Cruising on the Limo




Finally warm weather has arrived. We pulled out our favorite family cruiser, which we like to call the limo. It is so much fun, and the moose just sleeps the whole time, he loves the chariot, I can run, cross country ski, and bike with him in it, he loves all three. We took it to the park today and had a picnic. Cross your fingers that the weather stays good.


One time I took him cross coutnry skiing in it and pulled him up a really steep hill.  I didn't think about the coming down part.  Poor kid we got going and I tipped over.  I looked in to see if he was ok and he had the funniest look on his face, but he didn't make a peep.  I tipped him right side up and we both had a laugh and then kept going.  I love getting out with Isaiah he is the best little partner and side kick!

BEES


Kristjian, yes we are not closet hippies any longer, we are official. We just bought a few hundred bees and two hives to harvest our own honey. Our neighbor has an orchard that we put them in. It was Scott's fabulous idea, our friend Mike gave us some honey from his hives and it was so good we decided to do it. Scotty is in love with them, it has replaced the garage for his favorite place to go.

Australia is Lucky


Jesse my little brother just left to Australia on his mission. It was so surreal sending my little, not so little, brother to the MTC. It brought back so many memories of my mission and the MTC. I loved the MTC I had a hilarious companion that made me laugh every day. She was my favorite companion of my whole mission. She almost killed an elder with a snowball, she played college ball and had quite the arm. He had tried to hit me with a snowball, and she had my back. Him and his companion actually hid from us at gym time and finally waved a white flag, a napkin on a stick, for a treaty so that she wouldn't kill him. Good times. Suprisingly I was more excited than sad to see him go, because I know what an amazing and life changing experience it is to serve a mission. Jesse will grow so much, and the people of Australia will too getting to know him. Crazy enough I had a dream right after that I was serving another mission and when I left the MTC I was like I made a mistake I need to raise my baby, crazy, maybe I am sleep deprived!!

Mooses Smiles Make My Day


The moose is so smiley and hilarious as of late, so I just had to post an updated video, of how cute my little moose is. I swear that nothing makes me smile wider or laugh harder than when he smiles. I think nothing tops bieng a mom, yes it even tops the best powder day.

Leslie's Crazy Post Idea

So this was Leslie's idea, you should all try it, go to the sixth folder, and pick out the sixth picture, and blog about it. This is the little photo shoot that we had with Isaiah, so sweet!! Jessie did these photos for us and they where her first baby pics she ever took for someone. She did a good job! Anyway, I am going to update pictures of my little man. He is getting so big and he has mastered his first trick, no not a superman, or 360, but a ROLL.. Yes he is rolling. I am going to post a picture of him now a days, he is twice this size.

DEBIDAS!!!


O.k. so Scotty, and my friend's husband came up with a term for my random crazy moments, and forgetfullness, loosing keys, my mind ext.. They call it Debidas, it is my name and hers combined (bida), because she suffers from the same disease. This post is mostly is for you Bida, here is a prime example of a debidas moment.....
So the other day I am driving our lovely Jimmy, as seen above, it runs both on natural gas and gas, and I noticed that it was running low on gas. I called Scotty and he said that it would just switch over to normal gas. Well switch it did, right on the freeway, the only problem was that it was out of normal gas too!! So I start chugging away on the freeway, I ran out of gas on the freeway!! You might be thinking that is it, that is a Debidas moment, that is nothing. No it gets better. So I luckily get off the freeway and call my mom. While I am waiting for a reply from my mom, I decided to pump milk, maybe too much info, but it is part of the story. So anyway there I am pulling out all of the stuff to suit up, and I hear a knock on my window. I look up and it is a police officer,in training. He asks me if everything is o.k., and I told him that I ran out of gas. He says that he can give me a ride to fill up a gas cab. Luckily I was just preparing to pump, not pumping, anyhow, I got in the cop car, and his trainer was in the backseat, two cops, lucky me. So anyway we drive down to the gas station, and the first station, the can was stolen, so off to the second site. The cop nicely reminded me to wear my seat belt, anywhow to make a long story short, we filled up the car, and got back to the Jimmy. This is where the story becomes DEBIDAS, I toatly locked my keys in the car. The story has a happy ending though, it ended with two cop cars, and three cops, and two wire hangers later, I got gas enough in my car to get to the gas station, and my keys back. So if you made it through this story good job!!

Anniversary Trip



We went to St. George for our two year anniversary and stayed in a bed and breakfast. Last night me and Scotty were talking about how all in all we have only known each other for five years, but it feels like I have know him all my life. Poor little Isaiah didn't get to come along on this trip, I know, I know, against all motherly instincts, after eight weeks, but I think that after a new born it is good to get away just the two of you. I have to say though I didn't realize how much we would miss him.

We went to the temple and did sealings, we are trying to do it every annivesary. I love it because it reminds me of our wedding day and all of the blessings that we are promised, if we keep our promises to the Lord.

We also went mountain biking, and it was pretty much the first time since I had the moose, lets just say I was pretty saddle sore after, but SO worth it!!!
