Yummy cake!

My Baby Turns One!

Trace Turned One today! I felt like it was Carson's birthday though because he was buggin me all day to open the presents Pleeeeaase! I just want to play with one mom. I had to keep telling him it's not your birthday it's Trace's. Then later Trace went to bed Carson played with his toys as much as he could. So it's been a fun day we didn't have a big party or anything cause he's only one and I am sure he will have many many party's when he gets older so we'll skip that while we can :) I have been so blessed to have older brothers that have had children before me so I get all the hand-me-downs, so there was nothing Trace really needed so I had to get him something so he got some new toys! We are truly blessed to have him in our family he has taught all of us much patients :} Happy Birthday Trace We love ya! Hope you liked the blowing out of the candle and eating the cake video it took forever to upload!

Bear With....

WARNING!!! Cheesy material below!

I have been looking all over the house for my journal and it's nowhere to be found. I just keep feeling like I need to write down some things that I have been thinking about latley. I'm not sure why but I have just been extremely HAPPY lately! I will need this post to refer to when I am feelling down. So here it goes. I watch Dr. Phil, Oprah, News, and Glenn Beck, and on these programs you see a lot of families fighting, couples divorcing, and bad cruel things happening in this world and country. It's not just tv either I hear to often of families fueding or mom and dad divorcing in our little town of Preston. I am so happy to know that I love my brothers, sisters, and parents and that they love me. I would do anything for them and I know they would do anything for me. Which wouldn't have happened if we did not have parents that brought us up right! I am greatly in debt to my mom and dad for all that they have sacrificed for me. I feel this debt grow deeper as my children grow older and I realize the HARD work involved with raising a family. I once heard that you pick your parents before you are born? I made the right choice. For had my parents been super "religious" I would not be with my husband today. We started "dating" in the 8th grade and have never been separated since. Austin is another contributing factor to my happenis. (ha ha inside joke) I was raised by my mother and so I always wanted the same for my children. Now it's a reality, I am living what I always wanted too! Like I said I'm just happy lately and I just needed to give credit where credit was due, and that is to my husband, parents, family, and extended family, I just love them all so much and am so lucky to have so many fantastic people around me! I really could go on forever, but I'l hold the extra cheese :)

Girls Night!

Went to Thriller with Sheila, Steph, Trista, Kaylyn and Elaine tonight we had a lot of fun eating at Texas Roadhouse then seeing Thriller. There are some amazing dancers in that show, Makes me wish I could dance like that. The zombies were quite fun they kept us laughing!
