This is for my Husband

I just need to take a minute and say what a wonderful husband I have...
All I have to do is say something I want to do or get and he remembers and tries to make it happen. Like when I very casually mentioned that it would be fun to derby with my sister. And not a week later, he had bought me a derby car. And not only that he has spent every free minute this summer building it for me. Spending hours and hours and not getting home some nights until after midnight. And he spent his whole birthday working on my car. I can't even express how blessed I am to have a husband who is so in tune with my feelings an needs. He is such a good dad to my girls and I couldn't ask for a better husband. How many husbands actually help with laundry, and stay home 3 nights a week with the kids. He always makes sure that the girls and I are happy and taken care of.

So Cameron...Thanks so much for always thinking of me and taking good care of us. I love you so much and appreciate all you do!

Lexi's 1st Concert!

So... Lexi was invited to her first concert on the 4th. My 16 year old sister invited her to go with her to the Stadium of Fire and to see the Jonas Brothers! She was super excited and said " Mom, Meagan chose me instead of one of her friends." It really made her happy. When I was explaining to her what the Jo Bros would be doing she looked a little perplexed, she said " Now mom, it's the Jonas Brothers on TV right?" and said yes. Then she got this funny little look on her face and said " Well. are they Human?" I almost died laughing. Apparently because they are on TV they must be fake! It was quite hilarious. She had a complete ball, and actually has pretty much slept all day today because she didn't get home til 1:00 am.

Bachelorette Party, Transformers, and Derby Cars

Well...we haven't been doing much lately. Just hanging out at 7 Peaks, working on the Derby car, playing softball, and working. So I guess we have been doing a lot! Luckily coed softball is over, so I am done, but Cameron still plays on Mondays. The derby car is coming a long slowly, and is now parked on my brand new patio! And many of you know how OCD I am, and can probably guess that is totally driving me INSANE!!!

Jenn's bachelorette party was on Friday night. And I debated for days whether to go or not. I decided to go and it was so much fun!! I had a blast. I was the only one not drinking so I was the driver, but I didn't mind because we had so much fun at Harry O's dancing!

So Transformers was AWESOME!!! I can't even say how much I love Shia. He is so awesome. I never would've even watched Transformers because I am totally not into those kind of movies, but I did because he is in it, and now I love it! I seriously love him!

I am so excited for a lot of movies coming out soon....

~ Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
~ The Time Traveler's Wife
~ GI Joe ( only because Tatum Channing is in it) and of coarse
~ New Moon!!!

Redneck Woman!!

So as a lot of you have now heard...I am going to drive in the Heber derby! Some are a little concerned that I may have a slight panic attack. Seeing as how I have them when on leisurely Jeep rides with the Epps'! But I am way excited! This is my beautiful car. It is an 86 New Yorker. It is actually kinda cute, it even has a sun roof, which we will be covering in case I get flipped on my top! At this point we are stripping it. Apparently that means you have to take everything out. Everything really meaning everything...like seats, dash board, lights, windows, etc. It is actually kind of fun, I worked on cutting all the wires the other night. I am kind of debating what color to paint it. Obviously pink is totally the way I want to go...but then I might look to girly and people will go after me. So now I am thinking like bright purple with silver flames! You have to have the flames, or it wouldn't be redneck enough!




So this is the car from the front...those red things are the horns. Apparently that's what they look like underneath! Just looks like a souped up bike horn to me.




This is me in my "work on the derby car" clothes, working on the derby car.




And this is my face after working on the car. I was so proud to be able to show that I actually worked, and I actually got dirty.

Lexi turns 4!

