In Rut Stuck in A Rut

Life's Simple Pleasures
I think at times we forget that:
"life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, its about learning to dance in the rain"
About "Finding the Joy in the Journey"
About "These are the days we will remember forever"
Sometime I need to remember that all of these thing are important and I need to learn to remember these days will not be forever so it is ok to:

planting pea's

About how you look in a picture

How dirty your mug was


How many yummy cupcakes
you eat or made
How your clothes fit or
how they looked
To have no place to go or
no worries
About not having to worry
if you have sand stuck to your
buggers

About how much sand got in
your crack and how great it
is to just lounge in the sand
When you didn't need to worry
how your butt looked in stretchy pants


I am in a Rut Stuck in A Rut. I was reading my Friend Brianna's Blog http://www.nateandbrianna.blogspot.com/ and it is so funny because we are so much alike sometimes it is scary. I have been feeling the same way lately and I think partly it is because I am so sick of this cold weather and Dax wants to be outside every minute of daylight and I feel so bad sometimes because it is so cold some day's for Logan that we can't be outside as much as we would all love to be or I get home from work and need to make dinner there always seems to be something but I am going to change that because I read this other day and it made me think.


I hope my children will look back on today and
see a mother who had time to play. There will be years
for cleaning and cooking. But children grow
up while we're not looking. Dusting and scrubbing
can wait 'till tomorrow. For babies grow fast we learn
to our sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs and dust go
to sleep. I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.

Someday I'll jump through puddles, take a stroll or run a race,Someday I'll walk across the street, or maybe walk in space,Someday I'll scale a mountain, or join a ballet corps,Someday I'll walk a tightrope, or explore the ocean floor,Someday these feet will do some things that only heaven knows,But for today they're happy just to wiggle all their toes.

Also I don't challenge myself as much as I could. I have this really awesome SLR Digital camera that my cute hubby gave me and I love it I love taken pictures, I have the photo shop stuff, classes to take and more but I don't do anything about it. Sometimes I just need a kick in the Butt!

So I need to get UN stuck from this Rut so lets Do something about it, the Rut stuck in a Rut!

Some Much Needed Sun Shine









So this last weekend we headed down to Sunny St George, for some much needed R & R ha ha. We headed down there for some much needed Sun Shine know that makes more sense when you have two little kiddos.





The weather was perfect we could have not asked for better, Friday we just hit the outlets (that have gone way down hill) and then later that night we went to good old Fiesta Fun and had a great time riding the Go Karts and the Bumper boats. Saturday we headed out to sand mountain ( I can remember the right name) but it was a blast playin' in the sun and sand.









After we got all the sand out of our cracks, we headed down town to the yummy place to eat with extra yummy cupcakes mmm, Just a block down there was a park with water spouts and a little river it was so cute and the kids loved it. We all got a little more sun that planned but who cares it was SUN.

Then on Sunday we headed back hear to the snow...
but it was so worth the sun, Thanks Mom and Dad for the idea and it was fun to see you Heidi and Shawn enjoy the 70's (weather). Enjoy all the pictures thanks to Danny, dummy me forgot my camera in the hotel everyday.

1 Year

Well my baby is now 1 years old as of Monday, it went by so fast, we just want to let her know how much we love her and we are glad she is in our family. I know it sounds stupid but I don't want my baby girl to get older. It seams like I just had her time flies by. Well Logan had a great birthday thanks to everyone who came and also we missed those who couldn't come. Logan is a little monster (in a good way) she is into everything, walks, wants to run, is very bossy to her brother, loves her shoes and food. She weights in at a whopped 22lbs and 32in., Dax did not weight 22lbs until he was 18months. Here are some pictures of Logan throught the year and at her Birthday. Happy Birthday Baby Girl!
