Prepare yourselves

Okay this has been a long time coming. A lot has happened in the last few months and so I am using that as my excuse. :) Most recently, like as of last night, we sold my car. I bought my BEAutiful Honda Accord in 2003 and paid for the whole thing myself. So it is a little bitter sweet to see it go.

But we are needing a bigger vehicle, hint, hint;) so we bought my grandparents van. I don't have a picture of the van sorry.
We also have just moved to Utah. I am sure most of you know this but I couldn't leave that out. We are living with my In-laws for know and we have a house that we need to fix up and then we can move in. It will take awhile so we don't know how long we will be here. But we are happy to have such amazing family that will let us take over their basement for months.

Carson helping dad take apart the bed. So cute!

Christmas- This year for Christmas was so different because of moving. Christmas day we came home from being with my family and took down our sad little tree.

It was a great Christmas, we stayed at my brother Jake's house and had our own little Christmas in his basement.
The kids love to take the chairs and pretend that they were Santa's Reindeer, and they would say 'Ho,ho,ho Merry Christmas. It was so cute.

What was left of the milk, cookies and carrots.

My cute headband the my friend made and Cameron so wisely got me. Carson with his new jacket and his beloved movie Wall-E. He had been asking for Wall-E since like July so he was pretty excited when he got it from Santa.

I got more movies than pictures so sorry there isn't much from Christmas.
We graduated- this is the most exciting thing of all. After 6 years of school, 5 years of marriage, and two children I finally graduated. I officially got my BA in Early Childhood/Special Education. Cameron also graduated. He received his associates in Automotive. Now for this occasion I have lots of pictures.
My adorable husband and myself.

Our BEAutiful children!

My wonderful sister. (Sorry Brandi this is the only picture I had of us.)

My BEAutiful mom. My dad couldn't make it because he was in Baton Rouge working. (I hope I am spelling that right.)

Hooray! Cameron's parents also came to support us.

Our good friend Stephanie, and McKenna's favorite person.

And here is one just because he is cute. This is an outfit my cousin Bobi got for Carson. He loves it.

Here is a funny video of McKenna trying to jump rope. It is pretty cute.

Well I think that updates me for the last couple of months. So long!

Halloween

BOO!!!! Hehehe
We had a ward Halloween party that was super fun. The committee did games from Minute to Win It. There was one game that nobody won but me. That's right!! I am AWESOME and very humble. :)
Carson and McKenna were Woody and Jessie. It was funny because there was another Woody and Jessie and it was a couple. Then there was a little Buzz and a baby Woody. Super cute.



Can you tell what Cameron and I were for Halloween? If you were told don't give it away.
(Brandi:) Hint: it goes along with Toy Story!

McKenna's first hair cut!!!

I have been too chicken to get McKenna's hair cut for two years now. Okay not really two years because her hair hasn't been this long for two years. Her hair started growing really fast the last 6 months and everybody is always commenting on how long and pretty it is. So I finally got the courage to have a friend of mine cut her hair (just a skiff off really). Thanks Ashley! I forgot my camera and she was kind enough to let me use her camera and then email me the pictures. So here are a few pictures of the event.
I don't think she knows what is happening.


She held so still, it was amazing.

No she did not cut off that much it is just her smoothing it out. I am not ready for that big of a cut yet!
That is how much she cut off. I told you just a skiff.


I love this picture. She is like 'What is going on?"

Carson loves babies and they are always kind enough to let my kids hold her.

Can you guess what Carson is saying?

So Carson has this word that he says, or tries to say, and it is dang funny. I am going to do a little give away to the one who can figure out what he is saying. Brandi and Bobi you can't guess because you heard him say it the other day. Good luck!!!



This is what McKenna was doing when I just went into the kids room. Silly kids.

Two months later.....

Okay it has been awhile since I have posted. Here are some pictures of the last few months. There aren't a ton because I always for get my camera but it is better than nothing. These are in no particular order.


McKenna's first side pony tail. She is so cute here. Right now she is throwing a fit on the ground because I won't hold her while I update the blog.

They are adorable but they are hard to get on camera because they don't hold still long enough. This was the best one out of the 6 I took.


Our camper that we got for free. Cameron put a lot of work into it and we love it.
The inside of the camper with my family.

Just because he is cute. Look at those blue eyes.

View from the back and from the front. They are too cute.
Inside the camper while camping at Rigby Lake.

Carson is being a great big brother and helping McKenna eat her food.
This is a video of Carson going down the slide at Rigby Lake.
This video is so dang funny. It is of Carson sleeping in the car and his head bobbing all over the place. Cameron thinks I am rude but it was hilarious so I had to video it. I ended up getting in the back and holding his head up.

Student teaching

Pink eye+ upper respiratory infection+ throwing up= McKenna

On the bright side I got my student teaching placement last week (finally) and I will be at Falls Valley in Idaho falls in the 3rd grade. Way better that in Pocy:) I must admit I am terrified but it will be good...it will be good....it will be good. If I keep saying that will it be true?
