My Mother...

Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing mothers.. you are the most beautiful and wonderful people on the face of this earth. I have been influenced by so many mothers; my friends mothers, my grandmothers, my wonderful mother-in-law, and of course my mom. If you know me at all you know my mom and how she is the most perfect and special person who has ever lived. The only reason I am scared to become a mom is because I will never be the mother that she was to me. I use the word perfect because that's what she is. I never once remember her raising her voice. She always put her daughters first, even if it meant her giving up sacrifices so that we had everything we ever wanted or needed. She has taught me that the only things that matter in this life are the gospel and your family. She instilled in me an undying love for the gospel, my Heavenly Father, and Savior. She has been there for me always, no matter what, and I know she always will. Even when she has hard to go through hard things, things that nobody deserves to go through she has kept her head up and has always had such a love and energy for life. I love her more than she will ever know and am so very grateful to have her as my mother.

Baby

We have some amazing news.. I am 12 weeks pregnant and this little one will be joining us in November! Never in my life has time gone by so ridiculously slow. We could not be anymore excited and I am so grateful for this huge blessing in our lives. Even though you can't see much here are the two ultrasounds that we've had.

8 Weeks..

11 weeks..

Ugh I'm terrible at this blogging thing, probably cause I never have anything of much importance to say. Well were actually home, we've been home for a couple weeks cause the rodeos are around here! Laughlin was last week and it was awesome because Jason and Austin won it... this is the first win of the year.. Then next week is the Logandale rodeo and fair. This is my favorite time of the year because this is the longest were home during the season plus the weather in Vegas has been absolutely perfect, i love it! I'm a sunshine person, i hate the rain, snow, anything other than sun.. So many fun things this weekend I can't wait- Easter, Conference, and Alivia is coming home for the weekend and she's my favorite person in this world!

Here's some pictures before we came home from San Antonio and Houston..

Houston

San Antonio

This is my nephew Depp..... here are some of our talks..

ME: Depp what do you want to be when you're older

Depp: The GRINCH!

Another time...

Me: Depp where did you get your pretty blue eyes?

Depp: Jesus gave them to me

This is why i love kids so much especially my nieces and nephews who I think are pretty much the cutest!

I love..

Being home!!! we've had about a week off from rodeos so we were able to come home for the first time in about six weeks ( we were gone so long that our new ward just thought we stopped coming and decided to send our records back to our old ward.. lovely).. Jason's sister Britney had her baby boy and he's such a cutie, I'm taking a quick trip up to roosevelt this week to go

see him!

Little baby Jett Levy!

While we were in TX we got to go to the dallas/ ft. worth temple.. it was amazingly beautiful like all of them..

This next week will go so fast and then we'll be going back down in texas for a couple more weeks!

Texas

The 2010 rodeo season has started (the two months we had off were way to short!).. so we are now in texas for the next couple months. During the winter all the rodeos are around here so we'll be in Dublin, TX staying with Randon and Audrey( thanks Aud for being so awesome and taking us in!) when were not gone to a rodeo. Im just happy to be here because getting everything packed for months, then the 24 hour straight drive down here is kinda crazy! but were here so everthing is great. They rope in Ft. Worth, TX.. and Rapid City, SD this week so thats where we'll be.

Audreys baptism

Things have been super busy from the NFR, Baby showers, family christmas parties, Christmas, getting ready for rodeo season to start but a major highlight was that we were able to fit in my sister in law Audrey's baptism... she was able to finish all the discussions and we thought she would have to wait untill we got down to Texas but we were able to talk the mission president into letting us do it last night and it all worked out perfectly! It was a little thrown together but a long time coming.. Audrey is one of my best friends and such a blessing in my life and im just grateful to have seen her testimony grow and she's such an example to me.
