I'm Done!!!

Wahoo!! Celebration!! I am officially done with teaching and with school! I can't believe it! I got done about two weeks ago and I am so happy I held out till the end. It has been a great opportunity for me to teach at Davis High and I taught with some great teachers who I learned a lot from. Of course, I don't get my diploma or teaching liciense till May 1st at graduation, but, it feels good to just stay..I'm done! Last week I had a lot to catch up on but I couldn't seem to get myself to do much. I just had a weird awakening that "I was a mom" and that was it. I didn't have anything due, or any lesson to plan...I just got to be mom. It has taken a while to get used to that, and still is, but I am just glad I finished and that I got to be mom at the same time! Thanks for everyone's support.

CAUTION!!!

WARNING!! Never leave a child unattended at any moment when surrounded by something the can't have! Could cause danger or even painful laughing to those around them which my lead to severe happiness for both you and the child. It may cause moments such as these, which would require a camera close by at all times. So, please, if you have these things happen, don't be afraid to use the camera...it could help those moments turn into memories! Good Luck!

St. George Weekend


Kurt was planning a biking trip with the boys and I was getting a little jealous I guess because...I really wanted to go! So, I DID. We got a cheap hotel for one night so Paisley and I could have a pool to play in on Saturday. I brought down a bike trailor for Paisley to ride in for a bike ride. And, of course, we did a little shopping. Teh boys went out biking all day and us girls (Paisley and I) had our first mother-daughter vacation. She won't remember, but I will. It is just what we needed and we had a great time. My advise...have a break every once in a while and see some different scenery!

Broken washer, here I come!!

Have you ever tried to fix a washer? Well I found out it wasn't as hard as I thought. I you need anything bad enough, you can figure out how to fix it..we, sort of. And, with the internet, anything is fixable. So, we had a problem with our washer so I decided to take it apart and see if I could fix teh problem. I already knew what the possible problem could be it was getting ot it that I thought was hard. So, I did what I was suppose to. I got the parts, went into an appliance store, and got the part and went home to put it back together. (the looks I got from the people working at the appliance store were very questionable when they say a mom and a baby coming in to ask for parts!?!?!?)
Anyway, I got home and I had forgotten how to put it back together. So, thanks to the internet, I found step by step pictures on how to take apart a washer. It was back together within minutes. I was so excited and proud to try it to see if it worked....and....drum role....IT DIDN'T!! I was so bummed but I was proud I tried. But, this is not over yet..I will conquer and defeat!
Next project...the disposal!

Princess and her Garden

Once upon a time there was a princess who wanted a garden. She has yet to live in this life with a garden so she is excited for this spring to have what she has always wanted. As you can see the princess is already enjoying her first sign of her garden and can't wait for it to get bigger and grow into a large garden with many vegtables as well. She has already found one of the flowers and enjoyed picking it to pieces to see what it is all about. Nothing like coming into a new world and picking it apart!
