I promise....

I have so much to post and so little time. I've got to post: Lizzie's adorable preschool graduation, cap and gown and all that goes with it, Our Fantastical journey to San Diego and some how filter the over 700 pictures I took while there, And our baby girl's 3rd birthday. I'm helping a friend with her daughter's wedding this weekend but I promise it'll all be coming to you soon. Just be patient with me. You can get sneak previews on the pix if you go to my facebook profile. Tell then I promise I'll be back soon.

Women's Conference

I was lucky enough to attend Women's Conference this year with my Mom and one of her sisters. All I can really say is "WOW!" and that is an understatement. I was so grateful to my husband for taking on the kids while I was able to be uplifted and strengthened. It was just what I needed.
So please enjoy my photo tour of Women's conference. Seriously so cool.
This was the first class we went to. It was in the ballroom and seriously I was blown away by the sheer amount of women! It was staggering.

Some of the great sites on the Y campus. I'll forever be an Aggie girl but it was still nice to enjoy the BYU Campus.

Ummm do you see what I mean. That for the most part are all women....... like over 20,000!
You might need to enlarge this one but Elder Perry was the closing speaker and he was so inspiring. But there where more "Big Wig" people there I labeled those who I could remember.
Sister Beck was also there and she has given me my new motto as a mother "raising superior daughters"

Speaking of raising superior's my mother in law attends Women's Conference Every year with some friends so I was able to crash her dorm and we discovered that our similar taste goes beyond her son. We both bought the same bag while we were there at different times.

We ended the day at Maglebee's and one of my favorite cousins and his amazing wife were able to meet us before they ventured out into the real world. Chace and Rivka both graduated from the Y and are on their way to conquer the world. Love these guys (you might be able to tell from my smile. ;)

When I got back I was attacked by my children and was greeted with this frame by frame doggy pile. They had a great time with Daddy he spoiled them by letting them stay up late and watched a movie with popcorn. He obviously taught Will how to read Spiderwick and I came back to some seriously happy children.

My mom bought the girls these super cute purses and they were so excited to model them for the camera. I swore I would never dress my kids in matching shirts but I couldn't help it with these adorable little outfits.

I couldn't help but keep shooting the kids were in such a cute mood and I had to capture these. I thought Abby just looked too adorable for words.



Seriously So cute!
Lizzie wanted in on the action as well.

Abby was more than happy to share the frames......

I'm so glad I was able to go and spend some quality time with my Mom. It's rare that we get to spend time together without at least one of my kids. I love my Mom so much and have truly been shaped by her love and guiding example. I'm pretty sure she's the best Mom in the entire world and I'm so glad to have her as my mom. I LOVE YOU MORE THAN WORDS MOM!

Posting Overload

So F*Y*I I just posted 3 new posts about the hap's in our home. I still have Women's Conference to post and I have an experience to share on my Mommy Content's blog. But A girl can only do so much in one night. So please read ahead leave comments on all the posts especially about how funny it is that in my running picture there's an ambulance right behind me, and how adorable my girls and awesome brother are, and how great our new floors look, and what a sweet ball player my husband is. So y' all have a lot to do so get a goin'

Uncle Garret

My kids are probably the luckiest kids in the entire world. Not only do they have A*M*A*Z*I*N*G grandparents they somehow lucked out in the Aunt and Uncle Department as well. I'm slightly fond of the uncles Where as So many of the uncles are my brothers. My brother Garret came and joined us for dinner before he left for his latest adventure in Atlanta GA. We love having him around but my girls love him most of all. They could not wait to get Uncle Garret on the tramp. According to Garret he hadn't been on a tramp since he was like 10 so he was a bit apprehensive. But the girls loved having him here. We miss him already and can't wait for him to get back.
This is Garret's "pose" Zoolander has his blue steel and Garret has this look. He was trying his best to teach Abby but she's yet to master his pensive look.

Ya, She's even less pensive in this one.

All right we'll give it up. Let's get our Jump on!

Lizzie thought she'd show him how his feet were supposed to leave the tramp.

Getting his bounce on. (ps love the clouds in this pix..Utah weather really can make some pretty pix)

And we have lift off!

Lizzie thought she'd give Uncle Garret's pose a try............. Nailed it! Garret could only hope to be so cute.

Athleticism

So We've been really active in our house. I'm keeping up with my running/pilates/basketball and Jeremy has been playing a lot of Basketball with the ward. I was able to run a 5K for the the domestic abuse help house out here just a week after I had my Wisdom teeth removed (don't worry there will be no pictures of my puffy face after the smarty pants teeth removed somehow the camera was missing during all of that) And Jeremy's team is currently undefeated in stake bball. But I guess the happy point of this all is that we are all feeling pretty healthy around our house.
P.S. I hate the picture of me, it was super posed and I'm pretty sure I look a lot better when I run in real life ;)


A couple of pictures from the one game of Jeremy's I've been able to see. Most of his games are at 9 thus I'm at home with babies in bed but the schedule gurus where kind enough to let him have one 7:30 game. I love watching Jeremy play he is so AWESOME! Seriously that boy can jump!
Jeremy stands leaning like this all the time....Ok not really......... but it does look really funny.

Remodel...stuff

Here is my picture tour of our latest remodeling efforts to our home. The carpet was really old and in need of a good change so I left the choice up to Jeremy new carpet or a Motorcycle. He probably knew it was one of those wife tricks that we give our husbands to see what they really think but regardless he passed with flying colors. We decided to keep going with some of the wood flooring we have throughout our house and added just a splash of carpet to warm up our little toes.



The upstairs Hallway after we ripped up the old carpet

The Hallway with laminate flooring. Doesn't it look so clean!

The view of the stairs/and formal room without carpet but new laminate on the landing.

The new carpet and wood flooring (added bonus screaming Will who needed some attention)

Formal room minus gross carpet.


This side of the room wasn't as worn but still in need of a change

Softolicious carpet. Seriously your toes sink like an inch into the carpet.
Ta Da! Doesn't it look so nice? Oh it's missing something you say?

There how about some furninture? Yes it looks much better now. I have loved this couch but it looked so bland on the white carpet now it pops! I can't wait to find some sweet pillows to go with it.
