Biggest Loser

It is really late right now and I should be in bed but I am sooo upset. It's Tuesday and every Tuesday Brandon and I watch the Biggest Loser. No matter what time Brandon comes home from work we watch it. The episode tonight had be cussing at the t.v. and seriously wanting me to throw the bowl of popcorn, I know what a healthy snack to eat while watching a weight lose show huh. There is a contestant on there that seriously needs to be there

He is one of the biggest guys that they have had on the show. We all know that being in the house starts to becomes a stupid game, which I seriously hate, but when it comes to sending home a guy that really needs to be there compared to a girl that only lost 1 pound and is pretty close to her weight goal and would probably do well going home send her butt home! The dumb red team has their little alliance their "family" as they like to call themselves and the minute that someone comes on their team they are booted off. Well we all knew that when Arthur got switched over he would have never had a chance. He lost 16 lbs in 2 weeks while he was home and Kaylee only lost 1 lb! I seriously got all teary eyed when they voted Arthur off because he needs to be there. I know that he didn't play the game very well and caused a stir in the house but he was trying to do what he thought was best for him. Well I hope that he kicks butt at home and he wins the at home prize. You can do it Arthur.

Sorry about my rant. I was a little upset. I am going to bed now. Goodnight.

Young Again

Just the other day I was thinking about how fun it was to be a kid. How there was really nothing to stress too much about. How life was so easy going. I had a friend that I would do just about everything with. We would always ride our bikes around town, walk, and just do fun stuff. I use to live across the street from a little park. There were times were we would go across the street and ponder as we would swing on the swings. I can't remember what we would ponder about at our age but I'm sure it wasn't too stressful. Oh to be young again. To not have to worry about the grown up stuff. As I am nearing my 30th birthday I have to admit it's kind of freaking me out about a bit! I am going to be THIRTY! I feel so old and I am literally feeling it! I have to actually watch what I eat, which I don't but should, I have to work out twice as hard as I use to, again don't, I should probably start taking vitamins to have energy for the day, again I don't do that. I am seeing little gray hairs sprouting out so that means better stay on top of dying my hair a little more often than I normally do. I noticed that my hand started to hurt now for 2 days so decided to go to the doctor. I wasn't too happy what he had to say to me. He said right now it's tendinitis BUT if it starts to occur frequent and goes in the other hand or other joints then arthritis. I cannot, repeat cannot believe it could be arthritis. I mean that's for old old people and I'm not that old. I told the doctor I don't remember every doing repetitive things with my hand whatsoever! How do you expect me to remember what I do. I am a stay at home mom to 3 kids and one is almost 3 and so half the time I pick up after him or do laundry. I don't keep track what I've done. I wish I  could just sometimes go back in time so I never ever had to worry about getting gray hairs, or hurt body parts. Ah to be young again. Well my hand is starting to hurt so I guess it's time to put a heating pad on the darn thing. I feel so old..*sigh*

Time Flies

I just realized that next week is the end of February! I cannot believe how fast this month has gone by. I have been crazy busy with stuff that I have not had a chance to just relax and enjoy this month. Then again not sure if I really want to enjoy this month since it's cold and has snowed again! It has been such lovely weather the last couple of days that I have really enjoyed it and I was able to get a few runs in-yay!

As I mentioned I have been crazy busy with a few things and it's about to get a lot crazier next week until May. The girls have their first competition at Thanksgiving Point next Saturday and have to admit I'm a little nervous not for Jazmin but for Mariah. This is her first competition and I hope that she doesn't get scared dancing on the stage with tonz of people starting at her. I'm sure that she will do fine and I am super excited to see her dances. She has a cute costume that's a lion, they are dancing to a song from the lion king, and a pretty little blue costume for her lyrical dance to In My Daughter's Eyes. Then March will come and we have 2 competitions and 1 one them is in St. George. I'm excited to go to St. George because we get to stay with Aunt Sheree and see her family, and we are taking a much needed break from the everyday home life and cold weather.

