July over load!!

We have been super busy and things have been way crazy around here!
And yes we are STILL at my dads house!

It is AUGUST and Kyle said til AUGUST so YAY!!
the house hunt is on... (as if it ever wasn't lol) but officially now!

here are a few pictures of what we did in JULY!!

We were still carless. Since Kyle was taking mine to work
after he wrecked the jeep.
So we walked lots of places.

This park is just up the road about a mile so we walk there lots!

Jadyn all dressed up and ready to walk to the park..
(she pushes her own little stroller there most the time :))

Koston playing around and swinging he had so much fun!!
and was laughing so hard!!

Jadyn taking a break to blow us some bubbles!

This is how we roll.....
I feel it pointless to take the double stroller when Jadyn walks
but this time she ended up not feeling well,
she was complaining of it being to cold and it was 90 DEGREES!
sure enough poor girl had a fever when we got home!

A few days later we went camping with my Dad and Kathy...

she found this utility ribbon stuff and thought she needed it in her hair!

Jadyn & her cousin Chance
Chasing Squirrels and butterflies!

Then we had some fun on the water!!
She does this "no emotion" thing!
regardless of how much fun she is having she does this...
its so funny!!!

I mentioned something about Tonni having a birthday to Jadyn
(a few days to early)
She immediately got super excited and starts singing happy birthday
and says...
"AND WE COUNT TO THREE AND WE BLOW OUT THE MICKEY MOUSE CANDLES!!!"
lol it was hilarious!!
We have never even been to a Mickey Mouse birthday so I dont know where she got that.

But for Jadyns sake I thought we would make Tonni a cake!
One for Tonni and one for Tonni that is really for Jadyn ha ha!

Here is Jadyn making the cake then taking a break to see the new baby chicks!
(I promise we washed our hands Tonni)

Here she is decorating her "Mickey Mouse" cake
She seriously ate more frosting then the cake got!!

More decorating....
(and LOTS of sprinkles)

Her finished product!!
I am so proud of her!!!

......

One of my very best friends Michelle and I decided to make Tonni
a cake that was a little more mature lol!! or NOT! ha ha
This cake for as simple as it looks... literally took us like FIVE hours lol!
we probably goofed off half that but still! I didnt go to bed til THREE!
I had never used fondant before and I was really pleased with the way it turned out!
Michelle did the tuff work of rolling it out ha ha!! while I just watched her do that part :)
What took the longest I think was making sure everything was symmetrical
and I hate this picture because it looks crooked
and believe me pictures do not do justice for this bombshell!


We went to Tonni's work and surprised her with our cakes!!
I think we "surprised" the whole salon when we revealed my cake for her :)
We sang to her and got to blow out Mickey Mouse candles!!
this made for one exciting day!

Afterwards we went to lunch,
then decided to have a birthday party (with out Tonni)
@ build a bear in gateway mall.

Also got our water on!

It was a very fun (tiring) day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TONNI!
(July 15)


Kyle and I took the kids to a local carnival
.....

Here is Jadyn making a necklace
with the daughters of pioneers (or something)
Koston just hangin out!

of course some Cotton Candy!!

and a lunch break!

re-hydrating and wore out!

Koston thinks he is on the rides!!

THEN.... We also went to LAGOON! or as Jadyn calls it
GAGOON!

She did really good and really loved it!!
of course her "no emotion" face lol but as soon as we got in the car
she couldnt stop talking about it and continues to talk about it everyday! ha ha!

.......

Growing up I always knew that when I had a baby girl
I would get her ears pierced
as soon as I could!!
That same thought continued throughout my whole pregnancy!
but as soon as Jadyn was born and I saw her adorable little ears
there was no way I could put something in them!!
As Jadyn got older we talked about it a lot
but always worried about her playing with them or taking them out.
so we always postponed it..
until now!!

Jadyn and I started talking about it!
and she started getting so excited and couldn't stop talking about it for days!!
so finally I decided what the heck!!
loaded up the car drove down to the mall (we went to south town)

This is how excited she was....... she was clapping
and yelling "BE SO MUCH FUN!!!"
(I even warned her it might hurt a little)

We walked into the store
looked at their earring selection
Jadyn picked out
some cute pink 14k gold studs,
and
They had 2 people working so that was a plus.
(they could do it at the same time)

Jadyn patiently waiting and getting all lined up!

