Finally!!!

Well I have been saying it for awhile but I've finally took the plunge. I have told myself I would find a hobby to keep myself busy when Kyle isn't home. I have been following some blogs that have way cute ideas for crafts and I've finally started some. They are for sure not the best looking but they were fun. I made some carrots from styrofoam and fabric and they were the easiest thing I've tried so far. I found them Oopsey-Daisy Blog http://oopsey-daisy.blogspot.com. They were pretty easy to make.

These next pictures I saw on the blog http://becauseicancrafts.blogspot.com. I first made the Valentine ones and then moved onto the Easter Egg. I figured I would try to get some more holiday crafts since I only have ones for Halloween and Christmas. These crafts were pretty cheap since most of the stuff I got from the dollar store and our Roberts Crafts is closing so everything is way cheap. I do have to admit these were not the easiest things to make cuz of the moss. I'm just glad I finished them but storing them won't be much fun either.



I've had fun and it's been nice to have something to do. I am in the process of making a puff quilt and I hope I will finish it in the next few months. I've been working on it for about 5 years on and off. It has been a long time since I've made one and I've had a hard time putting it together. Oh well it will look way cute when I'm finished.

CELEBRATION!!!!

This weekend we had alot going on. First we celebrated my Grandma Bleazard's 100th birthday!!! She is such an amazing woman. She seemed really with it and in good spirits. We had a huge turn out and there were people there that weren't able to make it last year. Tons of pictures were taken and good food was served. My mom had made a poster of how many grand children, great grand children and even great great grand children but do you think I can even remember the numbers?? I will have to look up my sisters blog cuz I'm sure she will know all the numbers. I got to see my cousin Sandy who I haven't seen in 10 or so years. I'm so glad that my grandma was able to live to 100 years to bring us all together. I love you Grandma!!!

This picture is of my family with my Grandma Bleazard.We are such a good looking group!!

My siblings. I don't know what I would do without them. I am a lucky person to have the brothers and sister that I have. Thanks guys for always putting up with my crap!!!

My cousin Sandy. Growing up I didn't have many cousins my age that were girls but there was always Sandy. We always had a good time whenever we were together. Sandy I'm so glad you haven't changed. Your husband seems way cool. I can't wait for us to get together and cause some more trouble!!! Vegas here we come!

My new niece Claire. Brian and Becca are the proud parents of red head Claire. She is a doll. She fits in this family well with the red hair and really looks like Savanah's twin. Brian blessed her this sunday and did a great job. Claire never made a peep either.
This weekend was a great weekend. I got to see lots of Aunts and Uncles, cousins and past friends. This was the first time since Claire was born that all my family was able to get together. I have missed my family so much and this weekend was perfect. I LOVE my family!!!

Alice In Wonderland

This past weekend Kyle and I went to see Alice in Wonderland. I had been looking forward to it ever since I saw the previews and because I really do like Johnny Depp. He is good in everything he does! Also I have never seen a movie in 3-D so that sounded like fun. It was a pretty cool movie. The plot was alittle dark but over all I loved it! The acting was pretty good and the animation was awesome! I don't have a favorite character but I thought Alice was good and so was the Mad Hatter. I would totally go see this again in the theaters and I will definately buy this movie. Thank you Kyle for taking me to the movie!!!

Kyle was nice enought to let me take a picture of us in our way cool 3-D glasses!!

Girls day


This past weekend I got to have a girls day with my family. It was awesome!!! There was Carrie, Tracy, Becca, my Mom and I. Brian also came but wasn't aloud to hang out. =) Sorry Brian but thanks for driving Becca out. We all drove up to Provo and ate at the Old Spaghetti Factory which was way good. I had never been there and the food is awesome. We got to see baby Claire. (Which I hope I spelled her name right.) She is so CUTE!!! I think she is a good mix of both Becca and Brian. After lunch we got to do some shopping. Man I forgot how crazy Orem and Provo people are!!! It was a mad house! Then to finish off the day we went to Costco. I thought it was bad down here but that place is busier than Vegas!!
To the girls- Thank you so much for coming. I needed this trip cuz I missed you guys. I had alot of fun and I can't wait for the next one! Maybe we should go somewhere exotic!!! Also thank you to the guys for letting their wives come out and for babysitting. THANKS EVERYONE!!!!

