Just a little craft

My mother has always been a creative little person..this I love about her {and many other things} She had these set on her fireplace with some greenery (sp?) but I myself dont have a fireplace so these cute things will be sat on my entertainment center {if you can even call it that} until I find a place for them. The Pictures are backwards but I think they turned out very cute!

One Hell Of A Trip

When you say the words farmer, stock show, or road trip that just might be bad enough but put them all together and I would say thats "One hell of a trip".

Wednesday we left at 6:00 p.m. so we could make our time schedule of arriving in denver at 3:00 a.m. the following morning. Things didn't happen as planned...we didn't plan for the truck carrying the trailer with heifers to break down at one in the morning making us have to unload everything we loaded up in what I swear was -5...just so me and jason could carry the trailer out and then load up everything we had just taken out of our truck into Nathans truck. We didnt arrive until 6:30 a.m. and didnt get to the hotel until 2:00 p.m.! exaustion I tell you! The show was so exciting, we did awesome this year taking 3rd and 6th in our class out of 30 heifers. Jason was grinning from ear to ear, what a cheeser! We woke up the next morning just to find out the jasons truck had been broke into in the hotel parking lot. Nothing was taken thankfully but the door is pretty jacked up (sometimes it pops open by its self while driving down the free way!). We left this morning at 5 hoping to be home before dark..with the hopes that all the bad streaks had ended. 1 hour out of Denver Jason truck started making really loud noises..we are thinking its the turbo or the transmission! great...now we get to unload the trailer off of jasons truck put it back of the other truck and load up what was in jasons truck ( you following me?) whew..that was alot well enough said about that. All is well until evanston..basically shit hits the fan when this other other kids truck named seth (keep in mind there where 4 trucks) brakes went out! everyone needs brakes...so jason being the kind generous man he is offered to drive in front of him so that if he could not stop he could just run right in the back of us. great well at least I dont have to worry about bad weather like last year but I do have to worry about this dang truck behind us with no brakes rear ending us. We drove like this all the way from evanston til home. I am just happy we made it here..and now I am going to go enjoy my nice comfy bed.

Nothing to say..

I have nothing to say but "THE RABBIT IS DEAD!!!!"..now maybe your thinking I said that a little to excited..maybe your thinking that I should be grateful for the rabbit, it did make for some good laughs...it also got 60 mpg, or maybe it was cute in its own little way just like that ugly duckling..or maybe it was just a pretty sweet car. But I can assure you that my excitement does have meaning..I mean it did smell like maple syrup pretty bad and it not only squeaked when you started it but also for the next couple blocks while leaving behind a big old trail of black smoke. I did love that I had to crawl through the back to open doors and that my feet couldn't reach the gas pedal so while driving I tried to stay forward which brought sharp back pain and may be that cause for my lack of feeling in my feet (sometimes ya know). But when I got that call on January 15th from my loving husband that while climbing that trencherous hill from payson to santaquin that the engine had blown up and he was now getting pushed down santaquin main by his dad I did all I could to comfort him but truth be told I was laughing like a hiena!

Here are a few last pictures and then we will forever retire our dear sweet rabbit..

Finally a post..

Maybe an update would be fun eh?...

Wow, crazy..where do I even start. I am getting horrible at updating. Lets just say we are doing wonderful, life is crazy with the constant schedule we have but all is good. We spent thanksgiving at my parents house this year which brought our traditional clay pigeon shoot off. Dinner was great just like every year. Dec 3rd we went down to the NFR for my second year in a row. Saturday we watched the Rodeo and Sunday we shopped all day (for jason) and went to the Shark Reef Aquarium that night. Dec 15th was our 2 Year anniversary its crazy to think that it has gone by so fast and to think that I am in love with him more then ever is the best feeling I could feel in the world. I am glad when I have those days that remind me of why I fell in love with him all over again and the things I had to go through that led me to him. I look forward to what this next year has to bring to us.

