Zoo Tradition

The South Family has the tradition of meeting up at the Zoo every 24th of July ( yes, I am really that far behind on Blogging ). It's always way too hot but it's the only time we go for the whole year and we have a good time. Tradition is special to us. I always look back on things that we always kept tradition on my side of the family and I hope my kids keep the things we do tradition when they are older.

I am glad that the zoo didn't keep us there...We are a bunch of animals...party animals!!

how many years!!?

I don't know how many times I have said it and I don't know how many more times I will say it but I love Face book!! I have been able to re-connect with so many friends! I have been able to see pictures of their children, who they married and where life has taken them...besides the fact that I totally feel popular, it's just amazing to me. I was feeling lost, not really had people I could talk to. Don't get me wrong I have some wonderful ladies in my ward and have grown quiet close to a few of them, but there is always something new and refreshing re-kindling friendships and have an even bigger support group. This has also led to blog stocking. It just feels like I haven't missed out on a thing!!

It was so nice to catch up with these ladies. I think it's been 15 years since I last saw any of them. They are all still so beautiful and their children are little cuties ( oh, and their men, aren't too shabby either ).

Thanks Devon for inviting me to your little get together. It meant so much to me, more then you'll ever know!!
I can't wait until we get together again..until then...I'll be seeing you!!

3-0

Jason won his third fight against this girly looking man. ( He's girly because of his long eyelashes and modeling career!! ) It was great and it was over fast. I still love watching Jason do what he loves to do. I am glad that he has something to take his aggression out on. Poor opponents :) He won in the first round by grabbing hold of the guy and wrapping him self around him pulling him to the ground and choking him out. I would of rather seen him break the guys nose but hey that's okay!!

Thanks to all of our friends and family that came to support him again. I love that all of us get together and cheer him on. I know it motivates him!!

A~T~A trip!!

The three of us like to plan a little get away once or twice a year. Our plan this trip was to stay at the nutt house one night and then splurge and stay one night in Las Vegas. Well it didn't go quiet the way we planned. When we arrived at the nutthouse we stumbled upon a flood. It seems that the hose on the back of the fridge split and water had been spraying out that hose for almost a month. So we ended up staying at Aspen's house the one night and then doing a double night splurge in Vegas. Over all, the trip was a success. We walked, and walked, and walked in Vegas, caught a movie, went shopping of course and had some yummy desert. The casino we stayed in was really nice. I am glad that we got away. These two gals of mine are great!!

I already can't wait for our next trip...In January, I think :)

Twilight girls

Yes, we are part of those crazies that need to go out and watch all of the Twilight movies. And yes, we have our little girls involved in all the whoop-la. We scored tickets to a special preview to eclipse from My Allstate agent ( who is the best by the way!! )and were able to take my niece Paiton and Maddie along with My Sister in Law Larkyn, My Momma and Sister. It was a great afternoon out.
I think it's funny that all the women get freaked out. I love to people watch and I love that my girls get all giggly!!
Can't wait for the next one!!!

Where do you sleep!!?

My kids can sleep just about any where it's getting them to sleep that's the problem. I am always finding them in weird positions or in weird places. Crazy kids!!

Eternity

My Grahms waited a good 60 years to be sealed to my Grandpa and their Children. Unfortunately it couldn't take place until my Gramps was deceased. I also have and Aunt and Uncle that are deceased as well and all of us gathered except one to take part in this special day. I was able to stand in for my Aunt and I two cousins join in on being a stand in for my Gramps and Uncle. I could barley control my emotions. I cried most of the morning. The spirit was so strong in the Temple and it truly was amazing to be a part of it. I knew that my Gramps, Aunt Catherine and Uncle John...and my Dad were all there as witnesses in this special occasion. I know no one on the other side opposed to what we were doing. The Heaven's were definitely celebrating along with us.

I am truly thankful for the Plan of Salvation and all that the Lord and Savior has done for me and my Family. I can testify that Families are Forever!!

Thanks again Grahms for letting be a part of your special day!! Here is to Eternity!!

no bore fourth

We had a fun filled Fourth of July Weekend. Started off with Swimming and BBQ on the 3rd and then a lazy day on the 4th. It is amazing what a couple of dollars worth of fireworks will do to entertain us. Good times. I am so grateful for our freedom and for our troops who help us!!