They did such a good job!
She didn't even flinch!! she did so good!!
and I got it all on video!

Final product...!

I am so glad I waited until I did because it has been such a fun
experience for her!
everywhere we went and everyone she saw she had to point out her new earings!
"Look at my pretty earings!!"
she still does today!!

I love being a MOMMY!!!!

..............
BRING ON AUGUST!!

4th of July & Camping

Our 4th of July weekend Started on June 30th,

Jadyn and I went shopping for some new outfits and got 4th of July Pedicures!!
((I tried gettin a shot of our toes together but she
wouldn't hold still, this was the best I got of her toes)
She also scratched her cute little stars off :(
& offered to take mine off as well :)



July 1st
We headed home (to Blanding) and camped out at Nizhoni Camp ground
We had a family reunion with my dads side of the family,
(his parents and siblings and their offspring)
Our reunions typically last a week!
It is so fun to see everyone even if it is only once a year!
(ps I was horrible at taking pictures I maybe took 1 or 2
and bummed the rest off someone)

This is Jadyn Playing Dora the Explorer :)
She LOVED bein in the mountains with everyone!
This makes me hate the city that much more :(



Then we did some of this....

Baby Aaron Cousin Kristie & Koston

(ps this lake has LEACHES!!)

We had shooting contests,
biggest pancake contest :)
more shooting
lots of yummy dutch oven food
& more camping food!
More shooting and more food!
We had so much fun just kickin dirt around
with no worries.. (other the the FREAKIN bugs!!!!)
.......

Then of course the 4th in BLANDING!
its always fun to come home and see old friends

(was it me or did it seem a little less crowded this year?)


My Grams and I..
Waiting for the parade to start.
Jadyn watchin the parade...

I feel so bad I didnt get a picture of Koston in his 4th of July out fit!
BAD ME! :(

We left to come home on the 4th and stopped in sandy to watch the fireworks.



What a long trip... it was nice to come home to a "real" bed



It took a little more than nap time and regular sleep time
for Jadyn to catch up on her sleep
I kept finding her around the house asleep poor girl!!




It was a blast and cant wait for next year to come!!!
Love you all!

Happy JULY!!

Summer Days....

Jadyn's cousin is hangin with us this weekend! We decided to go swimming! love warm summer days when you can play! We used to go swimming at my moms house in her private pool! aw!! it was so nice just have the whole thing to our selves! But... She recently moved to California so we don't have the luxuries anymore! UNTIL.... a single lady my dad used to work with has a HUGE pool and backyard with a playground and everything all to herself said we should come over whenever we want!! AAHH!!! the temperature was so perfect the privacy was awesome and we don't have to worry about other peoples diseases lol! So don't worry mom you have been replaced! (we still love and miss you very much!)

Cute Girlie....
Koston Loungin....
This KID loves the water!

Jadyn did so good! we decked her out in
floaties and she was all over the place by herself!!

HA!! She HAD to wear the goggles!!

Koston's toes all dried off and ready to go!

After we went swimmin we took the babes home for a nap, and
the girls went grocery shopping
for lunch supplies!

Jadyn HAS to do everything on her own!

This is what we made for lunch! Super easy and super yummy...

Chicken Bundles

Ingredients for Chicken Bundles

• 4 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1-13 oz. cans chicken
• 1 Tbs. sesame seeds
• 2 cans Pillsbury Crescent Rolls - leave in fridge until ready to use!
• 1 Tbs. finely chopped onion or dried minced onion
• And any other garnishes and add ins you want (I added some mushrooms and green bell peppers)
• Also I sauteed the onion mushrooms and pepper 1st but you don't need to.
  
• If you don't add anything you might want to double the chicken and add a lil more cream cheese to make the servings go further
  

Directions:

Combine the above ingredients (minus the crescent rolls) and mix well.
Open a package of crescent rolls. DO NOT divide into triangles. Keep every 2 triangles together, forming rectangles. Pinch the seams closed and pat each one out into a larger square.

