Aynsley

I watched Aynsley earlier this week, while her mom attended meetings at church and school. She brought over 29 new littlest pet shop toys that she got for her birthday. She wanted someone to play with her, but I wanted her to show me how to play pet shop. I never had these toys as a girl and really don't know what they do. They are kind of cute, but they remind me of a "Bratz' version of an animal or insect. Instead of playing she settled for watching Hannah Montana on Disney and knew every word of that show. My guess is that she watches Disney way to much, or they must play that episode every day. After the show was over she informed me that she was bored as she does often. We started reading a story, but she didn't want to read because it just happened to be a chapter book. I am just going to keep trying to show her how easy chapter books really are.

Florida Trip March '08

As I was listening to the news this evening and hearing what a mess Tropical Storm Faye was causing to Florida, I realized I never posted our Disney World trip pictures. Shane and I got drenched in a rain storm on our trip. Nathan assured me that it didn't rain like that all the time done there, but it did wonders for my hair the next day . We arrived at Epcot and within a half an hours time my hair was curly, and had to put my hair back in a hat(to bad I don't have pictures to prove of it). We loved Florida, hated the water and HATED the humidity. We just wish that Nathan and his family lived so much closer Florida is just to far away. Thanks for the memories Nathan and fam we had a tons of fun!!!!!

I think for the most part it has been hard to think of the trip, or even to post these pictures, because it was just a few short weeks after our trip that Shane and I lost our baby. I hope many of you understand how hard this loss was for Shane and I, as we had been awaiting a little one for quite some time. We have no new news to report on that subject and just hope and pray that it won't be long before we do. Please keep praying for us.

Breaking Dawn and Moab

I finally finished the new book by Stephanie Meyers 'Breaking Dawn'. I thought that it was a good story and it finished well. I went to a 'Breaking Dawn' party in Tooele with my good friend Summer from work. The party was at a small local book store and I was surprised to see how many crazed vampire lovers there really are out there. I really enjoyed the whole saga and can't wait to read more from Stephanie Meyers. I am soooooo glad that there are authors that care about their religion and values enough to bring it into their writing. Thank you Stephanie !!!!

On the Thursday prior to the Breaking Dawn release, Shane had to make a quick trip to South eastern Utah for work. The trip included stops in Price, Moab and Vernal. He enjoyed his time while on this trip and went to Arches National Park to take in some of the breath taking views down in the Moab area. It was a quick trip and he really would like to spend more time down in Moab checking out everything there is to see. Shane was disappointed that I couldn't get the time off of work, but I think we will plan a trip there in the near future.

Happy Birthday Nan

As you all know I had the luxury of having another birthday a few weeks ago. I turned 33 and can't say that I am loving it. I got heart attacked that morning from a few of my close friends. It was a nice surprise to see when Shane and I were leaving for work. Shane didn't know what to think at first and then he just started laughing at me (he does this almost everyday, and says that I really should be a blond).
We had a birthday party for me at my mom's house, where she fixed Lasagna for dinner. We all had an enjoyable time with cake and ice cream for dessert. I have to say the best thing about a summer birthday is ice cream. Nothing truly cools you off more than a bowl of ice cream.
YUM YUM!!!

Hello to all

Hi there!!! Shane and I are new to the blogging thing, and I really can't tell you why we even started one. I guess we thought it would be nice to share with you all the happenings of our lives.
Please share a comment or two, and we really hope that you get to know the two of us a little better.
