Family Pictures 2010

We went to visit some of my family this weekend up in Idaho. We had such a great time & while we were there my uncle was so sweet and said he would take our pictures (we have not had any family pictures taken of us yet since Rhett was born ;0) so he took us too this beautiful park & shot a ton of cute pictures. There were so many bugs & both of the kids were cranky but we got through it! ThAnK HeAvEnS!! I love the way they turned out! Hope you like them!

Ahh just looking back......

This was one of the BEST days of my life!

Just wanted to share :)

Groupon.com HURRY!!

OK so I make photo books with every 6 months (that's usually when i can find a good deal)...... GROUPON.COM has an amazing deal right now $100 in books for only $25. That is a steal! Thats pretty much like getting 2 or 3 free books!! Go to this link http://www.groupon.com/r/uu5985180 and purchase yours! I think it only goes for a couple days but it is so worth it. If you have never used picaboo before it is awesome it is one I usually use over and over again! Just thought I would share :) Happy photo booking ;)

Family

After everything that has happened to me & my family lately I am holding my family close! You never know when someone is going to go. I do not want any doubts in my life about not saying "I love you" or hugging someone before they leave. Hold the ones you love so close never let a moment pass you by with out letting them know you care! You just NEVER KNOW!! I love my family with all of my heart & I am so geatful to have them in my life!

On a different note here are a couple random pics I decided to put up from the past little while! :)

Im back!

It has been a crazy past couple months but I think things have finally settled down & I can now start blogging again! Here are a couple below to start & there will be many more to come :)

The kids!

My little girl will be 3 next month....3!!!! I can not beleive how fast time goes by! She is a ball of energy & is so funny! Some of the things that come out of her mouth are hilarious. She is a joy & such a AWESOME big sister.

Rhett of coarse is growing like a weed as well. He is sitting on his own, starting to eat cereal & baby food. He laughs at Ally all the time. He is so much fun, I am sad it is going by so fast I just need to enjoy every second. He will be one before we know it. Rhett went to his 4 month check up last month & he is only in the 5th percentile. He is a tiny little thing.

I am loving every little moment with my kids. I do have days where I feel like I am going crazy but its normal... I think ;) Joey, Ally & I are heading to disneyland next month. We are leaving Rhett with my Mom. I am sad to leave him but it will be so much more enjoyable & Ally will get to have the two of us all to herself for her birthday! We are so excited!

Will this ever end?

Biggest Jazz fan!!

I have had such a hard couple months.... Last Saturday I lost my sweet cousin Jarred Phillips. He was only 28 yrs old. Our family has been heartbroken over this and we are going to miss him terribly! I feel like I have had my heart ripped out of my chest! Its been an emotional roller coaster. He left behind 3 adorable children. Jarred was a loving person & unfortunately he had a drug addiction which is what took his life. He was always so sweet & caring, in fact when I lost my Grandparents last month he called me several times & said how sorry he was & just cried because he knew I was hurting. He was so kind and such a tender heart! Keep his kids in your prayers please. They are hurting over this!

I made this video for the viewing & funeral. It is about 8 mins long but I thought I would share for those who did not get to see it at the funeral or viewing (it wasn't working correctly!):

Also we are trying to raise some money for his kids & things they need if you can go to:

and you can even just donate $2.00 it would be so so helpful! Thank you everyone for all your kind words & prayers.
