Fallin Off The Face of the Planet!

2008-10-05T07:48:00.000-07:00

Hey all you Bloggers!! Seriously I know I am now the worst person at keeping in touch! Please dont be mad!! Life is so crazy and hectic right now on our family and were all just learning to juggle it! I think just about everyone is mad at me for not keeping in touch! I AM WORKING ON IT!! And I need to do better! So to quickly touch base with you all and hopefully i can make this a weekly thing to update it... The Kids and I are living in Colorado! Carter is in school and loves it! Although no one can top his school he went to in Manti its still a good thing. Chasee is totally living her little life to the fullest takimg every chance she can to escape or get into trouble! I love it! They are such good kids and I miss them every second I am working! Its so hard going from a Stay at home Mom to an Overtime working mother! I know i have to do what i've got to but its is so unbelievably hard! I find myself crawling into bed late at night when they are sleeping just to hold them. Luckily they have such a Wonderful Grandma Moore who has basically quit her job to be home with them when i am not! We are so blessed! I could never make it through this life with out the Lord carrying me through it step by step!!
Cole is so busy with School, work and Manti Football (Which by the way i think are going to take STATE!! Woo!) But he is such a wonderful Father and includes the kids in everyway possible! They absolutely love going to see him and getting that time with him! They miss Grandma and Grandpa Denton like no other!! They are just the greatest Grandparents any kid could ever have! Luckily we are only three hours away and hopefully once I get control on this new job we can adjust more easily and make it so much better for the whole entire family!!

Boy's night out!

2008-05-18T11:03:00.000-07:00

SO lately Cole has been working in Arizon for the Walmart assistant management training program. He fly's home, spends Saturday with us and then Flys back out every week! Its getting so wearing! Ha ha. But I had a super fun idea for him and Carter to bond this weekend!
I kicked the boys out of the house with the tent and TV and they watched movies all night and camped right behind the Apartments! It was the cutest thing ever! I guess it got a little cold at night but Cole could NOT talk Carter into coming in! So they made it the whole night and ate snacks and popcorn and just partied! How cute huh!!

View from my window:)

Chasee playing and then saying good night

The boys cuddling and bonding AWWW! but its too dard to see :)

We had to put it behing the apartments to the extention cord out the window would make the TV work!!

SO SO SO FUN!!

My cutest little bro!

2008-05-13T21:31:00.001-07:00

Hey all look at my freakin awesome bro! He is on his mish right now in Hawaii and wrote this song out there about his mission. He is the one playing the guitar! I just love him so so so much!! This is on you tube :) weiahu elders

Blessings and Testimonies!

2008-04-26T10:39:00.000-07:00

Okay as some of you know, this January we were considering very heavily taking a job in Ogden to make more money and was something Cole would have loved doing. Then he was approached by Walmart and they offered him an assistant management position when one opened. Which was not only a big compliment to him and his work ability but also it meant we wouldn't have to leave E town! We prayed about it and decided to stay here in Ephraim because that was something totally unexpected!
Time went on and we knew there would be an opening come May and we kept getting updates and encouragement from Walmart, so we thought it was a forsure deal. Then this passed month we found out that when this assistant manager left the Ephraim store they wouldn't be filling the position because they were over staffed here. It was a huge dissapointment! Cole started to get a bit discouraged but for some reason I was ok with the news. I knew that the Lord had a plan for us and what ever it may be it would be best for us. After all we were doing all we could right? We read our scriptures daily, We pay tithing, and For the first time last month I did a full fast. Normally I get really sick and have to keep fluids in me the whole time but I decided to go full out for the blessings.
My main focus in prayer has been our finances. As was the case in my fasting.
So even though we had this set back I was confident in the outcome even though we had no clue what was in store for us anymore.
Later I had realised. I took out on paper my tithing but never actually paid so the money was spent. I began to freak out! "Cole this is why were not doing so hot with our money (it seems like we have more money or it goes farther when we do pay it). and this is why Walmart is over staffed'! He kind of just laughed at me and said ya ok honey. I told him to go pay the tithing even if it means we go in the hole! Well he did. And come sunday I fasted again, because I had missed April's fast sunday.
Then While in Colorado I get this random phone call from Cole saying they were opening the assistant management position and that he had put in for it. I got a little excited but not daring to get my hopes up i grabbed Jennee and the kids and we sat down and said a family prayer. The VERY NEXT DAY Cole called and had the Job!! YEA!! So here is my testimony to all! Paying your tithing works! Along with fasting a prayer. And its so fun and exciting to know that for my self now! You always hear others saying it but until you actually apply it in your own life you dont quite get the full on understanding of the Gospel its truth and all the many blessings that come with it!

