OOPS!

So I forgot to post something on Mother's day. My bad! I did send out cards so I didn't forget them all together. Here is a couple pictures the mothers in my life. And by the way I have the bestest mother in the whole wide world. She rules and I hope she knows that. The first one is of Tyler and his mommy and then this is the only picture I have of my mom on the computer.





Here is a list of things that I hope I get from my mom!
Her love for running. She is going to run the St. George Marathon in October. She is amazing. Ten kids and she is 5? and she still has the energy to run 26.2 miles.
Her family is the most important thing to her.
Her ability to make anyone feel comfortable.
Her patience.
Her love for sewing.
And the list could go on and on!

Love you mom!

Help!

Can someone help me figure out how to get my picture and your names back on the side instead of on the bottom??? PLEASE PLEASE! I am special.

Update

So I had my last day with my sweet little boy Liam. It was a sad day but I get to still watch him a few more times whenever they need me. He was such a good baby and so cute. And his parents were the nicest people in the whole wide world. I miss him. And on Monday I start with a new family. They have 3 kids. Danielle is 8, Zackary is 4, and Megan is six months. It should be a fun time. Way different from the last one but still fun. Good birth control. lol
Guess what. . . I am going to have more visitors!!! Jacob is coming to visit Father's Day weekend and Jess and Mick are coming the following weekend. I am so excited. I love having visitors. It gives me something to look forward to. And then a couple weekends after that we are going to Colorado to see his whole family. It will be so fun to see Ryan and Alecia and Taylon. We haven't seen them in a year. So we miss them. It will also be fun to see Brooklyn and Brandi. We miss them tons because we hung out with them all the time when we lived in Colorado. And then we are going to Arizona for a few days at the end of July for the 24th celebration. So we have a pretty fun summer planned.
We also put a bid in on a house. We are not sure when we will find out if we got it. We loved the house and I can't wait to get into something bigger then our one bedroom apartment. I will keep you posted.
Well I think that is all for now. If I forgot something I am sure Tyler will let me know.

Fun week with the In- Laws!

Tyler's parents got to come spend a week with us this last week. It was so fun. We went to San Fran for a couple days, tons of shopping, baseball game, looked at houses, and more shopping. Terri loves to shop like I do. Poor Tyler. But overall it was a lot of fun. I can't wait to go see them for the 4th of July. We missed Brooklyn and Brandi but they will come next time. Our apartment isn't big enough for everyone. I can't wait until we have a house and then everyone can come.

Tyler's weekend

Tyler felt sad that I had a post for my weekend and he didn't. Poor baby! Well when I was gone his friend Josh from Colorado came to visit him. They had a fun time. They went to a Nuts game. Which is a minor league baseball game and they have to do something with the Rockies. So probably a good time to go so that I wouldn't have to join them. Don't get me wrong I love baseball but just a good time for him and his friend. On Saturday they hung out in Roseville. They went swimming, played catch, and went to the batting cages just to name a few things. They seem to of had a good time. I am glad that it worked out that Josh could come and visit when I was going to be gone so Tyler wouldn't be alone. Poor thing. But I hope that next time Josh comes that he can bring Jamila and we can all hang out. Here are a couple pictures of the boys.

Fun weekend in AZ!

