SPRING FLOWERS


A couple of weeks ago I asked Kevin if I could plant some pretty flowers, he said that would be very nice. So I planted some right by the front door. It was my first time planting any flowers on my own, with no mom to help me. ( Yes I am 25 and still need my mothers help when it comes to this) Anyway, I got all my weeds,sticks and anything that didn't belong in my flower bed out. I worked really hard. I got the soil and made my holes for the bulbs. When I was all done I looked at them and thought wow this is easy and fun. Kanyon and I have been watching and waiting for them to bloom. She helps me water them everyday and enjoys checking on them as well. So on Monday we woke up and they had bloomed. Very pretty Orange,Yellow, and White tulips. They look very nice. I am very proud of them. So the last few days all we have had is RAIN. I went out this morning and my flowers were so dirty from the pouring down rain we have had. I could not take any pictures of them just yet. So I got some other flowers that I just love and will be planting next year to they will bloom in the spring. We are doing some work to our house and we found a great spot for both of theses flowers.

School Is done!



Well Kevin is done with school for two weeks till summer starts. He is did really good on all his last min test, homework, labs and passed all his classes. We still have 3 more years of school to go!

Kevin does however really enjoy his classes and likes to go to school. I am glad he has a little time before his math class this summer. It is a Monday - Friday class from 8 to 10 and it's all math they take 12 weeks and put it into a 6 week class. He will be really busy for the first 6 weeks of summer, but after that then he is done till September. I am really proud of him for not giving up when times are hard, and he feels like he can't go on anymore. He is way better then me when it comes to school. We just need to get though the next few years of school. I think we can do it! Just can't give up now..

A BOY

So last week we went for my check up, everything looks great and baby is growing well and fast. Our Doctor asked us if we wanted to know the sex of the baby. We said yes very excited to know. (Kevin already knew) I had my thoughts, but yes we wanted to know. So he Say's it's a BOY. ( Kevin was right) I said are you sure. (I really already new) He said I am so sure it's a boy. So there you go. We will be having a little boy in September. We have thought of a few names, but nothing has been set in stone yet! We are doing names that start with K. If any ideas feel free to share.
So far this PREGNANCY has been easy, I am starting to get a little Belly again. I forgot how it feels to feel the baby move it is AWESOME. I do enjoy being pregnant. We are very blessed that everything is going well for us.
We are also very EXCITED that all the girls that are pregnant are having boys as well. So there will be three new grandson by the end of the year. A total of 4 boys and 6 girls. Very exciting.

Easter weekend

I never new EASTER was so much fun till this year. Kanyon loved it. She is 20 months and had a blast. Saturday we went to a egg and candy hunt at SMITHS store. she was not so sure on what to do at first, (plus there was tons of kids and that she didn't like) So we started our day with that. We then showed Kanyon how to color EASTER eggs. She liked that for about 10 min then was done. She liked the way they all looked when they were colored. (Kev and I did them all.)

Sunday was the best day we have had in a long time. The Easter BUNNY had came to see Kanyon. there was eggs all around the house and Kanyon loved to find them. It was like a race to her. I have never seen a child so excited about it before. She loved her new Jacket and Pj's and she thought the BUBBLES were so cool. she liked looking up at them. We then went to my FAMILIES house and had a great big dinner and another Easter egg hunt. By this time she was a pro at finding them. It got cold and we came in. Kanyon loves to be outside even in the rain or SNOW. She threw a fit coming inside. Then off to Kevin's Mom's house. She slept the whole time. It was sure nice to see Jane though. It had been a few months, so it was good to see her. Then we went to Kevin's DAD'S house. Did one more egg hunt for the grandparents and they loved it. They thought Kanyon was so cute running to get her eggs. They sure did fill her up with candy and then sent her on her way so we had to fight the wild one. She was out of control last night, running all over the house taking things down, jumping on her bed. BOY by bedtime I was glad to be going to sleep.
Kanyon is sure so much fun to have a round. I am so excited to watch her grow up and enjoy holiday's like me.

No Hair!

Kevin wanted a Buzz CUT
We messed up so now we have to fix it.
It's taking a long time to fix
Honey I think we have to shave the whole thing..
So we SHAVED the whole thing.
Good thing his head is not funny looking.
He likes it. SO i guess it's not that bad!
Plus it's just hair!!

Coloring Eggs

  • I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
  • More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.
  • Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.
  • Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.
  • That's enough, Nickelback.
  • I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
  • Is it just me, or are 80% of the people in the "people you may know" feature on Facebook people that I do know, but I deliberately choose not to be friends with?
  • Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft.
  • There is a great need for sarcasm font.
  • Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what was going on when I first saw it.
  • I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting 90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the only one who really, really gets it.
  • How are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
  • I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
  • I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.
  • The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to finish a text.
  • Was learning cursive really necessary?
  • Lol has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say".
  • I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
  • Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying.
  • My brother's Municipal League baseball team is named the Stepdads. Seeing as none of the guys on the team are actual stepdads, I inquired about the name. He explained, "Cuz we beat you, and you hate us." Classy, bro.
  • Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart", all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart.”
  • How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?
  • I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent an idiot from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers!
  • Every time I have to spell a word over the phone using 'as in' examples, I will undoubtedly draw a blank and sound like a complete idiot. Today I had to spell my boss's last name to an attorney and said "Yes that's G as in...(10 second lapse)..ummm...Goonies"
  • What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?
  • While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart.
  • MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
  • Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
  • I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the shower first and THEN turn on the water.
  • Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
  • I would like to officially coin the phrase 'catching the swine flu' to be used as a way to make fun of a friend for hooking up with an overweight woman. Example: "Dave caught the swine flu last night."
  • I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
  • Bad decisions make good stories.
  • Whenever I'm Facebook-stalking someone and I find out that their profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures? Don't mind if I do!
  • Is it just me or do high school girls get sluttier and sluttier every year?
  • If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring would probably just be completely invisible.
  • Why is it that during an icebreaker, when the whole room has to go around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem....
  • You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day.
  • Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't want to have to restart my collection.
  • There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
  • I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.
  • "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever.
  • I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?'
  • I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Dang it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?
  • I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
  • When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning something she hasn't already told me that I have learned from some light internet stalking.
  • I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.
  • Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising speed for pedophiles...
  • As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate cyclists.
  • Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
  • It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.
  • I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
  • Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what do to with it.
  • Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey- but I'd bet everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time...
  • My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day "Dad what would happen if you ran over a ninja?" How do I respond to that?
  • It really ticks me off when I want to read a story on CNN.com and the link takes me to a video instead of text.
  • I wonder if cops ever get ticked off at the fact that everyone they drive behind obeys the speed limit.
  • I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
  • The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimated that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fatty before dinner.

I took this from Larissa's blog who took it from another Blog, who took it from another blog, so no one really knows the author.
I thought it was so funny while reading it. We really do think that way sometimes.