A week in Colorado!

2008-04-26T07:59:00.001-07:00

This week we went to Colorado to spend the week with my little sister Jennee while my parents went on a CES retreat! We are so happy to be home but absolutely LOVE spending time with the family! The kids Especially had fun with their favorite aunt Jennee. (They love her because she acts like she is one of them.)

The kids absolutely love bonding with Papa! He is just the greatest to play with them!

Tackling Papa!

Chasee trying to tackle Papa. Ha!

Everyday I gave Jennee one job while the parentals were away...
Day 1: Pooper scooper! Cleaning up all of the doggy poop in the back yard that has accumulated over the winter. My reasoning behind it- So I could lay out and the kids could play with out the fear of stepping in it.

She even tried Golfing with it! Yea, that didn't work so much!

So she went back to the shovel, and Carter took over the Golfing

Carter taking his turn at Pooper Scooper!

Wednesday is garbage day and i went to get the garbages and one was gone! Major wind storm took it away. So we drove all around the neighborhood looking for it. Finally we found it at the neighborhood park, all cracked and destroyed!

Carter found MaGa's tanning glasses!

Chasee decided MaGa's tanning glasses were the coolest! And took them every where she went the rest of the trip!

At the park.

At Jennee's softball practice

The girls flocking to Carter! Ha ha

and this is the end of our trip!

What Disney Princess am I?

2008-04-18T19:04:00.000-07:00

Saw is on Lisa's and thought I would give it a shot!

You Are Snow White!

Pure and trusting. You are a gentle soul who can get along with just about anyone. Everyone you meet instantly falls in love with you. How can they resist? You have a pure, lovable nature that's irresistable. Just don't trust everyone who comes across your path.

Which Disney Princess Are You?
K talk about cheesy! Ha ha ha. this made me laugh! I wonder if everyone would agree with this! i doubt it! But i did answer the questions honestly! maybe too honest! You should all try this!

2008-04-15T10:18:00.000-07:00

oh my goodness!!

Okay so I am getting Carter ready for School and brushing his teeth and all of a sudden he says, "Look!" and pulls this box cutter out of his pocket!! Holy Crazy! How was he supposed to know. He see's Cole carrying those around in his pocket all the time because of work. Can you imagine if he would have pulled that out at school! Yah Big Trouble! Thank Goodness he showed me before! I am still dying! You see these little kids get suspended and in big trouble for putting a plastic orange gun in his back pack, not even understanding what they are doing, but a BOX CUTTER!!@!@

Scrapbooking!

2008-04-04T08:20:00.000-07:00

Hey if anyone is intrested, a few girls and I have been talking about getting together once or twice a month just to let the kids maybe run around and play while we scrapbook. I have alot of catching up to do and i figue if I can atleast do one current page and a catch-up page a month I can do it!! Anyways it will be so so much fun! Kind of a bring your own stuff to do thing. And even my little friends not from E-town, if you wanted, It would be an excellent excuse to come down and see me! Even if its every other month! So anyway if anyone is interested let me know! I am so excited!

Pizza!

2008-04-02T10:05:00.000-07:00

For Lunch today the kids and I made Pizza's. When ever I make homemade pizza there is always leftovers. So we took totilla's and put the sauce on and the kids did their own cheese and toppings. They thought it was the coolest thing ever! And they were so proud of their Master Piece's!

