Memory Lane

Okay, I am seeing these on everyones blogs so I am joining in!
Here are the rules (as if you don't know them by now):

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.

Some of the stuff I have read on other blogs has been pretty hilarious, so I can't wait to hear what you have to say about me.

Petting Zoo at Thanksgiving Point

One of my favorite roommates and people, Maren, called me up and invited us to go with them to the petting zoo. I was so excited to see her and her husband, Jake, and finally meet their adorable daughter, Tessa. I have not seen them since their wedding reception and now they live in Texas, so we keep in touch through our blogs. There were lots of goats and sheep and horses to check out. Hailey was all gung-ho on riding the pony, and looking at the animals-she even let a cow eat right out of her hand. Riley was more interesting in what people were eating for lunch and how to get some. When it came time for the pony, he was freaking out. But it was a good day and I am so glad we went and got to hang out with the McBride family. Love you guys!! The only thing that would've made this day better would have been having another favorite person and roomie, Ashley, and her family there. I haven't seen her since Maren and Jake's reception too.

Our Camping Trip

Wednesday, July 23, 2008

Oops, I did it again...

Yes, you may call me moron, idiot, sucker...whatever you think fits-But we got another cat. Remember the carnival we went to in Springville? Well, I guess you can call him our little carnival prize! We named him Lenny-think Of Mice And Men if you will. Riley lugs him around like he is going to love him to death, therefore Lenny. He was only 4-5 weeks old when we got him, so he was still very small and young. We actually had to bottle feed him water and milk because he didn't understand the act of lapping it up. It was kind of fun to watch him grow out of awkward infanthood into a little child. I'll admit, as much as three cats is a handful,we still love having them. Titus and Daxter, however, may not feel the same!!













Maybe I'll finally get caught up...

Ok so here is the deal-basically our lives have been flipped upside down in the last month. Don't worry, it's all been for the better. Wes has been up in Wyoming working for the last month, and I have become single parent super mom. He quit the hospital so he didn't become entirely crazy! Now he works for the Utah Iron Workers Union, and loves every second of it. The only downside is for the first year, you go where they need you to go-no questions asked. So he may be going to Kansas next month. We are actually hoping that that is the case. It will be a steady 4-6 month job. But it will also mean an increased steady income. But that also means that he will be in Kansas :( So I have been keeping busy with lots of overdue projects and trying to keep the kids entertained for cheap (we watch a lot of movies). So now that things have slowed down for a minute, I will try to get this all caught up. Are ya happy now!!!!! J/K