Wrestlin that pig and swiss days

Last week jason was out of town for his annual trip to Iowa...long week I tell ya but I filled it with alot of fun and exciting things. First things first me, sharleen (mother-in-law) and her friend packed up and headed for swiss days. We went down the Slide and Zip line in parkcity and it was a blast! Sharleen nailed me on the slide with her fast and crazy moves. The wind picked up when we started going down the Zipline so that was fun. We then headed for the booths down at swiss days..I just love midway. On labor day it started with the payson parade (glad thats over) I was in it for hair school, I just threw candy at the kids (and the parents heads) Watch out! I am an awesome aim I tell what! and then for the Pig Wrestling ahh!! can I just tell you that pigs are disgusting the poop stunk and was mushy and I went in with BARE feet! some how I got roped in to doing it with my school so the four of us struted ourselves out there to catch us that pig...no good luck but it was fun. After we got out a girl got the poo all over my face, wow I was about to puke all over..seriously was dry heaving but after getting sprayed off by the fire truck all was good.

Slippin and a Slidin' & Fishing (again)

Last year was the first year we had our huge family Slippin' Slide but I wasn't able to go, so I made sure this year I would be able to and it was a blast! I have like more then 80 people in my family and I think that maybe all but 10 didn't make it. It was hilarious but scary to watch the little kids go down, they could never get out of the way in time so the adults would nail them on there way down and it was no soft hit, they were hard! but no one got seriously hurt just a few tears now and then.




My Nephews

The following day we left for our trip to Fishlake...I will just tell you I suck at packing, this is my first time not having my mom to pack for me so I was a little nervous..I had a reason to be nervous after I got there, realizing I forgot everything from flashlights to my husbands pj's. (poor thing had to were my tight pj's and cheer sweater, just dont look lower then the waist ha!) I forgot the chicken that I was supposed to bring for the whole family, my mom had to cover me for that...and I cant even begin to think of everything else I forgot. The first night it was just me and Jason all alone, I didn't even end up falling asleep until 4 in the morning because of my fear of bears and whatever else out there that was ready to pounce on me! Jason did a great job of comforting me though. The next morning we got up at 6 to go fishing in our little aluminum boat we rented, I caught the only trout fish of the whole trip. That same day the rest of our family showed up and we went on a huge four wheeler ride, talk about DUSTY! I looked like a racoon after I took my sunglasses off, but it was a very fun ride..we went to the creek after words to wash off and it was freezing! I just had to laugh because Jason was screaming like a girl...I got in and I couldn't tell if the shampoo was out of my hair because my hands were so numb! On saturday we rented a pontoon boat for the day and didn't catch a thing..only stupid little perchs I swear we had to of catched around 15 or 20 of those suckers..not a trout in site. It was funny because that night all the little kids got in the shower in my sisters trailer and so shane ( my nephew) had seen all the little naked bodies so when I got in he was laying on his bed and his mom asked what he was thinking about and he said "oh just wondering what megan looks like naked" ahh!! ha ha I just had to laugh. We had a very fun trip and I am glad all my family decided to come up.

Fishing with a Fro.....and the birthday

Last Friday we went up to Strawberry where my sisters family was camping just to eat some dinner and go fishing for a while..we didn't end up pulling out the fishin pulls but we still had a lot of fun watching the kids swim, and the dogs..what a hoot! they were so fun to watch them fetch the stick out of the water. Now let me explain my hair..I have curly hair, really really curly hair...that same day was the spanish fork parade which I was a model in, for my hair school so having the hair I do we had to make that thing into a fro..I didn't have time to wash it so I guess I thought I could just comb it down, that didn't work one bit so I just left the fro and went fishing, horrible I know but what can I say.

Please dont laugh (this is really embarrassing, like a black mail pic)

The 19th was my birthday so we set off that day to my sisters house for a BBQ. My little neices birthday was only a couple days before so we celebrated together. The day before we actually went out to GoodWood for some grub and to the new Harry Potter movie, I dont know if it was just me but the movie seemed pretty dang long...anyways we did have a lot of fun and I am glad to say the I am now 20 years old...no longer a teenager, I cant say how happy I am to be out of my teenage years I just got a little tired of telling people how old (or young I was) and then to tell them I was married just blew there minds.

how cute?! Jasons tickling her belly