March is also Brock's birthday. That kid is going to be 3! I can't believe how fast he is growing up, literally he is growing fast because his pants are yet again too short for him. He just got a slew of new pants in December and they are already short on him. I have a feeling I will be shopping in the tall section for him when he gets older. Brock is doing extremely well on potty training, so well that he has finally earned his jazz bear that we bribed him with. Well unfortunately we haven't been able to find a jazz bear but build a bear has jazz clothes for you bear that you build and we figured that was the same. Don't think he will know as long as it says jazz I think he will be fine. Last week we were going to get his jazz bear but they were out of stock so Brock was really good about going back next week. I was afraid that he would throw a fit but he didn't thank goodness. So we went to the food court to grab something to eat. As we were finishing up Brandon spotted Jeremy Evans the rookie forward for the Jazz. As we got up to throw our food away Brandon started to talk to him and I told Brock that he was a Jazz player. Brock wanted nothing to do with him and hid behind me. I asked if I could get a picture with him and he was really nice and took a picture with me and Brock. I felt really bad for interrupting his lunch and I apologized to him for that. I'm sure he doesn't get too many people that come up to him because we were in the mall and no one (I think) even noticed him. A lot of people don't really notice the rookies but he is a good rookie and hopefully we can get him next year.

So from my busy month of running around and taking a picture with a basketball player February was good, minus the snow that we got. Here's the picture that Brandon took of me and Brock with Jeremy Evans. It was on my cell phone. I know blurry huh Brandon should be fired as a photographer. I think I will start to carry my small camera in my purse, but I need to buy the cord to charge it. Off to eBay to find one now.

Dear Phil

Dear Punxsutawney Phil,
 Please do not show your shadow tomorrow! For if you do I may have to go and hunt you down and whack you with a baseball bat! I am really tired of this cold weather that we are having and I would really like it if sunny spring would come here as fast as it can.


Thank You
Maritza

As you can see for my letter above that it is groundhogs day tomorrow and I am hoping that spring will get here fast. It was soo cold today and the wind has been blowing so that doesn't make it any better. I miss being able to go outside and run and I want to be able to have the kids go out and ride their bikes and take Brock to the park so he can wear himself out and take a nap. I really think that Brandon and I need to get away to somewhere nice and sunny. I am thinking Arizona, Texas, or even Vegas. Somewhere I can warm my body up cause I am FREEZING!

I can dream right

It has been so cold here the last couple of months and I am done with it! I am sooo ready for spring-no wait summer, to get here. I hate being cold all day and I hate having to hang out upstairs for the majority of the day. I hate how winter here in Utah last a gazillion years.  Monday was such a beautiful day that I was able to get a nice 5 mile run in and I figured that Tuesday would be gorgeous to go on another run. I was wrong! It freakin snowed! I was so ticked and got all blue all over again. There is something about winter that makes me all gloomy and down right depresses. Maybe it's because we are inside all day. I go outside and I am cold all darn day. Brock and I stay upstairs as much as we can because it's a lot warmer up there. There are days when I dream that I'm back on a beach in Hawaii or the Philippines just soaking up the warm sun. The sand in between my toes, me in a beach chair with a good book. Oh how I need to go somewhere where I can enjoy the weather without wondering if it's going to snow. Ahh I can dream right.

Anywho, I have been trying to learn my camera a bit and learning how to edit some pictures and it's been fun. I don't have any camera lens just my camera with the kit it came with but I've had fun taking pictures and editing them. I don't want to do it as a business but it's fun to take pictures of my family. I'm going to this little club meeting that teaches you how to use your camera and I am learning lots of cool things. The really neat thing is the guy that has set this up also tells us where we can get equipment for a reasonable price. Hopefully I am able to get a few things that I want so I can take better pictures. For now enjoy the ones I've taken so far.

 Here are all the cousins and I enlarged this and gave it to my in-laws as a gift. My mother in law has wanted a picture of all the grand kids together.

