Happy Dating Anniversary!

John and I met and went on our first date twelve years ago today!!! It was a blind date lined up by my soon to be brother-in-law. John treated me to a fancy dinner at the "Golden Corral." On the way to the restaurant John was so nervous he wouldn't stop talking. He still won't stop talking to this day! We then went to the park and flew glow in the dark kites and then went back to my brother-in-laws house and made homemade rootbeer. We actually realized we liked each other when we went out and sat on the trampoline together and talked like we had know each other for years. Our date ended by watching Joe vs the Volcano. When John dropped me off at my front door he asked if he could see me again. My reply was " I'm gona see you tomorrow." We had already planned on going hiking up Farmington canyon. I knew after that date that I wanted to marry him. He was so nice and interested in everything about me. He even liked me despite my ugly braces I was still sporting. I hope he reads this and gets the hint that I would like to go on a date tonight to celebrate!

I am only glad I did not know John when he looked like this. I think I would have run the other way!!! Notice the purple Fresh Jive Pants. Classy John!

This is John looking G.Q. right after his mission. I think he still has that suit!

Ava 3 months!

I am actually posting this on time!!! Ava is three months old today! We took her to Kiddie kandids to get her pictures last Saturday and she wasn't cooperating but they turned out cute anyway. I am having so much fun with her. She is so cute especially when she smiles. I like em' big I like em' chunky!(madagascar 2 F.Y.I) I think of that everytime I see her rolly polly thighs!

Head cir. 15 in.

Ava's blessing day

Brooklyn turned seven on January 23rd. She had a fun late night with her friends where they had breakfast food, played games and screamed a lot. We had to drive everyone home in horrible fog and they were making up stories about warewolves. They even started to scare me!!! Her family party was a little more low key with lots of food and playing with the cousins. Brooklyn is one of the funniest people I know. She has now come up with an Ozzie Osborne impersonation. She has been so nice this year. A huge change from last year. I am excited to be around her because she makes me laugh and she has a passion for fashion. Here's some pics from her parties. Happy Birthday Brookie Cookie!!!

Ava's one month

I know I am so late posting this. Ava made it to her one month mile stone. She has gained 3 pounds since birth which is amazing considering she spits up everything she eats. She has a major acid reflux problem and we are on our second medication which is obvioulsy not working. I still think she is adorable and the reason I get up in the morning.(litterally!!!)