I got to go home and see the family for Mother's Day weekend except I didn't get to see my mommy! TEAR TEAR! But she did get a weekend of semi peace and quiet. She only had to deal with Jacob and we all know how that could be. LOL! Just teasing we love you Jake!
First off I flew in and my daddy, mick, and sam picked me up at the Airport and we went and ate at Peter Piper Pizza with the Rachel and her fam and Ike and Steph and Jess. It was a lot of fun. The kids love the pizza and play the games. It was the first time I got to meet the new addition. She is so freakin cute. Makes me want to have one just like her. Then on Saturday morning we went and watched the kids play soccer. It was so funny. Raymond is hilarious. He just runs around. He will be a pro like his older brother Grant one day. It wouldn't let me put the pictures of them playing because they were to big. But there is a couple of them. Aneron is so cute to watch. She has definitely gotten better from last time I watched her when she was playing tag with another little girl. One of these days she is going to be like her mom and aunties on the field. After the game we went and helped my dad pick out some stuff for the deck for my mom for mother's day. I hope she liked all the stuff. It will be nice to go home and use it.
Later that day I went shopping with Hannah and Jessica. That was a lot of fun. We had a good shopping day. Jess found a lot of good deals and Hannah found some cute stuff also. I refrained from trying anything on. I am trying to lose some weight and my nephews helped me remember that. Got to love there honesty.
That evening we met up at the park and had some cookies. Lindsay and Jacque and there families came. That was a lot of fun. It was good to see them and Josh and Caleb also came. It was a fun get together. Thanks everyone for coming! Made me feel loved.
On Sunday we went to church and the kids sang to their mothers. It was very cute. Also Aneron had a talk. She did a good one on families. She is an awesome big sister. Such a good example. I can't believe how old she is.
After church I went and hung out with Ashley for a while. It was so good to see her and catch up. I miss her dearly!
When I got home the kids and I played on the slip and slide. Well okay I watched and they played. Raymond wouldn't let me forget that I brought my swimming suit. It was very entertaining watching them. When they new I had the camera up they would act really funny and pose. It was great. I don't know where they get all that energy from. Must be from their dad's side of the family because the Isaacson's are all so quiet and to themselves. HAHA yeah right! And then that night I went to Jess and Ben's for a little bit and then they took me to the airport. Thank you guys. And thank you Rachel and Cameron for letting me stay at your house. It was so much fun. I just love hanging out with them. I wish I could do that once a month. Rachel has the best kids ever. I hope my kids are as cute as they are. I must say my siblings produce some cute kids. I hope Tyler and I are that lucky.
It was such a fun weekend. I can't wait to see them all again soon! Love you all!

Funny Husband

So Tyler decided that he wanted to make me dinner tonight and he just walked through the room and said " this whole being a woman thing is harder then it looks." I can't stop laughing. He is special. I need to remind him he said that next time he nags me. LOL!
I will post again in a few when I get all my pictures from my fun weekend onto the computer! Just couldn't resist telling that. And I need to publish it now because I am Lorraine's granddaughter and I have the worst memory.

Another pic!

It wouldn't let me add this to the slide show but I love this picture of the scenery! So I am making a post just for it! LOL! Tyler made fun of me because I said it was a picture perfect spot! Then there is me posing like I am a pro! I am the next Lance Armstrong as long as the seat is comfortable! I have a big butt but it still isn't enough padding for a long bike ride!

Tyler gone and we already miss him!

I took Tyler to the airport this evening to fly to So Cal for work for the week. He will be home on Thursday night so he can take me to the airport on Friday afternoon. He is down there for work they are doing some kind of transition down there and they needed his help. So off he went! Sweet! JK! I do miss him but not as much as the boys in the pic. I stepped outside the apartment so they could go in a raid his closet. Then they dressed in his clothes so I could take a pic and send it to him. Made him laugh!

So we are going to be pretty busy the next couple weeks. . . Tyler is gone this week and then I go to AZ this weekend so see my new niece and the rest of the clan which I can't wait to do. And then Tyler's parents are coming on the 17th to stay for a week. It will be a lot fun. We plan on doing a lot of exploring and looking at houses and a whole lot of fun stuff! It will be so nice to go and see family and have family come see us and see where we live! Love you all and can't wait to see you!

P.S. To all you smart college students good luck with finals and if you are already done congrats and enjoy your summer! Congrats Jess for graduating and good luck with your new job! LOVE YOU!

Trip to Lake Tahoe

This last weekend Tyler and I decided to take a trip to Lake Tahoe. It is about and hour and half away so not to bad of a drive and it is a very pretty drive through the mountains. We got there friday night and we hung out in the hotel and walked around the streets and went to the shops. It was a beautiful night, kind of chilly but still fun. We stayed in a hotel right by the ski resort Heavenly. Lucky for us it is in between seasons so it wasn't to crowded. On Saturday we woke and went exploring. We drove around the little town then we decided to rent bikes and ride around the lake. (not the whole lake I am not the ambitious) It was so fun. It was so pretty. There was a lot to see and it was an easy bike ride. Tyler was complaining that I was to slow but I was just enjoying the scenery. lol! He forgets everything is not a race for me. After the bike ride we headed home. It was a good weekend. Oh did I mention on Saturday the boys(elders) called us to see when we were coming home. They missed us. . . how sweet!