I took some pictures of my friends kids and I loved this little picture. Her boys are cute and crack me up.

 I was playing around with this photo. I was going to do more to it but it took forever and I was done.

 This is my sister in law's family. I'm the best at editing or taking pictures but I have lots of fun playing around and learning how to use the programs. I am learning while playing around. 

Well that is all for now. I thought I would post again and put more pictures up to make up for my lack of posting. Off I go now to dream some more about laying out on a warm beach somewhere.

Busy

So it's been forever since I've last posted anything and I have been just busy. Well I guess not busy but some personal things have come up and I'm cold and have the good ol winter depression blues. I really do hate winter because it's too darn cold to do anything so we are cooped up in the house doing nothing but eat. I am soo ticked off of myself because I gained 10lbs! I usually give myself a 10 lb window for the holidays but this year it just didn't happen. I really haven't ran because it has been cold and I didn't really want to worry about slipping while running. I did get the Biggest Loser game for the wii and I've done it a couple of times but no motivation. I have figured out that I am the kind of person that likes to get away from the house to work out. It's hard to work out at my house because of Brock getting in my way and working out is me time. That's why I love run is because it's me time. I get to get away from it all and just thinking about things and clear my head. I love love going to the gym because it's me time. I do much better losing weight or staying somewhat healthy if I can get away. I have now joined a workout group within my neighborhood on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays for 1hr. It just started on Monday and we did P90X and it was good. I felt soo much happier after working out and it was such a beautiful day that I decided why not go on a 5 mile run. So I did and I loved it! I had the best day on Monday and I was soo happy. I didn't feel all yucky and gloomy. I figure if I can keep that up for a couple of weeks I should be able to lose my 10lbs that I have gained-right?

This month I have started to potty train Brock and he is doing awesome! I would say that he is pretty much potty trained. We still have to put a diaper on at night but he is doing great! I was soo tired of having to constantly change his diaper every 1/2 so I figured if he is telling me to change his diaper he is ready to get potty trained. I was soo scared to potty train him because he had no desire to go potty in the toilet. Whenever I would try to put him on he would kick and scream. One day I was done and we went and got a toilet for him and got him another pack of underwear. I had already bought him a pack (Toy Story) a month or 2 ago. I told him we were going to take his diaper off and go on the toilet and he was fine with it. Well when we got home from the story he kicked and scream about sitting on his new football toilet. I thought there was no way he was going to get potty trained. I had heard that boys were way harder than girls so I knew it was going to be a rough couple of months or even a good 1. I really wanted to get him potty trained by his 3rd birthday, or get semi potty trained so I was determined. Brandon and I told Brock that if he went potty in the toilet and did good we would get him a jazz bear. He absolutely loves the jazz bear. When we watch the jazz games and they are playing home he will try to spot the jazz bear. So the next day Brandon tried to put Brock on his toilet seat and again kicked and screamed so he showed him how daddy goes potty. After that he was fine to sit on the toilet. He did awesome his first day, he had only 2 accidents! I started him in the middle of the week and he seriously had no more than 5 accidents. He did poop his pants and he did not like that at all! For going on 3 weeks he has done soo good. He hasn't gotten his jazz bear because he pooped his pants a couple of times and has had a couple of accidents. I told him once he stops pooping his pants, which has only been 3 times, and goes potty with no accidents we will get his jazz bear. Now the only thing is trying to find one. He has done soo good and I had heard horror stories of how hard boys are to train but honestly my girls were a lot harder than Brock. My girls were always wetting their pull ups. I think that's where I made the mistake with them was pull ups but as soon as I gave them a big incentive (dance) they tried their hardest. I know that nighttime will be the hardest but I'm just glad we don't wear diapers during the day. It was starting to get expensive buying diapers, from Costco every 3 weeks or so.

