its been a while...

it really has been forever since i have posted anything! so here is a quick (boring) update.
there really hasnt been a whole lot going on for us lately. chris lost his job back in september, so i went to work until he was able to find another one. i would have kept working also, but i had to quit since there is virtually NO babysitting up there in duchesne. so now chris is working for a company out in slc, while i stay at home with noah and the puppies and take care of the house. i dont mind a whole lot being home with just me and noah. i have some good friends who live close by that keep me company and noah is always keeping me busy. lol. right now i am down in sl and getting to spend some time with my wonderful hubby. we were only apart for a week, but it sure seemed like forever!!! i am going to be down here for a few more days since thanksgiving day is right around the corner. i love the holidays! the food and the family is great! lol. i know, i am a major dork. but what can get better than that?!
anyways, thats really it for my little boring update. not really much to tell. lol.

Rolling with the punches

right now i am kind of going through a difficult time in my life. i am back on the job circuit and trying to find something!! it is so friggin hard out here in the middle of nowhere! lol. yesterday i looked all over the basin pretty much and couldnt find really much of anything. which sucked. made me feel a little depressed. but today is looking a little bit better. i have found a job as a correctional officer that is sounding fairly promising. all i have to do is take a little test and turn it in with my application and go from there. i think that would be a fantastic job! and i am really looking forward to it if i get it.
also in the midst of all of this, i am trying to find a place to rent. and believe me, that is not easy out here. but i have a couple places in mind. i am meeting with a lady on monday and she said that she almost always has somewhere to rent out, and she is going to take me around to a few and let me check them out. she said that she has a cute little 2 bedroom house to rent, which im really excited about. i would rather have a little house than a trailer or something like that, but right now beggers cant be choosers. lol.
i will keep you all posted on what is going on when i know what the hell is going on.
thats all for now......

Wedding weekend madness is over!!

This past weekend was tons of fun! And tons of crazy too! hahaha!! My sister finally got married on saturday. She was so beautiful! The wedding was really nice too. We got to see lots of people that we havent seen in a while. Then after the reception, Noah snuck a few buns that were left over and we went down to the bridge to go feed all of the ducks. I think that was his favorite part :) He loved standing on the the edge of the bridge and throwing it to them. He would laugh histarically when all of the ducks would go racing for it trying to get to it first. Very cute!
A lot of the family came down from Canada and California to attend the wedding as well. That was a ton of fun! The family that came down, I havent seen in forever! Its been at least 5 or 6 years. Some where around there. Noah really had a good time with Matt, Dan, and Jessica. But most of all I think that he really took to Matt and Dan. They all had such a fun time screwing around together and just being boys.
Now I am getting ready to head back out to the boonies to my peaceful little house. lol.

My sisters getting married!

yep, my big sis is finally tying the knot on saturday! im so excited and cant wait!! I am trying to get my house all in order so that it wont be a mess when i get back. lol! what a chore! i hate cleaning... GRRRR!!! but i am super excited to get to see a bunch of family that i havent seen a long time and spend some time with them.
I will let post more when all the craziness has all settled down. lol

life...

life is going good lately. I know its been a long time since i last posted anything, but i havent really had a whole lot to blog about. Just been hanging at home with the kid mostly.
This last month has been a little crazy. Jaxon had his first birthday party and got spoiled rotten. Noah was kinda jealous cuz Jaxon had all these fun toys, but noah got to play with them, so he was a happy camper again. And the weekend before that was the 4th of july, which i usually go down to the parents house to go see the parade and watch fireworks. I love to see the happy smile on his adorable face when he sees all the fireworks. He gets so excited and yells and claps and carries on. I cant explain how much i love that little munchkin. Then on the 18th, jackie had her bridal shower which i went down to salt lake again. lol. the first 3 weekends of this month i was traveling to the city. VERY busy. Then this weekend is my big sisters wedding! I cant wait! I am so excited and happy for her.

long weekend...

.. so i have been down in grantsville hanging out for the past few days and chris came down for the weekend to hang out. we got pam to watch noah on staurday and went for a ride on the motorcycle. it was so much fun! we just rode from tooele in to salt lake and back, but i had such a good time! the only thing thats kinda hard to get used to is the wind blowing so hard in your ears! but it is still fun. while we were in salt lake he was so wonderful and took me to get my nails done :) i have such a wonderful hubby! then the next day (sunday) we went for another ride around salt lake while chris's mom watched him. it really is a ton of fun riding on the back of that bike. afterwards he took me jamba juice. that place is so darn yuumy! but i really enjoyed the time alone with him.. its been a long time since we were able to just get away like that.
but now i am really tired. i was planning on taking a nice little cat nap this afternoon, but pam called me and needed some errands done. which was alright, if i didnt do those for her then i probably never would've gotten dresses to day! LOL! so now i am officially really sleepy... and noah has been asleep for a couple of hours and i am thinking that it is probably a really good idea that i should go to bed and get some rest too. :)
i really dont have anything else to blog about right now, other than everything and everyone are doing/going well! :)
good night!
XOXO

more ink

i think that i have become a tattoo junkie now. lol! i just went and got a new tattoo on tuesday. i love it! it sure was painful though! OMG! it was almost all i could do to just sit in the chair to finish it all. this one is right in the middle of my left forearm on the underside of it. its a big heart with a cute little swirly design around the bottom part of it.
i was surprised how much it HURT!! my first tattoo i would compare the "pain" to being snapped on the wrist with a rubber band. the new one actually briused all around it. ouchy! but most of the scab has fallen off and its looking pretty good now :)