March has been busy!

2008-03-24T08:15:00.000-07:00

WOW!! So much has happened since our last post! We have been so busy lately and I just haven't had the time!! So to hopefully up date every one here it is!

Easter!

We stayed at home this year to spend it with Coles family! Cole was gone to Football Coaching Clinics on Friday. Saturaday we woke up got the kids all ready and went to the Annual Ephraim City Easter egg hunt! The kids absolutely loved it!! Carter had to show me every single cant he found but still got so much!! Chasee was a little fighter! She was one of those kids that just as your bending over to pick up your candy some other kids would beat you to it and swipe it right out from under you! Didn't you just hate those kids! We tried to pull her away when others were around but she knew how to play the game!!

Next we went to Grandpa and Grandma Dentons! The kids did an Easter egg hunt there too that Grandpa or uh I mean the Easter bunny had all ready put out! Next we wtched my most favorite movie in the world, "Enchanted" and then Clay, Coles brother showed up with the cousins, Jordyn and Jaxson! So then we did a whole new Easter egg hunt with them!! Ate a delicious BBQ lunch and played, played Played!!!

This year the kids didn't wake up to the Easter Bunny's Treats. The house was just too big of a mess! So We woke up and Cleaned the house so that the Easter Bunny could come! And we did it all fairly fast with every ones help! Then we got all ready, while Dad made a big Breakfast! After we sent the kids out to play on the playground and joined them shortly after! After we had been playing out side a while, I thought I had heard something. Cole heard it too! So we asked Carter if he heard it and he said "Yea! Its the Easter Bunny!" So we quietly crept up to the house to try to sneak up on the Bunny. Carter was determinded to catch him! At the door we found the kids basket and bunny ears! Carter ran inside, and the Bunny was so quick he was already gone! But there were lots of treats and eggs left behind for the kids. Even an Outfit for each!

Chasee also got a purse for Easter and guess what the first thing was she put in it?

Thats right! TAMPONS! What a woman! She knows whats up!

Chasee being shy!

Chasee trying to hit me with her purse!

Also this month, the kids colored a whole wall in our bedroom with every color of permanant Sharpe Marker!! ITs a rainbow of Sharpes!! Now I have to get it primered and re-paint it! Nothing would get it out!! Any magical Idea's?

And On March 7, 2008. Cole and I Celebrated our 5th Anniversary! So wonderful! We went out to eat with my Sister Lindsee and Brandon and their family at OutBack! And then went back to their place and played games with them and Cole's brother and his wife, Shane and Christy! It was a blast! WOW! It's so wonderful to have Cole as my hubby!!

Carter is also Loving School!

Chasee I think is ready for Potty training! Scary thought!

I am Making a Big Gigantic Rag Quilt for our bedroom!

And Cole is as busy as a bee working on the re-modeling at Walmart!

So thats our March in the Short version! Love You all!!!!

"Sick Time" Blah!

2008-03-01T16:06:00.000-08:00

With Carter, everything is "something TIME" so here it is "Sick Time" or "Sad Time" because he is so sick!
Well my house had been under quarenteen! Everyone has been sick at once! First Cole and his injury to his head and neck, and as soon as he was recovering from the injury he got sick for three days!Next it was Chasee! And she still hasn't got over it, then me and luckily I was only down for a day. and now its poor Carter! He was funny today, he had a fever of 104 degrees, I started asking him if there was anything at all he could eat. He said, "Yes". I said, "okay, what do you want to eat?" He answers, "Candy." just as sweet and sick as can be. I just laughed. Then we were giving Cole a list of things to bring home from Wal-Mart of food that Carter would eat. And I asked Carter if there was anything he wanted from the store, and he says, "A TRAIN!" no, sorry! Oh well. So luckly mom is feeling good enough to pamper and baby her babies (knock on wood).

I am positive that nobody wants to see my ugly sick face but oh well, its apart of life!

