In Trouble..

I have been so busy lately and have not been on the internet, but I keep getting in troule for not posting so here it goes. We had a great summer. Lots of fun trips. School is back in. We just finished homecoming week so I think that I have a few months where my life wont be so busy.

Alexa started pre-school. She loves it. We are in the new house, but there is still a lot of work to be done on it.

I have been keping a list of funny things Alexa has said lately so her are the more recent ones.

-My cell phone has been having problems lately. Anyone who is around me knows that I keep it in my bra a lot. Well my mom was asking me if it wasnt working because it got wet. I said no and Alexa piped in with "except for boob sweat."

-I have been going with a group of singles to Stoney's to go country line dancing. I was telling my mom how Thursday is ladies night and that is why we go because we get in free. Alexa asked, "what about boys in dresses?"

-"I think Heavenly Father laughs at me when I do funny things"

-Alexa told me I could be her side kick

-Alexa told my sister KT she wished she would move so she could be Will's wife.

HA HA... I love my life!!!!!

No More Waiting!!!

Well that's not totally true. Now I am waiting for Alexa to get home (she went to utah for one one, aka 11, day) and for all of my appliances to get here. I had to buy all new appliances and they were back ordered 3 weeks so I am waiting. Should be soon! I keep promising pictures. KT has better pictures on her camera, but here is what I have so far. It is a work in progress. These pictures are from a week or so ago. I will post more when it is all done.

Still Waiting...

We are still waiting for our house to close. I am being told it should be this week, but we are having lots of fun while we are waiting.

Playing in the sprinklers.

Making homemade pizza.

Jumping on the trampoline.

Playing in the back yard.

And lots of swimming!!!

Give me an A!

A L E X A

This was Alexa's idea to have my mom take pictures of her making the letters of her name.

Time is flying!!!!

I was driving home the other day and looked down and saw my miles on my car, 111111. For some reason this stressed me out. I didn't know if I should pull over or take a picture of it. I know this sounds stupid, but it was one of those moments where I realized that time is flying by, I am never going to get it back, and I wish there was someone going through it with me. I know I am whining about being single, but I can do that every once in a while if I want to.
Alexa is growing up so fast. We went shopping yesterday with my sister and a friend from work and she was trying so hard to be one of the big girls. We were looking at furniture (which I haven't blogged about it yet, but I bought a house. It hasn't all closed yet, but when it does I will put up some pictures.) and Alexa kept saying "I totally like this one," or "This one is so freakin cute."

When we were leaving to go home, my friend asked if we wanted to go to another store. I said, "I'm down." And then Alexa spouts back with "Well I'm up." After we cracked up at her, I think she was a little embarrassed and said, "I mean I am down like my mom."

We are having such a good time together now that I am off for the summer and we get to spend all day together. She is starting to read and loving books. Loves taking pictures of peoples feet. Loves using speed dial to call me from my mom's phone or text from my sister's I phone. Her newest tricks are being able to bounce on her bum on the trampoline and then bounce back to her feet, swinging all by herself, and snapping. She has been practicing at all of them for months and finally can do all three. I am so blessed to have her around, but I wish she would stop growing so fast.

Spring Cleaning

A friend of mine from work, who I have been talking to a lot about the church lately just got baptized. I "got" to speak at the baptism. It has been a great opportunity to get to sit through the discussions and to feel the spirit. It is such a testimony builder to see others so excited about the gospel. Here is a group of teachers that I teach with who were all at the baptism.

We had a garage sale on Saturday. It was a lot of fun. We only made about $85, but it was all on things like clothes and toys. No big ticket items. Alexa's cousins came and helped sell Lemonade. It was a blast!

A Little Late!

but HAPPY EASTER!!!
We went up to Zion National Park for the weekend with my cousin and her family and my parents. We had so much fun and it was beautiful up there.
