Its getting Hot Hot Hot!

The weather here has been nice and hot. We have been taking advantage of that and going to the beach and splash park lately. The boys love it and so do I . That way I can work on my tan.

Soccer

Ethan has also been in soccer lately. At first I was a little scared thinking like is he going to listen to his coach. Ethan surprised me, he did so well. He loved it. He learned how to stop the ball.

They took turns kicking to each other. The only problem is not touching the ball with his hand. All the kids were doing it it was so cute to watch them play. His first game is this weekend and were all excited for it. Ben is also helping out with the coach. So that's been really fun for him.

I'm here.,,

I know it's been a while since I posted anything but with two kids you tend to be really busy. Here are somethings that we been up to lately. The end of February we took Ethan with some of our other friends to the Monster Jam. Ethan was so excited ! He couldn't wait to go and see all those huge monster trucks.Before the show we had a tail gate party. some of the other boys played football.

Ethan and mason were a little to young to join them so they played swords with the tree.

We had such a great time. Ethan loved the whole show. He didn't want to leave.
Here are some other pictures from that night.

Going potty for pennies

So this week I have been working with Erech on going potty. He is doing an awesome job. So far he has had one accident. He is staying dry at night too. Man doing this the second time has been really easy. I think Erech sees Ethan going so he wants to go too. I started giving Erech money each time he goes potty. Its only pennies , but I told him when he fills hes jar up I would take him to go get a new toy. This has been working really well for us. If there is any one who is having a hard time potty traning maybe give this a try.

Yummmy!!

As many of you know I love Bread. Especially when its warm with butter. I've been wanting a bread maker forever. Finally the other day when I was getting ready to go out with my sister, My hubby comes up to me gives me some money and says " Go buy yourself a bread maker. Oh man was I happy! I think he saw me checking some out online. I made my first loaf yesterday and it turned out great. I'm sorry to say I don't have a picture because we ate it all as soon as it came out. It was that good. Next time I make one I will show you guys. I Love you hubby. Thanks!

Valentines Day

I had a great valentines day. My husband and I went to Orlando to see the Blue Man Group. Wow were they amazing. We had such a great time. The show was entertaining from start to finish. If you haven't seen it go and see it! Before the show we had a great romantic dinner at Hard Rock. We got to sit up stair at there out side balcony.
The view was great.
We celebrated valentines day Friday night. We also got to do something Saturday. Our friends at our ward put a dance together.That was so much fun. I think I can say that we all had a great time.

My new nephew Baby Michael

Last night I was able to finally see my new nephew Michael. My sister in-law gave Birth to him on Friday January 23rd. He's so precious. I think he looks just like mom and dad. Congratulations to mike and Allison on there new baby boy.

Book #2

So this weekend I was able to read another book. This book is called Long Journey Home By Amber Esplin. It's about
Bridget McKenna has had her future mapped out ever since she was small. But when Bridget's mother dies in a car accident, her careful plans get derailed. Bridget must move across the country to live with a father she hasn't seen since her parents divorced years before. As she leaves behind the life she once knew, Bridget holds onto a single hope: make it through her senior year and then return home. Getting through the year, however, may not be so simple. Bridget uncoves secrets from the past that threaten to steer her toward an uncertain future.
This book got really good towards the end.
If you have a book that your reading right now will you share it with me? I need to get another book to read. Or maybe you can tell me what your favorite book is.

Time with my sister and Friend

Today I had the opportunity to spend time with my sister and my friend Sarah. We started our day be going to the temple. I don't think they were to excited when I told them we were leaving at 7:30. I mean who wants to get up that early on Saturday. They were great troops and did it. We had a great time at the Temple. We later went to the book store and had lunch at Loco Tropical. I had a great time with them.

The Wednesday Letters

One of my many New Years resolution was to read a new book once a month. So for the month of January I read The Wednesday Letters.
The Wednesday Letters is the story of Jack and Laurel. Married 39 years, the Coopers lived a good life and appear to have had a near-perfect relationship. Then one night, with his wife cradled in his arms, and before Jack takes his last breath, he scribbles his final "Wednesday Letter."

When their three adult children arrive to arrange the funeral, they discover boxes and boxes full of love letters that their father wrote to their mother on every single Wednesday. As they begin to open and read the letters, the children uncover unimaginable adventures and the shocking truth about their past.

The Wednesday Letters has a powerful message about redemption and forgiveness. And it just might inspire you to begin writing your own Wednesday Letters.

I really enjoyed this book. I liked it so much that I read it in a day and a half.

The most important lesson to be learned from this book is the one about forgiveness. You have have the chance and want to read a book try this one out.
