March Review!

Isaac and I went on a field trip w/ his preschool to the WJ firestation.

Lots of dressing up. Isaac got some $ to spend and this is what he picked out, a transformer costume.

Different view of our Optimus Prime (I think it is hilarious that he loves transformers because he never seen a movie or cartoon of them. He has one book and coloring book of them)

More missing teeth for Miah.

I went to the Scrapbook Expo and had a great time! I even surprised myself by getting the most pages done (which is a record for me because I take forever on a page).

Time has gone by so FAST!

I can't believe it has been more than a month since my last post. We have been busy working and playing.
JD's work schedule has been changed. Now he always works Monday-Friday instead of two Sunday on and two Sundays off. We will miss the three day weekends, but at least he still has a job!
We bought a van on Jan 17. It has been SO NICE to have a vehicle at home with me! I feel like I get a lot more done while JD is at work now. I'm also excited to have it so next year I can get Miah in a dance class and Isaac involved in something.
We bought a new couch and will be getting it on Monday. We are so excited! We love all the hand me down stuff our families have given us, but are so excited to finally be able to pick out some of our own!
We love tax returns!

We had a fun time at the safe kids fair at the Expo Center on Saturday! We are always glad that we go even though it is crowded. We got bike helmets for the kids for $5! and got some great coupons and samples. Thanks for going with us Tiscia, Nate and Zac!

Count your Blessings

Man, so many things have been happening to people that we care about. Today one of the nicest people that I have ever met passed away. Maelynn was only 30. She was married two weeks after me and has 5 kids. My heart is so full right now thinking of Andrew and their kids. I can't imagine what that would be like. We are glad she is not hurting anymore, but will surely miss her.
We are also thinking of my distant cousin and former USU roommate, Erin Hansen. She had her baby at 23 weeks. Baby Julia is now 2 weeks and had a heart surgery over the weekend.
Also a friend up at USU was Kelli Johnson. I posted about her on FB. She was in a terrible skiing accident on Christmas Eve. Her daughter died that was just about a year younger than Miah and she is still in the hospital fighting to get her life back.
Our good friends, Jeff and Tiscia, have been going through a lot lately too.
Lastly, I'm thinking of my Aunt Sharon. Her last day at FPSC was on Friday. I will miss seeing her there and am thinking of her all the time.
I'm just thinking and praying for all these people wishing that there was more that I could do besides sending them my love.
It makes me realize that I really need to be THANKFUL for all my family and friends and am thankful for everything that I have. If you can add these people into your prayers or good thoughts this week it would be appreciated!!
