Jenson's first birthday!!!

Jenson turned 1 on June 1st and boy did we party!!! We had it at my grandpas farm and it was seriously SO much fun! Here are the highlights...


My aunt was nice enough to saddle up the horse so that the kids could ride it. Jenson did not really like it to much...



Pinata time!!! We ended up hitting the pinata in the barn...it was such a fun setting!





This is the cake that Crystal and I made...it rocked! The barn ended up falling off on the way to the farm which was so sad because that took Crystal forever to make...she made it out of little debbie cakes...can we say talent...

Wondering why everyone is singing...

Jens and I blowing out the candle!

Jenson was not a fan of the cake! He was so concerned about having it all over his hands. He ended up throwing the cake off the high chair and shaking his hands, wiping them on his shirt but he couldnt get it off so then he just cried...it was really funny!



Mike and Karly being silly.

Jack just chillin waiting for Jens to start opening his presents...your next little guy!

Trying to get Jens to open his presents...he just wanted to get down and play!

Cute shoes!

He seriously got so much stuff we dont have room for it in our condo!

Thanks everyone for coming!!!

Oh and it was our 3rd anniversary too! We will be celebrating it this weekend!

I WILL Have this Bike!!!

SO...here is the dealio! As you all know Brian now works for a bike store. So...well...now I have to have a bike and I really want this awesome beach cruiser!! Well everyone I tell about this amazing bike is like...WHY would you choose to get a beach cruiser and not a mountain bike...we live in Utah! Well here is the deal people...I will NEVER go mountain biking...I am too afraid!!! I am only going to cruise around town with the hubs so why not invest in a stylish cruiser, right?! Not to mention that it is totally cute, it also will be SO much more comfortable to ride then a mountain bike! SO...



...DONT JUDGE ME!!!

I will let you all know when it has arrived...I will even post some pics of me and make you all want to have one as well!

News...From Us!

SO I know I have been the worst at updating my blog lately...so sorry! The problem is that I forget to take my camera places so I have no pictures...I really need to be better about that!

So things have been really great around here! Brian is LOVING his new job working for my Brother in law at Masherz...they just moved to redwood road and about 500 south in Woods Cross...so if you are in the area go check it out...its a really great place!

Brian finished up with school for the semester the beginning of April so he has had more free time then he has had in a few years...not a owning a business has been amazing!

We are headed to Colorado Springs in 2 weeks for some training for Brians new job...we will be there for 2 weeks! I am kind of sad to be leaving home and sleeping in a Hotel for that long but very grateful that my brother in law is letting me go with him! I dont know what I would do without Brian for that long!

Oh some good news...Me, my sister Crystal, and my mom are going to San Francisco the second weekend in June to see WICKED and just have a girls weekend! I am so excited I can barely stand it! Crystal tried to get us tickets for Wicked for Christmas and even stood in line at 4 in the morning and still didnt get them so we are SO excited to be able to go...I hear it is amazing!

Jenson is doing great! He will be 1 a month from today! I cant believe how fast time flys by! He is such a sweetheart and I cant imagine our family without him! Well that is all with us I will try to get some pictures on here soon!

First Easter...

This was Jensons very first Easter and it was so fun! Come to find out any holiday is way better with a baby! First we went to my sisters for breakfast which was so fun! My mom was in town which is always fun and Crystal and her gave Jenson an awsome Easter basket full of fun books and toys...thanks you guys you are the best! Then we went to church which was extra great today even with a crazy 10 month old that wouldnt sit still! Then later we went to dinner at Brians Grandmas house with most of his family there. All is all we had a great day! Hope you all did too!


Shaking the easter eggs...


Sorry this is blurry but this is the easter bag and basket full of some pretty fun things for Jenson from my sister and my mom...


Grandma giving Jenson some gold fish that he nearly died eating...haha jk mom!


Jackorack...love him!


Trying to find a way to get past that gate and get up those stairs...


This is the best picture that I could get of his easter outfit...



Mommy and Jens playing with the camera waiting for daddy to get ready. So funny story...I was doing Jenson hair right before we needed to leave for church and Brian was spraying water on his shirt to get the wrinkles out...here is the funny part...it wasnt really water that he was spraying it was clorox bleach that I had put in a spray bottle to clean with. I was laughing so hard and Brian was so mad...like really I hardly ever see him that mad! So needless to say he had to find another shirt to wear and made us about fifteen minutes later to church. Good times!



Daddy and Jens getting ready to go to church.


Eating some Easter dinner!


Playing with the bunny at grams house!


Oh here is a little update on Jenson too. He is starting to walk...he can now walk back and forth between people. He says Uh-oh, thank you, mom...yes mom not mama mommy, he says dad...still not daddy or dada, and he can clap his hands. I seriously cannot believe how smart babies are and how much they pick up on. It is so much fun!

This kid is funny...

Jenson has such a great personality! He cant resist a camera...he is such a ham. Whenever I say cheese and the red light comes on the camera he is totally cheesing it! Even if he is mad and crying he will stop just to smile for the camera...it is hilarious!!! So here is some pictures of this stinkin cute kid who I absolutly cant get enough of!!! I have a video of him cheesing it also but for some reason I cant get it to download so as soon as I do I will post it.

This one he was crying right when he saw the camera he got a cheesy smile like this...

Bored and Lazy!

So on Tuesdays Brians mom takes Jenson for a few hours just because she wants to and it gives me a little break. Well I feel extremely lazy! I mean I am a stay at home mom and I am taking my child to his grandmas so that I can have break...what kind of mother am I?! I feel like I am not entitled to a break during the day. I guess that I should consider myself lucky right?! Well I guess my feelings are that Jenson is my life and I have him all day and mostly all night because Brian is in school and working full time so when he is home he is doing homework...except for the hour that I get to go the gym. So when I leave him I just feel like a part of me is missing. So right now I am sitting hear watching the time pass by til I get to go and pick him up! THEN...he takes a nap...so I will have 2 more hours to spare...I guess I will do some spring cleaning...Boring!!! Well anyways, just thought I would write down some thoughts because I am bored! I know I have been slow in the blogging world so I will posts some pictures soon...I just have to take some first!

Jenson has those curls!!!

That I have!! I am so excited! Since he has had hair I have been spiking it and I noticed as it has become longer it has curls! So today I decided to see how curly it is and put some styling glue in it and it is SO curly and I LOVE it! I have always wanted my kids to have curly hair like mine. So here are some pics I took of the curls...you may have a hard time seeing because his hair is so blonde...but you can sort of get the point.
