My Mini Schnauzers are almost ready








The first two pictures are of Big Boy... The next one is of Big Girl and the last is of Spunky... The kids named them... (how cute) They are sooo sweet and we just love them to death... They are going to be ready to go on August 30th... We will miss them but I just listed them on ksl and so I am sure they won't last long... This is my life besides Owen, kids and work-It is lots of work but they are worth it... So Sweet and I just love them...

Motherhood

I was sick all week starting from last Saturday all through the week until yesterday... Talk about the longest week ever... I was just dragging every day all day to get through work... I took the last two afternoons off in Wednesday and Thursday just to try to get a little extra rest... Wouldn't you know that with children around that didn't really ever happen... I am so glad to say that I am ready for the week ahead and am feeling great now... The boys are enjoying football... They practice every day of the week and have weekends off so they take it pretty seriously... Mitchell is trying to get the coach to let him be the kicker and punter also... He stayed after practice in Friday to show him what hes got... He is determined to be like his Dad... It's great that he looks up to him like he does... Saturday Mitchell and Noah were gone so I took Seth and Jiselle bowling... We had a really fun time just the three of us... The cheese fries didn't go as fast with out the other boys : )... Then we got some ice cream and went to the park... It was a full day of just fun... I just love my children-all of them... I can't even picture my life with out them... They may keep me busy but it's a good kind of busy... I love being a Mother and find it the most important calling in this life... I try each day to be the best Mom I can be... I do know that I have my flaws but I wouldn't be me with out them... Some times when I am at work I miss them so much... But I know that the Lord sent me here knowing that I would have to be a working Mother and he gives me the strength to do both jobs... He told me this would be my journey for what ever reason... I live each day just doing the best I can... For this I could never look down on any Mother that works out side the home... My calling in life may be different than others but I have learned that you just do what ever you need to do with a smile on your face and don't worry about what some may think or say... As I sit here and watch the kids play out side all of them happy... I know we are doing what's right and for that to me nothing else matters... I love you all...

UFC 87




Fight Night was awesome... GSP kicked butt once again... He is one of my favorites to watch... Defending his title against Jon Fitch... He won after 5 rounds of fighting... Jon Fitch would not give up no matter how hard the hit-Brock Lesnar was one of the biggest guys I have ever seen fight... I still can't believe how big he is... His muscles were as big as my head... Heath Herring didn't stand a chance in this fight... It was another night of some awesome fights... Love It

What a fun weekend





Owen and I went on a date with Linda and Chance on Friday night... Chili's always has good food but they always take so long with our order every single time... I told them they would give us a free desert because they took so long and wouldn't you know that's exactly what happened... When the manager came over to the table to apologize and offer us the free desert Chance couldn't help but laugh... Two hours later we were off to Home depot and back home... On Saturday I took all my kids school shopping and then we took the kids bowling and had a bbq at our house for Mitchell's Birthday Party... We got him a Nintendo DS and his expression when we gave it to him was a look of pure shock... He was very grateful he got just what he was wishing for... After Mitchell's party we all went out side to enjoy our yard and when I came in the house Shadee our female Mini Schnauzer was on top of the table with no cake to be found... She had eaten almost half a cake... It was like walking in and finding your child has done something so bad... She was covered from head to paw with cake... Cake was all over the table and floor... What a sight to be seen... One I almost couldn't believe... Ryker and Lily our other dogs just watched... It was sooo FUNNY... Today we went and had dinner with the Price family... We always have such a good time with great entertainment from our kids and we can't for get the dogs :) We had such a great weekend...HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG BOY-LOVE YOU MITCHELL... I am so grateful for all you do to help me out... You are the best big brother a mother could ever ask to have... You are the best example to Noah, Seth, and Jiselle... Keep it up... I am so proud of you and We all love you soooo much...