A couple of days before Christmas I went up and stayed a few days at my parent's house and we took the kids and my brother to Lights at the Bay. It was freezing cold and we waited forever in line to get the stupid horse carriage ride to take us through the park. It would have been faster and warmer if we just went through in the car but we figured we would do this for the kids. My dad started to get grumpy after waiting in line for an hour.

I had to take a picture of my old man because he was starting to get ticked off and I figured I would try to crack a smile by taking his picture. It didn't work.

Making snicker doodles cookies for Santa Claus Christmas Eve

New Year's Eve. We took the kids sledding at a park in Brigham not too far from my parent's house. This was Brock's first year sledding and he loved it. He wanted to go down the hill by himself and bring it up by himself. The kids had fun and mom (me) froze. It was cold that day.

Blah

I am such a horrible horrible blogger now! Life is busy and computer is super super slow now because I have a program on my computer that takes up alot of memory. Brandon's laptop crashed so I have to rely on our desktop. I'm debating on whether or not I should continue blogging because I haven't done it in such a long time so we shall see.
Christmas has come and gone and it was a good Christmas. The kids were sooo excited to see what Santa brought them and no complaining. Honestly, my kids are soo good about not complaining on what they didn't get or a gift that they didn't like. Jazmin decided to wake up at 1 a.m. on Christmas morning that we told her to go back to bed. Brandon and I had just gone to bed about midnight so I was not about ready to get up at 1 a.m. The kids got up a little after 6 and off we were down the stairs. It was fun to be able to see Brock's reaction this year since he's a little older and knows what is going on. He was soo excited to see that Santa brought him a 4 wheeler (a remote control). I swear he saw that and he was done. He had no interest in opening the other gifts. The girls were happy with what they got and that was good. After we hurried and picked up and showered and packed and off to grandma's house we went. Brandon's family had a party planned at 10 10:30 so I asked Brandon if we could stop at my parent's house first to open gifts our gifts that we got from there before my family showed up for the Christmas party on my mom's side of the family. I know 2 family Christmas party back to back. We stopped and opened our gifts and then I stuffed my face with my mom's delicious tamales that she makes every Christmas. They were sooo good. That's one thing that I look forward to during Christmas time are my mom's tamales. I am vowing to learn to make those bad boys this year too and then sell them in the Walmart parking lot-kidding. It was a fun day and boy did I eat. By the end of the night I seriously thought I was going to throw up and not because I was getting my groove on, on my brother's kinect game dance central, but because I ate wayyy too much. It was fun though. I love going to my family's parties because good food and it's fun to hang out with my cousins. Sure they are a lot younger than I am, and I mean a lot like teenagers but it's fun to talk to them.
The kids got to spend a couple of days with their grandparents so that meant a couple of days of peace and quiet. I actually was bored though. The first day I didn't know what to do because it was soo quiet and I wasn't yelling at the kids to stop fighting. I do miss those little kiddos of mine and I am very very grateful that I have the opportunity to be a stay at home mom. I am soo excited to get them on New Year's Eve and take them sledding. My parents took them and Brock loved it. It's going to be fun to be able to see his face in person going down the hill.
2010 is almost gone and I can't wait for 2011. 2010  was a huge trial for us and we will never ever forget our trial that we have gone through. At times it totally sucked but it has helped us see what is truly important and how much we take little things for granted. I am ready to put this year in the past and welcome 2011 with open arms. Happy New Year's everyone!

Busy Busy Busy

Yes it's been a long time since I've last posted anything so here I am posting a little quickie recap of what's been going on the last couple of months.

