I'M GOING TO BE A "REAL" AUNT!!!!!!!

I AM SO EXCITED!!! Tyson & Ashly are having TWINS!!!
Tyson is my little brother and he even admitted his life being too simple! So here he is parent to be of TWO BOYS!! I love it! He is stoked about buying bunk beds already and he is going to be such a good dad!!! Ashly is so beautiful pregnant! I can't help myself to kiss and rub her belly. I could sit next to her for hours with my hand on her belly anticipating to see my little nephews! I of course am an Aunt to 36 adorable kids on Nate's side. But for my side... these are my first! I am so excited to be a "real" :) Aunt! Tyson & Ashly recently were sealed together and I was so blessed to be there for such an awesome experience! I am so proud of both of them. Ty & Ash bring so much joy to my life, they are so genuine!

Whhheeeww!

I thought this day would never come, to actually be able to take some time for myself! Life has been so crazy! It seems that each month has brought new things for our family and we are very excited for the direction we are headed. Nate has been working very hard! After 7 1/2 years at Watson Pharm. Nate has finally found himself in a new environment with a new pharmaceutical company called Cephalon. He is very excited about his new job and I am very proud of him! We are especially grateful for the blessings his new job has brought. Less Stress on Nate's shoulder's which has brought nicer evenings with us! :) And we are saving a ton on insurance too with just as good of benefits! Nate is still going to School at SLCC, and still teaching once a week at Liquid Lead. He has been taking whatever extra time he has to learn an animation program called Maya. He has set himself a goal to be pursuing his dream in the Animation field within the next year. Time will definitely fly by! GO NATE!

Desi has been our typical 3 1/2 year old! :) We love her to pieces! She brings so much joy into our lives and out-smarts us everyday! When you find your 3 year old lecturing you, you take a minute to say.. "What the heck just happened? I am the Parent!" but without being said, she has us already figured out! She has been going to pre-school and absolutely loves it! She is also taking a creative dance class and It is so adorable to see her curtsy and hear her say "Thank you, Lady" ...LOVE IT! It is so neat to watch her grow! She loves to Sing, Dance and right along with her Dad she loves to draw! She always volunteers to say dinner prayers and she loves visiting family and friends! She loves to talk on the phone and will talk your ear off and she even is learning to ride her bike, she is anxious for each new warm day!

I have been working my tail off! We just returned from the biggest show of the year CHA (Craft & Hobby show) in Anaheim. A lot of time and work went going into the show and I have still not come off of my work HIGH yet! What a blast! I learned so much and I absolutely loved meeting and seeing a lot of my customers! Not only that, I am also apart of an awesome Sales team! Our Parent company has just bought out another Scrapbooking Co. called Chatterbox! They have a gorgeous new line out and WOW! What enthusiasm! I have learned so much to be POSITIVE about life from them!
I am learning so much in my life right now about being happy! From Financial bonds to strengthening all of my relationships! I am really trying to be "well rounded" ... speaking of being "well rounded".. My next goal is to lose some weight! This week is focusing on Family time and Making time for myself! I started yesterday with getting my hair done! It has been way too long for that and well needed!

Have a great weekend! LOVE THE FELLERS!

P.S. I hope David Archuleta wins on American Idol!
