4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them


Quirk Numero Uno
If Josh and I leave for a vacation or go out of town, I have to make sure the house is clean or I will not be able to go drives Josh up the wall. I always have a set night of the week that I like to clean the entire house, (also drives him crazy). I would rather not clean on the weekend and leave those days open for something fun.

Quirk Numero Dos
When I am alone in the car driving, you bet I am singing at the top of my lungs, pretending like I am Diana Ross or something. I love to sing along to my ipod while taking long bike rides. If anyone ever sees a crazy lady on the highway riding her bike singing out loud, don't look back just know its me.
Quirk Numero Tres
I can not stand to go to the movies, its not the movie part I hate. It's once I get into the movie theater and people are laughing and talking all the time, sends me through the roof. I can't stand to hear people talk during a movie. Thank goodness for the redbox I can watch new releases for 1.00 rather than the 6.50 charge (bonus)
Quirk Numero Quatro
You know the little bit of dust that accumulates on your stereo in your car that sits right on the window that shows the time or the station you are on. My husband likes to get in my car and wipe that off with his finger, I'm not sure why but that drives me nuts!! I get so mad, why I'm not quite sure.
Quirk Numero Cinco
At night right before I am ready to go to bed. I spend like an hour in the bathroom getting ready for bed. The funny thing is I'm not really even doing anything. Wash my face, brush my teeth, usually take my hair out of a pony tail, and you know use the bathroom. Other than that its it. It a habit that I always just hang out I think it just helps me to wind down. Strange I know.
Sorry Honey I can't help it!
Quirk Numero Seis (not sure on the spelling on six)
I hope all the mom's out there won't think I am totally crazy. I haven't and not sure I am ready just yet to let Huntyr play in places like the playlands at mcd's and the fun park, where there are so many kids, with snot noses and dirty other parts. I'm not saying that Huntyr is always the cleanest but those places I think are always a festation of serious germs. I get sick just thinking of these places.
There you have it my 6 crazy quirks, not sure if they are lame or just me, but you asked for it so you got it (thanks Haylee). I now tag, Mandy, Tara, Gentry, Jackie, Charee, Shelli

I haven't shown very much of the house lately, but it is still coming along. At this point they are doing all the finish work inside the house and we should hopefully be able to start painting early next week. I am really excited about the paint I picked out some really cool colors that I think will go with the theme of the house. I can't wait to show everyone when that part gets done. Actually just can't wait for it to be done in general.

Happy Birthday Baby

I really can't believe that my little baby has turned 2. He had the most specatular day (I'm sure if I was 2 this day rocked) It started out by heading to the store and picking him some ballons of his choice, no doubt he picked the ballons with the big fire truck on them. Then to the bakery to pick up the cupcakes I had ordered for his little party. I know 2 years old and he is having a party, but I'm the mom and I wanted to make it the best ever. We went to the park where his cousins came to play and have treats. Josh and I gave Huntyr a trike that is adjustable so it can grow with him the bigger he gets, it was a big hit. He also got bubbles, and a motorcyle toy, dump trucks, tractors and more. Everything he loves. Thanks everbody!

After the party at the park it was unfortuately nap time so we brought him up for a little rest. When he woke up his cousins showed up at the house and Grandma got the slip and slide out and he loved it. I think all the kids had fun. I am so glad he had such a good day and that his birthday was a success.

I can't believe we have had him for 2 years. I look at him often and wonder what we did before without him. I love him so much and I am blessed to have him call me mommy.

Enjoy the slides from the happy day!

Huntyr's First Hair Cut

I heard some where that it's bad luck to cut your kids hair before they were 2, well I had to get it done one day prior to his 2nd birthday. I can't believe how good he was, he sat in the chair and let Mandy cut his hair, he was awesome. I saved some of the curls for my scrapbook. He is so dang cute and looks so grown up.


Thanks Mandy you did a fantastic job!

Little Game

I got this from Haylee's blog and it looks like fun!

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.EVERYBODY PLAY! I want to see what memories are out there!

Shaving a little early

I couldn't resist taking these shots. We were getting ready for church today and in the middle of shaving Huntyr was over taken by the white stuff that covered his daddy's face. Next thing I know Josh is asking him if he wants to shave and he said yes, so Josh got him all lathered up.
I tell ya, I can't leave these boys alone for one second :)


PS, sorry about the garment shots!

"Best" week in Review

4th of July
We had a lot of fun this day as well. All my family, well most of us went to Lava Hot Springs for a day in the sun. It was a lot of fun. We all brought our own treats to share and had a blast in the water. We finally got Huntyr to go down the little kiddy slides and then that was all he wanted to do.

Tyler and Tyson jumped off the 3rd story tower, you will see the picture of Tyler in a swan dive. Tyson and Brandy had fun on the slide and in the water, but most of all with each other, love you guys!! (Tyson is my little brother)

Tyler Andrea, BrylieAnn and Brooklyn I think enjoyed being there with family (Tyler is my brother, for those of you who don't know) The best was watching BrylieAnn and Huntyr play around in the little tent. It is so much fun to see little kids interact with each other. Huntyr is just 4 months younger than her, you would never know it from his size.

Kandi and Rogers where there with his 2 kids. I know they had a blast, we all left early and I think they stayed for another 4 hours.

On another note, after Tyler had jumped off the 3rd tower on the way home he was really having some pain in his ear. He ended up going to the emergency room when he got home. He had really done some damage to his ear. The doctors had to go in and clean things out and take some pieces out of his ear. I think from juimping that high into the water sometimes just puts to much pressure on the ears. I hope you are feeling better Tyler!

other than this little adventure, it was fun for everybody!


My little family, I love those boys!!

"Best" Week in Review Continued

3rd of July
I'm with Hayley on this one, why does Logan celebrate on the 3rd. Anyway its always a big party at the in-laws. They live in North Logan close to USU so we always go to their house and have a big bbq and watch the fireworks. I think this time we counted close to 60 people had come. Its a lot of fun because not only is it Josh's family, cousins, aunts, uncles, but my family comes and joins in the party.
We always have a big water slide for the kids, sparklers and little glow in the dark bracelets which were a big hit this year. It was nice to have those I could keep a close eye on Huntyr in the dark.


All the guys, Josh, his cousins, my brother and some friends are all in the mix.
Huntyr is just getting to try a sparkler for the first time, he wasn't to sure about them. (notice the big slide in the back.

"Best" Week in Review Continued again

Okay so let me first start with the house (I know, boring right!) Not for me, its getting to be so exciting. We are now working on the inside of the house. I can truly see an end in sight. Serious love goes out to my brother Brady for hurrying this little project along. For those of you who don't know Brady is our contractor and he is doing most (okay all) the work of making sure the contractors show up, setting up the inspections and just making sure it all goes smooth. Thank you Goose Ridge Builders, Brady Ward.

Now let me back up a little, back to Tuesday. Brady was working on another house and while he was working he was working with some kind of nail gun that shoots nails into concreate. The nails are the size of a .22 shell. You have to cock the gun back and then is shoots through the concreate. Well the gun miss fired and he shot the nail through his hand. Needless to say he broke most of the bones in his hand. It is in a temporay cast. They can't cast it because of the open wound and they are worried about infection.

Okay so Wednesday where was he, he was at my house framing up my fireplace. I seriously can't believe what a hard worker he is. My hat goes off to the man for working the next day after he broke his hand. I can't say thank you enough Brady, Thank you!

Here are a few of the pictures from the house. I just took these this week. The stucco on the house is done and they will start on the rock this week. Also this week they will insulate and sheetrock. So the inside stuff is starting, I can't believe how fast it is going.
