More Proof

I have more proof that I have the greatest husband in the world. This morning he had just left for work, I mean probably not even out of the driveway when he called.
"Rascal Flatts will be in town on the 26th."
"I know, that's today."
"No it's not, oh wait yeah it is. Do you want to go? Get online and see if you can still get tickets."
"But I can't I am going to the temple open house today."
"I can't either I've got homework, but if I had known I would have gotten you tickets."
It may seem small to all of you, but to me that was as good as having the tickets to go to the concert. He knows I love the band and was willing to spend the money so that I could go. AAAAAH. I love my hubby. Just thinking about that today makes me smile and realize he is "SIMPLY THE BEST"

Modbe

For all of you that are looking for a new swimsuit that is modest but adorable. Here you go. I love Modbe suits they are super cute. The consultant is my sister in laws, sister Adrienne. If you want anything click HERE. This is the one I want.

From the past

I am trying to clear my cell phone of all the pics that I actually want to keep (I am getting a new phone tomorrow). And I laughed and kindof smiled at some of the pics so I thought I would share.
Little Cait's first day at dance. Isn't she adorable. She was just 3.
Remember that huge lip. The pic was taken the day she had a steroid shot put in it. It double in size from even that after the shot and now is barely noticeable.
Cait asleep in a shopping cart at Costco. She wasn't quite 3 yet.
These two are of my baby Buddy. I don't have a lot of pics of him, being he was one when we got our first digital camera. So I just smiled to see these pics again. Love them

Laugh It Up!!

While Bugs and I were talking today, prom got brought up. I laughed and said she should see my prom dress. When I brought it out of my closet, she laughed. I don't blame her it is huge and a little embarrassing now that I think of it. Actually, Dave laughs at me all the time. Tells me I was a big peach poof ball. My defense is this: I lived in Gunnison and the only dress shop in town had huge dresses with lots of ruffles. As you all should know, this is my two way dream. Either I am going to be a princess one day or I will live on a plantation and wear big puffy dresses all day every day. They won't be peach and have a a gazillion ruffles, but they will be huge.

Anyway, once the girls saw it they all had to try it on. I just took a pic of Cait in it. I still love it and it's beautiful. Laugh it up if you want to, but I loved feeling like a princess for a day.

And as you can see I was not the only one that wore such a huge dress. These two lovelies were my best friends in high school and this ad for the dress shop was in the County Fair Magazine.

I am so SPOILED!

One of my very fave holiday's is today, V-day. Since our first V-day, it has always been great. Surprise after surprise. This year, I took the girls to a doc appointment in SLC (yesterday) and while I was out my husband was sneaking behind my back. He even called and put on a show about being mad at the dog to throw me off. When I got home, figuring I would have to calm him down, I walked in and instantly our song started to play (When We Dance by Sting. It was playing our first V-day when he told me he loved me. AAAAH). He had the living room all set up for a candle light dinner (yummy) It was so nice. He surprises me like this all the time and year after year I have fallen for it. After dinner we saw one of the worst movies ever (He's just not that into you, don't go see it if you haven't already. The previews look better than the movie actually is). This morning I got up early and made the kids candy lea's, they look thrilled in the pic I know, but they had just woken up and they are not really morning people. And for the rest of today, we went gemstone hunting and this is what we found. It's a periwinkle Sapphire. I LOVE it. We went to many places. We even went to one that tried to sell us a $10,000 tanzinite. Yeah we have that kind for money just laying around, HA HA. Here's the story if you wonder why I would pick out such a necklace. When we had been married for about 2 1/2 years he bought me my first solitaire gemstone (an aquamarine, my birthstone) and since then he has bought me one every year so now I have seven. And when I am old and gray and we have been married for 60 some on years I will have 60 some on solitaire pendants in all colors and varieties, even a diamond and eventually that $10,000 tanzinite.
I LOVE my hubby and really, I am the luckiest gal in the world. He spoils me rotten and loves me all the more for it. What would I do without my Love?

Cookies, Cookies, Best Things to Eat!

Every V-day I get in the mood for sugar cookies. Happens every year, but I did something about it this year. I usually am to lazy and don't want to clean up the mess. But I just didn't care yesterday, I wanted cookies and I was going to do something about it. So before I picked up the kids I made the batter, stuck it in the fridge, went and got the kids, came home used my cookie press (yea I got it to actually work) and let the kids decorate their little hearts out. The frosting didn't turn out so great, but the cookies were darn good. And so are the pics.
Cheese, Does she look tired to anyone else?
Cora decided to just wear the frosting instead. I know adorable, but a huge mess to clean up.

The Library

I haven't been to a library for about 5 years now. I know, SLACKER!!!!! But the last time I went to Tooele Library I was bored to tears so I haven't been back. I finally went to a library yesterday and I could have stayed all day. Dave needed some books from the city library in SLC. So I left at 8 a.m. and was only there for about 1 1/2 hours but I loved it. I finally felt a little normal. I loved going to the library in college, it made me feel like I was actually accomplishing something. Needless to say that I will probably be going back very often. And of course while I was there I took pics of my kids.

I was messing with the functions on my new camera and loved this picture. Blue bottles are my fave though so it makes sense.

Well Okay, You're the Experts

I did this with expectations. Cait and Cora look so much like their Dad it's ridiculous and Dawson looks like me. That's what we have always thought, but apparently we were wrong.

I Just Had too

I had to copy Bugs. The first pic that I uploaded I looked like Dave's celeb fave Penelope Cruz, Beyonce, and Oprah. But that pic of me wasn't blog worthy so I changed and I ended up like these fine women. I laughed when I saw Penelope, now I know why Dave likes her so much :)

Just for Show

I took this picture on Sunday because the girls were wearing the same dress. My mom made them when my little brother got married. The one Cora is wearing was Caits and the one Cait is wearing was my neices. I just thought they looked so cute, plus I promised my mom that I would post it. Enjoy.

NEW CAMERA

I got my new camera yesterday. Thank you all for your input. I went with the Canon SD 790 Elph. So far I like it alot. And I played with it today. Here are a few pics that I have taken just for fun.

What do you do?

What do you do when you are sitting in the school parking lot and your 3 year old starts screaming that he needs to pee and needs to pee bad, and the kids still aren't coming out for 5 more minutes? Answer: You grab and empty bottle. End of story.
Sorry to anyone that had to hear Cora scream DADDY! in the middle of Ada's baby blessing yesterday. Dave wasn't in his seat and she was trying to find him. I thought it was funny. She did it again when she noticed he was back and tried to get his attention. Even the bishop smiled when she did it that time.
And I need info. I am in the market for a new camera. I am down to two choices: a Sony Cybershot or a Canon Powershot Elph. Which do you prefer?
