For Fun!

SO, I just have to start off with saying that I have the greatest husband EVER! He is sooooo good to me and I love him more and more everyday!

This is what he did this weekend............................


Here is our bathroom before:
And here it is now!!!







It really looks amazing and he did an awesome job! Now just need to decorate it! p.s. there is a stupid spot on our camera that you see in the pictures.

Easter FUN!!
My nephews enjoyed putting all the eggs in every color possible and having to stir them every possible moment.



We also went to the childrens science museum. It was really cool! We made HUGE bubbles and watched how to freeze marshmallows! It was fun!


And THIS week we get to go to Atlanta and see our family there!! Adam's little brother is getting married so we look forward to seeing everyone and spending some much needed time there! Can't wait...............I will post some pics when I get back.

OH Hobby lobby....

Well, I had a great weekend in Salt Lake this weekend. My dad was going up to see my grandma so I decided to tag-along! It was really fun b/c I got to do A-LOT of SHOPPING! It was sooooo nice. My dad was awesome and actually took me to all of my craft stores I NEEDED to go to! Thanks DAD!!! We also got to spend some time with my cousin for the first time. She was adopted from Guatemala and she was so cute and fun. I also got to spend some much needed time with one of my very best friends Crystal! We always have fun together. I got to meet her little girl and kiss on her cheeks...oh I love baby cheeks!! It was great.


This is a dance we went to for our ward....lets just say not too many people showerd up. But hey... WE DID!! We always enjoy a reason to get dressed up and go to a dance. I don't look so good there but Adam was smokin' HOT in his 70's get up....hahaha! Love it!







OK, so I know there are a lot of people that have been asking about us and wondering what is going on. SO I have decided to share a little with you. I have never wrote about it before I think b/c it just brings to my attention how real my feelings are when writing it...if that makes any sense. But, we still long for the opportunity to start our family. I do have the good news that I finally found a doctor that I like and is pro-active about it. We are moving along now and just hope for the best. I know that Heavenly Father knows whats best for me and He always has a plan that is better than my own. I have learned a lot already and I am sure there is much more to learn. But, I do look forward to that post when I can announce the greatest gift that can ever be given! SO...watch out!

Sledding

HAHA! OK....so I realized I just tricked everyone into thinking that those stairs are mine. Sorry, they are not. That is in my parents house...LOL! UMMMM....I only wished I could afford a house with a huge staircase! We have a single story...VERY modest home. So sorry to disappoint! BUT, we always have room for friends to come visit!!


Here we are after church in our messy house. I mean REALLY messy. But this is a small preview of the kitchen and dining room! I am waiting for Adam to get the video ready.....so that could be a while! He is a busy man!




We went sledding in the mountains a few weeks ago. It was so much FUN! I love visiting the snow and then leaving the snow....ahhh gotta love it!!

By the way, NEVER use storage boxes as sleds. They do not work! I pushed my nephew down and by the time we got to the bottom he was telling me he needs a new one b/c it wasn't fast enough!

BAHAHA! Adam is crazy!!



This was a craft idea I got from my friends in my ward in Dallas that me and my mom did. It turned out cute. It is an advent calender for December so you can have something special to do with the fam every day until Christmas! I am excited to use it next year.

Happy New Year!

So we have some good news....we are officially homeowners!! Ahhh!



We enjoyed the holidays we had here, but also missed our family in GA. And we look forward to what the new year will bring. We are grateful for all we have and for the blessings of the gospel. We are also grateful for the economic crisis because it has brought the Las Vegas real estate to its lowest...haha! No, it has been a difficult time but also a blessed time.



This is the beautiful view we get from our house. I LOVE the sunsets here! They are breathtaking. I also love the snow in the mountains-not on the roads!!


I will get some more pics and hopefully a video up of the house. SO, if anyone has an itchin to
come to Vegas...let us know!

I created this slide for the stairs....it was awesome! The boys loved it! Haha...

Thats pretty much what I do on my spare time.

YAY for the Holidays!

I can't believe it is half-way through December already! The time has gone by so fast. We have been able to do some fun activiites so far.....






We ran in the Las Vegas Santa RUN!! It was really fun. I am very out of shape but it was a good time. There are TONS of Santas running around!!


Can you find me?






It even snowed a little....HA. Not really! We just found out we could make it snow on our camera!




We went to the Venetian to look at what Adam has been working REALLY HARD on to create:


It was breathe taking in there! Good Job HUNNY!! I am proud of YOU!

These were huge Polar Bears made out of Poinsettas. And the sea of red is cranberries in water.



AMAZING!







My nephew is very SERIOUS when it come to judging Christmas decorations......


















Then we got to go see BLUE MAN GROUP (in the 3rd row of course) courtesy of the VENETIAN!! It was awesome!!

Octooober!


I do love the fall! Great weather=it didn't snow on Halloween! Sorry for those up north...suckers! hahaha. If you need a vacation you can come visit me! Although in July I will want to be up there...oh well. We are still enjoying it here in Vegas.


WHO wouldn't with these 2 around?!!





We went to the pumpkin patch and had fun sliding and petting the animals and smashing the pumpkins...ok we didn't smash them, but that would be fun too. We also went trick-or-treating with my nephews. They were so CUTE! I love them...they light up my life!!




They went as Nacho Libre and his tag team(don't know his name). It was so funny! Adam and I threw ours together at the last second. I just wanted to wear my mask!

Just Bored...

OK...I am so freaking bored I could shoot myself, not really, but maybe! I am WAITING for one of my jobs to go through so I am going stir crazy. I am trying to fill my days with as much as I can and be productive. It is harder to be productive when you have NOTHING to do rather then when there is a lot to do, for some reason.


I have been able to spend time with my nephews...which I LOVE! They are so cute and fun...unless they are being brats...then not so much fun, but I still laugh at them.


















Our camera pooped out on us a few months ago so I haven't been able to take pictures. I was wanting to wait until Black Friday when the good deals come out. But, Adam had some money saved up from some side jobs he did and it was BURNING a hole in his pocket! He had a few things in mind he wanted, like an I-touch or an upgraded stereo for his truck. BOTH were denied! So then he mentioned a camera, knowing I would go for that...and I DID!! So now I am just waiting for it to arrive....Then I can post some pics and let you know how it goes!
