Last Week

Auuhh, I am kinda glad that today is Monday, the start of a new week cause my last week was too busy for me. And now I feel that I can breath cause its back to normal. Last week started with;
Monday: Me and Chuck going to Target for the Birthday stuff for my sons party on Saturday
Tuesday: Baby shower for a friend in our ward.
Wednesday: Mutual
Thursday: Leadership meeting for Young Womens
Friday: (my one day off) Cleaning house
Saturday: Working at the Flu Clinic for Over Time from 7-12pm, and going home and getting ready for the party that started at 4pm.
Sunday: Church, I had to teach the Young Women lesson.

Now all I can think of is I can finally go home and see my kids without leaving them with my husband who had missed me also, cause when I came home from work, he had me watch the kids since he was home with them during the day. I am so tired of having stuff to do. Plus now I am coming down with a head cold and need a ton of rest. :)

My latest projects

I made this to put up Christmas time. I'm sure you figured that out.
A thank you card I made. The inside said, Fall into the season of Thanksgiving.

These were something I made out of boardum.
A sign I made it has the date we were married and the saying on our favors,

On this day I married my friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream of, Love.


Welcome

Friends

Auhh lately I have been telling you all how much I love the Dollar Tree well now you know why... these signs with the words, the Peace and Welcome and Friends, I got all those at the Dollar Tree. The board with the saying I got at Micheals for $4, along with the Christmas tree's on the peace sign for $0.29, and the fall frames were a $1. I am greatful for my mother in law for lending me her paints to do all of this with. I think for Christmas I am going to ask for my own so I will stop using her's. But thanks anyways.

Camping with the White's

So cheary. You all look so happy.

Its not called camping unless we have a portable DVD player for the kids. Hee Hee.

The Kids discover that playing in the water fountain was much better than the dried up lake.
Me and Kelin.

Not so tough now are ya!

So a week ago on a Thursday night our friends call us and ask us if we want to go camping the next day. I have had the urge to go camping for awhile and when Chuck asked me I was like "Yes, Yes, Yes". But me and Chuck have never been camping together before. So we had nothing to go camping. He had a tent and a little air mattress cause he had taken Bailey once to a ward camp out and Peyton to a father son camp out. But never with all of us together. So we had to get everything in a hurry... another mattress for me, another sleeping bag, a stove, pots and pans, get food ready, and ect... we also decuded to go to Folson Lake since our friends lived in Sacramento we thought we would go by them. On the way up we realized that we forgot some things like a pump for our mattresses and ketchup and mustard for the kids and a lighter for the fire. Well when we finally got there and found a camp ground to camp in, there were a ton of people around in the grounds around us and it was a bit of a hike to the pottys. But no biggy, but we also forgot one more thing... fire wood. And since there were some dead tree's by us our friend Ian brought his handy dandy ax to solve our problem. But there is was a bad thing... er-go the police car in the picture's above. Yup we were not aware that its an $800 midameener (sp) to cut our own wood from the tree's there. (Don't worry, we didn't get one) So the boys drove to the nearest gas station (about 10 minutes away) and bought some fire wood. Once we were settled and the kids were in bed, it was SMORE TIME. I pigged out on those things like it was the last thing to eat on earth. I had 5!!! And I don't regret it either. They were so stinkin good!!! So as we were chatting around the fire, another police came up to us and told us it was quiet time, everyone looked at me like I was the blame. Well I am loud... sorry. Afterall of the stress and huffing and puffing, it turned out to be a great campng trip and we have learned not to go back to folsom lake again. For now on its off to the sierra's!!! We love you guys, Ian and Yanneth, thanks so much for inviting us. Hope to do it again soon!!!

Practice Cake

The Pirate Flag Cake
Me being so proud!
Chuck's Piece.


So... Chuck brought up a cute idea to do for a cake, it was to make a pirate flag... so simple I can't believe how smart my hubby is, he also suggested a map. But this was so easy. And as you can see I had to cut a piece off for Chuck cause I took the rest to work with me cause I didnt want to have the huge cake for just me and Chuck to eat, so I shared it with my co-workers. When I got to work though, I had put a lid on the glasswear and when I took it off, the skull face was stuck to the lid. So I was pretty glad that I took the picture before I left for work. Anyways, let me know whatcha think.

The Five Boys (Men)

Chuck,Brooks, and Adam

Chuck, Brooks, Adam, Carter, and Doug

Here are Chuck's best friends. They have always been there for one another and this was the first time that they had all been together in five years. There's Doug, Carter, Brooks, and Adam. Adam lives in Virginia and Carter lives in Utah. Doug is here in Modesto and Brooks just moved to Sacramento. These guys are the silliest bunch of lil kids when there around eachother. They do the wierest things. For some odd reason, there favorate things to do is hit eachother in the privates. Dont ask me why, I'm still trying to figure it out. But when all said and done at the end of there night, they do a toast with Apple Cider and go in the Garage and talk about who knows what? But when that happens, "No Girls Aloud". Whatever!!! I see how it is. But by the end of the day no matter what Chuck was so happy to see his friends. It was great to see all of them. We love you guys!

Here's an Idea of the cake I want to make.
I have been looking on the internet for good ideas for my sons birthday (Its going to be Pirate Themed) and have discovered this website that I love. http://familyfun.go.com/

They have the cutest ideas and videos that really help. I definately reccomend looking at this for anything. So cute. Also if anyone is ever doing a Pirate them, or even a Princess theme, go to the Dollar Tree if you have one. They have everything from Goodie bags to masks, to decorations. I cant wait til Peyton's party. Chuck wants to get a Jumphouse but the only thing we could find was Noah's Ark with a huge Elephant hanging out so we may use it and tape a pirate patch over the eye of the elephany and stuff. ( I know that doesn't sound right to do that to the ark, but they didnt have anything else. ) Anyways have a good week.

I love the beach!

Hello all!!! Here are some pics from our yearly trip to Sunset Beach. My families ward goes almost every year since I was in high school and when I heard that they were going this year I told them I was tagging along for the ride. So we brought our family. I finally got to do my most favorate thing in the world, BOOGIE BOARDING! I havnt gone forever, we went in Hawaii but oddly there were no good waves. But this was so much fun!!! I actually saw a bunch of Jelly Fish outside the water but once I was in and found one right next to me floating in the water. I freaked out but couldn't stay out, I just went down the beach and got in a different spot. It was so much fun. Sadly Chuck isnt a water person and told me that he was fine being there for the kids entertainment. I dont care! I had a blast. I love the beach. Well Enjoy the pics.
