Cute little Emma

Emma is getting so big, and she has such a cute little personality I thought I would share some of my favorite things about her. Emma loves her brother, her favorite song is My brother on Barney, she walks around singing "my boter, my boter, I luv my boter." Then she will look at me and say "Mommy, Cadin my boter. Emma love Cadin." She is really girly and loves girl stuff, but I don't think there's anything she loves more than wresling and playing swords and Transformers with Cayden.

Emma loves it when we tell her she is pretty, She will run her fingers over her hair and say "Emma so pretty."

This is her mad face. Whenever she doesn't get what she wants or she is frustrated about something she will make this face at us. It is so funny. Usually she will also squint her eyes. It is the funniest thing ever, she just wants us to know that she is not happy.


Emma's love love loves to dance. A couple times a week, after baths we will put on Enchanted soundtrack and have dance time with her and Cayden. Daddy will twirl her around the room, I swear she thinks she is in Heaven. She is beaming from ear to ear the whole time. These are a couple of pictures I took last night while we were dancing.


Whenever she feels really loving she will put her hands on our face and give us a big kiss.

Emma kissing Daddy, I think she gets really loving when we do dance time cause she loves it so much.


Oh the sense of wonderment, Do you remember the last time you were that sublimemly happy over somthing



I love when chuck looks just as happy as she does. He really loves his little girl.

More Free Advertising!!!

Ok so I know that I just wrote about my arrangements but I have just finished a couple of the ones that I will be taking to a couple of boutiques to show my work, I wanted to get peoples opinion. Please be honest, I would love to know what people think. Thanks everyone. This one is my favorite, I don't think I will sell it, I think I just want to keep it.



This is just a small one I made for my side table. I can't decide if I like it enough to take around to boutiques. I just made it with some leftover flowers that I had.

My new business

I have really enjoyed anything to do with decorating, and I really have a fun time with it. I have made a couple flower arrangements for my house and for my mom. Some of my friends have seen them and asked me to make one for them. Anyway, I think I am going to start selling them. I have the hook up with a couple boutiques that I might put my stuff in, but the best way to advertise is word of mouth, so if anyone needs one or knows someone who would like one please let me know. I do a lot of traditional stuff like this one, but I also have some really cool and different ideas that would be more eclectic, plus I'll give you a really good deal. I have also done wreaths for little girls rooms that are so cute. I was at Taipan the other day and an arrangement about this size was selling for like $250, not to mention how much they are in the frofro boutiques. I can do it for a lot cheaper and hopefully it will be just as beautiful. I really love to color that it adds to my house My latest arrangement

This is kind of a dark picture

Super hero party!!

Saturday morning Chuck let me sleep in and when I came down they all had capes on and they told me they were having a super hero party. Daddy had made them super hero breakfast (oatmeal) and they were watching Incredibles and doing their super hero tricks. He is so cute with the kids. They adore him and want all his attention when he is home. So mommy grabbed a cape and joined in the party.

Dino Museum!!!

My kids love the dinosaur museum. We got a pass and we went all winter. We went last week and took Laura and Davey with us. Dave had never been and he really enjoyed it. We always have fun when we are with them, we are so grateful that they live so close and that we get to see them so much.

Cayden growling like a dinosaur


Shhh your not suppost to get on the dinosaur.



Emma loved playing in the water


Cayden and Emma

Aren't they cute, Cayden would take her hand and lead her around.

A bunch of animals!

I guess they have free day at the Zoo every last Wednesday of the month in the winter so me and a couple of my friends went in February (yes that is how long it's been since I've updated my blog). We had so much fun. Cayden and Emma loved the animals. Emma really liked the monkeys and the bears, and Cayden loved the Elephant and Snakes. We are so lucky to have such great friends, we love to do things with them, and all the kids get along so well. Kristi and Paul, Aimee, Riley and Avery, Me and Emma and Cayden, and Andrea and Angelina

Becca came with us too, she is so good with my kids they just love her.


Since we were so close to HCI, chuck came down on his lunch break as my friends were leaving and went around with us for a little while.


I told Cayden that this snake could swollow him whole, he thought that was really cool.

Fishy Funeral


Our Beta fish finally killed the other fish. We had a fishy funeral. Cayden was very sad for about 3 minutes, then he had forgotten about the fish. Truth be told I can't wait till this last one dies so we can be done with this whole fish thing, he doesn't even care about them anymore.

Oh the prescious moments!!!

Something you have to know about Cayden is that he always wears his underwear backwards, so the opening is always in the back, no matter what I do he will not wear it the right way, he says that the tag itches his bum. All the underwear I can find has the tag sewn in so it's not like I can just rip it off. If anyone knows of childrens taggless underwear please let me know. Anyway on Sunday I told him he had to wear his underwear the right way, that I only wanted him to try it for one day and if he didn't like it I would let him wear it how he wanted. So we were in Stake Confrence on Sunday. Our bishop and a bunch of people from our ward were sitting close to us. All of a sudden I look over and Cayden had pulled his pants down and was itching his naked bum. I grabbed him and pulled up his pants and tried to tell him that he couldn't pull his pants down in church and he looked at me and yelled as loud as he could, "but mom, my bum is itching." I immediately got up to take him out and the whole way out he was yelling "my bum is itching, my bum is itching." We were sitting in the front so all the people on the stand and the speaker could hear him. I wanted to feel embaressed, but I couldn't stop laughing. I bet I looked like the worst mom, here I am walking out of the chapel laughing so hard while my son is yelling about his bum itching. I had to take him to the bathroom and let him itch his bum and turn his underwear around. I don't think I will make him wear it the right way again. I mean, who cares if he wears it backwards. Lets just hope he gets over this habit before he hits the teenage locker rooms.
