Going UP!

Sorry it has been awhile since I updated about the house but we have had a busy few weeks! However the house is coming along and it is going up nicely! Thanks to some remarkable help and I am still amazed at the things Tyler can do! Seriously he is amazing!

Also Maddex has been a huge help he goes into the house often and "helps"! He just like being around his dad and feeling important, he is acutally a really big help with pulling nails out that are low to the ground!

Ok so here is where we left off this is from the dinning room facing toward the soon to be master and the kitchen.

Now this is what it looks like! See how we have extended the Master bedroom wall out a bit and you can see where the door will be. Also there is a closet on the other side of that cement chimney thing that we couldn't take down but it actually worked out perfectly to extend from that to the bathroom wall and make it a closet!

Through the kitchen. About where I am standing will be a large island going out toward the boysish.

Now to the new addition! This is from the far corner of the addition soon to be living room. You are looking at the new front door area. Where Ty is standing will be an entry way with a cute bench and hooks and a place for every one's shoes!

New front porch and front door! The two big posts in the front will be pillars with cute fencing around. It will match on the other side but you cant see it because it is behind the plywood.

Side view, also if you can picture where the entry way is there will be another small window in that area.
What do you think so far? I am glad it is coming along and seems to be going rather fast! Thanks for the help from everyone! I am sure glad to have Tyler who can do it all and do it well!

December 2010

December came and went in about the blink of an eye! I felt like we were busy every single day, with birthdays, snow days, sick days, holidays, and more! Well have a look for your self!

Started out with lots of snow that proved to be LOTS of fun for the boys! Grandpa and Maddex made an adorable snowman one moring and Maddex was SO proud!

Then we got to see Santa and surprisingly Jett was not to afraid this year!

Maddex is never afraid, he just jumps up there and yells "I want a train and a fourwheeler!" Says thanks and hopps down!

Jett got his very first haircut! Yes he is 2 years old and has NEVER had his hair cut, my kids just dont grow hair for the longest time?

He did so good, he didn't wiggle or get afraid or anything! It was really cute to watch him!

Then the day before their birthdays (which are the 8th and 9th) each of my boys got STREP THROAT! ARGH! So we had to cancel their birthday party and we were all sad.

So we still had some cake and icecream (which late was thrown up by the boys). As you can see Maddex is not his normal self he really did not feel well! But dont you love their cakes! Jett's was a turtle and Maddex's was Thomas the Train because for some reason he is obsessed with it right now?

Not happy and not feeling well at all!

Their main gift was this awesome train table that they love to play with and have had countless hours of imagination and creation time! It is super fun to see what each of them do and pretend!

We got to go to Salt Lake and see the lights with my family and it was so much fun. We also went to Music and the Spoken Word on Sunday morning and it was beautiful!! I love music it was so incredible to hear it right there!

We had some fun in the Hotel rooms :)

The Whole family at the lights in Temple Square! Thanks Mom and Dad for getting this together and for the fun memories!

It was a little chilly but we bundled up and it was actually quite pleasant! Even my boys had a fun time seeing all the lights and the beautiful temple!

The BEAUTIFUL Salt Lake City Temple!
Some more fun in the snow! This is Maddex and Baylee then Dax and Addison being pulled by the fourwheeler it was so fun and they had a blast!

Jett rides the fourwheeler because he doesn't have gloves that he can grip anything with so he rides and I think he likes that better anyway! This is Mad and Dax being pulled, they are the best of buddies and it is so fun to watch them hang out together!

Our Christmas Pic!
Merry Christmas!
I will have another post of just Christmas coming soon!

Day 11 (whats in my makeup bag)

I dont wear a ton of makeup but I do wear a ton of mascara to make my eyes bigger. So my favorite thing in my makeup bag is my Loreal Volumize Mascara and I LOVE this stuff! I also found so me new eye shadow that is shiny and very pretty. Bonus was that it was from family doller so it was very inexpensive! I also have a eyelash curler and can not go anywhere with out that because my lashes grow straight out and it looks very funn if they are not curled. Other than that there is not much anything else!

Hmm I dont have pic of all my faves but I can tell you about them!

Favorite sorta fast food place is either Five Guys Burger and Fries or Costa Vida mmmm so yummy!

Favorite nice sit down place to eat would be either Olive Garden, Cheesecake Factory, or PF Changes! Yes PLEASE!

Favorite place in my little town to eat is definitly RUPES BURGERS! There are more memories in that place than I can count on my hands and toes most of them in High School since that was the best hang out. But now I have some of my own family and of Tyler and I! BONUS It is less than a mile away from our new house that we will live in after we are done remodeling it! Yahoo for rootbeer flavored icecream cones!

Day 7 (dream wedding)

Already had it! The only thing I would change would be the weather, it was supposed to be this very beautiful outdoor wedding. But when it came time for the reception it did not happen so we moved to the old church. I was not happy but it was still very pretty!


From the time we were done with the temple and driving home it went from beautiful sunshine to clouds and down about 45 degrees!

Day 6 (pet I would like to have)

I have a dog and that is all I really ever want as a pet.

Tyler on the other hand would like horses, and any reptile you can imagine! NO THANKS!
