8 Years and many more....

Tuesday August 18th was our 8 years Anniversary!

Shaun and I were talking about how different life is now compared to than...

3 Wonderful kids, that were VERY sick all day, but we did get a dinner date in.

A house that is a never ending mess of blocks, cars, toy Kitchens, and blankets.

and a love that is stronger than ever!

Love your Shaun!! (elepahnt shoes)

29.....

I turned 29 on Tuesday. It wasn't as bad as I thought it "may" be. It was a good day, Shaun took it off and watched the kids while I went out to Lunch with a very good friends, Thanks Melissa! When we got home Shaun took the older two shopping for their gifts to me, while I stayed home with Eli, he napped most of the time so it was quiet, best present for a mom in my oppinion! Than I had to go to the DMV for my license renewal, this is the worst picture yet...so I only did the 4 year insted of the 8.

That evening my family came over for pie and icecream, didn't want cake this year..it was a good day, thanks Babe for making it easier on me!

Tumor update

I went in on Monday for my monthly blood work up...the results came in today, and they are pretty good. When I had my last one done (June 30) my levels were at 186, and today is 26.1. BIG change, I will be on the same dose for this next month and go back in the first week of September for another blood draw. According to the nurse it could go up and change the dose, but the goal is to stay the same.

Hip, Hip, Hurray!!

We have started with all the school supplies, and we will be hitting the clothes and shoes next...Taylor is going back to school in a little less than 4 weeks. Last year I was VERY pregnant at this time and worried about letting my little girl go out in the world by her self (mind you the school is a block over from our house.) This year I am as excited as her. "SCHOOL!"

Mom and Dad's 31st

Today is my parents 31st anniversary!

A lot has happened in that time, a small re-cap

they have 5 children, and 6 grandkids

a family that loves them, and wishes many happy years

to come!

What a month....

This month has been a long, hard, busy one. It started off with the MRI and all the new pills I'm on. All at the same time Shaun had to work A LOT...he put 156 hours in for the last pay period. Which was hard on all of us, when he was home he was sleeping, and I was starting my new round of meds that make me sick. Things are better now, he's back to 7:30am to 6:00pm hours, and I can walk with out my stomache in my throat.

Taylor lost 2 teeth in one week, just in time to get ready for school, those are going to be some fun school pictures this year:)

Trevor says I am the worst mom in the world, and that he wants to go to his room, needless to say he gets sent there a lot so he now calls it his "rocket room" he plays space shuttles on his bed to entertain himself.

Opposite than Taylor, Eli got 2 new teeth this month, that now makes 7 all the way in and 2 more getting closer.

Happy 4th!!!

We had a fun 3rd and 4th. On the 3rd Rigby does fireworks at the lake, so we are able to have a good view from our back/side yard. My family came over to watch them with us, than on the 4th we went to their house for lunch, and later that evening met up in Menan for their show. We had a lot of fun, and it was nice to be able to get out of the house and enjoy the family. Here are a few pictures I took of the kids and the BBQ.
