A long overdue update....

Okay so I know i haven't updated in a long time since June... a lot has happened over the course of a few months... where to begin...June...My nieces and nephews stayed with us at my parents of course for the summer and we had a great time doing many fun activities and adventures...We went to Hogle Zoo, Swimming a lot!!!! but that is always the best part in the summer time.


July we had the fireworks at Granite High School which will be sad because it won't be my High School anymore but there was a lot of fun memories there. We have had a lot of sleepovers and late night with the kids. They are crazy and silly, but we miss them already, Kellen and D.J. (nephews) got baptized in July du
e to the fact that Kellen has really wanted to join but had to wait, it happened when we took them to go see the new Oqurriuh Mountain Temple Open House When
Kellen says that he really like feeling good inside and how the Temple looks beautiful
and hopes that one day he can come here. It was awesome, Tim baptized Kellen and my brother Milton baptized D.J. I hope that they continue to learn and study the gospel and keep that reminder in their heart of who they have become.

We have done a lot of fishing and camping this year as well Tim has decided to take up a new hobby and wanted to learn how to fish at first he wasn't having any luck but he wasn't about to give up and he finally succeeded at it and Caught Two fishes this summer I caught one it was scary and awesome at the same time.

August we have been getting ready for the new school bythis time we have been winding down and taking it easy. We didn't do much this month b/c we were broke...but that is okay we had a lot of fun spending time together before we went back to school.

September came and school has started it has been very overwh
elming for me this semester and
still is, i just hope that i can pass my class to be able to finally graduate next fall. Yay I will finally be done....

Now we are in October and to update on the kids Ali just turned 3 in July forgot to mention that and had a great birthday party. She wanted a Strawberry birthday which we did, I had a cute outfit for her in all pink and made a sign for her that told her "Happy 3rd Birthday have "Berry" special day" She got new strawberry shoes and toys. She is really into Strawberry Shortcake and is now liking Barbie and Tinker Bell . She is officially potty trained yay!!! Yes
there are moments when she does have accidents but she is learning. I for one am just glad that i only have to buy one set of diapers and worry about Camden. Ali is learning and growing everyday she is loving that she can be more independent. She is very curious about everything, we are working on her letters,shapes, colors, and numbers...She is a very bright and great example to me and tim always reminding us that we need to read scriptures and have family prayer and sing songs before bedtime, although that is one of our challenges with her is that she never wants to go to bed and tries to find every way that she can to stay up, we have found that keeping her up all day with no naps she tends to fall asleep early which fine with us, cause by the end of the day we are all worn out by her. :)

Camden is 7 months old and is my little spunky boy who has developed a stubborn streak, he doesn't like to lay down on the floor so he taught him self to sit up. Right now he is trying to roll over and learn how to crawl and is not sure that he likes the idea. He has the cutest smile and loves it when his sister makes him laugh when she gets him going it is so funny to listen to them laugh and giggle. He has been sick for the last 3 weeks with a cold and c
ough/ teething but has been in good spirit.

Tim has been finishing this semester at SLCC and will hopefully be done in the spring, he is still working at FedEx's Kinkos.

I am still staying to be a mom and waiting to see if i still have my job i have had some good news but still waiting...it sure takes a long time for them to finally get to you but keep your fingers crossed. As i have mention i will be done with my Bacholer's Degree in Human Development Family Consumer Studies with an emphasis in Early Childhood next fall and i am very excited to be done with school, i thought about going on and doing my student teaching but i think i am going to stick with doing preschool. Which is okay with me, i have been in school for so long that i am ready to be done.

Well that is our update for now I will send more in a while after Halloween.
