My Resolutions.....

So for a while now I've been thinking about the "New Year" and all the stupid resolutions that people make (and brake) and I really wanted to try and come up with something that I could and would stick with. I thought about putting an actual number to my ever-lasting weight loss goals, but I don't want to set myself up to fail or set the bar too low, so that's no good. I thought of saying that I wouldn't miss one week of church all year, but let's be realistic, I'm probably gonna skip a few, so that one's shot. So what I finally came up with is probably the simplest, common little goal, but it's one that I can't say that I always follow, and that is my very favorite quote from President Hinckley: "Try a little harder to be a little better." I know that sounds way corny coming from me because I'm not serious alot of the time, but I am really going to try and take this to heart this year and see where it takes me! Anyways, Happy New Year! (just a tad late with that, but who cares!!)

It's Time...

Okay, I've been thinking about taking this thing private for a while now, and my sister Tracie just told me a freaky story about who could potentially be checking out these things, so that pushed me over the edge. I will leave it public for about a week or so, so let me know if you'd like to stay on my reading list and I'll be sure to add you! Thanks, and safe & happy blogging!! :)

MVP!! (for the 3rd time!!!) :)

Yes that's right folks!! Payton Manning won his 3rd MVP for the 2008-2009 NFL Season! Way to go Payton, I never doubted you!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Bookie Boo Boo!!

Yeah Brooklyn! Yes, she turned 2 years old on Monday! I seriously can't believe my little baby is 2 already! This one went by very fast! We're enjoying every minute of her growing up and we love her sooooo much! She has never met food that she doesn't immediately love so it's hard to say what she likes and doesn't like! She calls all of us by name now (except for Libbie who is 'Wibbie' and Corbin who for some reason is 'Cocoa'!) She loves to scream out your name very loudly if you don't respond the first time and Trent swears that she just does it to see how long it will take you to turn around and say WHAT! She loves to dance, sing and play dress-up. We love our little BooBoo so much and we're so glad that she's in our family! Above are some random pics from her couple b-day parties!

Trent Turns 30!!! HA! HA! HA!

Trent's mom and he have a long running joke about their friend 'Gretchin' who was nice enough to show up to his birthday dinner! Isn't she gorgeous?? Lol
Thanks to everyone who took the time over a busy week to come to Trent's birthday celebration! We had fun going to dinner and bowling after!

So ya, Trent turned the big 3-0 this Dec! Way to go Honey, you made it!!! We had a great time celebrating and totally making fun of him all week! He was a really good sport and he really doesn't care about hitting that next decade! We love you Trent and here's to the next 30 years!!

Don't mind Trent's expression in any of these pictures, I love you honey, but he has looked high or asleep in every pic we've ever taken! (yes, including our wedding photos!)

Holy Cow!! It's Been A While!!!!

Okay it has definitley been way too long since I updated this blog so hold on tight, it's gonna be a marathon! (if my way bad connection doesn't kick me off in the middle like it has been!)

So the last time I updated was right after Halloween I think so a quick Happy November Birthday shout-out to: Brandon, Justin, Shawn, Bryce, Nina and of course myself! We had some great times in November with the fam celebrating b-days and Thanksgiving! It was a very busy month for everyone I'm sure, so no excuses I will just try and get better!

Now we come to December! Merry Christmas to everyone out there! I am officially the worst freind ever for not getting my act together and at least getting my cards out this year! I don't know what the deal has been but I seriously feel like I haven't sat down for 3 months. We have had one thing after another going on and after the kids go back to school in January I just told myself that enough is enough! I need to stop and catch my breath for a bit before I take on any new projects, so that should leave me more time for a few things I enjoy like catching up on blogs and just hanging out with my kids and friends!

Anyways, back to December... A very Happy Birthday to my mom, Trent's mom, Trent (who we'll get to in a moment) and last but certainly not least, Brooklyn (who we'll also get to in a moment!)

Well that's all for this post, I'll get a bunch of pics up from Christmas shortly!
