School Picture

While we were in Snowflake my sister Michelle had me go to the school with her and get Jetts pictures taken! I am so glad I did they turned out cute he looks so big!

Back to Life and Busy!

Finally after a week of being home I am organized enough to put some pictures of Jeremy’s Elk on my blog! We have been very busy getting life back to normal! This week Jace had two football games, JV and Varsity! We went to both of them Jett loves the games! Jace did very well, we are so proud of him. After Jace’s game on Friday night we went with Josh and Cassi McRae out for ice cream at Nelsons Frozen Custard! We had so much fun with them! You better believe that we saw like 5 other friends while we were there! Joseph and Heather Ballard were one of them! I am so excited for them, I have been there Realtor on there new house and it closes this week!! Yeah BALLARD!! Busy times Jett also turned 11 months on the 6th I can’t believe that he will be ONE year old next month! TIME is going by so fast!!

HUNTING!

WHAT A GREAT DAY!!!!

Today Jeremy got his Bull Elk! He is a good looking Bull and we are Happy to be heading home!! I will post more pictures when I have a better chance to work on the computer.

Missing HOME!

I feel like I have fallen off the planet! We haven’t been home for 13 days! And I still have 10 to go! I miss you GILBERT!! We went camping for 5 of those days with the Mills family! We had a lot of fun, after the camping we went to my Moms house and have been here since! Jeremy got drawn for a archery Bull Elk tag, so he is off hunting and we are just hanging with my Mom and my Sister Michelle! It has been fun, but I sure miss my BED and HOME!! When I get back into town I will post all my pictures of our adventures! Hope ALL is well with everyone!!

Jett's New Ride!

I am not very good at updating my blog as much as I should. I feel like I need to do better and make it more like my journal. On Sunday Uncle Scott was playing with Jett and made a fun little toy car with my laundry basket!!

He loves Scott and had so much fun being pushed around!

NEW BOOKS

Last Night Grandma and Grandpa Smith came over and gave Jett a whole bunch of fun books!! Thanks to Dani, Mindi, Jace, Kerby and Justin for sharing JETT LOVES THEM!

OUR NEW CAMP TRAILER!

I am getting so excited to go camping!! I just had to post a picture of our new camp trailer! It is just a pop-tent trailer but it is way better than a tent!! I have it all ready! Stocked with everything we need to camp, I figured out that we will be camping all but seven days in September!

FIRST TOOTH

Jett got his first two teeth and he got his first shiner on the couch!

He is so dang cute!

MY CURTAINS

THEY ARE FINISHED!! YES THEY ARE BLUE!!! I have been getting a mixed feelings on then but I love them!! Now onto the pillows, white blinds, crown molding, art work and plants and the room will looking much better!!

Do you ever feel like you have your hand in to many things??

Sometimes I feel like I have way too many things going on so I started to make a list of what I do or should be doing all day.

First and most importantly being a wife to the love of my life Jeremy and a Mom to Jett which includes, feedings, changing dirty diapers, baths, keeping my eyes on him at all times, entertaining, singing, reading stories, going on walks, and constantly trying to figure out what he wants. Not to mention the fact that is he always on my mind, (even when I am sleeping I am listening for him).
Then there is the house, cleaning, bathrooms, vacuuming, sweeping, the dishwasher that is loaded at least once or twice a day, picking up toys and books, dusting, and the deep cleaning is at least three paragraphs of its own. Then the laundry is a 24-7 job, load after load, and then the ironing and folding takes all day. On to the grocery shopping, it is like an all day event planning the meals and coming up with a list of the things we have and don’t have. Then getting my self ready and Jett with enough toys to last us is a chore. Dinner planning and cooking takes at least one hour plus clean up. On to the bills and making sure things are taken care of financially. Which brings me to my part time job at KS Appraisal, which has been so awesome to pick and choose hours but the point is I need hours so I spend most of my spare time working for them. I also have a vinyl letter cutting machine (I used to do it as a business) so I have several people who still use me for things. I love cutting vinyl for people, the designing is my favorite part, but it all takes time! I am also the Mia Maid advisor in our ward, so I teach every Sunday, so all week I work on my lesson and try to get my thoughts together! Every Tuesday night I have mutual so I am down at the church for at least two hours! I can’t forget that I am also a visiting teacher and do that once a month!
For the last few months I have been working every spare second on my formal living room drapes!! I am proud to say that after 4 trips to Scottsdale, 3 trips to Joann’s 10 trips to Wal-Mart and 1 trip to Home Depot, I HAVE FINISHED THEM!! I still have the pillows to make and to find some art and that room will be completely done. On to my real estate mess!! I have been taking my renewal hours I have to have 24 credit hours before September 30th so I have been taking classes like crazy to finish them, while trying to manage a few real estate deals. Oh I can’t forget to add to this list that I love my Blog and try to keep it updated!
I feel like my life is so crazy sometimes, but the crazier is gets the more blessed I feel. I can’t even begin to tell someone how I feel about life! How wonderful it is!! How blessed I feel to live in a free country and do all of these things!

World’s Best Creation MUNCHKINS

My good friend told me about the world’s best creation so I went to Target and got us two Munchkins, they are so awesome you can put all kinds of fruits and veggies even cookies in them. Jett can’t eat big chucks, skins, or seeds!! I put him in his high chair and he just munches away and I don’t worry about him!

This past week my sister Michelle and her kids, Hailey, Tanner and Brayden came to say with us! We had so much fun, swimming, mack & cheese, shopping, making chocolate covered pretzels, car batteries dieing, dirty dipers, loosing cell phones, out to eat and just

spending good o' times together!

LOT OF MEMORIES

LITTLE KAZOO PLAYER

After we got home from our little camping trip, our little Jett came down with a cold/fever/teething? For one whole day he just laid around not feeling well. In his basket of toys he found a kazoo. I have no clue how it got there but he loves it and can play it like a champ!! He watched Jeremy play it a few times and now he is hooked!! That day that he was sick he would not put it down he carried it around all day just playing it every now and then!

On July 12th-14th we went to the Passey reunion at canyon creek!! It was so much fun! It was really nice to see everyone and get to cooler country, Jeremy was able to practice a lot on his bow he is getting so good! Jett had a few hard nights with out his bed!

OUR NEW RIDE!

AFTER SHOPPING FOR WEEKS WE FINIALLY FOUND A NEW TRUCK!

8 MONTHS OLD!

Jett loves his Aunt Holly!! 8 Months old today and getting so big!

Silly Forgetfulness

This week has been so much fun! On Tuesday we went to the new Bass Pro Shop in Mesa. I was so excited to go, I was going to take a lot of pictures with the animals and just have a good time! When we got there I pulled out my camera to get start shooting away and realized that I had forgotten my compact flash card!! Nice huh! Um... so no pictures of us, but I founds some on line so just pretend we are in them!! We then went out to dinner at my favorite resturant the Olive Garden. I just love spending time with my boys!! Jett loved the Bass Pro Shop!! He was so good the whole night!!

Rockets' Red Glare

Happy 4th of July!!

We feel so blessed to live in the United States of America, and in our beautiful Home Town of Gilbert, Arizona!!

Does it seem like we live in Snowflake? We don’t, it just seems like it, but is sure is nice to get out of the heat! Jeremy played in a softball tournament for the 4th of July! He did very well, his team placed third over all! It was so much fun to see all our family and friends and be together!

4th of July Weekend in Snowflake
