How my brother Trevor broke his legs.

This is Grant's post: You can see Trevor didn't break his legs... but it looks bad. I had to put this on Natalie's blog because it deserves at least 6 views and my blog only has one person watching it...Natalie!

Logan's Blessing

Yesterday was Logan's blessing. Logan's Uncle Jarell gave him his blessing and it was beautiful and meant so much to us. Then everyone came to our house for some lunch. We ate "garbage", an awesome idea given to me by my sister, Shelby. You put some Fritos or Doritos in a ziploc along with taco meat, chili, cheese, sour cream, lettuce and anything else you like then you crunch it all up and eat it out of the bag! It was a good time when the house started clearing out and I looked in to find NO DISHES.


Here's Logan in the morning after his bath. He was relaxing until it was time to get in his outfit
This is Drake helping Grant with some last minute cleaning before the party

All dressed up and sooo handsome


Immediately after church trying to strip out of his church clothes... Hm wonder where he gets that from... Honestly when we got home from church, within minutes Grant was in jeans and Drake and Logan were crying until they were in comfy clothes!

We love Logan so much and are so happy he got sent to our family. Happy blessing day baby!!










And the Winner Is...

KINDER is the winner of my drawing for a free lash tint! Yay Kin :)

Who needs a Roomba?

Here's Drake Vacuuming up his mess.

I LOVE My Hubby


Okay I HAVE to make a post for Grant real quick. He is an amazing man. I feel like I never say enough how much I appreciate him. He works so hard for our family and he is such a provider. And he is such a fun dad to Drake and Logan. On top of everything he is really sweet. Sometimes I complain that he isn't romantic and doesn't say sweet, mushy things. Then I remember that's not at all how he shows he loves me or anyone. He shows it by DOING. He fixes things, hangs stuff, works hard at his job, does overtime, etc. And I have been feeling so spoiled lately. For my birthday last month Grant got me a Canon Rebel, I've been wanting that camera for a long time. It was so much more than I expected. So I was so SHOCKED when he told me he went shopping on Black Friday and bought me a Cricut machine. I can see him fighting off all the women to get his hands on one! I'm so excited about it!! Thanks for all you do, you big sexy man!! I LOVE YOU LOVE YOU LOVE YOU

Thanksgiving Weekend

This has been the busiest weekend ever! I'm completely exhausted but had soo much fun. Grant had to work on Thanksgiving so I decided to go to Idaho and have Thanksgiving at my Grandma's with my family. My grandma was so thrilled to see the boys. We had an amazing dinner and it was so fun to spend time together. My only complaint was that my grandma's house has lots of little knick knacks and keepsakes... all within Drake's reach! So it was so tiring following him around and making sure he didn't break anything.

Then on Friday we hung around the house until my dad got off work and then he had us all come down for a train ride and he taught me and Shel to work the controls and we actually got to drive the train, it was really exciting. I was so nervous I would crash into another train that was parked on the track. And then my dad let Drake push the horn and he went crazy pushing that button, it was so funny. After the train ride we went to the Thanksgiving Parade. We were all freezing and wouldn't have watched as much as we did but Drake LOVED it so we stayed almost until the end. After the parade we went to dinner and got warmed up. After all of that it would have been fun to go right to bed but we hit the road and drove back home. We had to be home by Saturday because all of the kids were getting together to do some painting at my mom's house. We wanted to suprise her for a Christmas present and my dad was in on it and keeping her up in Idaho so that we could work. So Saturday we painted into the night. I left at 1am but everyone else stayed up until 4. I would have pulled an all-nighter if not for the babies! It was lots of work but honestly we haven't hung out all together for such a long time and it was so fun. We were all teasing eachother and kept getting hyper from cokes and dr pepper then we would have a crash, then more hyperness. It was so fun to see her face when she got home on Sunday night. We love her so much and she deserved it! I hope everyone had a fun Thanksgiving! (sorry for the looon post)