VALENTINES!!!

2008-02-18T11:47:00.000-08:00

For our Valentines, Cole had to work! Good old Walmart. But that gave me and the kids plenty of time to get the house all ready for dinner :)
The kids were so excited to be able to help with the plans. First we cleaned the house (because I can't function when its messy) and then we made the dinner, bbq chicken and baked potatoes. They loved stiring and seasoning the chicken in the crockpot and then I called Fat Jacks to order some salads because Cole loves their Raspberry Vinagarette! Then was the fun part!! Decorating the Tables! We pulled out the Card table so that the kids could sit on there very own special table. We got out moms SPECIAL Dinner ware from Pier One that have only been used once. Sprinkled the tables with Rose Petals and set up candles, and for the finishing touch, Roses for the center peices!! Carter brought me home the cutest little boquet of Roses he made in preschool so that went on the kids table and then the roses Cole brought me earlier that day for ours! Once we had it all set (which I must say I was very pleased) we lit the candles and turned out the lights and waited for dad to come home on break! Carter was so funny because he met Cole at the door and yelled "Ta Da!!"
It was so much fun and the kids absolutely loved it! They swapped gifts and felt so special because of the whole set up! I told them to get used to dating each other because They will be doing it till they are 16!
HOPE EVERY ONE HAD AN EXCELLENT VALENTINES!!

A couple of Artists!!

2008-02-06T15:01:00.000-08:00

My kids absolutely love to color and paint and cut and glue and anything else creative or artistic!! Carter is especially good at keeping it all on paper! Chasee... uh, not so much! Instead she prefers, the walls, floors, my kitchen table and of course her body!!! Luckily I have been able to get it out of every thing, but her body, that may take a while, its kind of permanant marker!! (and its not just her face and leg.)

Hinckley Challenge!

2008-02-05T18:28:00.000-08:00

Hey All, I don't know if you have heard of this yet, but going around is the Hinckley Challenge. We all know that President Hinckley was so big on us reading the Book of Mormon, and said that he didn't think we used it enough, So to honor him, They are proposing a challenge to read the Book of Mormon in 97 days! Because he was 97 when he died. It only averages 5.5 pages a day... WERE IN!!! Are you?!! It started yesterday!

"Our" First Day Of School

2008-01-22T20:09:00.000-08:00

Today was Carter's first day of school! And by that I mean my first day too. I was a proud Mama! A little nervous about him riding the bus all the way to Manti, but I survived, as did he.
He was so excited to go! Especially for the bus ride. And when he came home I was so excited to hear about how his day went. I guess the little tike was so worn out he fell asleep on the bus. So when he came off it he was a little confused at where he was. It was pretty funny. Sad too because I didn't get all that excitedment, but when the bus drove off he started yelling. He was mad it was leaving with out him. So I took it as a really good sign!

And afterwards a snack!

Happy Birthday Carter!! ... and a cake gone ugly

2008-01-20T21:37:00.000-08:00

Carters Birthday is always so much fun because he is our New Years Baby!! And for me every New Years is so much more significant to me.

Someone once told me that they had a birthday on New Years and his parents had him believing for a whole ten years that the Whole World celebrated his birthday! So thats the goal, Ha ha!

Every birthday I make a "special" cake for the kids and for some reason this one took a turn for the ugly! But its Thomas the Train and he LOVED it! So I guess thats all that really matters. Hey it tasted yummy!

Boy, I wish I had that Winning Smile!

2008-01-20T21:23:00.000-08:00

TROUBLE TROUBLE TROUBLE!!
This girl gets into more trouble than I have ever heard of! And yet she thinks that its okay because of that winning smile of hers. And the sad thing is, is its partially true!

Having kids is great!