Put a spoonful of chicken/cream cheese mixture into the center of each square. Fold the corners up into the center, layering like flower petals so the roll is sealed. (Don't stress too much on the technique, fold them up press seams together to make a bundle.) sprinkle with sesame seed.

Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 375 degrees until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.


Then we made this....

Death by CHOCOLATE!
(it's suppose to be cooked in a bunt pan but I couldn't find one at my dads)

• 1 chocolate cake mix
• 3/4 cup sour cream
• 4 eggs
• 1/2 cup oil
• 1/2 cup h20
• 1 small package instant chocolate pudding
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips ( I like to use the small ones)
• powdered sugar

Grease & flour bundt pan. preheat oven to 350*
Beat eggs, sour cream, water and oil together in a large bowl until thoroughly mixed.
add cake mix and pudding mix stir in chocolate chips.
put in pan (it'll seem kinda thick)

Bake for 45-55 min or until fork comes out clean
cool cake in pan, dump it out onto your serving tray and sprinkle with powdered sugar
(I frosted this one this time it's really good either way)

WAIT FOR IT... Wait for it....

Oh come on, it’s only been a year and a half!!! Lol.

A lot has been going on to keep us busy from blogging! No excuse, I know!

First things first.. We had a BABY BOY! If you are on facebook I’m sure you knew.

KOSTON JIVE NEZTSOSIE

Born November 3^rd 2010 at 11:20 PM he was 7lbs 3 oz 19 ½ inches long. Adjusting to two was very easy. It helped that Kyle was able to take a full month off of work to be with us! Jadyn adjusted easily there were a few days after Kyle went back to work that were a little tuff but they worked out and we made new routines to suit the whole family.

Just about to POP...!

Sittin on the chouch! little baby!

Koston at his 6 month appointment! love my chubby baby!

The week that I found out that I was pregnant Kyle lost his job! He was working for a company called AIR LIQUIDE at the Micron plant in Lehi. I don’t think I have ever seen Kyle so stressed! He was excited for a baby but so nervous of how he was supposed to support us let alone a new addition! After a month of being unemployed he found a new job working for Halliburton its based out of vernal so he a has been traveling to and from there every couple of weeks then to other locations in Wyoming Utah Colorado its been keeping him VERY busy and definitely leaving me very busy (and lonely) as a solo parent! I’m super proud to have the husband I have and its definitely comforting to know he takes pride in providing for us! He never lets us down! He loves his job and the people he works with! Its been such a blessing! We had been trying to sell our condo for almost a year before this just on our own, actually not really trying other than a sign in the window lol but as soon as he got this job we listed it with an agent and it still took us 8 months to sale!! Stupid market! We just sold in april and have been staying at my parents while we looked for a place in Vernal to move to, this takes us to where we are today We came here thinking a week or 2… our stuff is all in storage minus a few necessities and the kids beds. Every time I got online and looked for rentals in Vernal I just got the strongest feeling that now was not the right time to move I kept getting that for a month to the point I just stopped looking… finally I thought I would start looking again and I felt good about it found a couple places for Kyle to go look at gave them references and did what I could do to get the ball rolling from here… just as we get within days of moving Kyle gets transferred to a Colorado crew!!! UGH!!!! So to start all over with the what the heck are we doing crap! I don’t do good without a plan. I plan like months in advance for everything ha ha! So now we were debating to just move back to Blanding so I am at least closer to friends and family while he is gone…. Then just last week they call him and say they want to keep him in his exciting location!! OKAY so back to vernal or still to Blanding??? Its all up in the air and Kyle wants us to stay at my dads til AUGUST then decide! SO HELP!! Lol…. Then just a few days ago as Kyle was going back to work he hit an elk in the Jeep!! Totaled the Jeep so we are down to 1 car for now which he has with him so I am stuck here without a car til insurance kicks in and we can get a replacement!! He is totally fine not a scratch thank heavens!! So we have lots to figure out I know it will all work out for the best if I am patient which I am not lol! So we will see! I wanna hear opinions though so feel free.. lol, Well that is my life in “blog” version for now!!

a couple pictures of the JEEP!! post bull elk! (my pictures are all screwy for some reason and I dont really care to fix them tonight lol) the pictures below these are a few that my mom had taken the top one is my mom with Kips baby Aaron!