November- Jazmin turned 8 on November 13th and we headed up north for the family party. She got lots and lots of clothes from all of her aunts and we had a blast partying with family. I did my annual Black Friday shopping and it was just crazy as always. Although, this year was different because Walmart decided to start at midnight but anything electronics started at 5 a.m. I didn't need a new t.v. or camera or laptop so my shopping was going to start at midnight. So I took my pregnant cousin with me to the Brigham Walmart and walked around the store to find the item I wanted. I was going for the Wii Band Hero for my kids because they love love playing band hero, and for $75 it was a steal of a deal. I found where it was at drove my cousin back to my parent's house and went back to Walmart at 8:30 p.m. to stand by my item. I know a little crazy but I know how people get when it comes to Black Friday and I wanted to make sure that I was the first person by band hero so I would have first dibs on it. I got band hero and some other things and waited in line for what seemed like 4 hours to check out. I didn't get out of Walmart until 2:00 a.m. needless to say I was really exhausted since I woke up Thanksgiving morning to go running at 7:30 a.m. in -3 weather. I know a little crazy but I figured it would be a good idea because I knew I would probably be eating a lot of food, which I really didn't grrr. On Saturday my friend and I signed up for the Ogden 5k Santa run and it was fun. We got santa suits with our registration packets and let me tell you they were pieces of hud. As my friend said they were some good quality crap. I am not kidding they bought the cheapest santa suits they could possibly find. I put my pants on and they were starting to tear. While running the race there were some people's pants that actually split in half, that's how cheap those suckers where. The weather wasn't that bad the day of race but it was kind of a boring race cause all we did was run up and down the street 3 times and then on the 3rd lap turned a corner to the finish line but it was fun to see 700 people dress up as santa running. I was pretty proud of myself because I finished the race in 24mins32secs my fastest 5k so I am getting up there to be where I want to eventually be someday speed wise in my races that I do.

December-On the first Saturday of December Jazmin was baptized. I couldn't believe my baby was getting baptized. I couldn't believe that 8 yrs ago we were blessing her and now she was getting baptized. We are soo proud of her and the beautiful girl she is becoming. Yes, she does have her moments and I want to beat her but I love her none the less. She looked beautiful in her dress and I made some cute announcements for family and friends that I will have to post later cause I am typing this post at my parent's house. It was a busy but good day that day. Mariah had her 1st grade Christmas program the following week and it was cute. I love it when the kids get to do their little programs and we as parents get to see them perform. Brock has finally stayed in nursery and I couldn't be happier. He loves it and gives me kisses and tells me bye. What a cute little kid I have. We are fastly approaching Christmas and I can say that I am excited. I am excited that they kids have 2 weeks off and we get to hang out for 2 weeks. Normally I get annoyed when they have time off of school only because I have to deal with the non stop fighting but I think this will be fun. I've got a couple of things that we can do so it should be fun. Right now we are up at my parent's house for a couple of days and then we will be back up for Christmas and Brandon has a couple of days off at work. I am looking forward to Christmas and I can't wait to see my kiddo's faces when they open their presents on Christmas day.

I've tried to recap what's been going on and I will post pictures up once I get back to my house. Merry Christmas everyone!

I saw him!

I saw him, I saw Cody Brown! You know the Cody Brown from the TLC show, Sister Wives. Brandon and I went to lunch at the Olive Garden and as we got up to leave Cody is getting seated. He didn't have any of the wives with him, he actually looked like he was having a lunch meeting. He was in a suit with another guy in a suit but no cameras hahaha.  When he walked in I turned my head to Brandon with this surprised look and we just start to laugh. As we were heading out of the section this waitress lady talked to me and said that he was her table. She didn't seemed pretty pumped that she had to wait on him. She told me that he comes in a lot there. I am thinking that maybe he isn't a good tipper. That is just my guess though, I'm not sure. I have the opportunity to go and take a picture of someone that is REALLY famous and I didn't do anything. That's right, I didn't go up and talk to him, ask for his autograph, or ask for a picture. I remained calm, which actually surprised me a lot. I couldn't tell you why I didn't ask for his picture. Maybe it was because it seemed like he was having an important lunch meeting or something. I am thinking maybe I need to apply at the Olive Garden just so I can be his server. Heheh. I know I am a totally nerd!

