New President!

Well I am really not much of a political person but I think anyone and everyone was very interested in the election of our new president. I am not going to say how I voted, but wether my person won or didn't life goes on and lets hope it is a better one for America...(sounds kinda corny, but that is how I feel.) I found this quote while reading through MSN on the election:

"We know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime — two wars, a planet in peril, the worst financial crisis in a century," Obama said in his victory speech in Chicago's Grant Park. "There is new energy to harness and new jobs to be created, new schools to build and threats to meet and, for us to lead, alliances to repair."

Lets hope that the above statement is followed through with.

Also, here in no where Vernal, IT SNOWED. I love waking up to snow it really kicks my day off to being a good. Lets hope it stays that way!

Halloween

Finally Halloween is over...I am sorry but when your child is Avi's age it's not so fun. She was a grouch the whole night because she didn't get a full nap in. I was scared to let her run around at the trunk or treat for fear she would get lost, but all in all it was a pretty good night.

Note: look at all the kids screaming in the picture and yes Ronald McDonald is my pregnant sister, she is a goof!

Me and my ladybug!

The weekend

It's been awhile since I have posted it has been so crazy trying to get everything organized before winter hits. I have new projects to work on and a sewing room to get in order. My wonderful sister is letting me make her baby girl's bedding and curtains ya know that whole sha-bang. I am really excited because secretly when Trevor becomes a millionaire (in my dreams) I am going to quit my full time job and just sew, but until that happens I guess I have to fit in sewing when I can. Anyways back to the weekend. It was probably the most eventful weekend we have had in a long time Jess, Jhon and Rielee, Marlie, Brigham, Zoey and Slade came over and we barbecued some cheese burgers and played some Mario Cart on the WII (my new favorite game!), sorry not a lot of pics those children were hard to catch to take a photo.

Miss Avi

Lately I have just watched my little sweet, angel of a child go from this....

to a MONSTER!!! Honestly I can't tell you how many times she gets told NO! NO! NO! and shut that or get down from there! I am a pretty easy going person sometimes to easy if you were to ask Trevor, but this child tests me. but in the end I can't help but laugh at her because truly she is a crack up. In her way she is her dad because she is so impatient and demanding, but she is also bubbly and goofy. Her new thing is climbing on everything. My chairs to the table which then she ends up sprawled on the table....my coach, the bed, her little table, she tries to climb out of the crimb, she plays on my Elyptical like it's a jungle gym and now she has found I have a flat drawer that she can't sit in and start throwing stuff out of!!

In the Motherhood!

I ran into a funny little site that is called "In the Motherhood" and had to share with everyone. I am sure most of you have already heard of it because I admit we are a little behind the times on TV. Heck I don't even know most movies that are coming to the big screen because we don't have TV. I know, I know no TV!!!! Lately it has been really difficult I realize that I crave drama and reality TV, But in the end I still can't convince Trevor that we should get some satellite or cable. Well anyways back to In the Motherhood, check it out it is really fun and somewhat true to life of what some mothers have to deal with.

We are still alive!

Sorry I haven't posted forever, we have been so busy plus I broke my camera and Trevor won't share his so no pictures to share!! Anyways Avinlee is getting bigger then ever and has developed quit the personality of independence and attitude just like her dad!! Hopefully I can still the camera and actually post something interesting.......I almost forgot! My sister Autumn or Audy Pody is having a BABY GIRL!!!! I am so excited finally some one to use Avinlee's clothes! Congrats Sis. We love you.