BoYs!

Tyler loves our neighbors or maybe they love him. But they always manage to play everyday. I love it because they keep him entertained. They play some funny tricks on each other and at times they have there serious moments. The other day Tyler was having them practice their door approaches on him and he was giving them tips. ( like he knows right) But it was funny and I think they all were learning. Then yesterday they put a CTR magnet on Tyler's truck. Which was quite hilarious. They then acted like they didn't have anything to do with it.
We went for our evening walk tonight and we ran into the boys and so they rode along side of us for a while then Elder Aland got the great idea that Tyler should ride on his handle bars. It was pretty funny as you can see in the picture. Sorry it is a little blurry I took it on my cell phone. It is just proof that they never grow up. I am pretty sure that my friends and I would not think to ride on the handle bars now that we adults.
I just realized that a lot of my post have been about the missionaries. We do actually have a life outside of apartment... wait never mind they are our only friends. They have become family. They walk in and go through the cupboards and the frig. Now I know where all the food goes. And they are even getting so comfortable that they have started going into my bedroom. Kind of scary. I guess I better make sure my bras are put away. I am sure am grateful for the missionaries. And I am glad that they seem to love us as much as we love them. It will be a sad day when they get transfered which I know wont be for another 6 weeks. LOL!

Walking!

So since I have lived in California I have found $25 when I was walking. I have come to the conclusion that either Californians just like to throw their money on the ground or walking is finally paying off in a way. So instead of driving everywhere I am making a personal goal to walk more. Besides the fact that gas is $3.83 here I could use the walking. It keeps me busy! I am also hoping that one of these days on my walking adventures that I hit the jackpot and can afford cosmetic surgery!

Heart Attacked

So Saturday evening Tyler and I were sitting in our apartment. I am not sure how Tyler did hear them but the missionaries decided that they would heart attack our door. He was sitting in the front room. They were pretty quiet. I was impressed because they are never quiet. It was quite funny. They put funny sayings and scriptures on all the hearts and shapes. Pretty cute idea. This is a picture of the door and Elder Cason. Tyler calls him gator because he is from Florida. He insisted that I add his nickname. He gives them all nicknames. Beats me! Just confuses me.
So Tyler being the competitive person that he is had to retaliate. . . So here is the outcome. It took him a couple hours. He was sifting through the newspapers finding sports, clothing , and religious articles to cover their door. It was kind of nice to have him entertained for that long. LOL! But the boys loved it. So funny how boys sorry I mean men are so easily entertained.

Update

So I figured i would give an update on our lives. Nothing really new. I still love my job. He is teething though so yeah all you mom's know what I mean. He can be a brat. LOL! So it is a good birth control. It might just be the having to wake up at 5:15 every morning that is getting to me. I need my sleep!
Tyler is doing well. He loves his job. He still is training and so he is not to busy yet. I am sure it will come. Kind of nice right now because when I get home he has dinner ready and the laundry done. He makes a good house wife.
I made him buy me a softball glove today so I can learn how to catch a ball. Kind of funny. My arm is sore! Yea I am a wuss. But it was still fun. I will go pro here in a couple weeks. Yeah right! I can barely hit the ball let alone catch! haha Poor Tyler is learning patience. We also went to the batting cages and you guys can all imagine how that all went. I am afraid of the ball. And Tyler says I have no form! Whatever that means.

Notice Tyler's great form. LOL!!!!
Brat face Tyler told me to wear a helmet but I guess you don't have to in slow pitch cages. LOL! So now he is making fun of me for wearing it. I think he is just mad that I look better in a helmet then him.

Rascal Flatts Concert!

