Bye Truck, Hello Volvo

Dodge Dakota Tuck

This last week we sold our Truck. We have had it listed on KSL for about 2 months and not trying really hard to sell it.
On Friday June 26th a young man called and asked if he could come test drive the truck. Great, he came Saturday while I was having Gibson's birthday party.
Then on Monday he called and gave us an offer. Andy and I looked at each other and said "Sweet". It took us one evening to find a few cars we liked and one that I loved.
One week later after the 4th of July weekend. We dropped off the truck to the young man and picked up my 1998 Volvo V70 Wagon! I absolutely love it. Only thing it is missing is tint and that will be done soon.

A shout out to an amazing Father

I know this is a few days late, but I wanted to tell my husband Andy what an amazing father he is. He works so hard for all of us so we can enjoy activities, treats and fun surprises. He teaches our kids by example in hard work, love and fun. He helps them learn how to do everything they try to do and enjoys being with them.

Even though you love your chickens I know you love your kids the most. Thank you for being the wonderful father you are to our children.


Teaching them camping,


playing with them,


and just being with them!

New Camera

I have had my Canon PowerShot SD550 Digital ELPH 7.1 Megapixel for at least 4 years and I loved it. I have dropped it so many times, taken a great number of pictures from it and used it well.


For my birthday this year Andy decieded to get me a new camera. He found a Polaroid Digital Camera 10MP BLACK i1035 3x OptZoom for about $50 bucks on Woot, a screaming deal. I have been using it for the last 3 months and it just doesn't touch the quality and user friendly that the Canon did.


What do you do? Well I put them both on eBay. They were my first real auctions I have ever placed on eBay and they exceeded my expectations.

Canon PowerShot SD550 Digital ELPH 7.1 Megapixel Sold for $105

Polaroid Digital Camera 10MP BLACK i1035 3x OptZoom Sold for $46

Sweet! Of course with eBay fees and such I ended up with about $130 but I am still really happy.

Today I picked up my new camera. A Canon PowerShot SD790 IS digital elph 10.0 Mega Pixel!

I am so excited to use it!

This sums up my whole Trip...



Loved it!

Must Confess... I Love ...

My friend Brynn told me she and her kids listen to Radio Disney in the car. About a couple weeks ago I started to listen. Well, I don't know if Etta and Gibson like it, but I must confess I LOVE IT. Taylor Sift, Miley Cyrus, Ashley Tisdale, and HS Musical songs, just great! Plus they add a few playhouse Disney songs from Handy Manny, mickey mouse and and Disney princess songs. I am still working on liking the Johans Brothers, but I will say "HoeDown Throw Down" is my new Favorite Song. Who knows maybe I will take Etta to see the new Miley Cyrus movie :)

Here is my Fav song with lyrics- I bet it starts to become a favorite!

Gibson's favorite game

Gibson loves this Cabbage patch kids game. He doesn't play it the correct way, but who is to say there is a correct way or a wrong way when kids play.



Jill and Tiffany hopes this brings back great memories!

Baseball Season Starts Soon

Even though this weather sucks I am so excited for Baseball season to start. We have a beautiful field, the best seats and a great team.

GO BEES!