Happy 8th Birthday

8 yrs ago today Brandon and I welcomed our first baby girl, Jazmin. I can not believe I have an 8 yr old. Jazmin has been the best daughter I could possibly ask for. Even though she drives me nuts she is such a sweet little girl. She was the best baby ever and she is still the best. I love how she always wants to help out. Happy Birthday Jazmin!

And So It Begins

The cold weather has hit and I'm not too pumped about it. I hate, hate, hate the cold and snow. I hate driving in it, I really hate playing in it, I hate how it can all of a sudden snow in May. Snow and I are not friends what so ever. I seriously think it should only snow on Christmas Day and that's it, but I have to deal with it and right now I am dealing with it. It has been sooo cold this last week and I can just feel  a big snow storm coming really soon. That was one good thing about living in the Philippines was that it never snowed. I can handle the heat and the rain but not snow. Oh well. On a brighter note today the girls and I are going to start decorating the house for Christmas! I love Christmas and we've got a few things planned for the holidays so I can't wait. This year we are going to take the kids on a sleigh ride at Hardware Ranch so that should be fun. I told Brandon we will make sure the kids are all bundled up so they won't be to cold. I think Brock would totally love it because we get to see Elk. We are going to watch Christmas movies all together as a family at least once a week or so. I have a Christmas book that we read a story once a day all the way until Christmas Day. I started that last year and the girls want to do it again this year. I am going to make sure that I keep the Christmas Spirit instead of being all grumpy at the store because there are never ever ever people working at Walmart and you have like 4 people ahead of you. I am going to try to not yell at people in my head because they will not move and are just standing in the middle of the aisle staring at the toys. Ok I may get mad at those two things but I want to make sure that my kids know that Christmas isn't about getting presents it's about family, friends, giving, helping. I want to make sure that my kids know that there are others that are less fortunate and don't get to have Christmas. Hopefully I can teach my kids that and they will understand. Bring on the Christmas music and Christmas decorations.

New Month

Hooray that it's November! Call me a scrooge, but I am soo excited Halloween is done and over with. It was just a busy day that day and I just wasn't feeling all that great. The kids had fun and Brock loved going trick or treating again this year. I would walk with him up to the doors and towards the end of our trick or treating he told me to stay there. He didn't want me to come with him up to the doors anymore. What a little stink bug. He had fun going trick or treating with his sisters and Grandma Pena. It was pretty sad because Brock told his dad he didn't want him going trick or treating with him he wanted Grandma. This kid is already starting not to want us around, sad. I'm glad that November is here and I want to make sure that I will keep the holiday cheer up and not be too grumpy. In a way I just want this year to be over with because of everything that we have gone through. It has been a good learning year and I have learned A LOT this year. This month is going to be busy because of all the birthdays in November but I am going to try to not stress this month and just make it fun. So here's to November and lots of fun!

Halloween Shoot

So I've joined a photography club near where I live and I think it will be fun. I will be able to learn how to use my camera in manual mode and learn about lighting and other photography secrets that I would learn in a photography class offered at the high school through UVU but this is free! I love free things these days. It's a guy and his wife and he takes amazing pictures. Last Saturday we did a Halloween photoshoot in his basement and this is what I got with my camera.

Catch Up

Ok so I'm trying to do a little picture catch up. I finally uploaded pictures to the computer and they go back to the first day of school. I know that's been like 1 1/2 month. I say better late than never though, right.

We went to Temple Square one Sunday. We figured we would go on a beautiful sunny day since we always go in the winter when it's cold.

Brandon turned 30 on October 9th and I thought of doing a little surprise party for him at the last minute. Well not like last minute day of but last minute week of his birthday. I called up my friend, Ericka and asked for her  help in decorating the house while we were at dinner. She did great and Brandon was actually surprise about the whole thing. We didn't have too many people but we had a whole bunch of kids that enjoyed the cake that I got him.

