Bunk Beds

We have been looking at bunk beds for a little while now because Jordan will lose her bed when we move, it is Jon's sisters. So we found a great deal on Craigs list this week and Jon took the girls shopping to get sheets. Now we just need to make quilts!

I Be Nice/ You're Frustrating Me

"I be nice, I be nice" Jayci says is a sad voice whenever we put her to bed lately. It is heartbreaking. We try to tell her she is a nice girl, but she still has to go to bed. Nevertheless we just hear her whining, "I be nice."
Jordan on the other hand wanted me to get something for her and I told her she could get it. "You're, You're frustrating me," was her reply.

10 years later....

So ten years ago today Jon and I started dating. He took me bowling and out to Pizza Hut. Then 3 years to the day after that I lost him, so to say. He boarded a plane and flew to Brazil to serve a mission for 2 years. I lost my boyfriend and best friend all in the same day. Then 2 years later, 5 years ago today He got on his knee and asked me to be his wife. So this day is obviously a special one to us. We started dating, he went on his mission, and he asked me to marry him. Not to mention it is also Pioneer Day!
Jon is amazing. He has been my best friend, my second half for 10 years now. He has seen me at my worst and best, and knows me better than I know myself. I am so grateful to have him by my side daily. He is a wonderful husband and father!
Here is a picture of us when we were 16 before our first dance.

3 Months!

Jarom is 3 months already! I figured I should post some new pictures of him since it has been a while. He loves to play with his feet and hands now. He loves to laugh also! His eyes are really blue now too!

Non Camping Camping Trip

So we love to go camping. We were so excited to go this last weekend. Jon doesn't get out of the clinic until 1 pm on Saturday so we were going to go Saturday and Sunday night. So I spent all week getting all the food planned out and getting everything ready and figured out, remember we have 3 little kids! So anyway Jon got home and I had the van all loaded we head out to Oxbow Park were we love to camp and guess what, a lovely sign that says campgrounds full. Stinky! We thought that could happen but thought we would be ok by the way they don't take reservations. So we drove around a couple hours trying to find another campsite, no luck ALL FULL! So now we have our car loaded Jordan so excited to go camping and no place to go. We considered camping at home but Jon would sleep in his bed if we were home. So we did what we knew would make Jordan happy. We went home, dumped all our camping stuff in the front room grabbed some good clothes, and went to Aunt Jan's and Uncle Les's in Springfield. We all had a great time, but I am still depressed that camping didn't happen and now we will have to wait until next summer!

Cousins

Here is Janine's parents with all their grandkids. Unfortunately it is hard to get that many kids to sit sill, so there isn't one picture that is good of everyone!

Cute Hat!

Papa Jim got the grandkids Disneyland shirts. Jayci found a sweet hat to go with it and Grandma Jan's house.

Jarom's Blessing

We had Jarom's baby blessing while we were home. All of our family was there on both sides! Thanks everyone for making the trip!
