Ouch

My sweet Sienna got an ouchy today. My niece Kaylee was carring her down the stairs and slipped and they both fell and Sienna bit her toungue. I would say she probably would have needed stiches if it wasn't her toungue. Here are some pictures don't look if you don't like seeing injuries to children.

The Place we call home

Well finally I have pictures to post for you all. Most of you probably have seen my house by now but here it is for the rest of you. I took down all of my Christmas decorations, I wanted to get it done and over with so I did it the day after Christmas.

Christmas

Well Chirstmas has come and gone so fast this year. We have been so busy with Jeff going to Oklahoma and changing jobs and getting a house. It has been quite the year. We are glad to be back in Utah again for Chirstmas. We had fun going to lots of family parties and opening lots of presesnts from each other, we are very spoiled. Here are some pictures of Chirstmas. Sorry I still don't have any of my house. I got a new camera and so the pictures of my house are on my stupid camera that is hard to get pictures from.

I AM SORRY

I am sorry for all of you that are waiting to see pictures of my new house. I have a small problem, we don't have Internet! So I was going to do some today at my parents house but no, I forgot a piece that I need from my camera. So.....I am working on it. Maybe it will be tomorrow.
I do really love my house though! It is fun to decorate and do whatever I want to it. I painted the living room and the breakfast nook and those two places happen to be my favorite so far. We just got the blinds up and all I need now is to get rods so I can hang my curtains. I want to buy new couches so we can have some seating downstairs too.
We attended our new ward today it is was a really nice ward. There seams to be a lot of good people in it and I think the kids will love it too. I guess when I was younger I went to that same church building.

FaMily PiCturEs

We went and did family pictures a week ago and they turned out pretty good. We went to the union Station in Ogden.

CNA

For the past week and a half I have been doing a CNA course at DATC. It has been kind of exciting doing something different than my everyday stuff. I plan on working as a CNA for a while until I can go to school to be something else in the medical field. I am not sure what I want to do but I think I will just see how the CNA thing goes first.

Jeff is working at Millionair right now, working the 2-10pm shift. He is thinking about a bunch on different things that he might want to try such as, a manager at millionair, a police officer, work on HA Base, a pilot, and anything that falls in his lap.

The kids are doing great! Sienna's Birthday is today! She turned 2. She had 2 parties, one at the Greens and one at the DeMilles. She got lots of great stuff and she loves it all. Sienna was my perfect baby but as she gets older she is starting to become a little more independent and kind of bossy (probably a girl thing). She likes things her way. I will post pictures when I can find my camera thing to do it.

A Home for us!

Our offer was accepted for the house we want to get so we are really excited! The closing date is Dec 8. Here is a little description of the home: It is in clearfield, it is a 4bed (and a den with no closet), 2 bath house. It has 2 family rooms. A 50's style kitchen (the house was build in 44), 2 car detatched garage (Jeff is excited about that). It is a nice little house with a nice yard, no grass in the back yet though). So we are excited to move in and put a little love into it. I will post pictures when we get it probably!

House....again

Well there still may be hope. Jeff talked to the house guy and he said he would go lower so I guess we might still have a chance at this house. I think that this house would be good for us so I really hope we can get it. Thanks everyone for all your concern and support, you all are the best!! If we get the house I will let you all know.

House

Well for all of you that where wondering, no we are not getting the clearfield house. The guy counter offered a number we just couldn't believe and have no hope of him letting it go for cheaper than the asking price (Pretty much). So we are still looking I guess. But I am going to be starting the CNA program at the DATC so I guess that will be good. So we just can't figure out where are lives are headed yet.

Halloween

Halloween was fun this year, for one it wasn't below freezing and two we got to have some fun with the families! Logan was the Hulk and Sienna was a Ladybug. They had lots of fun trick or treating in the neighborhood and eating lots of candy.

We are very close right now to buying a house. We put in an offer yesterday and we are waiting to hear from them. I am excited to get a house but hope we can afford it. It is in Clearfield and it is a little old house with 5 bedrooms. I think it will be great for us if we can get it for what we are asking. I am excited to have our own place again.

