The Last week before school... the best ever!

This was the last week before school starts again for the semester. And by far, this week has been the best week of the summer, what a great week to end a fantastic summer!
Monday: I had the wonderful opportunity to make Kelsey's bridal shower invitations, they all turned out so cute! Even though my hand started cramping up, I still had lots of fun being creative and making them. I went to family home evening with my ward and had lots of fun playing volleyball with a four square ball! I had a really fun time at Zumba doing our old routines and a killer leg and arm workout.
Tuesday: I worked at the salon for six hours then I worked at Carter's for five, wow what a day, by the end of the night I was tuckered out and popped in a movie and fell asleep watching it.
Wednesday: I went through a training program for Carter's, even though I have been working there since April, it was really fun though!! I went to Zumba that night and had fun with Cierra at it!
Thursday: I went to the morning Zumba class, and even though it was small it was a great one! I played a little bit and then I went to work while my family started the family reunion. After work, I went to my friends' band performance, ha ha after getting lost, and seeing my first hardcore band, I had quite the night, or so I thought. After the concert, we went to Wal-mart and did some shopping and then we met everyone at Village Inn for a very late night of breakfast foods. It was super fun and I laughed really hard.
Friday: Today! Wow today was really fun! My YSA ward went boating at Deer Creek Reservoir. I made new friends and there never was a dull moment. Card games, water games, volleyball (I spiked the ball oh yeah), boating, yummy food, great laughter, massage train, a little "Cum By Ya" and guitar playing, riding home in the bishop's truck, and then getting stuck in traffic at 11 pm coming home.





Saturday: I went up early to the Kevern Family reunion with my sister Lindsey. It was beautiful up there! We arrived just in time for breakfast, one of my favorites... Mountain man! I was so happy to visit with my family, catch up on things and just have fun up in the mountains. My family is the best and there is never a dull moment, there is always something going on. A year ago, my sweet cousin was taken from this world, and today would have been her birthday. As a family we all wrote messages on pices of paper and blew up pink balloons. While listening to sweet Kya sing a song that her dad recored we sent our balloons up to the air, sending her messages in Heaven. I thought I wasn't going to cry, but I did, it was very emotional for all who were there.  It was only a year ago when we were up at the family reunion that we heard the news about the horrible car accident. I know without a doubt, that this sweet, innocent little girl, is up in heaven watching over her mommy, daddy, and little brothers. I am grateful for my knowledge that one day I will be able to get to see her again. WE LOVE YOU KYA!   After that we made these sweet shirts, we tie-dyed with sharpies. Thanks to my lil sis Steph, we all figured out how to do it! There were some pretty sweet shirts, everyone is so creative and each shirt was different.

Potty Training and tips

I know most of you won't care about this post, but I know my future self will be grateful for it. Potty training is so tricky and it really tested my patience. I know everyone experiences it differently and each kid is different. I did a bunch of research on tricks and tips. I didn't just stick to one, I tried a few different ones and even combined some. Let's start from the beginning. Spencer and I wanted to have Evie potty trained before our new little one arrives. I can't even begin to tell you how many people told me I should wait until the new baby came. A good chunk of these same people told me Evie was too young (she is 22 months) and it wasn't worth my time to even try. Here's the thing; I kind of get why people told me these things, but it really made me doubt my abilities to teach Evie a hard task. Let's all be kind and not mom shame those who try things differently and earlier than others. I am with her all day, every day and paid attention to a...

Help me raise money for a cause (Part 1)

As many of you know, I have Type 1 Diabetes for 10 years in August 2013. For those of you who don't know, I would like to share my story (in summary). At the end of the school year while in the 5th grade I started to lose my vision. Things started to change quickly inside of my body. I was never feeling fully energized and I was constantly feeling like I had to go to the bathroom and drink lots of water. I started to lose weight and the color in my cheeks started to disappear. The first two weeks in the 6th grade I weighed a scarce 73 pounds. My eyes were sunk in and my cheek bones were poking out. My mom took me to the doctors. After a quick finger prick, they found out that my blood sugar was 831mg/dl. (Normal target range is 80-120 mg/dl) That was a very dangerous number! I was then told I had to be taken directly to Primary's; I couldn't even go home to get things. Both my mom and I were in a mix of emotions. Not long after being admitted to the hospital, I was given th...

One Year Down, Forever to Go!

Happy Anniversary Love! I can't believe it has been a whole year since we were married. I have looked back on who we were when we got married and who we have become and I love it. October 9, 2014 will always be my favorite day (and yes I know I will probably say that when I have children but...), because it was a start of a new adventure. It was a start of a new life and pathway in which I will always have my one and only by my side. Marriage. Wow, where do I even start? To be completely honest, this year has been such a blessing of continual learning, good and the bad arguments, and even happy and sad tears. No one ever told me about all of the emotions that marriage brings. They really should offer a class for this. I have loved my husband since the first time he told me he loved me. Let's go down memory lane shall we? We were driving home from one of our date nights and Spencer was being nervously quiet. He would not let go of my hand and he would not let a word slip out. H...
