I went in to check on them and Oaklee was carefully placing her GoGurt on Max's head while he just looked up and smiled on her. When we went in she just said " Daddy Look". She thought it was hilarious. Max didn't seem to mind

3 years!
For anyone who doesn't know we kind of have a crazy love story... I actually met him while he was in Iraq with the 222nd and we decided to get married even before we had met. When he was home on leave for 15 days he asked me to marry him and then off he went back to war. 5 very long months later he returned safely home and we were married. What a great story we have to tell our children and grandchildren someday.
Its amazing how much can change in 3 years.......
we moved from cedar
got new jobs
had two beautiful kids
and bought our first home
I just wanted to say how blessed I feel for having my husband and children in my life. They are the greatest blessings Heavenly Father has ever given me. I'm looking forward to forever with them! I love you Justin more than you will ever know!!!

Cereal!!!
Well because Justin and I both work, my kids have to get up pretty early to get ready and to the babysitters house by 7:30 every morning. Max has no problem with this all you have to do is say his name and he sits right up and is ready to go. Oaklee on the other hand is impossible to get out of bed. I've tried everything from talking to her, turning on the light ( so mean) and turning on her cartoons. Nothing seems to work. So yesterday Justin discovered the magic way to get her up. First let me explain that Oaks is obsessed with cereal. She would eat it all day everyday if we would let her. So Justin thought if he offered it to her she would get up. All he did was open her bedroom door and say "Oaklee are you hungry? Lets go get some cereal." Up she went did a barrel roll out of her bed and sprinted to the kitchen. It was hilarious. So this morning I tried the same trick. I asked her if she was hungry and if she wanted cereal. She wasn't quite awake yet and started to roll and rolled right off her bed and hit the floor with her eyes still closed, jumped up as fast as she could, ran to the kitchen and stood by the cereal cupboard with her eyes still squinted saying "pease(please), pease mom pease" it was so funny. She is so cute.......

Our summer adventures
My beautiful little sister Sally got married this summer so off we went to Salt Lake to her wedding. My parents were married in the Salt Lake Temple and so were Justin and I so Sally followed in our footsteps and got married in the most beautiful place I've ever been
Here is the car ride up..... one awake one asleep
Here are some pics of my kids waking up on Sally's wedding day....
I curled hair for hours...
It was amazing day! The spirit was so strong. Sitting in the sealing room watching my little sis be sealed for time and all eternity was such an amazing experience.
The other exciting thing that happened this summer was my beautiful little girl turned 2! She loves the Backyardigans so we decided to have a small little get together with family and have a barbecue with the cutest cake ever! It was so fun.
So I am the assistant cheer coach at PHS and this year I got to go to cheer camp. I had so much fun with the girls they are awesome! I loved it! Minus the sitting outside in the sun all day for 4 days. The girls all made sure I had a fun time. I'm looking forward to many years with them. They are all so beautiful!
We were at cheer camp Monday thru Thursday and came home Thursday night. The next morning I got up packed my kids bags, repacked mine, and headed back up to Salt Lake for a fun weekend at the zoo with my family before I had to return to work. Oaklee had so much fun. She loves animals, especially monkeys. We bought both our kids a hat, although Oaks wouldn't wear hers, and spent the day just showing Max and Oaklee the amazing animals. Max slept through most of it but woke up just in time to ride the carousel. He rode on a little penguin and Oaks rode a hippo. I love how the simple things like going to the zoo light up the faces of my kids. It was so much fun to just get away and take my kids somewhere just for them. For no reason at all but to see them smile. We stayed at the Little America and took the kids swimming. It was a blast. It was probably one of the funnest trips I've been on in a while. It really made the end of summer great!
Our summer although it was short was wonderful. Spending time with my kids was the best thing ever. I thank Heavenly Father everyday for the wonderful job that I have that allows me to be with my kids as often as I am. I love my kids so much they bring so much joy to me. I never knew I could love someone so much until I met my husband and had my two beautiful kids. I love being a mom and look forward to all the many memories I get to make with my family!Wednesday, July 22, 2009
