May Again! (sorry forgot some items)

During May, we also got the privilege to attend Tamera & Mike Brown's Wedding. So much fun! It was a great day.


In February Greg surprised me with a gift. He was in wood shop at school and he made me a bassinet for Calvin (and more I hope in the future). I was in love the moment I saw it.


It was so good that it was put in a UVU Wood Shop Show and Greg received 3rd place. Don't worry the school spelled his name wrong, but Greg fixed it.


Here are some of the other projects Greg completed in Wood Shop. First shelves for the kids. Second picture is the door of his spice cabinet.


Greg is happy, he has decided to get a Minor Degree in Wood Shop/Cabinetry. I just keeping telling him I will support him in whatever he chooses.

Now May Flowers. hehe....

May was a fun month for us. We enjoyed ourselves and went camping down to the dunes with my parents and extended family. The kids loved riding the wheeler and playing in the sand. One day I want a sand box in my backyard for them.



Grandpa "Let go" as Jasen would say. They next day we went to Sand Mountain and watched the crazy people drive up the mountain. No wrecks that we saw, just a storm moving in that we had to drive back in. Calvin did not like that every much. Ouch.


It was a fun mini vacation. May was the chore of getting the house ready for the baby. The kids had fun one day while playing. So cute Jasen and Mckenly's great pose.

April Showers!!!

Its April that means Easter!!! But the first of the month I caught Jasen playing with Mckenlys pretty castle. I don't mind this at all, it is good for him. It was just really cute.


Easter is here, the kids were so excited. Jasen got to help Mckenly color eggs.


All Jasen wanted was candy! Mckenly loved looking for the eggs. We went to Grandma Ewell's Saturday. They had a ball.


Me around seven months pregnant.


The next day was Easter, they were excited that the Easter bunny brought them pillow pets.


Then off to Grandma and papa Dorius. They never got enough of finding eggs.


I just had to get a pic of Grandma's flower!


The rest of our April was great. I am so grateful and blessed. I don't where I would be without my kids.
(Sorry not sure what happened on some of the text. I could remove the link to it. If you know how to fix it, just let me know. Thanks)

Time to Update!!! March 2011

Hey all, I will be on here more I promise. I need to update everyone since March. Wow! One post at a time. I will do a post for the whole month then till now. In March the kids and I, my Sis Millie, Norm, Amber and the kids went to Hoggle Zoo. This was Mckenly and Jasen's first time. They loved it.

The Kids were in heaven. They didn't know what to stop and look at. Jasen loved the animals the monkeys the most I think.



He just couldn't get enough of it. Mckenly just loved being with the kids.



After a long day Jasen fell asleep Mckenly would let me take any more pictures and I think Norm got tired of caring Jasen. It was good memories.

Projects!

I have been on this crafting spree. I have a lot of items I want to create or craft. So I am doing them. Here are two that I have finished. I am in love with them both. I can kinda get to involed and let my self down, but I took my time. This first one I found on this website Freshly Picked. It is how to make a chandelier out of wax paper. The project cost me around $10. It looks great in the kid's room. I forgot to take a before picture, but the picture of the before light on the website is the same as the kid's light.
Mckenly loves it as well. Which is a good thing. It's not coming down. :)
My other project is one step from being done. I have a pair of old white shoes. I don't even remember where I bought them. I didn't want to throw them away. I was in blogland yesterday and I saw a post that someone painted their shoes. That is when I started googling Shoe Redo. I can to this. I found this great website Grosgrain and bam a redo for a flat. Just what I was looking for. I was givein a bag of fabric from a YW Leader for a YW project. In the pile of fabric was a yellow/white/brown printed fabric. I knew I wanted to save it for something fun. Lisa one of my friends wore yellow shoes to church last week. Since then I wanted yellow shoes. So the cute fabric became my new shoe. I did remember to take a before picture. This is sad, the shoe just needed to be in the trash.
I love flats as much as heels. I wore this out. So I started with taking off the ribbon and bow that went around the shoe. then I followed these steps here till I got this.

I still need to glue in the white fabric for the sole. I am also going to buy a ribbon to go around the top. The Mod Podge is kinda rough, but all in all I love my yellow shoes! More projects are to come

Busy Life!

I have been really bad at blogging. I love searching other blogs, but I never get around to posting on mine! One day I will be better, but today is not the day. Hehe... Just a update on our life. We have been enjoying everyday as it comes. In January we went to a new play ground in Park City. It is called Monkey Mountain. (my parents are friends with the owners) It was the grand opening we went to. The kids had a blast.

Cameron and Caleb tagged along. Mckenly loved that.
Cameron and Jasen just ran around and did their own thing.


After that we had our ultrasound of the Baby. The Baby is healthy as could be. We couldn't ask for anything better. The kids are super excited. Jasen is in love with my belly, and Mckenly has a pretend baby in her tummy. lol

Still planning on having this child July 4th. We will just see what happens.

I love the way kids learn and grow up. Mckenly has gotten a sassy attitude and Jasen is a copycat. But they love each other so much. They play okay together on most days. Hehe..


This past week we had the joy of going to the zoo with Norm, Amber, Millie and all the kids. Pictures are coming, stay tuned.
