The BIG 3-0

Well, it happened, I turned 30...and i'm totally fine with it. It wasn't scary at all. It feels good to be at this place in my life. I have a great family, a great husband and son. I really am enjoying my job at Alta and appraising as well. Jimmy was great. He really spoiled me and made me feel special. I am going to get cheesy right now so deal with it! I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful man as my hubby. He takes great care of me and Staley, is an incredibly hard worker and a very patient man. So...30 is good. And after a month of being on a detox with no sugar, carbs, soda, or dairy, I gladly welcomed the peanut butter shake and heavenly carmel apple that Jimmy got me.

Happy Birthday Candice!!!

This is my first attempt at trying to put a post on this blog, so I hope it works.
All I really want to do is say Happy Birthday to my smokin hot wife, you are the best!
In case you didn't know, Candice is the most caring, hard working person I know. Did I mention she is hot?
I hope you have a wonderful day and I'm sorry you had to work, just remember Disneyland is coming up.

Jump on It

My mom went to jump on it for the first time with us. Staley was excited to have his nana with us. He showed off a little bit. He doesn't love the trampolines as much as the slides.

Staley and Scamp

Staley's favorite little friend. My parent's dog, Scamp. Staley will get up in the morning and say, "mom, I want to go to nana and papas and see scamp." Or, "I want to go to Granma and Granpa and see snoop". (Jimmy's parents dog).

Dinosaur Museum

Heather and I took the kids to Thanksgiving point to the dinosaur museum last week. I had never been there before. It is really neat. They have lots of activities for the kids to do to learn about dinosaurs. I highly recommend it. The boys loved just running around and acting like cavemen while we were there. Mckell of course, was a perfect little angel. I love her flaming red hair! I hadn't seen her for awhile so I was shocked. It is darling on her.

Brigham and Staley...Just chillin'

Staley and Mckell kind of playing together.

Staley trying to play in the sand without getting his hand dirty. It is such a cute area. The kids can play with the dinosaurs in the sand.

Valentines Day!!

I love Valentines Day, it is one of my favorite holidays. We always do something together as a family. This year, we got heart shaped pizzas and did chocolate fondu. Staley wasn't as in to the fondu as much as I thought he would be, but he did enjoy the pizza and his diet coke. (I know, I know, I'm a horrible mom). Diet coke was his valentines present. Jimmy gave me some new shirts and I gave him some new shirts. We must have been on the same wavelength this year. Except mine are for work and his are for play.

Staley boy

Staley was so cute this weekend. The poor little guy has been sick with a chest cold. On Friday night we went to Jay and Amy's house. He played Thomas with Noah, and was the door nazi. We had a Ballroom Team social so the whole Alta Ballroom team was there as well. It was kind of a wild night. They get pretty rowdy outside of school. On Saturday and Sunday we stayed inside and were incredibly lazy. We wanted to keep bug in. We are trying to ween him off of The Polar Express so we introduced Transformers to him since he likes robots. He loves to listen to my ipod. He rocks out. I told Jimmy that we should get Staley his own and he got that "my wife is crazy" look on his face.
This week will be busy so maybe its good to have a relaxing weekend. We are getting ready for Valentines, so I will have more posts soon!
