Eventful

So last night was an eventful night!

I went through so many emotions, I swear everything hits at once, Well to start out my youngest brother Jordan received his mission call yesterday so we all gathered together for the opening and... bum bum bum, he is going to the Georgia - Macon mission, he leaves Nov. 19, exciting and sadening all at the same time. Atleast we have three months to prepare before he leaves. I am so proud of him.

Then, I went from that news, to saying goodbye to my adorable brother-n-law Jake, He's moving to St. George to go to school at Dixie. Im really going to miss him, he brings lots of laughter & joy into our lives! Im looking forward to seeing him grow. And hey it also, gives us reason to get away and go visit! :)

So, then after the tears and the happiness that was behind the tears, I get news from a family friend that she had an ultrasound Monday, and is... HAVING TWINS! WOW! This will be her fourth and fifth baby! Her last one just barely turned 1, so three in a row! But it was exciting news!

Well, I will sum up by saying that I am so proud of my Brothers for making these BIG steps for there future! I love them!!

It's DONE

Yay, it's official our backyard is now complete. The sod is laid, the tree is planted, and now it's time to sit back and enjoy! We have to keep it watered like crazy for the next week and all so we just have to look from a distance and admire our hard work, but know that it has been SO WORTH IT! And I think we may be blessed, the weather is supposed to be a bit cooler this weekend so it won't take as much of a toll on the lawn so that it can root. Now, it's time to try and relax just a bit, before diving into the on going projects that come with owning a home :)

Closing the Weekend

Ok, If you haven't gone to see Mamma Mia, I strongly suggest it... I just absoluetly LOVED it!!! I have seen the musical which is just SO MUCH FUN, but the movie was good too... I makes me want to get up and dance and sing... "Dancing Queen". So anyways, that was our friday night adventure. Then saturday Dustin ended up having to work, so I got stuck doing yard work alone. But oh well, cause it's one step closer. I also went to the farmers market early in the morning, that was a neat experience, So may different people and their dogs, they have some of the best fruits and veggies, It was fun, and I will definately be going back. Then Me, my hubby, and our good friend Randy and Brit wen to dinner, to Iggi's, it was our first time really going there I thought it was rather tasty, then we came back to our place and watched 21, it was good. But now, it's sunday and we are preparing for another week of work. So hope you all have a good week. Loves!

Yard Work

This weekend we are hoping to plant a tree and a few bushes and flowers in our backyard and make sure that the rest is all level, cause we have been busting our butts, and the next step is... GRASS!! We can't wait to get our grass laid, It has gone from 4 feet tall weeds (from when we moved in) to ready for sod. Man, it's hard work but it's such a fun accomplishment. Brody will love it too! So, will I, Brody goes and lays out in the sun, in the dirt and brings it into my house, so I am constantly cleaning him, the floors, ect., man it's bad, so im hoping it will calm down a bit once the grass is in. Then I can concentrate on the next step....Bom Bom Bom

Becoming a Blogger....

Ok... I made my blog a while back, and posted a few times, and that was it... But now that EVERYONE else mainly blogs I'm now going to become a blogger myself, Keep everyone up on the times. Ha ha... I crack myself up sometimes.
