Blue spit up on her pajamas last night.  So I went and got her another pair to put her in.  My husband then asks me, "Why don't you just dress her for the day?".  Am I the only one who doesn't like to dress their kids up everyday?  The girls and I have been sick for over a week now and I haven't gotten out of my PJ's that whole time.  I have dressed the girls more then I have gotten dressed myself.

I'm really dropping my head in shame. 

 Unless I have to go somewhere real quick, I don't get dressed in anything beside my tshirt and Pajama pants.  I know it's horrible, but I feel better in my comfy clothes.  (I'm between sizes in clothes.  I have NO PANTS that fit right.  Either too small or too big.)  The kids aren't going anywhere either.  It's a red air day outside again and I hate to have them breath that in if they don't have to.

I receive the under achiever award for the year of 2010.  Thank you, thank you. . .

So I have started to ride again. It has been 1 1/2 years since I last rode. I thought that I was going to be able to ride a lot during my pregnancy. That was before I found out I was having two. I found out two days after I had just shown a full day of eventing. I guess it was a great way to end it. We went and did a trail ride up by Snowbasin. The leaves were all changing and it was beautiful weather. Couldn't have asked for a better way to start it off. These are my babies. They are great horses, and have been great fun to play with.

I have wondered if when the girls grow up if they will like to ride. I really hope they do, but I'm sure if they won't I'll be ok too. It's probably cheaper. Everyone have a great holiday weekend!

I'd like to blame the fact that I haven't blogged for awhile on the unhappy circumstance of my computer crashing. BUT we all know that I'm just horrible at blogging on a regular basis. So my computer decided that it wanted a 3 week vacation. Which would have been fine if it had just asked me before going. Thankfully it was just Windows that had problems, so that we could keep all 3000 plus pictures I have on here. I really need to get a system of backing things up. I'm sure I'll get to it one of these days. Right? Probably not.

Any who, we have had lots of things going on! Girls are doing great, and thankfully I have a lot of help with them! Being a mom has been wonderful, and the girls find new ways to entertain me everyday. And we have been having beautiful fall weather! FINALLY! Tyler is taking off to deer hunt all weekend and I have to find things to keep us from going stir crazy. If anyone has any ideas, we would love to hear them.

So my lovely SIL Holly, has inspired me to try my hand at refinishing furniture. She is absolutely fabulous at crafty and artsy things. And I aspire to be like her everyday. So I'm looking for a dresser or a really classy chair to refinish on KSL. I will blog about these every so often (since I have so much time to refinish things) and let you know what I have been up to. I'd like to get my creativeness flowing again. I am also wanting to get out and take pictures, so if there is anyone who would like to join me, just let me know. Have a wonderful week!

Just a quick blog post. I wanted to post some of the pictures I have been messing around with. Now that I have a little time, I love playing around with them. The first two are of the girls in Oregon on the ocean. We had a great time there!


The girls love camping! I couldn't have asked for anything more. These two are ready to head out! This is a trip up to Snake River when we go run the river for a week. This year we were trying to surf the Big Kahuna backwards. We didn't quite get it, but we will next year!

We are so blessed with beautiful, healthy girls. Also we found out this spring that Tyler is getting into nursing school! He starts on the 25th, a whole year ealier than anticipated! Life is good!

Short Year!

So I thought that because it had been a year (almost) that I should probably update my blog. :) I think it has to have been the most eventful, hard, joyous, and weird year I've ever had in my life. But I wouldn't trade it for anything.

This is Elli Ann. She is very playful, dramatic, and full of laughs and smiles. I could always tell where she was before I gave birth. She kept me most nights (while I was pregnant and after). She has mastered the superman and is always experimenting with new noises that she can make. She recently has become infatuated with her hands. She always knew they were there, but now she is always taking a closer look at them, cross eyed. :)

Dad fell asleep during conference, so Elli thought that would be a good idea as well. Chole and I are the die hards.

Back in the day when Elli would just sit there.

This is our Chloe Blue. She is shy, quiet, bashful, and wonderfully sweet. And I could NEVER tell where she was when I was pregnant. It took the doctor 5 minutes to finally pull her out from under my rib cage. She did NOT want to come out. Chloe likes to sleep. Which is really fine with me. She is a very happy baby, when she is sick she never complains. She was allergic to my milk, and we didn't realize it till she was around 3 months old, cause she never fussed or complained.



Love the hands. It reminds me of Mr. Burns from the Simpsons.


I have a very hard time thinking this is what I was like for the better part of 7 months. This picture was taken 4 weeks before delivery. By week 39 I couldn't walk more than a few feet before I had to sit down. Thankfully Tyler was home to push me around in a wheelchair. :) It is a dream to have him home still. I am so grateful that everything turned out wonderful this year. I couldn't ask for more than healthy babies and a wonderful husband!