 Apparently Wal-Mart doesn't know how to spell Birthday

So the house was decorated way cute but I took pictures towards the end of the night after the kids took down balloons and stuff. I know that 30 isn't over the hill but I like to give my husband crap for being sooo old!

Finally! Mariah lost her first tooth the day after her dad's birthday. She is in 1st grade and finally lost it. Jazmin lost her first in preschool and was pretty toothless by 1st grade. I was kind of sad when Mariah lost her first tooth because that just means she is growing up and losing her cute little baby teeth. Man they grow up soo fast don't they.

 She wanted her dad to pull her tooth out for her

 It was one little pull and it was out

 Proudly showing her gap in her mouth

Tried out the automatic button on my camera. We were at his parent's house for my sister in law's baby blessing.

Well I've got more pictures that I will put up as soon. Gotta get the kiddos all tuckered in for bed.

Thank You

Dear Biggest Loser
 I would like to express how extremely happy I am that I am finally watching your show. Because of your show my husband has gained motivation that he can to lose weight like the contestants on your show. I am extremely proud of Brandon for sticking to a diet for the past 2 weeks now. He is eating right and is exercising. He has lost weight and I am proud of him. Your show is amazing and I love how it touches people's lives. Thank you for all that you do to help change people's lives.

Family

So I have a cousin named Josh and I haven't seen him in like 15 or so years. So when I found out that he was in town I had to figure a way to go see him. He arrived in Brigham Sunday night and was only staying until Thursday. I wanted to see him so badly and we had just gone up north Saturday and went home that night. Brandon and I were both feeling sick that we stayed home Sunday. I decided I really wanted to see him so I checked the girls out of school on Tuesday afternoon and headed up north. It was kind of a short visit because he had plans to head to Salt Lake with some cousins so I got to visit with him for a couple of hours. It was nice being able to sit and talk to him and for him to meet my kids. It's been a long time and I'm glad that I was able to see him. Oh Josh is on the right side wearing red.

Stalker

Ok for most of you that don't know I am a celebrity freak. If I saw someone famous I would totally freak out. One day I will be able to bump into someone that is famous and get their picture taken with them. That's a goal I have, I know that's pretty sad but I totally dig celebrities. I have no clue why I just do. I haven't yet been up to Sundance Film Festival and I'm pretty sure my husband won't want to go with me. I think for fear that I may embarrass him. I pretty sure he was thankful he wasn't with me when I won backstage passes to the Tim Mcgraw and Faith Hill concert a couple of years ago. I screamed and ran around like a crazed women, but who could blame me I was going to see Tim Mcgraw and Faith Hill up close. Anyways the point about this blog is that there is a new show on t.v. called Sister Wives and it's based on a polygamist family here in Lehi, Utah. When Brandon and I first heard about the show I wasn't going to watch it because who wants to see a show about polygamist, right? Well then I found out that this family lived here in Lehi so I wanted to see where in Lehi the lived. So Brandon and I watched it one Sunday and knew exactly where this family lives. Ever since I've figured out where they lived I've been dying to go and see this house. I have seen this house many of times and I know where it's at but go figure I can't find the place for the life of me. I have the worse since of directions it's not even funny. I even asked a neighbor where it's at since she went to find the house also, and she's taken a couple of her friends. So I think I'm going to have to have Brandon take me to this house. I don't know why I want to. I guess it's the fact that I've seen this family on t.v. and they live not too far from us. I know lame. The show is now over but it's pretty interesting and it's kind of neat to see places that we know or been to on t.v. I guess my life has lead to stalking this family. I need to start running again and I would if it didn't hurt to run. I'm thinking it's time to head into the doctor to see what's going on with it.

Beautiful Girls

I may be a little biased but I think I have the most gorgeous girls in the whole wide world.

 

 I have a neighbor down the street that was looking for models and so I sent her pictures of my girls and she wanted to take their pictures. This is what we got and I ABSOLUTELY love them. Gotta admit I do a good job making these girls, well with the help of Brandon that is. Love my girls.
