Friend Reunion

I had a friend reunion with my friends from my ward growing up. I think we agreed that most of us hadn't seen each other for over 4-5 years...My friend Monica scheduled our little get-together, she was going to be in town (she lives in Washington State), so I picked her up and we had lunch with our friends Amber, Laurie, and Andrea at Chili's. We spent a few hours reminiscing and had fun doing so!

Here I am with Laurie

Easter: Another Christmas? NO!

We had a fun Easter, the children especially enjoyed every bit of it! Vanessa and Chandler woke up with baskets of spoiling fun! (Grandma & Grandpa Glass helped spoil with the two baskets in the front in the picture below) I like to get my kids things that won't perish (no candy) so that they can enjoy lasting fun. I usually get a small toy, a coloring book, and a few other small items. After Church, we went to my Aunt Karen's house to eat dinner and then we had a fun Easter egg hunt. Enjoy the pictures!

Chopped!

My sister-in-law, Stephanie, had me CHOP her hair off! I think we ended up cutting at least 5 inches! Enjoy the pics!

Before

After

104.3

Ashton got so sick after he received his 12 month shots, he had a fever of 104.3 for 5 days! We had to keep icing him because the medicine was not lowering the fever at all! We took him to the doctor again to make sure he was going to be okay, he even had a rash all over his body. All he wanted to do was be held, and so he became a mommy's boy because of it! On top of the mean fever he had three teeth coming in at the same time! Plus, we had to treat him for the beginnings of an ear infection. Poor little boy! He is all better now!

Boondocks

We had my brother Brad and his wife Stephanie and their children come to Boondocks with us last Thursday. We had a lot of fun with them! We made sure that we rode the race cars, Brad & Dave played laser tag while Stephanie and I watched the kiddos play at Kiddie Cove! Brad and Steph left Dave and I with their kids Peter & Johnathon for awhile so they could ride the race cars, so we had Vanessa carry Peter all the way up the giant, four-story tall, soft play area and then she pushed him down a big slide (he wasn't happy about that part, but we got it on video!).We then had some fun at the Arcade!!!

I've joined your boat!

I know that some of my family and friends have dealt with this before and still are, but now I have joined your boat! I mentioned earlier that my husband got a higher position, Account Executive, in a company called Litle & Company based out of Boston, Massuchessetts...and now I get to see how it feels to have a husband who travels for his job! He will be working from our home when he is in town but he will be traveling at least twice a month, for a week or so at a time! A part of me doesn't want him gone but the other part is saying "I can handle this!" ...and so far I have. Dave has been gone for four days now, and still I have seven days or so until he comes home! It's been different with just me and three kids, surprisingly I have handled my three kids better than when Dave has been here at home....strange...but maybe I am growing in some way. I do miss him a whole lot!

32

I was going to post this blog two weeks ago and well, you know how it is, ya get pretty busy with life! Anyway, Ramseys and Vanessa now weigh the same, thirty-two pounds! But I am sure he is bigger by now, he is growing so fast but still so small for only 4 1/2 months being a Great Dane! Ramseys goes to puppy school every Wednesday and is learning obedience and commands, he is doing very well so far! I already knew how to train my dogs with sit, down, stay, off, come, shake a paw, roll over, etc. But the training is teaching me other things to do with him like watch me, leave it, and how to walk on a leash etc. that I needed some kind of help with. I figured if he is going to be such a large dog, he definitely needed to be taught some manners!

Ashton's Birthday Cards...

I am so loving digi-scrapping! It is the best invention in the world! I also spend a lot of time doing digi-scrapping through Heritage Makers! I love it! Anyway, I did Ashton's Birthday invitations and Thankyou cards and thought I would post them so anyone can check it out!

I re-model!

This is our "middle" bathroom, the bathroom the children are suppose to use. I decided to make a change to the cabinets because I am not too fond of oak cabinets, I am a person who loves cherrywood and walnut colors. But now I need ideas for the walls, so if you have an idea of what to paint the walls, let me know...

Before

After

So what do you think of the "Before" and "After"? I want oppinions! Does it look better or .....???

I was thinking about doing the walls this blue color, what do you think?
