Things I am Thankful for!

So considering that yesterday was Thanksgiving, I figured that I should tell everyone what I am thankful for.

I am so so thankful for a wonderful husband. He is truly my best friend and together we have been through so much. He is such a kind and caring person and he treats me like a Queen. Brandon is such an amazing father and he does everything he can to make sure that me and the kids are taken care of. I love him so much.

I am thankful for my beautiful boys. I love being a mom, and I would be lost without them. Kyler is my 4 year old and he is constantly making me laugh, he has such an awesome personality. And then there is Kaston, he is growing so fast and it seems like he learns something new everyday. Its so fun watching as he tries something new for the first time, and its especially fun when both Ky and Kaston are playing together. I am so so lucky to have my kids and I am thankful to be their mom.

I am also very thankful for my dad. He was such an amazing person and I learned so much from him. I miss him so so much. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. There are even days when I catch myself dialing his number just cuz I want to talk to him and hear his voice. I really wish he was here with me right now. I can't help but think that my kids are missing out on knowing such a great person. No matter what tho I will always be a daddy's girl, and I will never stop telling my kids all about him. I am very thankful for the time that I did have with my dad after all I am a better person because of him. Love you daddy.

I am thankful for my mom. She has also taught me a lot. I know that she had to give up a lot for us kids and I also know that she had to work really hard for everything that she had. My mom was raising kids and getting her degree at the same time. Now that I am trying to do the same I know just how difficult it was for her. She is a wonderful grandma. The grand kids always love to go over to grandmas house.

I am really thankful for my bro's and sister. We are so close and I love it. There isn't anything that we wouldn't do for each other. I love each one of them. We have been through a lot and I am glad that we have had each other to lean on.

I am also thankful for my friends. I have got really great friends and I am so lucky!

I have so so many things to be thankful for my list could go on forever. Most importantly tho I am thankful for my savior. I know that its because of him that I have so many great things in my life!

9 Months Already!

Its so crazy to think that Kaston is now 9 months old! It is truly amazing how fast time flies. He is growing so fast, and it makes me sad. Can't he stay a baby forever? Anyways he is getting into everything! He loves to stand up and he is trying so hard to walk. I think its only a matter of time before he masters walking and then I am really going to have a hard time keeping him out of things! LOL He loves to do patty cake and he also loves to dance. Kaston also loves his baths. Every time he hears the bath water running he hurries to the bathroom, and when he is in his bath he LOVES to just sit there and splash. Kaston also loves his big brother. Anytime Kaston sees Kyler he gets the biggest grin on his face, and then he hurries over to Kyler. Its great. I absolutely LOVE being a mom! ( I am going to post pictures soon )

Halloween!

We had so much fun this Halloween! My kids looked so cute in their costumes. Kyler decided that he was going to be the transformer Bumble Bee, and Kaston was a Dalmatian Puppy.
We got all dressed up and went to our ward trunk or treat. Kyler got a lot of candy and he had fun playing with all of the other kids. Afterwards we went to Brandon's brothers house, and then we just hung out with friends. We had lots of fun this year!

School Halloween Party!

Kyler had a Halloween Party at his precshool and he decided that he was going to dress up as a pirate. ( He mainly just wanted me to paint his face!) His teacher took them around her neighborhood trick or treating, and they sang Halloween songs to all of her neighbors. All of the parents came early and Kylers class sang their Halloween songs. It was really cute!

Pumpkins!

So we decided to carve pumpkins this year. We usually just let Kyler paint his pumpkins but this year we thought that he was old enough to carve a pumpkin. We invited my sister Tiffy, and her husband Kash over and we all had a blast carving our pumpkins. Kyler decided that he wanted his pumpkin to have a spider web with a spider, and he told Tiffy that she had to carve a silly face on hers. The pumpkins turned out really good and we had lots of fun carving them! Here are some pictures!

SoMe PiCs Of My BoYs!

I realized that I really haven't been putting to much effort into my blog and I decided to try just a little bit harder. I promise! Ok so here are some pictures of Ky and Kaston. (They aren't the best pictures because my camera isn't working so I have been using my phone!) Its been fun watching Kaston grow and seeing Kyler with him. Kyler is such an awesome big brother. He is always watching out for Kaston, and Kaston just loves to be around Ky. I love it. I hope that they will be best friends through out their whole life. Having boys is the best.







These boys are my life, and I consider myself very very lucky to be their mom!

I Hate Our Economy!

So as many of you already know our economy sucks! With each day it gets worse and worse. Its made everything slow down, because no one has the money to shop or build or anything for that matter. Well yesterday it really hit home. My husband builds custom cabinents for a living and he has done well at it, until now! Yesterday we found out that the company that he is working for, a company that has been in business for nearly 12 years, had basically ran out of money. Which means that he is currently out of work!!! So if any of you know of good jobs please let me know. We are willing to do anything right now!
