A New Beginning

Ryan and I are officially divorced now, for all of you who didn't know. We are all handling things in our own way, but everything seems to be getting better. It was a rough for the girls, but they are doing awesome! I just remind them that I love them and thier dad loves them, give them lots of cuddles and kisses and lots of love!

wow I post on facebook...guess I better do my blog

We recently went to Mexico for our 10 year anniversary... the last 10 years have just flown by...I love my family and this is by far the greatest life imaginable. I love you RY! We did all sorts of fun stuff in Mexico...I didn't post all the pictures... too many.
We shopped one night and got our picture taken with some Mayan dude...he got a little feely with me... We zip lined across the jungle, swam in an under ground cave, repelled of a structure, visited Tulum, which was so interesting and neat! We also went to the beach...AWWW the beach.
Iguana's everywhere! The resort had soo many good restaurants! It was soo amazing...

summertime

The kids have been basically swimming 24/7. They are learning how to hold their breath and getting a little daring at times.. I love summer. Soon Gracie will be in kindergarten...it's killing me how big the get so fast.

fish farm

We took the girls fishing and they caught some of the biggest ones! 13" and 15".

we had so much fun! my sister was done with both of her girls after 5 minutes, but we went to a pool with the biggest fish , and they were hard to catch.

The girls love going to the fish farm!

Catching up

OK blogger is being re-donkulous! I cannot post any pictures or the Christmas video I wanted on there. Our Christmas was so great. The girls got some fun stuff, especially the barbie house my dad made! He did a wonderful job and it is SO cute! Ryan got a wii game, and I got a DSI. I had a great birthday as well, we celebrated it on the fifth, but did have some family over Christmas night for cake and ice cream.

New years, we had my sister and brother in law over, we played games and had some snacks and actually stayed up till 12:30! ( we usually don't stay up).

Sayler is about to loose her 2 front teeth on top, she already lost the bottom 2 at the same time and now both top ones are so wiggly and anytime she bumps them they bleed. soo gross!

Gracie and Sayler Love their best friend Kennley. She lives in our cul-de-sac and she is sooo cute. I love it when they play, especially at kennley's house. the house is so quiet and both Ryan and I get bored, because we are used to them being here all the time.

So as soon as blogger gets with the program, I will post some pictures. :)

Gracie's first day of pre-school (- 2nd year)

Gracie loves coming to pre school. It is a little different this year, with the new teacher when Lori is gone (Mrs. Natalie). With Sayler in kindergarten, it has lifted a ton of stress, while I am working at the pre school. It also seems like Gracie is focusing a little more too. So far now that we have been in school for 2 weeks, it has gone really well. I hope it just gets better.

Sacrament Meeting

Today was a very special sacrament meeting. Bishop Gentry forgot to call the people to talk, so he got up and talked about his favorite hymn. We sang the first verse, and then he got up and said we will have testimonies until 5 after, but just share your favorite hymn, and we will sing what ever verse you want. It was really cool and I was glad that we did it. we sang so many hymns, one guy got up and he wanted us to sing "called to serve", but we all had to stand up. Some songs reminded me about my grandparents, like "The spirit of god", and "How great thou art". It brought a tear to my eyes, as they are no longer with us. My favorite one right now is "How firm a foundation". I love it. We will have the regular testimony meeting in 2 weeks, but this was different than any other and I want to remember it. :)
