Our Favorite Lil' Cousin!


Last week while we anxiously awaited the arrival of grandma nut, we swung over and spent some time with Tessa!! The boys get SO excited to see her that we have to kinda talk em' down a little before they run into the house and break her!!!
She's a good sport though .... she barely ever even lets outa whimper ... I think she already loves her Big, Protective Cousins. :-)

Happy April Fools Day!!


This is what I woke up to this morning!!! My dear friend Nonie came up all the way from St. George last night to pull this fun April Fools joke on me!!!! Grrrrr!!! As you can see my little girls name is a combination of my mom's and her names, because this is both their favorite day of the year!!! Each year I ignore them both, but it's tough to ignore this!!

What's Grosser than Gross???







Our little Hutcher has been having some trouble hearing lately, at this 2nd visit to the Dr. we figured out why ...... The nurse took this HUGE syringe and squirted warm water in his ears and the next thing you know it's like a caterpillar is taking a log ride out his ear!!! Gross!!! But way cool too!! FYI it was really just a whole lotta wax in each ear.

If I had it to do all over ......


has it been ten years
Since we said "i do"
I've always heard marriage
made one seem like two
But you're looking better
than you did back then
You still make
this old heart give in

And if i had it to do all over
I'd do it all over again
If tomorrow
I found one more chance to begin
I'd love you
all over again

That seemed like forever
to a young man's heart
Now the days seem much shorter
The longer we love
And the memories
just keep adding up

If tomorrow i found one more chance to begin
I'd love you all over again

Carter and I celebrated our 10th anniversary this year and now I just wanted to close this post celebrating Carter's 32nd Birthday with a Quote from one of his favorite movies, Rocky Balboa. Carter, I love you and I know life hasn't always been the easiest, but I am so greatful we've been able to do it together!

The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain't you! You're better than that!
