So after trying to throw 2 suprise family parties and them not really working, I decided to throw one with some of our friends. It was short notice so only a few came. But before I get into the party and how it went. I have to start from the beganing, I was wondering how I could get Brian out of the house while I needed to set up and get everything ready so I called my good friend Cortney and we came up with a plan that we had a jewelry party to go to and her husband and Brian would hang-out. We told them that we would been done with the jewelry party at 730 and to have them meet at our house at 730. We took the 3 boys with us and went back to our house to set up. I tried to come up with AIRPLANE themes. So there were sandwhiches, peanuts and prezels. Bottled water labeled 'PILOT BRIAN' and cupcakes with airplanes on them with 'FIRST CLASS' in them. Then for dessert I had ice cream. All the topping had ariplane terms. Like 'bomber bears' (gummy bears), 'captian chips' (chocolate chips), 'cessna crumbles' (gram crackers), 'FFA fudge' (chocolate sause), 'cockpit carmel' (carmel sause. And for the take home gift, the 'BAGGAGE CLAIM', of course they were airplanes. It tooks us two with our 3 boys about 2 hrs to set up. Next time it will be way easier to have the men take the kids. Right around 7 we finished and a few friends had shown up.We were all chilling in the living room for more friends and we heard the door open...it was BRIAN!!! Oh my I was shocked! What are you doing? I asked. You cant be here now! Brian explained that there was flash floodling where he works (he works for the city) and he got called in for emergency to help with the flood and he had to be there now! My face was in more shock! Another party down the drain! I worked my butt off for this party to be the best and he couldnt even be there! I felt so sad that he had to go and couldnt even celebrate! He grabbed a sandwhich and left! By then most of the friends were there. So I decided to still have the party! I felt bad they all came and then Brian had to go but the party was good. We all chatted and hungout for a couple of hrs. I think Duncan was the subsitute for Brian. He is a character! He was making everyone laugh. Duncan is Chris and Cortneys oldest son (4yr). I have to share one story that made us all laugh. Hope you dont care Cort? So Duncan has been on a kick about marriage. He has said that he has found his future wife at a pizza place. So that night he went to one of our friends Ben and said, So you married? and Ben said Yes. Well where is she and Ben said right here. and Duncan turned to her and said with a discusted face--You married HIM!!??? HAHA we were all busting up laughing. Jena the wife said Yeah put him in his place! and Ben said something like Yeah she couldnt of done better huh!? Duncan you are so funny we love you!!!! Brian felt bad really bad that he wasnt able to be there. All week long he was telling me that he was sorry. Poor thing! Its ok love! I love you! Even though my planning of parties STINK!!! Yu will always be a PILOT!!! and MY true love and only!

Brian's a PILOT!

So Brian passed his test!!! He is now an offical pilot!! Way to go love! It has taken a very long time for him to get here! 1st having to build the credit to get a loan for his school! (not a lot of banks will help and be easy for flight school) 2nd having the loan with a full-time job, a part-time job, a full-time church calling, full-time husband and dad, and an instructor not really teaching him the things he needs to know. Finally finding the right instructor giving him the training he needs he recieved his licence! He is so happy! He is pursuing his dream! I am so happy for him too! A couple of more yrs and a few more hrs of flight time he will be on his way of doing this for a career. Love you babe! Keep it up, your doing great Pilot Brian ;)!

Brother's Wedding

My little brother got married a couple of weeks ago! I cant believe time has flown by and now it was his turn to get married! I remember when we were little. He would play Barbies with me if I would dress the girls and play dinosuars with him! Wow he is married and starting his own family now! His wife's name is Jessica! Welcome Jessica to the family! Sorry I didnt get any pic of the cute new couple. (forgot my camara) :(


Here is Brian and Jayden after a LONG day. Their sealing was around 2 and then of course picture outside the temple. We were all hot and hungry! We got to the little lunch-in Jessica's family through around 4 and we couldnt wait and eat! Jessica's colors were green and orange. Our family was orange. I didnt get any good pic. of us girls wearing the same dresses with all different accessories. This is the only one we got of Brian and Jayden. I bought the ties for the men and made this bowtie for Jayden! I love it! It turned out so cute!

Fathers Day

I know, I know Im a little late with the whole fathers day! Im sorry! We did celebrate it! Its just I havent had time to blog it (Same with our anniversary) because I have been SWAMPED with being a full time mamma and babysitting my mom cause she had a major sergery! She was also the camp director for girls camp so I had been helping her with EVERYTHING on that! That should be it's own blog! anyways
But here is my shout out for FATHERS DAY!

To my sweet, amazing husband who had is first Fathers Day! He is the best daddy out there our little guy could ask for (including me)! Jayden looks up to him so much and we can see he truely loves him! He of course said "DA DA" first and has picked up so many of Brian's great quilities! He is working so hard for our family! 10 hour days in this hot heat! WOW! Who could do that!? Not me! I thank HF everyday for the man I married and for him being such a hard worker! He also does full time schooling to become his dream job--- a pilot!

Being married to the man of my dreams, my best friend and the love of my life! We started a great, fun-loving journey that we can make wonderful chapters in our book of LOVE! Now 1 1/2 kids later we are still DEEPLY in LOVE! Happy with every choice we have made for our family! I knew as a young women the type of man I wanted to married and I got MUCH MORE THEN THAT!

1st Baseball Game

1st Babysitter

This was Jayden's 1st babysitter! She was GREAT! Words can not express how much she means to us for helping us out while I had to work the last part of this school yr. It was so hard 1. Knowing you have to leave your 1st child with somebody and 2. Trusting someboby to watch your 1st baby and feeling, will they will protect him and give him the love and care while you cant! And she did just that! I will always know she gave Jayden the best care for him while his mamma was at work! I was kinda jealous when I would drop him off and take him out to give him kisses and loves before I left and he would look at her and smile the whole time! So I had to turn him around for him to look at me while I did the loves and kisses! But really it was a great sign he KNEW HER and was HAPPY to see her! Thanks Carol!!! You truely are the BEST!
