Memorial Day!!!

For Memorial Day my family and I stuck with the tradition and headed to Malad for the day. It was a little weird this year cause it was just me, the boys, baxter and my parents.

 I enjoy going to decorate my Grandma and Grandpa Wards graves and spend time with my mom's family. When my Grandma Ward was alive we used to have a big BBQ outside and family would stop by to eat and visit. We don't do that anymore, but this year my mom's aunts and some of their families came up and wanted to decorate graves all together.

It was freezing outside so we all met up at subway and had lunch together.



All my mom's aunts and their families left, so we went around Malad to see if there was anythig new. We stopped at my uncle Steve and Cindy's house and visited with them along with my aunt Michelle and Brent and their family and my uncle Gary. It was a lot of fun to hang out with my cousins and to see my family. :)

                                           



Suprise visit...

Friday night I really didn't have anything planned, so I was just enjoying some tv. My brothers friends kept coming over to see if they could play. I thought that it was one of their friends knocking on the door for the hundreth time. Boy was I in for a suprise. :)

I opened the door and..............

Yep thats right, Kelsey was on my porch coming to visit me. It was so weird to see her at my house and I was so freakin excited. I was a little nervous cause I didn't know how she would be after being home 7 days from the mission. It was like she never left, we sat and visited and she is the same Kelsey as before. We went to our friends house to suprise them and sat and visited forever. It's weird to hear her speak Albanian and loved hearing all her funny stories. We ended up visited way late, so she spent the night at my house. It was so great to see her and I can't wait till she moves back up here so we can hang out all the time. I think the highlight of my night was when Kelsey says, "That's where babies come from? I knew I should of taken astronomy." Jordan was quick to say, " um you mean anatomy?" Oh man never a dull moment with Kels around :) 



The boys had given Kelsey a little welcome home gift, they had been holding on to till she got back.





Happy Birthday Buggie Boo!!!!!

Happy Birthday Bug!!!!! Today was my little sisters birthday and I can't believe she turned 20. I'm so glad that we have such a great relationship and that we are such close friends.There is never a dull moment when we are together. She always knows how to make me laugh and is always there for me when I need something. Love ya Alyse, thanks for being such a great sister and friend.

weekend full of laughs

This weekend has been hilarious...... I have not laughed that hard in quite sometime

Friday night- Natalie and I went to try out Savannah's BBQ grill (so good). After dinner we hung out at Nat's house for awhile then left to try and get David back but he never came home. We ended up staying and hanging out with the guys. Natalie has a HUGE space bubble Jeff, Jake and Jordan all wanted to try to get rid of that big bubble. I wish I had taken more picture of when Jordan was trying. The whole time I was laughing so hard.

I just love Natlalie's face here :)

Satruday night- Natalie had invited me to a game night. Her friend lives out in College Ward, on our way out to his house we ran into 2 shetland ponies in the middle of the road. They wouldn't move when we got close to them or when we honked the horn. At one point Natalie rolled down the window and said, "um excuse me could you move please?" Once I heard her say that I had to video tape her trying to get these horses off the road. After attempting a few times Natalie called Tim to get other ideas on how to move the ponies. Then I got out and moved them but they just moved back to the middle of the road. Nat kept trying to move them while I was taping her. I do have to apologize it's not the best taping job cause I couldn't figure out my zoom button and half the time I was laughing really hard.

This video Natalie is trying to move the ponies over to the side

Thanks Nat for the good laughs this past week :)



Kels is back!!!



I sort of forgot about my blog, but don't worry I am back!!! I have the best news EVER, okay well for me it is. One of my best friends, Kelsey just got home from her mission from Albania. I am so freakin excited that she is now back home.We became instant friends the first time we met and were roommates for years. You can never have a dull moment with her, and she always knows how to make you laugh. It has been weird not having her around for the last 18 months but I can't wait to see her and hang out like the good old time :)


Welcome Home Kelsey!!!!
