She's back

About this time of year for the last 3 years a little mama bird builds a nest above our front door, she builds it in my garland that goes around the door. It might have something to do with the lights that are in the garland, maybe it helps keep the baby eggs warm:)

I think it's amazing how the mama bird builds the nest with her little beak, i actually saw her build it this year. She would leave for awhile then come back with a mouth full of stuff and build away.

If you come to my house look out because she almost takes my head off as she flies away every time i walk up to the door.
These pictures are kinda blurry cause it's kinda high up there, i just lift my hand up as high as i can and snap a shot.
First there was one.

Then two.

Then four.

Hopefully this year the neighborhood cat won't get them, last year the cat jumped up and knocked the eggs down:(

Just another day in paradise

Well last Sunday after church we headed up to paradise, logan to visit dustin's mom. She had to have back surgery may 8, again after just having it done weeks prior due to some problems. She is such a strong women and i totally look up to her, she wanted to get up and pick up her grand kids and hug them and kiss them. She did sneak in a couple hugs but for the most part we tried to make her stay in bed. The kids love it up at grandmas house, they love the horses in the back. So that is where the kids spent most of the time. They also love grandmas porch swing

The kids got the biggest kick out of the mirror on grandmas bed, i caught them making face's.

We love going up to visit grandma, we hate that it's not that often but it can be hard to find time when dustin is home so that we can go as a family. We love you grandma Fran!!

Party Party Party!!!!

The girls chose to have a Black & Pink Zebra party this year.

They had a friend party on Friday after school and our family came over for a BBQ on Saturday night.

They wanted Just Dance 2 and Just Dance for kids

I needed a zebra for our pin the tail on the Zebra game, and check out this cute zebra my husband drew for me. I never knew i was married to an artist:)

Party favors: candy,bracelets, zebra tattoos

Me and jace decorated the sidewalk with sidewalk chalk for the girls. When they got off the bus and saw it they were so excited.

The girls concentrating on making their gumball bracelets

All the girls sang heavy heavy hangover my poor head what do you wish with a bump on your head. Then smacked them with the gift lol.

Later that night i had to run to the store and when i got home i saw this, all their gifts lined up on the floor and they were sound asleep. Two happy girls!!

Saturday we had family over for a BBQ.

This is Tayler's excited face when she saw that grandma margee had given her 5 bucks in her card.

I really do have the best family :)

The girls got spoiled darling swimsuits, toys, clothes, money, books etc.

We missed the dance family:(

The girls got to choose anywhere they wanted for dinner, and out of all places they chose subway. What good girls i have haha, cause that's not where i would have chosen to eat on my birthday.

Father & Sons

Dustin took jace to our ward Father & sons this weekend.

Jace was so very excited, it couldn't have came at a better time because jace has been going through daddy with drawls. He cries for him while he is at work EVERYDAY!!!

This morning i was talking with the second counselor in our bishopric and he said it was so fun hanging out with your husband and son this weekend. He said jace is a funny little kid, he also said he got a kick out of my son only responding to bubba and not Jace. He said the boys kept saying jace and he wouldn't answer but the second they would say bubba he would respond.

Jace wakes up a lot in the night and walks into our room, dustin said that in the middle of the night jace stood up and walked right into the wall of the tent thinking he was home.

I am so glad they got the time to hang out together this weekend as father & son and to get to know our new ward better.

Hilarious!!

So i had to write this down before i forget. The other night as we were sitting down for dinner jace said he wanted to say the prayer. His prayer was short & sweet "Dear heavenly father please bless daddy at work & mommy at walmart, thank you." This kid cracks me up daily when he's not being a crazy boy.

Dustin took him to our ward Father & Sons tonight and while part of me was so excited for them to have time together part of me was a little nervous. Jace was so excited and was so cute with his bag all packed and ready to go have fun with dad. I can't wait to see him tomorrow and see how it went. He left with just finding out he had an ear infection so i hope he sleeps good. I sure love my boys and miss them when this house is this quiet.

HaPpY 7th BiRtHdAy TaYlEr & MeGaN

I can't believe my girls are 7, where have the last 7 years gone.

I remeber all too clear the day 7 years ago that my sweet baby girls were born.

Going to the hospital not knowing i would be having my babies, i kept thinking im not having these babies today i am only 7 months pregnant. Well a a few hours after getting to the hospital they were born, and a few weeks later they were able to go home.

We could not have been happier they were home with us.

My sweet sister in law took these great pictures which i love. She is AWESOME!!!
