4 Years Ago Today

I married my sweet handsome husband 4 years ago today!!! He has been by my side through thick and thin. We have had such a great time together growing and learning how to raise a family. He always surprises me when I least expect it. Like last night/early morning he came in with a cute little photo printer, paper and ink so I can finish my scrapbooking at home :) I'm soooo excited about it! I've been wanting this for a long time. Alan Hates to be dressed up and clean shaven but he does it for me with out complaint (most of the time lol). He is always happy and full of energy! And I mean FULL of energy! He has always been willing to go with my ambitions and let me be creative so I can still be me to my full potential. He thinks I'm more beautiful when I think I look my ugliest. He loves our little boy with all his heart. I love to watch him be a daddy. He is so smart!!! He soaks up everything he learns. And he only has to be told once on how to do it. His knowledge of the scriptures is so impressive. If I ask him where a story is in the scripture he knows exactly where it is most of the time down to the right page. It blows my mind. If you give him one word that has to do with one of the 10 commandments he will tell you which one it is. I could go on and on about the things I love about Alan. Thank you Alan for the most amazing 4 years of my life. I LOVE YOU!!!!!

Mason's First Hair Cut

Well it's about freaking time huh?! He has needed a hair cut for soooo long. I mean I did cut his hair plenty of times before in the back so he wouldn't be rocking a curly mullet. His hair is stick straight on top but a cute baby curl in the back. I always saw babies with one lock of long hair longer compared to the rest of the hair and I always wondered why in the crap do they let that grow out!!! Its so wrong. Babies are so much cuter with out it! (of course just my opinion). So after many a day convincing myself that was not Mason (because I would try and hide it by parting his hair on the side) I decided I couldn't handle it any longer! Needless to say it was quite the challenge to keep him still. He is his daddies little boy and has to keep moving. But I bought a shaver that is made just for little boys and its super quiet and has a great shield on it so no nicks and cuts when he is running around. I cut about 2 inches off (ya like I said, It's about freaking time). And for a boy that seems like a lot to me! Here are some pics of that blessed event.....




Alan thought it would be great to just vacuum off the excess hair on his head and what fell oh his shoulders

the finished product :) sorry not the greatest picture but the best I got with him running around

Precious Moments

I walked into the living room and found little M had pushed his chair from his room to watch t.v. He grabbed himself a snack he didn't finish at lunch and his favorite stuffed animal, plopped down and got caught up into the Cat in the Hat. I couldn't help but grab the camera :) He looked sooo tired. Little M never stops moving so this was a moment I didnt want to pass up.

Weekend with the Girls

This last weekend I went with my cousin Jody and her kids to go see her sister Jana in NV. It was so fun to get away and have a little girl time. Mom's you know what I mean, we all need it every once in a while. I left Mason at home with his daddy so they had a lot of " Male Bonding". Us girls did some shopping and I found some sweet deals on a dress and shirt and best of all I broke down and bought a purse! This would be the 2nd purse I've ever bought, Yes I know that sounds lame but I'm cheap and could never get myself to pay the money on the ones I thought were cute enough to buy.



Isn't it cute!!!! Green is my favorite color and my cousins thought it was totally me, and I have to say it is! I look at it and it makes me grin :D
We also played 7 games of skippo, it is my favorit game. But I had a winning streek going on I think because I won 5 of those games. I felt so bad it almost became not fun to play with winning all the time. But they were good sports about it and always delt me in. On sunday after church Jody got out a craft that we all made for St. Patties Day.



I think it turned out pretty darn cute! Thanks Jody for bringing the stuff to make the craft and Jana for being so awesome and always opening your doors to us freezing Utah chillins. Love you both thanks for a great weekend!!!

I've been such a slacker!!! Here are all the things that have gone on in the last few months that I haven't posted until now. Get ready.......

Valentines Craft

This V-Day I wanted to come up with some thing a little more personal. Of course what a better way then to blogstock. I found this cute idea on Dating Diva's. And I think it turned out pretty cute! Mason and I went to Alan's work and heart attacked his office and left him that on the door. He said he hasn't been that suprised in a really long time. Wahoo, go us!! Inside each cup is a reason why I love him. Can't get more personal than that!

BFF's

Mason and Malia. These two are little partners in crime. Except its more like they do it to each other. They love to steal each others toys and blankets and sippy cups. They teach each other what they don't know yet. They are so cute when they play together and share. Its so funny because when they want to steal something they look at you first to make sure you aren't looking and if you are they do it really fast and try to take off running, well Mason more waddles and trips.
