BEST FRIENDS!!!

A little over a year ago, two of the most amazing things came into our lives - Ashley and Dak! It has been such a blessing for ALL of us! Dax and Dak (say that 5 times fast) are a month different in age and they get along so dang good. Ashley and I have been in a lot of the same situations in our lives and we get along like sisters. How lucky are all 4 of us???

Last night Dak was at our house and it was time to relax and watch a movie before his momma came to get him. So I made them a bed on the floor, made them choco and turned on a movie. I told them to relax and have quiet time and about 5 minutes later was this:

Dax: Mom, I just want to talk to Dak. Can we just talk?
Dak: No! Let's smuggle!!!

Seriously, these boys are so sweet and fun!

Ah.... A Bad Word...

Grandma Jen: Dax you are FULL of vinegar.

Dax: AH! Grandma, you said a bad word!!!

GJ: What did I say???

Dax: P... P.... P... STUPID!!!!

Yep, Grandma Jen is right! This boy is full of vinegar!

2012 - A New Start!

Happy New Year!!!

With the New Year, I have made some resolutions and this year I am STICKING TO IT!

Here they are:

1. Lose Weight/Become a healthy me!!! I am truly doing it this time.

2. Blog - And thus I am here!

3. Organize my life, so I can afford/feel comfortable to purchase my home at the end of the year.

4. Learn to be happy with myself. I struggle with this SO VERY much and I am not going to let myself do it anymore!

5. Be the BEST me! I know what this consumes of (:

So.... LET'S DO THIS!!!

***Lake Powell***



Dax and I went to Lake Powell this weekend with my family. It was a great trip! I was worried about Dax not liking the water and boat, but he loved and he was a trooper. We had a really good time and enjoyed the time we spent with our family. It is always nice to be home and in dry clothes.

Well it is official, I have a rootin' tootin' little cowboy on my hands and I wouldn't have it any other way. Dax LOVES to wear his cowby hat and boots and be JUST LIKE Gampa Chad. They have such a blast together, sometimes it is hard to know who is having more fun... Dax or Gampa. Dax has been doing a Mini 4H thing, where we go every Wednesday afternoon and he learns how to ride the horse. He rides Jonie's ropin' horse Cecil and he thinks that he is pretty neat on that horse and so do the rest of us. The 4H had a show to end the year a few weeks ago and Dax got to participate, even though he is only 2-years-old.

***Camera Fun***

Dax loves to take pictures on my phone and then look through them. Sometimes I will end up with 10 or 15 pictures from one 'sitting.' When we look at them he always makes fun little comments like "Oh cute" or just "ooohhh." Here are a few that we have taken.
