Family Night

We went out for ice cream to our favorite place, Sub zero! They have a Wii in the back along with a pool, table,Foosball table and music. The Kids Love it there and we love it because it is so affordable! So We load up drive over and Guess what? They have closed their doors,no longer here, another small business down the drain. Man i was frustrated and the kids were bummed, so we went to our next favorite place, Cold stone! Yummy!!                    

Jamen had Cotton candy ice cream with Gummy bears and Kit Kat ( That does not sound good)
Emmit had Cotton candy with bubble gum and reices pieces (sounds equally gross)
Me and Dylan had Cheesecake ice cream with raspberry's and choc syrup Yummy
Justin had Oreo filling ice cream with kit kat and snickers.(that is rich I got sweeted out after one bite)
So much fun I love my family and glad we were able to go do this even if our favorite place was closed!                  

Over The Break




My sweetest Neighbor

 

 I had so much fun with the family over the break! We relaxed, had a big sledding party, ate way to much food, had a sleep over at my mother in laws house :) played the wii (I hold the record for archery) My husband tried to beat me,but with no success!We had everyone over for the new year,and we stayed up sooooo late soooo many nights. A Highlight of my break was with my neighbor.We had a lovely dinner with Her,my sweet Ursula a woman from Germany.My boys and I just love her so much! Well then a few days later she told me she had something for me. I went to her house and she had 4 big bags full of all her pigs she has collected over the years and wanted me to have them.(I have collected pigs since i was a child)It was so special too me and i am so grateful to have such a wonderful woman in my life.

A New Year A New Chapter




Hanna and Finley at the Sledding Party



 I Know all the changes that I have made Have been through the help of my Heavenly Father. Some days I feel so undeserving, but I have certainty felt the Healing powers take place in my heart and as I follow His teachings. What a Blessing that in itself is! To have felt His love, To be a part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and to be made whole again,  I have been given so much. I look forward to this New year . Cheers!! To the New Year

New Year

 Another year has flown right on bye, my kids are a year older, new challenges, different blessings, new paint, an extra 8 lbs :) ect. ect. ect. . I find myself thinking about all the goals I want to write down and start tackling, and  naturally my mind then turns to all the goals i made last year and never did complete. Then i just feel inadequate and like i cant and wont achieve these new resolutions.

   So after a little battle,some prayer and some positive self talk. I realized what i must do and what i am going to do. I will stand up and have the strength and determination to work towards these goals. I will not let anything stand in my way. I will and can achieve my goals. I will not let the insecurities and my lack of good self esteem get me down. I will Be more. I will try harder. I will love myself. This year I will succeed.I will be the Woman i always said someday i want to be. :)

  

Dates with My little Men

So every other month I take my boys on individual dates of there choosing! We have so much fun and each time we play a game called Twenty questions, and get to know eachother better and build memories together. I really think it has helped me bond and enjoy each one of there very differant personalities.


Dylan's Date: We hung out at the house, played ball and learned new words. I love spending time with my boys.

Emmit's Date: Me and emmit decided to go see Ice age #3 It was such a good show we laughed and had so much fun.

Jamen's date: He picked to go to great wall, a family favorite chinese resteraunt. We had so much food our belly's just about burst.

The week after this date i went on a date with my husband to see New moon and do dinner . I got dolled up and my son was so upset, i asked him why he was mad and bless his heart He told me "Mom when you went on our dates you looked wretched and then you got pretty for dad." Needless to say but i think our next group on individual dates i will take a little more effort. Lol

Supercross Salt Lake City Utah

So it is my twenty sixth birthday and i decided to take the reins on the celebration and buy supercross tickets for my big day! It was such a good decision, Supercross is now my favorite sport to watch, words cannot describe the amount of thrill and awsomeness(that might not be a webster word)that goes on watching a race! Fabulous Time!! We arrived early to go to the pits,check out all the bikes and riders. We saw so many cool things and famous riders and the coolest of all I got my picture taken with Andy Bell from the show NitroCircus on mtv. They do some amazing stunts, tricks whatever ya want to call um! Any way now i am like practically famous lol! The boys got his autograph and a poster. It was a good way to start off the night!

This is the track, we had fabulous seats and it was a rush!

We went with my sister Alison, Brian and Benson. They go every year and are major fans. We stayed at there house and had such a good time. I enjoyed spending time with their family.

Me Justy and the boys. The whole time the boys were giggling so loud and just screaming. Watching there excitment and joy was just as enjoyable as the races .

