Heather's Wedding

My cousin Heather was married on the Wed Feb 29th. It felt like 2 days mushed into one for me. Was a very busy to to say the least. But she looked beautiful, and it turned out perfect.She came to my house at 1 to get her hair done and then I id the girls hair at the reception center. But between 3 and 3:30pm I made soup and got bags ready to go. Went and picked up car pool took them home, came home finished soup and wait for Grandpa Jim to come. Left at 4:00pm to get their in time to do wedding's parties hair. Broden still had a fever so I left him home with Grandma and Grandpa Franc, he loved it! Did hair and visited, then got myself ready because I was not ready for the wedding. Then went and enjoyed my self at the wedding. My mom brought Tegan, because he did not want to go while mom did hair, its so boring to my boys to go somewhere i do hair. What should I expect there boys. Right! Anyways the storm was crazy that night and it was so hard to see coming over Camp Williams I asked Tegan to say a prayer that we would make it home safe. At first he was scared and then said "Will Heavenly Father help us?" I told him we must ask and have faith that he will help mommy to see the road and be able to control the car to make it home safe. He then said the cutest most simple prayer that calmed my nerves and aloud me to drive home safe. Thanks to my Heavenly Father and faithful boy my testimony was strengthened that day.

Welcome Back!

So I am Welcoming my self back to the blogging world. I am no going to catch up , but start from where things are now.

Saturday I went to Cheri's baby shower, I can not believe that she is so close to having baby Blakley! I am so excited for them. Tegan learned how to blow a bubble and I was reminded how much work I had to do around the house!

Sunday went to church and was sustained by our ward for ward conference in The RS Presidency and Tegan could not understand why I was standing he kept saying " Sit down mom, sit down, everyone's going to look at you!" I think he was embarrassed or thought I had lost my mind. He later pulled the Fire Alarm. He said " Mom it said lift here!" Did I mention I am so glad he is learning to read! We wnt to my mom's for dinner and Ty, Tegan, Broden, and Granpa played Battleship. It was fun to watch them.

Today started out as the regular day except I did not have 50 loads of laundry and a pile of dishes to do today so that made me smile! Did carpool and Broden was asleep in the car, it was only 9am and that seemed strange since he has only been awake for approx. an hour in a half. He woke up and came to me to tell me he did not feel good. He was burning up 103 to be exact. Gave him medicine and he went back to bed until 12:35pm. During this time I thought to myself what will I do when kids are in school and I am here. I may drive myself crazy! We will have to see when that day comes. My brought some popsicle's, soup and milk over for Broden and stayed for awhile. I did my brother and dads hair today and My mom stayed and visited and ordered cookie dough from Tegan. He is just starting to understand this whole fundraiser thing. Still wondering if he gets the money, where the money goes and why he does not get to keep all the cookie dough. His mind is for sure growing and learning right now! Emmett my nephew went in for exploratory surgery today. Things went good and they are going to look into the why's of what is happening. Nothing with his heart at this point so it was a good day for him.

Catch UP!

This is what my life is about! It never is about staying on top of things, it is always playing catch up. From the bills, laundry, the blog, homework, date night, car cleaning, the salon, all of it. If one thing would stay caught up on I would be in heaven. So clear from March this is what has happened with are family!

MARCH
Ty and I had our 6year wedding anniversary which was great! It was my year to plan so we went to Salt Lake and stayed as the Little America for the weekend. First we stopped at Color Me Mine and made a Mug that says DAD and a Plaque that says Messes Make Memories, because that is what I always try to tell my self as the blankets and stuffed animals are being pulled from every knock and cranny of the house. After Color Me mine we went to Smart Cookie and grab some Sugar cookies for the night, went and checked in, went to Pizza Factory and then to Kingsbury Hall For Romeo and Juliet the ballet hip-hop(He was a good sport for going with me that is not his favorite) When we were there we saw Cher and Matt they were there for their anniversary, we sat by them for the show it was so much fun.

Broden has been taking speech help from Kids on the Move and it has helped tremendously. I hope that it will continue to help.

Rides Home From Getting Daddy

SO the last two days have been kinda fun! On the way home from picking up Ty we were all repeating lines from Mega Mind (Love this show) Ty ask Tegan do you know what LOL means, because my favorite line was "LOL Smiley face!" He said he did not. So Ty proceeds to tell him that it means Love You Lots. I busted a gut! I said do you know what LOL means and he then thought for a min. and said why would they use a O instead of and then it clicked. ("Light bulb!") anther one of my Favorite movies (Despicable Me!) I said it means Laugh Out Loud and LUL means Love you Lots. It was Funny! Then the next day we had to take are car in to get it fixed there was a recall on it so thank heavens i did not have to pay for it. But we were able to get a loaner car to drive a really nice Kia Berrado I loved it! It made me miss my Kia Sorento so much. But like Ty said do you want to end up in the same place we just got out of. No I don't but it sure would be nice! I will just work really hard to get the car I want one day! But for now I have a car and it gets me and my family where I need to be. The lord always works miracles to make you smile again.

Parenting Trying Another Way

Maybe I will find a way!So I read this book on parenting called Love and Logic. I really loved it! I had heard from a patient when I work and Dr. Pitts office that it was a great book. I thought well maybe one day I will need that, well that day has come. Sooner then I thought actually. So yes I have been using this way of parenting for about a week. I think it is working because it is getting harder before it gets easier so I hope I am doing something right with it. I seem to not get so upset and seem to not be yelling as much. (shocked I know we don't yell here at our house do you at yours?)

A Day of Frustration and Love

Today was full of the ups and downs of parenting! Of Tegan showing me he is a big boy and getting up and ready and eating all of his breakfast without me having to remind him at all. Then coming home and rushing around the house clean microwave, self clean oven on, washer loaded and going, Broden dressed(even when he did not want to and I had to chase him to get him!) Grandma Great coming to get her hair done was great she went red it was so cute on her! I hope she likes it. Me getting Tegan off the bus, He tried to tell me that his friends mom was not home so that he needed to come to our house! Silly kid I know his mom they were home! Came home finished grandma's hair and she made them a corn dog, because they were fixing it by them seleves cooking it in the Microwave at 21min long ( I think they were done)
Grandma went home and Teg had been playing the xbox( I hate that thing right now) He did not listen and was yelling at me, ty called said will ya come get me yep, changed a stink bum and left, tegan still mad and lecturing me the whole way! (Frustration) Dad gets in car, hears teg doesn't say much then stop please, Me (frustrated say something dad), get home I need to get dinner done before hair comes so I can eat, Potstickers and rice yum! Ty helps, teg yells about chores and homework some more, I yell (frustration), cut hair, help with homework, he chooses to yell at me I walked away. He came and we did homework and he did great(LOVE) Tub, and boys laughing and playing(LOVE), Mom came and looked at my tree (I will post later) Boys played and laugh with fam! They love breena and bryan! Scriptures and prayers, water spills after being told to sit still listen and stop! Dad's upset, puts his foot down me (finally), then teg crys we feel bad and explain to help him understand! (LOVE)!
