My cute mom making New Years hats out of newspaper for all the grandkids! I love her!!!







Deer eating on sume shrubs...we convinced the kids they were Santa's reindeer


Christmas morning. Ky in her new PJ's




Kylie's 11th Birthday party. Do you think she likes Zebra patterns?! I made that cake by myself...it only took me 4 hours but all the kids loved it!







We always go to Gardner Village in Oct to look at all the witches and then we have lunch at Archibalds.




Halloween, Ky was a 80's rocker, I wanted to do her hair bigger but she didn't believe me that people back then poofed it bigger!


Ok so I am HORRIBLE at this blog thing!!! But at the request of my sweet sis-in-law Jen I will be better :)
So it has been months since my first post, a lot has happened like Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years...Whew!
Kylie turned 11 last month and thinks she is big time now since next year she will be 12 and will be out of primary and into young womens. I keep telling her to be a kid and enjoy it because once your an adult you can't go back! I had such a fun childhood and I want her to have awesome memories like I do.
As for me, I am still in school and while I hate it I will keep a smile on my face because in a year and half I will have made my goal of obtaining a Bachelors Degree...YES!! I got my life/health license in Sept and was working for a company where I was selling Medicare Supplements to retirees. That job was temporary and ended in Dec so I am now on the job hunt again. Surprisingly, I am not as stressed out as I thought I would be. I have been able to "pretend" that I am a stay at home mom and do things that they are privledged to do like laundry, cleaning house, cooking, etc. My favorite thing that I have had more time to do is be home when Kylie gets home from school and spend more time with her. The next best thing is I have had more time to do Temple work. I have been more times to the temple and I am thinking that is why I am not as stressed out as I should be. I just know that I will be ok, when I am there I have a peaceful feeling everytime and I know that everything will work out for me.
I am posting some pics of the last couple months mainly for Jenny from the block! I love ya and miss you all!!
