Terrible News!

About a couple of months ago we were told Steven's grandpa Bob was diagnosed with Cancer, he had a couple of surgeries to remove the cancer and then started on cemo, well the cemo just knocked him to the ground. He became very weak, wouldn't eat, at one point he couldn't get his cemo because he hadn't ate or drank anything for days so he was very Anemic and had to have a blood transfusion before he could get his cemo that week! Well I guess he just gave up his fight last night, we got a call this morning around two saying he returned home to heavenly father! May you Rest In Peace "BOB" We Love You Very Much! I know myself he is in a much better place, its just hard imagining life without a loved one.

Weight Loss

So over the last weekend at the Santa's Workshop, people who I haven't seen in a while came while I was there, I kept getting awww.... reactions to my weight loss, for me I didn't think I looked that bad I always have been a "Chubby" person, but after I had HadLiegh I lost a little bit of the weight was looking good well I decided instead of the pill I was going to do the IUD well bad Idea. After having the IUD in for about two weeks I jump up 15 or so pounds, talk about a blow, I kept having problems with the IUD not major but it would cause me to cramp really bad. I couldn't have it removed until Steven got fixed and it had been a couple of months just to make sure there wasn't a sleeper in there (LOL) anyway because we are done having kids. About June I had it removed, well I wasn't losing the weight I really felt water logged like the weight I had gained was water. My mom had started taking a diet pill the doctors prescribe she gave me one to see if I would even like taking it, and if I did I was going to go get on it, well the night she gave it to me the next day I woke up and lost 7 lbs now you can't tell me that wasn't water! Well I was in shock so the next month I was able to get in and see the doctor and he put me on the pill so I have been taking this diet pill for about 3 1/2 months now and I have lost a total of 38 lbs and feeling really good, anyway back to my whole point lol people kept saying to me "Oh my gosh I almost didn't recognize you, you have lost a lot of weight" I was like really is it that noticeable? I had no Idea I looked so big until I was skimming through my pictures and came across a picture of me at my heaviest (NOT PREGNANT) and was like holy cow what a difference no wonder I am getting those reactions. So here is a before and after photo so you can see what people are talking about.

Sooooo Cute!

I know I keep posting the same pictures but I am experimenting with this program and everything that I do I find it to be way cute and I like to share it with everyone!

Thanksgiving weekend

I have to say that we had a very good Thanksgiving this year, Wednesday we went to my Moms house and ate and then Thursday we went to Stevens Moms to eat, Steven went to work about 3:45 and I went up to my Grandma's in Tridell and sat there for awhile and visited with everybody there, then I went over to Vernal and spent the night with my mom so we could go shopping in the morning. Well My mom had this great idea that we were going to stay awake all night and shop the internet for the good deals, well every time we would go to put something in our cart it would be sold out, so there really wasn't any reason for us to stay awake all night but I had fun just me and my mom! So about 3:45 we left and went up to Walmart talk about a joke, do not know what I was thinking but I wore flip flops and a hoodie, in 30 degree weather outside by the time they opened the door my feet were numb lol! Only I would be so smart! Well as we were running in my 83 year old grandma was in front and my 60 something year old aunt you just had a stroke last year (Crazy Ladies) was behind her but still in front of me, someone from behind was pushing my aunt Edna into the carts and my grandma was getting a cart shoved into her back, talk about piss me off I looked back and just yelled at the person behind me and it was a 40 something year old women, who I knew, she just smiled back at me, I can not believe people get so crazy over something so small as a 20 dollar deal, I think that they should start raffling off the stuff that people get so crazy over, it is still the same as trying to be the first one in to get it the chances are the same! But I had fun got everything I wanted, and what is so funny, is everything that I got and went for they are all still on sale and there is still plenty left lol! Oh Well! I had fun anyway! After we got done shopping I had to go help my Grandma 'O' set up her booth at the Santa's Workshop, I haven't even showered, and got no sleep, sat down there all day helping them, I was so tired and looked so haggerd! But I had a lot of fun and can not wait till next year!

Barrel Racing

So we put the kids in Barrel Racing this summer with their cousins Shaycee and JaedLunn and they absolutely loved it. They have a horse named Blue that they ride. Of course they don't ride her by themselves, dad or mom has to lead them around the barrels and believe me in the hot summer running with a horse around barrels isn't the funnest thing especially when you are out of shape lol, and they would put our kids back to back so we would have to run twice in a row. But it was fun for the kids and we are going to do it next year. Kayton wants to learn to ride by himself, we let him a little bit before a couple of runs but never let him ride her by himself! I can't believe how big they are getting, they are growing like little weeds! But I do have the best kids in the world!

Kaytons Kindergarten Program "Animotion"

Kayton had a program at school today "Animotion". It was the cutest thing we have seen. Kayton and his class were suppose to be Polar Bears, the other classes were monkeys, elephants, seals, and Mexicans! There was this Donkey (It was just two teachers in a costume) that was in the Mexico part of the program that aspen was absolutely scared of, it was so funny, she started to cry and Steven asked her what was wrong and she said she was scared of the monster and steven said its just a donkey and its leaving now so she started to laugh and asked is it coming back. It was so hilarious! Then HadLiegh kept pulling aspens hair and scratching her face doing what she does best. lol. Then there was this guy in front of us that she was leaning forward trying to get him. She is such a cute little turd! Good Job buddy we are so proud of you! Mom and Dad love you so much. You did such a good job, and you were so cute!!!!!!

This is the Donkey she was so scared of lol!

This is probably the cutest Polar Bear you will ever see!

Right here he got to tell everyone "Thank You For Coming Everyone" it was so cute!

HadLiegh's Broken Leg

This is HadLiegh asleep in her high chair, sportin' her broken leg. Eating just must be a lot of hard work.

This is the Car Seat that she was sitting in when I broke her leg, Her foot was wedged down inside the slit right there and I didn't see that her foot was stuck. We were in the truck, when I went to get her out I was grabbing her with one arm because my other arm was full of stuff, and as I was pulling her out I heard a "POP" and she immediately started to cry I knew I did something but never imagined it being her leg I thought I did something to her foot, because when she started to cry I put her back down in and seen that her foot was stuck! I felt so bad I immediately started to cry! Her tibial bone was broke completely in half but still intact so all they had to put on her leg was that splint and she only had to wear it from Sunday to Monday. The doctor said that baby's with breaks like that only take 5-7 days to heel. Everything is fine now she crawling and walking all around my furniture!

HadLiegh you are such a brave little girl, I love you so much!
