Loving our 'lil' Valentines.....

.....from head to toe!!!

Happy Valentines Day!!!

One year older and wiser???

Just toss another candle on the cake... It seems like I add more candles to the cake and lose more brain cells, faster than gas prices go up...I had requested to nix the candle idea, but that ruins all the fun right?? And besides the heat that came from that cake kept are apartment about 2-3 degrees warmer, and the smoke didn't set the alarms off :0)!  I am struggling with the fact that this is my last year in my 20's! However they say 30 is the greatest time in life...whatever... Regardless it, was a great day, Dave took me out on a REAL date, the first one since we have moved!! We ate at the best Thai restaurant in the nation...for those of you coming to visit us we are going there!! I apologize to those who have previously partaken of my annual Hawaiian dream cake, and weren't here...it was really different and we missed you. We have a sweet little lady named Mary who lives across the hall, (yes I adopt one wherever we go) and she was our guest of honor. Chan was so excited to eat cake, that he ate too much and was a little on the sick side....and my sweet little miss Maddie made me one of her creations, which was my favorite present....she makes me smile...in fact they all do. The reality is, yes I am one year older but I have so so much to be thankful for! 

Super Bowl Fun!!!

GO STEELERS!! WHOOP!! WHOOP! For those who do not know... Dave has been a HUGEMONGOUS Steelers fan since he was a kid. At first I thought it to be a little obssesive, but now it actually is very entertaining! We missed having our super bowl party with our friends (yes you know who you are). But we are lucky to have a cousin of mine who lives about a hour and a half away. Our kids have so much fun with them, and they have...yes a house to run around in!! It was a great game..I really just love the commercials and the 4th quarter.. and of course watching how pumped up Dave gets with his terrible towel! It was a great game for those who saw it...especially the last couple of minutes from which I am still recovering. It took me a good hour to stop shaking because Dave gets so CRAZY!! However we currently have (thanks Tara) a very HAPPY home!  

 

The reasons why I love this guy.....

I decided that I blog so much about the kids that I 

should say a little about this extremely important 

cute hubby of mine...there are hundreds of obvious 

reasons why I am crazy about Dave...just a few..I love 

how he gets so excited about hunting, talk of hunting, 

wearing hunting apparel(camo) every chance he has, 

the simple fact that he sings every song a little wrong 

and a note or two off-key, how happy he is to see the 

kids, and even more, how I often feel like I have four 

instead of three. His super strong testimony and love of 

the gospel, his example, and always positive (the glass 

is always half-full) attitude,and the way he can 

come home from working and going to school for 

about 15 hours, and still flashes those cute-make-

you-weak-at-the-knees dimples at me. His amazing 

dedication to our family, and how hard he works 

for us. And most of all how out of all the girls in 

the world...he chose me to be his wife. I am truly 

blessed beyond words, and just love this guy too much!
