, but then I remember how many people love me, and how great life truely is. I have just about anything I could ask for...except cable tv and a cell phone....=( sometimes there are more important things in life...!! Like maybe buying groceries and paying the mortgage! hehehehehe.

6. I love going to school. Even tho it's tough juggling kids, and preston, Im sure....is sick of "babysitting".....I love going. It's great to be doing something for me...for being me...and feeling like someday I will have a college degree! I can't wait to be done, a long road ahead, but totally worth it when I finish.

7. I seriously do have the funnest friends in the whole world...I'm sure of it! Mine are way better than yours. I have friends in all kneck of the woods, and Im so very grateful for each and every one of them.

8. Im not much of the out doorsy type....I love being outside, but only after about 5 oclock when it's not soo hott, and you can actually enjoy it. Preston loves the outdoors, and Im sure if I got more acquainted with the bugs, and dirt.....we would have alot more fun!

9. I love Disneyland, and can't wait to take preston someday. He hasn't been since he was in the 3rd grade...and I know he will love it. How could he not!?!

10.....saving the best for last....Im totally in love with my cute little family. Even tho sometimes things are not always peachy, Im totally grateful for all that I have. I have a husband who I love and who takes very good care of our family. He does all he can for us, and I know he loves us very much. I have the fiestiest four year old you've ever seen, but I love her too pieces. She's a girl who know's what she wants in life, and goes after it until she gets it! She says the funniest things ALL of the time, and is always keeping us on our toes. She's thinks a princess....and loves to paint her nails, and get her hair done! =) My baby kella is full of smiles, and we are so blessed to have her in our lives. She seriously makes us all laugh, and has brought us so much closer. Her blue eyes twinkle every time someone talks to her and she grinns from ear to ear!

June 13th...one year.

Last year, on June 13th, my mom passed away from Cancer...mulitple Myloma...I can not believe that it truely has been one whole year. I have a strange feeling inside while thinking about this. I miss her alot, and everyday I wish I could still call her, see her, be her support when she needed it most. Going through that last year at such a young age was one of the hardest trials I have ever been through. losing your mom at the age of 26 is a terrible thing, I can't image being any younger. It makes me sad that she will not get to my children as they grow older, and that Lilee and Kella will not know her. I remember I had just found out that I was pregnant with Kella one week before she died. I was thinking to myself...how I am possibly going to take care of my mom and be sick and pregnant on the couch puking...I was terrified, my mom needed a lot of assistance and it was a really hard thing to have to go through. My mom was living with us at the time, and I am soo very grateful for the time I had with her. I will cherish those last couple of months FOREVER. I miss my mom everyday, but I know I will see her again.. I actually am going to be doing her Temple Work next Saturday, and extremely excited to be doing that for her. I can't wait! Im sure the spirit will be sooo strong. I have not been to the temple in a long time, and am looking forward to the experience I am about to embark on. I know my mom has been despartely waiting. Anyways- I just wanted to remember her for a minute on blogger, and like I always say, I can not believe how fast time truely does fly. It's scarey.

My two beauties...

I {HEART} these little girls.

school....

This first block of summer is almost over, and Im soo excited...although the next blocks starts right away! Im glad that I got one block done and it's not new anymore. Just life and something I need to get use too! I do love going to school tho, it gives me sort of....my own identity. No one knows my husband and kids, and it just kind of lets me be me...if that makes sence. Not that I don't like being connected to my family, but I like being me also! we will see how the rest of the summer goes, I have only had math this block, and it's been SOOO super busy. Trying to learn a Math book in 6 weeks is NUTS!

Nothin new.

Here's a couple pics I took with my cell phone, nothing new lately going on, I started school again, so that has kept us pretty busy! Anyways- these girls are cute, so here's a couple pics.

Chubby Babies make me happy....

Love them.

Not too much happening lately...

we came to vernal a couple days ago, and lilee has been playing outside nonstop with the nice weather. I traced her with chalk and when I came back later that day she had drawn hair, a dress, braclets and a face on it, and she said "Im pretty, huh mom!" It was sooo cute! Here is some more of our sidewalk art, and a quilt I quilted while I was here too. Then here's just a cute little shot of Kella Bug...

Today was Kella's blessing day...Preston did such a great job! Im so grateful to have him in our lives, he's such a great dad! Anyways- Kella looked so cute in her dress, and I love this one with the bonnet. She didn't wear the bonnet, but it looks cute in the picture! LOVE HER. so glad she's part of this little family.