Back Home again

Well after a long drive home we are finally back in Utah. No Jeff did not pass his test and no he does not have a job and no I don't know what is next. Jeff is going back to Million air for a while until we can figure out another career choice for him. Right now we just need to find a place to live since we are stuffed into a small bedroom with no closet space and all of our stuff in a storage unit.

We decided that we would drive a different route than what Jeff took on the way to Oklahoma. We went through Texas, New Mexico, Colorada and then to utah. We went through Santa Fe and it was very neat. We saw the oldest house in USA and the oldest church. We also saw a few cool buildings and churches.

My new sweet baby - b!

coming home

Well Jeff gets to come home today. I am driving back with him. I am really proud of all that Jeff has done, he has sacraficed a lot and worked really hard. It has been a long hard process that our family has been through. We have grown stronger together and I am thankful for that. I am not really sure why Heavenly Father wanted us to go through all of this, maybe one day I can look back and see the good. Jeff seams really optomistic and that gives me hope. Jeff doesn't know this but I was at the temple a while ago and I had the strong feeling that Jeff would not pass and that He had a different plan for us. I was really hoping I was wrong. I am really glad to have Jeff come home again and I really miss Logan and am very excited to see him. Well thanks everyone for praying for us. We don't really know what direction our lives will go now but I guess it is just another adventure.

Oklahoma

Well I am in Oklahoma again but this time I got to bring Sienna with me. She did pretty well on the plane and was a little shy when first seeing her daddy after 2 months but now can't get enough of him. I think he missed her too! We are having some fun here and just enjoying eachother until I leave back home. Jeff takes his final test on Tuesday and then I leave on Wednesday. Jeff will stay until November 4th and then finally we get our man back!!

We went to the zoo on saturday and Sienna loved that. We also went to the Temple (another mini) it was pretty though and we got some fun pics.

Free, yeah, Free!

www.handbagplanet.com is a new website that is giving away handbags. There is no gimmicks just pick a bag you like, to enter in the drawing. Don't know if it will work but what the hay!

Here without Jeff

Well Jeff is still gone and I still miss him a lot. Sienna and I get to go visit Jeff October 14th, the day before Jeff's Birthday so that is way exciting. I got a good deal to come so I took it! We are staying for nine days this time and Jeff is pretty happy about it too. He takes his final test the day we fly home. We are really excited to have Jeff be done. Everyone please pray for Jeff to pass his test because it is really hard and if he doesn't pass then he has to come home without a job. Thanks everyone who is watching Logan for us while we go, we really appreciate it.

What a big boy, Logan!

Logan started preschool last week and is loving it. As soon as we got there he wanted me to leave, that was kind of sad for me but good for him. He is in the Davis county preschool program and he goes to Creekside elementary. I am volunteering for 2 days a month and I am excited to see what goes on there. They have a program where they get a lot of different activities and snack time and coloring and they let the kids choose where they want to go and what they want to do. The teacher will say when 5 minutes are up and they get to decided wheither they want to change or not. They learn how to manage there time and they figure out that if they don't go get a snack then they don't get on that day. So I think that will be good for Logan. I have notice that Logan speaks better than a lot of the other kids but i think that is because the state pays for children that have small learning disabilities to go to the program. Well I will post the pics when I get back and you can see how cute Logan looks!

Are you my husband?

Well I am here in Oklahoma. It is very humid and different here. I flew in from Denver on a really small plane which I boarded from the ground and up stairs instead of a thing that goes right up to the door. When I got to Oklahoma I could feel the humidity right when I got off the plane, yuck. It has been weird trying to get used to that. Well it was great to see Jeff after a month of not seeing him. It is weird how your husband can almost be a stranger at first when you haven't seen them in a while. For a few minutes I had to look at him because he looked different. He said the same about me. Well I have been sitting in his apartment while he is at work and I am pretty bored. I will post pictures of OK and us when I get home because I can't here.

If you see my kids give them a kiss and hug for me, I miss them already.
