Backyard Campfires

With all of the wonderful weather lately, we've been taking advantage of our backyard.

Khloe plays out there daily, and loves every minute of it.

She used to be scared of getting dirty and would say "help, dirty" if there was dirt on her hands.

Now after playing with her uncle, she beggs me to "play dirt?" all of the time.

She loves to play in the dirt.

One thing that we've started to do often is light a fire in our dire pit and roast marshmellows!

We love S'mores!

We've had family and friends come join us and that's when it's the most fun.

I love my sweet Khloe bug



Kyle loved teaching Khloe how to roast "moshmewowes"



22 Years Old

Yes, it's a bit late. Better late than never!

My bithday was on February 27th and my husband made it amazing!! First he took me shopping and to dinner in Vegas. We had so much fun, and we went to PF Changs!!!

                          I LOVE PF CHANGS!
Kyle definately spoiled me big time this year. I got A LOT of new clothes and jewelry :)
Then just when I didn't think my birthday could get any better, it did.

Kyle and my mom threw me a surprise party!!! There were so many friends an family there! I felt so loved. Thank you everyone who came and wished me a happy birthday! It was wonderful!

By the way, I'm not sure who had my camera, but these are all of the pics that I ended up with! There were a lot more people than are showed and I'm sorry!, but I love you all!

Khloe had a blast with all of the kids! Titan, Lykan, and Hayden were there too!
Khloe loves all of her cousins, friends, and uncles:)



I had such a great time!
Thank you everyone for making this the best birthday ever.
Thank you to my sweet husband for making me feel so special on my special day!
I love you

Up

This is Khloe's favorite movie right now. And though I'm getting sick of it, I love this movie!
It makes me laugh out loud. It's just a cute movie. It has all of Khloe's favorite things, balloons, dogs, a grappa, a bird named Kevin....etc. She just can't get enough. She get's so into it too, it cracks me up.

Our New House!

So back in November, we bought a house!! It was  a cute little fixer-upper, and we had to have it! It was the weirdest thing. We weren't even really looking for a house anymore, but our realitor was still sending us houses to look at. I was looking through some of the emails and I came across this house. It was a little hard on the eyes, but the tile was beautiful and it was cheap! Just for fun, I asked Kyle if we could stop and look in the windows on the way to the store.



           So we are looking in the windows, and this place was TRASHED! There were huge holes in the walls, every wall was a different color. Someone had even spray-painted in the shower!!! This house looked like a lost cause, but for some reason I couldn't shake the feeling that it was supposed to be ours. When we walked around to the backyard, I couldn't believe it. The yard was HUGE! (for St. George) That was one of the most important things I was looking for in a house. Everything else could be fixed, but you couldn't build a yard.

        Luckily my husband and his family build houses, so we had plenty of help fixing it up just the way we wanted it! It's an older home, so there are HUGE mature tees that give us a ton of shade! (and a ton of leaves for raking...) Tha major selling piont for me was the yard. The house is on a quarter acre and the yard is Splendid! Well... it will be when it has grass and stuff.... :) Let's just say there is tonz of potential! So while you look at these pics, think ... potential.

Fixing the house up ourselves was so fun! I think it really made me appreciate it more. I like to call it the surprise house because it looks old and ugly on the outside, then you walk in to SURPRISE!!! Everything is new and updated! haha... Anyways... Here are some pictures of the house BEFORE and DURING the renovations....

   I pretty much did the whole house myself....between posing for pictures that is....

Kyle was so happy the whole time!! Especially when I took pictures of him while he worked!



We broke through into the storage room so we could build a big mud room/ laundry room.





We are going to put a new wood burning stove here.




 

Paper Route Helper

 So for the past year, Kyle and I have done a route for the Spectrum.
                                 (yes, it's lame. however, it does pay my mortgage:)

Every morning at 5:00am Khloe and I get bundled up and deliver papers for about an hour and a half.

                                           (And no, we do not do it on a bike.)

Anyways, Khloe is such a trooper! She does it every morning with me!



    (unless it's too cold or raining, in which case Rodney sleeps over so she can stay home.)

                            

            This is My little Route helper at 5:00am ready to go!



She is seriously the light of my life.
It just doesn't get any better than this!



She loves to "help" me fold the papers and sing "Doncha!"

                                ("Don' cha" -by The Pussycat Dolls)

I had her say "don' cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?" one time and she got a huge reaction from it so she just kept saying it. Then I downloaded the song fo her and it's her favorite now.             

                                              Horrible mother? Maybe.

But I get to hear: 

"Doncha baby doncha! gerfend like me, Doncha!" all day long!

                                                 I think it's adorable, I'm not gonna lie.

Ummm... It's been forever.

 So it's been a while since I've blogged. So naturally, a lot has happened.

We bought a house.
I dyed my hair dark.
Kyle joined the Army.
You know,
        the usual.


Khloe loves to take rides in the wagon! My step-dad Jason always takes her so whenever
she sees him she says "Grappa Wagon Please!!"





This is Khloe taking a nap with her babies. She is such a great little mommy!
She always hase to have ALL of her babies with her.



This is Khloe's new play gym in the back yard! She LOVES it!
And I love having a back yard:)
