Twilight!

I have heard people left and right talking about this new Twilight series! I've been contemplating on whether or not to read it, and yesterday while I was doing my weekly errands at Walmart I was standing in front of the shelves looking at them and some lady walks by and tells me "You won't regret it!" So I thought what the hell I will do it (it's only $8 after all, and if I don't like the 1st one I don't have to get the rest)! I finished the first book in 1 DAY! I couldn't believe it. I was addicted from the first chapter. Needless to say I am now one of those crazy obsessed people on the Twilight bandwagon, and I am going to Walmart today to buy the other 3 books so I can read them this week!

New job!!!

I am super excited, because I started a work-from-home job today! The best part is that it is basically my own business. I get to work as little or as much as I want. Plus some of our basic expenses are now considered a tax write off for us! Anyway...I am just doing training, and I already can't wait to get out there and start bringing in some extra money for my family :) If any of you are interested in working from home let me know, and I will gladly give you info about the business I just started (maybe it'll be good for you too!). Have a great weekend everyone!

My mom and I took the kids to the Utah State Fair yesterday, and we had a blast! We started out by taking them to see the Veggie Tails concert. Dom complained that he hated Veggie Tails, but by the time we were done he was more excited than Syd and Tasia. Tasia paid more attention at that concert than I have ever seen her pay attention to anything! Afterwards we ate, and let Syd and Dom go on the huge slide thing they had. We went on the merry go round next. Tasia loved it! Everytime we went past my mom she said "Hi grandma! I ridin the horsey!" It was hilarious! Syd and Dom were pretending to be a real cowboy and cowgirl. They are goofy sometimes! Last but definitely not least (it was already 8 o' clock by then and starting to rain) we went to a little hands exhibit that taught the kids what it's like to work on a farm. It was the neatest little exhibit! First they started out by getting a little pail and an apron for them to wear. Then they went over into a different little barn where they gathered corn (each area gave little facts along with the activity). Once they gathered their corn you took it to feed the cow, and after you fed the cow you milked it (it was water shooting out of the fake utters). Once you did that you went to the apple orchard and picked an apple to put in your pail. Then you picked a seed (they had different options). When you had your seed you took it to the garden to plant it and water it. The next section was the garden, but the vegetables were already all grown, so the kids got to pick the vegetable they planted. Then it was off to the "hay field". The kids all got to jump in their little tractors, so they could haul their tiny bales of hay. After that they went and groomed some sheep, and gathered eggs from the chickens. In the end they took a picture in a little cardboard cutout that made them look like FFA members, and as they handed in their stuff they gathered they were paid a dollar to go buy something from their little grocery store. It was a very creative and educational exhibit, and the kids loved it!

StArVaTiOn 2008......

Over Labor Day weekend my little family of 5 went camping with my parents, my sisters and their families at Starvation! My parents brought their waverunners up for everyone to play, and I was excited because Anth has never been on waverunners but I knew he was going to love it! I was right of course. He had a blast! We spent all day Saturday at the beach. I got sunburned, but it was so much fun it was worth it. I can't wait to go again. This was our first camping trip since I was about 9 months pregnant with Tasia, so it was long overdue. Enjoy the pictures!



Gotta have smores when you go camping!


My 2 oldest and my wild nephew Gabe. Dom was splashing him, and he had no clue!

Yes that is my goofy daughter, but I love her!

It was a long day in the sun for Tasia :(

Aunt Stephy bought her Krabby Patties, because she knows they are her favorite!