It ended up raining,snowing freezing us at the very end, but we came prepared with ponchos and remained glued to the seats. Number 14 won Kevin Windahm It was intense!!
Great Birthday, Let the good times roll!!!

Dylan

Dylan Kay Robertson
He was born July 18th 2008 He just turned 6 mths. old
Dylan has been such a blessing in our lives, he is the most happy baby you will ever meet. He has was the little piece that brought us together. These past six months have been so much fun getting to know Dylan and watching him grow. He is rolling over and sitting up, he wants to crawl but just lays on his belly and scratches the ground while wiggling his legs. (He gets pretty upset when he doesn't move.) As you can see he sucks his thumb, I find it to be the cutest thing ever. He is a big boy,with such big features. As of today he weighs 18 and a half pds. We just love him so much, him and the boys share such a great love for each other. Look at the kid how can you not love the heck out of him.

We went to Soda Springs to visit my amazing,talented sister Rebecca and her family. We had a blast, we left Friday night late arrived around 11:30 stayed up until 1;30,visiting. The next day we woke up were treated with a delicious breakfast, Bacon, eggs, biscuits & honey butter , cinnamon ripple muffins (can we just say divine?)

Then we went to a winter festival extravaganza fishing derby. It was so awesome! We fished for an hour and a half, and caught five massive fish. (The smallest was Justin's . . . heehee) It wasn't really small, though, it was between 3 and 4 pounds. Truman caught the biggest--over 6 pounds. The kids had so much fun--it was a fishing trip people dream of!!!

Next we went to a free lunch for kids and they handed out prizes to the kids. We ran over and saw the geyser explode. The kids got along so well, and it was very enjoyable to see my sister and visit. Rebecca, Thank you so much for your hospitality and we will come see you again soon!

Getting Ready for Baby #3.....

My two sisters that live here, ( Hanna and katie) surprised me with a baby shower. I was so excited because I haven't had a baby for five years and have nothing that has to do with a baby left from my other boys! THANKS TO EVERY ONE FOR MAKING IT A SPECIAL DAY! I am even more excited for our new little boy to get here.

Invitations to my baby shower!
Little baby onesies..

Opening all of my fabulous gifts! Thanks everyone!

The ULTIMATE GIFT!!!!! A tower of every size of
diapers and wipes to top it off.

Baby Boy punch! One package of Cool Aid made as directed, One can of Lemon Lime frozen juice, two liters of 7up. Don't forget ice cubes with babies frozen inside! My aunt Sharla gave my sister this recipe and it is heavenly.

When the ice cubes melted it looked like drowning babies...
slightly MORBID!

The food theme was all things tiny. It consisted of tiny sandwiches, bite size fruit and veggies, and tiny blue frosted and sprinkled cookies.

This diaper wreath was hanging on the front door to
welcome everyone to the Shower! You can get the instructions here! My sister Hanna used card board instead of foam. It was cheaper and just as cute. Just use a bowl to trace the outline of a wreath and cut, then use the same instructions on the link.

Wooohh!!

Can we say Huge!!! Here I am in all my pregnant glory,Truly not the most flattering picture! They say cameras add ten pds. to ya so I'm stickin with that! I am schedualed to have the baby Wednesday July 30th @ 7:30 am via c-section. So mark your calendars. We have decided to call our baby boy ,
Dylan Kay Robertson, We are so excited and a little nervous, Hopefully it will all come back to me.

Camping in Kelly Canyon

We had a blast!! We went memorial weekend 4 days of bliss, It was right by the river so we fished until we ran out of tackle.Jamen caught a 16 inch brown and 3 other fish. Emmit caught a 14 inch rainbow trout and 4 others ! Justin taught the kids how to cast and bait their hooks so it was awsome to see them do it all by themselves!!

Justin,Jamen,Emmit and their cousin Layne!!

He was trying to pose with his fish, and it kissed him right as I
took the picture!! I laughed so hard I bout' wet myself.

Justin giving the kids their first, very important lesson on gutting their own fish!
I think the kids really enjoyed themselves, I learned how to fillet fish and made everyone fish for breakfast.

My best friends

Emmit and his friends

My son has entered into a new make believe land. these are his best friends he talks for them, they eat with him. They spill his milk and they made him rip up his books. It is so cute to watch him talk his animals, and when he has the chance to play with real kids, he asks them"Do you want to play animals." hilarious

Jamen's lost a tooth

JAMEN'S LOST HIS FIRST TOOTH!

He was so excited and I was so very sad. I feel like my children are growing up too fast. He has lost 3 teeth since this picture and two of his adult teeth have come in. O' the beginning of the not so cute, huge teeth stage.
