A Little Update

So I am slowly getting the hang of all of this blog stuff! I found the USB cable to my old camera so I am now able to post some pics again. However, I somehow don't have any updated pics of Austin and I so for now our header pic looks ancient! Sorry mom! We should be taking some new pics soon!

Everything has been going really well for us! I'm still waiting to find out if our house has sold and trying to keep on top of everything with Kaydree and Brayden's new phase in life...best friends and enemies within 0.0001 secs.!!! I do love being their mommy though. I also have gotten into the 5 am gym thing again for the past 2 weeks!! Thanks to my friend Erin for going with me! I feel great though and have convinced myself this time to do either a half or whole marathon in May! It's amazing what a little self time can do to one's self sanity! Austin has been staying busy building houses and we have been very blessed by his hard work! Thanks to tithing this month we got a call saying that another family wants a house built soon too! Austin is an amazing husband who somehow manages to do it all! Hopefully this new President thing Today will be a change for the best! Until then we'll keep crossing our fingers!

Heading Off in the Right Direction

This New Year seems to have started out in the right direction:

To top off my list:


1. Kaydree is Potty Trained!! That's right!! We're still working at the all night thing but daytime speaking...it's official!!

2. I managed to read
Twilight finally!! I have always wanted to and got the book for my birthday. And I read it in only 3 days! That is some sort of record for me. I snagged it in here and there and even woke up at night to read it. It's alright I guess :). Now I need to see the movie!

3. We have a finished mantle and a few other odds and ends projects done around the house! Just in time to sell it....that's still in the making or in the air so to speak. But it all looks so beautiful!!

4. I have a new cell phone. I bid on ebay and won! It was only $0.99!! I also got a new wallet and Austin got me a new purse for Christmas...so my most used possessions are getting restocked slowly. I feel like things are back together for sure. And my highlight was when I got a new Driver's License. Austin and I headed for the Philippines on my 21st birthday and so I got my license renewed a few days before. Well, since I was inder 21 in Idaho they place your info vertical on the card and so ever since then I've been a 24 year old with a under 21 year old license. It was a big deal to me people! Now, everything's completely to my standards of wanting to get older every year!!

5. My fetish of loving to organize started up in full swing again!! This was caused by one full day of sunlight for me!!! There is nothing more fun to me than cleaning and organizing!!

6. And.....it's official, I am feeling a little/lot baby hungry again!! I know what you're all thinking...it's a new year though....I'm up for a challenge! It doesn't come and end over night though so don't panic! :)

7. I am so excited that Biggest Loser started up again! I absolutely love this show!! I have been known to schedule or ditch appt. due to this show! I just love it...and I really couldn't tell you why. :) I also started watching the Bachelor which I probably shouldn't have because I have a feeling my family might struggle with this for the next few weeks! And to think I usually hate TV!!

All in all I am really liking the start to this New Year!!! It seems like all of you have started on your resolutions and while I have mine of my own I don't want to disappoint or make anyone feel jealous( :) ) so good luck to everyone and Happy New Year!!!

I will work on posting pics. I am missing some sort of attachment to my computer for my old camera!