Keeta again

I know another blog about Keeta but I have great news about her. We have her potty trained! It is so nice that she runs to the door instead of leaving wonderful surprises!! HA HA HA Also she has decided that everything Jaxsen has she has to have and he can't. She has taken over his bed even tho we have caught the two of them in Jaxsen's bed together. So I decided she needed her own bed and her own blanket to chew on. She LOVES her bed. Which is good so now maybe she will leave Jaxsens stuff alone.

She is getting so big! I can't believe how fast she is growing. I swear when we first got her she barely fit in my hand and now she is a huge handful! I always thought Jaxsen was alittle hyper cuz he would run around the house for no reason, but Keeta does it now and it is pretty funny to watch. She has such long legs that she sticks out in front of her. I'm pretty sure most dogs bend their front legs but she sticks them out there like sticks.

Keeta in her bed the night I brought it home.




Winter Fun

Acouple weekends ago Kyle and I went out for our first razor ride of the year. It was also the first time we had gone in the snow with the razor and the first time Kyle has been in it since his back surgery. We didn't know what to expect. We had so much fun. The day before we went out to the same place with the Sameri which sort of got stuck and then the big diesel truck. The truck we got stuck in. We had to call one of Kyle's friends to come and pull us out. It was pretty funny. It took acouple tries to get us out of the snow and once we were free his friend decided that we should go fourwheeling with the trucks. I was worried we would get stuck again but atleast we weren't there alone. These first two pictures are of where we got stuck. You aren't suppose to be able to see dirt cuz there was ALOT of snow on the ground.
These last pics are of us riding around on the razor. I didn't think would be much fun on the snow but I was surprised. I can't wait for it to snow again so we can go back out. Don't get me wrong I'm glad we are having nice warm weather but now that we can have fun in the snow I won't mind it if is snows again.

Introducing...........KEETA!!!

Well I never thought I would say it but We got another puppy!!! We have always talked about getting another dog since Max but never did we really mean it =) But a week and a half ago we were looking on KSL and spotted her and her owner said his wife was forcing him to get rid of her. She was so cute and here in town. We went back and forth and Kyle said it was up to me. I would get all excited and then I would tell myself we don't need another dog. But here she is. I couldn't help myself. She is so much fun!!! We have had her for a week and the potty training is actually going pretty well. She weighs about 2 pounds and she is 2 and a half months old.
Here she is doing what she does best. She wants to bite everything. I'm having a hard time getting her to only chew her toys.
This is pretty much the other thing she does best. SLEEP!!! This is when we like her best =) She sleeps in the weirdest positions. She likes her head lower than her body and she has to be near your face. Which sometimes isn't the best cuz she latches onto your lip.

This is Keeta in the tub having her first bath. She HATED it. She kept shivering for about 30 mins after I took her out of the tub. But she slept for a long time. Which was way nice.

Jaxsen has a blanket that he has had since I got him and he loves this thing. But this picture shows how much Keeta likes it too. Anything he has she has to have. So you can pretty much tell he isn't her biggest fan. =) They are getting better. I should have gotten a puppy when Jaxsen was younger. He is 5 1/2 years old and so he doesn't have the same energy that Keeta has. I'm way excited for her to grow up and these two can be friends.

Christmas 09

This Christmas Kyle and I decided we wouldn't over do it, but he never listens to me. Back in October Kyle talked me into letting him get a bullet reloading system and he would consider that Christmas. Well as you can see he won. It has been nice though cuz he was able to get up after surgery and spend some time reloading bullets and I think that helped motivate him in getting better. He also humored me on Christmas day by letting me take a picture of him with it. =)
I got an awesome ipod docking stereo system. My regular stereo broke and so Kyle surprised me with a new one. It is AWESOME!!! Then as you can see my friend Becca got me a pug calendar which only makes me want another pug! and my friend Sunny got me a mug that has my favorite pictures of Jaxsen on it. This was a good Christmas =) We also recieved a cool book that my mom put together of pictures from our last family reunion. It was way neat to look at the pictures. I never would have thought to put them in a book. Thank you Mom!!!


Well this next picture is of Jaxsen and his present. He has a soccor ball that he just loves but he ends up ruining it after awhile so I got him a new ball that I'm pretty sure he can't ruin. It is pretty fun to watch him play with it cuz he can't see where he is going when it is in his mouth =)
We had a great Christmas with Kyle's family. We had some yummy food at his sister's house and his mother's house. We saw lots of family we don't see very often. I wasn't in much of a Christmas mood but being around family sure helped out alot.
