Two Four... Two Four!

This last week was Jordon's Birthday week! We had so much fun everyday!! That is the exact reason that I wanted to do birthday weeks... to have extra fun every day for a specific reason.

This year we didn't have quite the money we did last year so we only did 3 presents for 3 days but the reason that we didn't have money for 7 presents was because I threw Jordon his first ever SURPRISE PARTY!!

On Monday I drove him to school so he didn't have to worry about parking and walking in snow. When I picked him up I gave him his 1st present which was a new belt. His old one was breaking so I though a reversible, white and navy, cloth belt from A.E. would be fitting!! It was on sale too!

On Tuesday I drove him to school again and picked him up. His 2nd present was a new pair of winter gloves that even have thumb slots you can remove so that you can text! Pretty cool!!

Wednesday I gave him a new shirt that looks soo good on him! We rented a redbox and went to bed early. We both needed lots of sleep!! Thank goodness he doesn't mind going to bed early.

Thursday we hung out after he got done with a safety meeting for work. We walked the mall looking for Christmas presents for our families. Then we went home got ready and dropped Princess off at my parents for a "nice evening out just the 2 of us." Jordon wanted to go to Buddy's for his birthday dinner. Little did he know that we only had a half hour to eat before the party was set to start. Anyways, we sat down and ordered and started eating the delish buddy's salad when I noticed what time it was. I told Jordon that my brother couldn't watch Hads any more so we had to leave. He got a little irritated but said ok. We got our food to go. I told him that I wanted to give him his last present before we got Hads but he had to close his eyes so he couldn't see where we were going. He did, but he didn't really want to.

We arrived at this new place in Poky called "The Sandlot". It had batting cages and a little birthday room and it was perfect! So we arrived and I led him with his eyes closed inside and upstairs to where our families were waiting. We got up and in the room and then I turned on the light and everyone yelled "Surprise!!" He was so surprised he didn't know what to say. We ate pumpkin cake then went down and played kickball. After that we opened up the cages and hit for about 45 minutes. It was so fun! It was a little expensive, but so worth being broke the next week or so!!

Friday was his real birthday but I had to work so we didn't do anything too big. After I got off work Jordon and Jake had a surprise for me! They had fixed the hot tub and the new hot tub cover. We ate left overs from Buddy's and then went and got shakes from Artic Circle. We rented movies from Video Stop and headed home. Hads got put to bed early cuz she was up late the 3 nights before. Then, the 2 of us watched "Our Family Wedding" which was so funny!

It was a great birthday week and I'm so happy that I got to throw my husby his first surprise party. 24 is a great age and I can't wait to spend the next 50 birthdays with him on Earth and an Eternity in Heaven!

awake again

so lately i have been feeling like i need a change.
i dont know from what but i need one.
i am thinking maybe its my current job.
not a huge fan of higher management.
i may be put on an action plan, sales are low.
or i may be fired if i cant meet thresh hold.
honestly, i would be a little sad but i would be happy to be home with my 2 babies Ti and Hads.

I feel bad saying this but really, I give great customer service and make people feel good about banking with us and I save accounts. I just am having a hard time getting people to open more accounts or a new account. I know Rosie is feeling pressured. Its not her fault. Or mine really.
You cant make someone do something they dont want to with their money.

anyways i am loving this nice warm weather! cant get enough of it.
i could however get more sleep. like alot more

Hadleigh had her 15 mon check up on monday and her stats are:
Weight: 26 lbs, 80%
Height: 311/2 70%
Head Cir: 15 in 80%
pretty much this says that i have a beast of a daughter.
where she came from i have no idea!
but i sure do love her.
she also has a double ear infection.
poor baby. bad mommy.
she still wakes up crying in the middle of the night
that is why i am currently up
couldnt fall back asleep
i think i am taking her back in on tuesday
her meds will be in her for a week then
maybe her ears will show improvement

so that is my 4:30 am feels like 5:30 am post for Sunday.

i think i will be back after church, and a nap to say more.

good early morning to you!

It was a SPOOOOK-TACULAR Halloween

This Halloween was much better than last years and the year before! Two years ago we were in Utah waiting the night away at my grandparents house. Jordon had an Italian test at the Y the next morning. Last year Jordon had to work and I stayed home, with a 3 month old baby, with no lights on and watched Hocus Pocus... which by-the-way kinda scares me still. This year we went to Trunk-or-Treat, Jordon actually dressed up, Hadleigh hung out with other kids, and on the real Halloween I had her in her jack-o-lantern baby leggs leggings!! Awe... much better!

We went to the annual pumpkin carve in the B.L.K (blackfoot) and Mack won.. who'd'a guessed!! Haha. And then took pictures of the kids in their costumes on Friday. Saturday I worked but got off early to go T-or-T and then we watched Spencer and Jackies dog Champ too! Sunday was so fun!!!

Anyways, here are our pictures!! I think we make for a great African Adventure!
Welcome To Our Crazy Wonderful life!