2008-01-11T19:09:00.000-08:00

Hey so I was substituting over at the Middle School this week and thought I would pop in on an old teacher of mine, to give him crap and make him feel old because I am now subbing. But we had a fun little chat.
He mentioned how he would see me and the kids and the games and I had some cute kids. Which of course I completely agreed and said, Ya they are, I like them. And he said, "Aren't having kids so great"! I totally agreed. And added that most all of my friends still tell me I got married too young and had kids too soon. But that is not true at all! I wouldn't change it for a second! I love that I got married when I did and I think having my kids when we did was the greatest thing ever (for me)!! They bring so much joy to my life!! This teacher continued saying "You know, Being a kid is great! But having your own kids is so much better!!" !!!! So here it is to say and to Spread to every one!! Because for me it is the honest truth!

"Being a Kid is Great! But Having Kids is So Much BETTER!!"

Marshmellow Wars

2008-01-07T18:11:00.000-08:00

No this is not food all over its Blood!! And this is after I had helped her and cleaned most of it up!!
Grandpa and Grandma Moore gave Carter a Marshmellow Blow-gun(which might I add is the coolest weapon ever) for his birthday this year. While Carter was pelting everyone and every thing insight, Chasee would run around and eat the marshmellows after they had been launched! They were having so much fun and were as wild as can be when the marshmellows had run out! Chasee yelled, "More!" and ran towards me with the bowl to refill it, as she was running she tripped over a pillow that had been used as a shield earlier and fell right onto the bowl!
She cut that thing that holds your lips to your gums and her teeth cut into her lips also. BLOOD EVERY WHERE! And sure she is now screaming but its not so much over the pain and bleeding as it is "MORE MARSHMELLOWS!!"

A Romantic Flash-lit Dinner

2008-01-06T18:45:00.000-08:00

For dinner tonight Cole made BBQ ribs, a perfect meal anyone would pay money for ;) About halfway through dinner Carter got down to use the bathroom and then came out with something in his hands and started turning all the lights off in the house! We had no idea why but he did. Last he turned off the kitchen light and said, "Oh no! Its Dark!" And I said, "Oh no!" Carter then turned on the flash light in his hand and said,"Here you go mommy, Here you go daddy," And we just busted up laughing. Then one of us mentioned all we need now is some singing. And then we heard..."Twinkle Twinkle little star..." and Carter is pointing and swirling the flashlight across the ceilling. It was Perfect!! So we finished our dinners singing songs in the dark and following that we had our Family Home evening (in the dark)! Definately a night to remember!!

Preschools Pre-screening Test

2008-01-06T08:47:00.000-08:00

Okay as most know the pre-screening test is the test you take your kids to to see if they get to go to preschool for free. I have been so excited to get Carter in just knowing he was a shoe in... In fact anyone who got caught working with Carter the last month or so, got in trouble. Like with the whole, "how old are you?" and stuff like that, it needed to wait till after his test! I know, I know, I am a horrible parent, not teaching my kid, just to get him into preschool for free. Oh well,
Anyway first thing they did when we walked in the door was ask him, "Whats your name" and he says, "Carter". My mouth immediately dropped. The first and only time he answers that question right! So here this test is like an hour and a half long and the whole time I am cussing in the back of my head thinking, "How the Crap does he know all this!" I mean never for a second did I think my kid was dumb but come on he just barely turned three! Well The boy completely and totally shocked me. He is sooo much smarter than he lets on, and, I am afraid I will be paying for preschool. Therefore he will have to wait one more year. Haha!

Here we are. Now this is my first time blogging, so bear with me becuase it is sketchy...

Things are going good for us here in little E-town. Carter is now 3, and Chasee 1 1/2. Both such busy bodies, especially together.

Cole has been busy as always doing the whole work and school thing, and he is actually looking into other options for work in Ogden. Which could be a fun, new experience. We will have to see what happens.

I get to stay at home with the kids which is lots of fun on top of all the chaos. The kids keep me running. And the house somehow magically is never clean even though I am always cleaning. But all mom's can relate, I am sure. And when I do get a spare moment for myself, which happens once in a random while, I get busy with a craft for the house or some one elses, and of course I love making jewelry.

So for now, that is us.
