A long week and lots to write about...

I have so much to blog about. We have been out of town and I haven’t had a chance to update my blog so this is a long one!!

I had the first part of this post ready to put on my blog but then we had to leave for Utah so here it is...

Our friends Haley and Jer had a house warming party. It was a lot of fun and their new house is really nice. Brody has a blast hanging out with everyone. Him and Cody were dancing and being so cute! Sydney was the photographer. I gave her my camera (I never give anyone my camera!! But she did good…) and she took so many pictures of everyone. We went swimming and had a lot of fun.

































Would it be a party without Keith showing his butt?? I think NOT




Cody doing the robot...


I have a lot more pictures... Ill email everyone what I have later :)


On Saturday August 30th my Uncle Scotty passed away. We all knew it was going to happen but we could never imagine the emotions everyone went through. Scotty was such a great person. He was never angry or upset, he was always happy. He was born handicapped and had kidney problems. He wasn’t suppose to live past 6 weeks and he past away at the age of 46! Can you believe that! What a miracle he was. He brought so much joy to everyone. I am so glad I went up there when I did and I was able to spend some time with him before he past away. Brody, Shane and I drove up there for the funeral and spent some time afterwards with everyone.
My grandparents are great people. They took care of Scotty every single day since he was born and never complained or wished anything different. I hope that they get through this hard time and adjust to the changes in the house now that he is gone. Im glad we have such a strong family that can help them during this time and make it a little easier for them.

My cousin Brittany made this star and it turned out so good...




















This is one of the kids that Scotty went to school with












We let go red and blue balloons (Scottys favorite colors)


It was a beautiful service. Grandma and Grandpa couldnt of asked for a better one and Scotty deserved it.











Here is Steve and Shelly and their family




After the service we went back to the church for dinner and here are just a few pictures I got:

On our way home from Utah we stopped in Vegas to show Brody Circus Circus. He had a blast. We saw a couple shows at Circus Circus and they were pretty neat. Brody played some games and won some prizes and we had fun! Here are some pictures of Brody before we went to Utah and some of him at circus circus.

Brody playing on the trampoline before we left:

On our way home there were two beautiful rainbows next to us and it was the first time I saw the end of a rainbow... and just my luck, no pot of gold!

Now were at home and just getting things cleaned up. Lots of laundry and cleaning to do. Brody hates the weather here. Its to hot for him to go outside but it should start cooling down soon… I hope :)
I am making CD's of all the pictures from Scottys service for everyone in Utah so Ill be getting those to you soon.

Anyways, that’s all for now.

Ok 6 Random Things About Me :)

1. Im my worst critique. I have a hard time taking compliments and Im really hard on myself. I really need to improve on that...

2. I have a carpet line fetish. Funny huh - but ya its true. I am obsessed with my carpet having those "I just vacuumed" lines. I vacuum at least 1 time a day if not twice (depends on if we have company or not)...

3. Im addicted to my camera (not sure if thats really "random" everyone and their dog knows that. There is hardly a time you would see me without it. I try to take tons of pictures to improve and lately I just cant seem to put it down.

4. I love it when it storms. I love the smell of rain and when the clouds cover the sun. I love dressing warm in sweatshirts and jeans. Lot better than summer thats for sure!!

5. I like long road trips and rides in the jeep. Its so nice to get away sometimes from the everyday things. Change of atmosphere is great once in a while.

6. I love my family and friends very much and hold a special place for each of them in my heart. My son and fiance mean the world to me. I would do anything for my family and friends. My family and friends mean everything to me and without them - what do you have ya know...


Okay, now I tag- Cindy, Brittany, BreeAnn, Kayla and Kati
