Spending Time with the Family

-
This last weekend was Spring Break for me. On Thursday, Brittani and I took a 4 hour road trip to Ruby Valley, Nevada to spend time with Rex, Shauna, and Everett. It was the most fun we've had for a long time. We arrived Thursday night and had dinner. Everett is getting so big and has started taking a few steps. His birthday is coming up on the 27th. Brittani and I went in on a birthday present with my brothers for the little guy. We got him a little fire truck for him to ride on. It plays music and other sounds with the push of a button. Everett really enjoyed it. He played the song over and over again, and I could tell that his parents were going to really enjoy this addition to his toy collection. On Friday, Rex and I took out the four-wheelers to check on all of the recently-born calves. One cow gave birth to twins, but only cared for one of them. So we had to bring the other one back to the barn and bottle-feed it along with some other leppy calves. It was quite the experience. Rex and I also had the liberty of taking care of quite a few ground squirels. They tear up the field and make pretty big holes that are a burden on the cows. That was a lot of fun. On Saturday, Rex and I went out to check on the calves again and took care of some more squirels. Brittani and I came home Sunday afternoon and relaxed and got ready for the upcoming week.

It sounds like you guys had a great time. I didn't know that some animals had more than one baby, but chose not to take care of all of them. That's so sad. Poor baby calf. Luckily Rex is there to take care of it. I'm glad you and Boots are doing well. I miss you guys so much! I feel like I'm missing you guys more & more each day. It sucks! We want our best friends back! Tell Boots hi for us. Love you guys!

It's interesting to run across a blog that's largely written by the man of the house. All the blogs that I frequent are written by women, though they are almost always attached. Good to know we can check up on you guys every once in a while. Do the same if you get bored! Lynsi has a link on her page.

Hey Everybody! We're Pregnant!!! We're in our 2nd Trimester now. Brittani is due sometime during the middle of November. Don't feel bad if you didn't know before hand. NOBODY (not even parents) has known until now! I figured this is the easiest way to tell everybody. Wish us luck!

I Finally Did It!!!

I've been slowly getting more and more into this blog thing. For months I have been wanting to update our blog to be "cute." I knew what I needed to do, I just never made the time to do it. Today, I finally took some time out to upgrade the 'ol blog. Thanks to Lynsi I was able to add our picture at the top and add a playlist. Thanks Lyns! So for all of you with amazingly cute blogs, I hope you enjoy the makeover ours got today.  On a different note... I have recently been playing around with my bangs. I've had side bangs for a couple of years now and I have been brave enough to trim them as they have grown out in between hair cuts. Well, a few weeks ago I was brave enough to trim them so that I could have "front bangs." This was a very brave step for me because I'm usually not one to try something so drastically different. This new look was inspired by Reese Witherspoon from the movie Four Christmases. After Jason and I saw it I just had to try out t...

It's official! Jason and I are moving to TEXAS! Most of you already know, but this is my official announcement to all of our friends and family that we are moving! I'm really excited about this move and the opportunity to be closer to my dad and siblings. I know we're leaving Josh and Sharon, but they wont be too far behind us in moving down there. I'm really excited to be more apart of Nathan and Natalie's lives. I'm SOOO excited to go to Nate's football games and Natalie's drill team performances and choir concerts. I've been gone for 7 years and it's time for me to be back and be more involved! Plus Lynsi and I will be able to share clothes again! :) I realize we are moving down at the hottest time of the year, but I will be thrilled when it's snowing in Utah around Halloween and we're still wearing t-shirts! However, I will miss Utah . Utah is a beautiful place to live and I will miss all of my family and friends here. ...
