I Will Not Green Eggs,

but Jacob will and he did.


Jacob would never eat eggs, no matter how we cooked them or what we topped them with. We felt as though we tried everything cheese, ketchup you name it. But then one day when i was helping at Jacob's school, I noticed The classic book we have all read, Green Eggs and Ham. That was the solution, Jacobs favorite color in the world is green and anyone who has been around him lately knows it. His favorute clothes, shoes,and every piece of art work is green. so he came home from school and we read the book together, before i could even finish the story Jacob was jumping up and down saying he would eat green eggs. so we made them as soon as we finished the book. And he loved them... Thank You DR. Seuss

Jacob's First day of School

Thursday was Jacobs 1st Day going to school and i have never seen a kid so excited about it. I thought to myself maybe he is so excited because he doesn't know what it is. Today is his 3rd day and he still loves getting up early and going, even when i go to pick him up at 2:30 after being there since 7 he still wants to stay. He just loves everything about school. especially nap time, his teacher always tells me he sleeps the hardest and they have to wake him up. I hope he stays this excited his whole life. My favorite part is picking him up and hearing the new adventures he has had with his teachers and friends.

This is our neighbor he was waiting for his bus and Jacob was so happy to see other kids where going to school too.









unfortunately Jonathon was out of town on Jacobs 1st day, but he was able to take him for day 2 so yea.

cake decorating, cake 1


So I recently signed up for a cake decorating class at michaels. I have always had this hidden passion to be able to make beautiful birthday cakes and maybe one day wedding cakes, Ive done little things here and there but i knew i needed some professional guidance and direction. The first night was just basics; how to make frosting, different thickness, how to level a cake and of course how to frost a cake like a pro. The second night was more hands on for us. we had a lot of practice time making stars which i still need to practice on. stars sound easy, but to get all my stars to match in size was a hard task. then we worked on figure piping, which then the teacher wanted us to draw a cupcake. so here it is. it doesnt look very good to me, but for a first timer at least people can recognize its a cupcake.

JuliAnne's 1st birthday

So the day is here my baby is 1. Still not walking or standing alone, but quite a talker she is. she loves to say mama, dad, dog, off, and adam. We still are not sure on her eye color some days they look blue and other days they look brown one day they might make up their mind. She has 5 teeth and seems to always be cutting a new one. This year has gone fast sometimes i want her to walk and other days i tell myself not to push she will do it when she is ready. Happy Birthday JuliAnne we Love you.

I thought i would post some pics for you Ash. Its been so much fun being in arizona again with family and close friends. Jonathon will be home in less then two weeks and off to arkansas we go. I will miss everyone so much. Love you guys and hope to keep in contact with everyone. I have notice something while i have been here about best friends. Best friends could go days, months, or even years without seeing eachother and when they hang out its like they never were apart. I love it. Im grateful to have such wonderful life long friends in my life.

JuliAnne's 1st time swimming

I bought this for JuliAnne but jacob I guess thought it was his.



I couldn't pass up this ballerina swimsuit it was just too cute

Its been such nice weather lately so my sister and I decided to take everyone swimming it was a lot of fun. The water was freezing to me but Julianne and jacob didn't seem to care they loved it . It was hard to get them out to leave after 2 hours. my little fish kids. I wish we had a pool but then again i have enough maintenance to do.

I Finally Did It!










I know I have been talking about it for a while now about cutting my hair and today when I went in. I decided to be daring and I told my Seth my hair person to chop it off. it feels so weird it is going to take time getting used to. I love it though I feel refreshed, I don't know why getting my hair cut gives me a boost of energy, but it does.

Not goodbye, But see you Later.











I know these next couple months will be tough, but we are so blessed to be a eternal family. Stay strong, your family loves you and always will. I pray for you to come back to us safe. Your in our prayers Honey. Thank you for loving us so much and being the great father and husband you are. We are so blessed to be yours. I"ll keep updating pictures constantly.




Happy Birthday Jacob
It took me the second time around to get this tigger cake to turn out right, but it turned out amazing. thankyou stephanie for frosting it for me.
Jacob had his 3 favorite things for his birthday. Turkey sandwiches with cheese, sugar and more sugar.


Stephanie and my mother in law sue hard at work. Thankyou for all your hard work, i would of been going crazy if it wasn't for you guys.


The kids had alot of fun pinning the tail on the tigger. Thank you dawn for drawing it up for me.



A nice family in the ward let us borrow their bounce house for the tigger party. It was the hit of the party. thank you melissa.
Its crazy how fast our children grow up, I still look at newborn pictures of jacob and it just seems like the other day he was learning to crawl. I can't believe he goes to school next year. I wanted to tell every one that help me thank you. A wise woman once told me it takes an entire ward to raise a child. I truly believe her, this ward we're in feels like a second family to us. Thank you again everyone, for all your help.
