May coming to an end.

I truly love this month, but it has been so busy. It seemed like we had something going on everyday this month. I kind of get a little break for a while. We don't have to be any where until Saturday. It has been a fun month though.

My birthday was this month. Already 26 years old. I feel the same though. No new wrinkles. Jeremy took us out to Good Wood for dinner. It was really nice, other then kids can't behave when you take them out to dinner. Then Jeremy took me shopping for a new dress. That was my birthday present from him because he didn't know what to get me. We found a really cute dress. It was a really nice birthday. We also had our 6Th Wedding Anniversary on the 25Th. It was a Sunday so we could do a whole lot. I made dinner, East Chicken Casserole. I've never made it before, but Jeremy really liked it, so that was good. Then I made a chocolate cake with Chocolate frosting. Both were homemade. It was pretty good. We invited my parents over for cake and Ice Cream while we watch Empire of the Sun. It was fun.

Jeremy and I went out Saturday night without the kids. Jeremy got a new calling with the Church. In short terms he is the DJ for the Youth Stake Dances. So we went out to Jack-in-the-box for Milk Shakes and Curly Fries. Then we went to DJ the dance. It was fun. I got to remember how stupid I was at Stake Dances. Those were fun times though. Other then that we didn't really do anything for memorial day weekend. Yesterday Jeremy and I went to Grand View to Mow the lawn and clean the library for my mom. It was actually kind of nice to get away from the girls again, even if I was doing work.

It is coming to an end of the month and all we have to do is go to a wedding on Saturday. It is nice to get a little break. Then in June we will be getting ready to go to the Oregon Coast for our family reunion. That will be lots of fun. Then July Jeremy will have his two weeks for guard. We are also talking about going up to Spirit Lake in August. SO our summer sounds pretty busy.

I have also been able to enjoy reading this month. I have already read two books and am now on the third one. I have read Twilight, New Moon and now I am on Eclipse. They are very good books, I can barely put them down. When I finally get a break I love to be able to pick up a book and read. Well that is really about all that has been going on. There have been little things in between the big things, but I don't want to bore you with them. Plus I have already written a lot.

Race for the Cure

We went to the Race for the Cure this Saturday. It was a lot of fun. We got some free stuff and just had a good time. My friend Shannon, her little boy and I walked the 5K. I also took Shelby which she fell asleep throw most of it. It was pretty crowed. I guess there was like 14,000 people there this year. Which is good, because it is for a good cause. Melyni and Alma came and they ran. So did Jeremy. I'm just not in shape enough to run yet. Jeremy was in the first top 20. He did really good. We all had a lot of fun. We went out to eat at Ihop after wards. Well, that was the race for the cure. I think Jeremy and I are planning on doing the Celebration walk in Sept and doing the race for the cure again next year.

My girls are ready for spring.






Shelby's ready to go on a hike. She's got her hat and her water bottle. She's ready to go. Well except she's missing a shoe.











But look how happy she is.









Tyra being a little monkey.
What a silly litte girl!











I guess Shelby only likes to wear one shoe.

It's MAY!

Hooray it's May! I love this month. Not just because my birthday, Anniversary and Mother's Day is this month. Because it is just a beautiful month. The weather is warm, the flowers are starting to bloom. I love the smell of a nice spring morning. People are starting to mow there lawns. I don't my lawn, but I love the smell of fresh cut grass. It's just a wonderful month. I don't think anyone ever says, "I hate May".

Well I think we are going to have a busy month. This Saturday I am going to be walking in the race for the cure. I'm not tough enough yet to run in it. At least I am going to be walking the 5K. That kind of makes me tough. Jeremy has drill this weekend so we didn't get much done. He likes to come home and sleep after drill. We have birthdays to go to and weddings. It will be a nice month. Hopefully not stressful.

I really just wanted to write that I love this month. My girls are finally getting to wear capri's and short sleeve shirts. We get to go to the park every Friday morning. They love it. They love playing outside, but what kid doesn't. Other then that we haven't done a whole lot. Just having a good old time at home.

Weight Loss

We have been going to the gym for two weeks now. I really enjoy it. It does wear on you once and a while though. One day you will be all energized and ready to go and the next day you will be tired and not very enthused, but you go anyway. Then you feel better after you go. I've been weighing myself every Monday since we started, which has only three. I feel like I've lost some weight. It looks like my face has a little, and so have my fingers because my ring is a little loser. When I step on the scale it still says I'm 145 lbs. I would think I would at least drop down to 140 lbs by now. I might just need to get a new scale. This one is pretty old. We have been watching what we eat, or at least trying too. Hopefully all this working out will pay of soon. I am planning on walking in the Race for the Cure in May. I would like to walk the 5k, but we will see. I am hoping to get Shannon to go with me. I will have to ask her what she would like to walk. I pretty sure Melyni and Alma are running in the race, but if anyone else wants to do it too that would be awesome. Plus you get a lot of free stuff at the end. I wish I could talk my husband into doing it, but he thinks it's a woman thing. No matter what I am planning on walk in the race. Well this is kind of a pointless update, but oh well.

New Ring.

So my diamond fell out of my ring at the beginning of last month. My fingers have gotten chubby, so we had to cut my ring off. I did find my diamond though. So Jeremy said something about just getting me a new ring instead of getting my ring fixed (I still want to get it fixed someday). So I have been doing some internet shopping for rings. I don't want to get something to expensive, just something pretty. So I have chose two rings. I haven't showed Jeremy yet, but you guys can tell me what you think.

This one is from Zales. This one is really pretty, but It might be too big for my finger.

I like this one because it isn't huge. This one is from Ben Bridge. I really like this one.