On April 10th Tyler and I went to the Rascal Flatt's and Taylor Swift Concert. It was so much fun! I love their music! We enjoyed every second of it. She is so cute and they are so funny! I recommend it to everyone. If you ever have the chance don't pass it up. It was so nice to leave the stress behind and sing along with the music. It was the chance of a lifetime! Thank you Tyler for taking me! YOU ROCK!

Neighbors and Job

So this last week we got to have the missionaries over for dinner. They live right next door to us. So we had them over for a BBQ. We see them all the time. They are our only friends. On Monday, which is there P-day, we went to the park and played some games with them and then on Wednesday they came for dinner. A couple other missionaries from the area came over also. It was so fun. Tyler was on cloud nine. He hasn't been that excited in a long time. It was nice to have friends over even though they were the next door neighbors and the elders. They are fun boys and they love to play pranks on Tyler. Keeps them all entertained as long as they keep me out of it. I feel like a mother figure to all of them. haha!

Here is a picture of Tyler with our tiny grill on our tiny deck! He was the outside chef and I help down the fort inside! I must say we made some good food!

I started my job last Monday! It is so much fun. I watch an 8 month old little boy named Liam. He is such a good baby. I am so lucky. He is on a very good schedule so it makes it really easy for me. His parents are so nice. They are both school teachers so I will only be watching him until the end of May. But it is a good experience for me. I absolutely love it! And Tyler loves it to because it gives me my baby fix so that we can hold of having kids for a little while.

NEW CAR!!!

So since my car was totaled out and we could only have the rental car for so long without having to pay for it we went and bought a new one! We got a 2008 Toyota Camry SE. It is so nice to drive. We decided to upgrade into a bigger car so when we have kids we will have more room. Ty isn't used to how long it is compared to the Corrola. He is so nervous it cracks me up. I guess I would be to if I had just been in 3 accidents since just right before Christmas time. I love driving it and I do most of the driving now because of his bad luck.

On a different note!

So once again I will be getting a new car! Tyler went to the store to get some bread and on his way home a lady turned right in front of him and he ran into her truck. It totaled my poor little car. Makes me sad, but what can you do. Tyler is doing good. He has some soreness and a nice mark from the seatbelt. So we took him to the doc and they gave him some pain meds so he is good to go! I have only had that car since January so I wasn't to attached to it yet but still makes it hard to part. I went today and gathered everything out of it and said my goodbyes. She no longer belongs to me. Sad day. Now I am on a new adventure to find a new car because I am not a big fan of driving the BRIGHT RED Chevy Cobalt. That is what they gave me for a rental. Not quite comparable to my car, but will have to do until I can convince Tyler to get me a new one. Actually it has to be by next week. LOL!

New Edition to the Winter's Family!

My sister Rachel finally had her baby! She had a little girl and named her Ivy Jane Winters. She is the cutest thing ever. I hope my babies are this cute! She weighed 8lbs 9 ounces. So she was a healthy baby. Man I wish I were there to hold her. But they keep sending me pictures so it works for now. Her brothers were so excited and Aneron was extra happy! I told Raymond to give her a kiss for me and he said that was gross. Typical boy! He told me that she is the cutest. I thought that was so funny! I am sure she will get plenty of loving from everyone.

Two Months!

So I have basically been doing nothing all day so I thought I should make a post. Tyler and I have been married for 2 months today! Kind of exciting. Time sure flies! A little update on us we have been starting to look for a house. So stressful but so fun at the same time. They are so expensice around here. Wait I forget I live in California everything here is expensive! LOL! Poor Tyler has to deal with me worrying about money. He is a good guy and puts up with a lot. I found a job as a nanny and I start on Monday, so that will take away a little of the money stress but yet money is the root of all evil so I know it will never go away! So I just want to tell Tyler that I love him and thanks for putting up with me!
On another note my sister Rachel is expecting a baby any time now. She is going to be induced at 7 in the am. So hopefully the little girl in her tummy hurries up. Aneron needs her to help put up with her crazy brothers! Because it is the Hannah and Sam's spring break my mom and them have spent the week helping Rachel and kids. Wish I could be there but such is life!
I can't think of any other exciting news today but I hope to be busier starting next week so I don't feel like such a bum!