Lexi turned four on June 1st! I absolutely can't believe I have a 4 year old! She shouldn't be this old, it is so crazy. We had cake and ice cream with all of the family the night before. And the next day I took her and Ellie to Build a Bear. It was so fun for them! After she got done opening all of her presents from the family, we brought out the Barbie Jeep we got her. It was all put together and ready to ride. Except...she didn't want anything to do with it! She had minor meltdown when everyone told her to get in and go for a ride. In fact...she told me to take it back to the store! After everyone left, she decided to take it for a spin, and now I can't get her out of it. Lexi's birthday is always the kickoff to our summer, and this year I think it's gonna be fun. We bought season passes to Seven Peaks, and we plan on spending a lot of time there! Another thing that's gonna happen this summer is that I am going to drive in the Derby! YAY! I am so excited and just a little scared, but Rachel and I are going to have a blast doing it. So if you didn't get tickets, you need to find some so you can come watch me!



This is her standing by the Jeep pretending she likes it!



These two had so much fun a Build a Bear! It was so cute. I was kind of thinking "What the Hell am I doing bring 2 four year old girls here." Because they wanted swim suits, pj's, and furniture for their bunnies! But it turned out to be way fun. I told them they could choose where to go to lunch, and they chose the pretzel place in the mall!


When we got home Ellie came to play. They put their bunnies in the back of the Jeep and rode around for hours! It was so cute!

Jackson Hole

On Memorial Day Weekend we took off and went to Jackson Hole for a little trip. We left on Sunday afternoon, avoiding most of the Holdiay Traffic. It took us forever to get there because it was raining like CRAZY! And at some points we couldn't even see the road so we had to go way slow! I was so excited when we entered Star Valley, so I could get some cheese curds. And wouldn't ya know, they were closed because is was sunday! On Monday, we ventured to Yellowstone. Lexi was fascinated by Old Faithful and couldn't quite figure out how the water shot out of the ground. It took us all day to make the big loop from the South Entrance to Mammoth Hot Springs and back. And if you know Lexi, a whole day in the car can be quite entertaining, considering that she never shut up the whole time! We saw 3 Black Bears, about a Million Buffalo, some Elk, and a Fox. It was a lot of fun!

We asked a nice man to take this picture of our little family.

Lexi when we first got to Old Faithful. We got there just in time because we only had to wait about 2 minutes for it to go off. And it wouldn't have gone off for 90 more minutes had we missed it.

This big guy was right off the road! We pulled up right next to it and I could've slapped it in the ass! But before I took the picture I made Cameron pull forward a little so it didn't attack me!

I've been a SLACKER!

Well lately we have been pretty busy and I have been slackin on the blogging! So from my last post about Round Robin...both of my teams did pretty crappy. But it was a good time.

We had Rachel's wedding on the 25th of April. It was so pretty and everything turned out so well. Lexi was one of the flower girls with Brentanna and Caden was the ring bearer. It was so cute! I am so happy for Brad and Rachel they are the cutest couple and are doing so good.

A couple of weeks ago we poured a patio on the side of our house. We had the girls put their hand prints and foot prints in it. Lexi was so excited to do her hands but when it came time to do the feet she had a complete meltdown! I have no idea why! But it was cute. I am excited the patio is finally done so we can BBQ and stuff. We bought a firepit and have already had one fire with the Grahams and made smores. I think that will be happening a lot this summer!

Quinn is 6 months old now and she is so cute! She finally rolled over from her back to her belly. She eats cereal now...and I think she is really chunky but apparently she is only in the 30th percentile for her weight. And she is in the 90th for her height! She is so much fun.

Lexi's birthday is in a couple of weeks. I can't believe she will be 4! It seems like she should still be Quinn's age! She was in a dance performance last week for the Torch Run for the Special Olympics. It was so funny because she kept on complaining of a belly ache as soon as we got there. And she looked like she was really in pain. I went over to check on her and she was lying in the pine cones! So I could tell she was really not feeling good. But she got on the stage and danced her little heart out and then she was just fine!

Cameron had to buy yet another toy! A motorcycle this time. I am telling you he has way too many hobbies!! Softball has now started and that's pretty much what we will be doing all summer. Cameron plays 2 days a week and I play 1. But it is so much fun! All in all we are doing really well and staying really busy!
