our anniversary

on Wednesday the 17th was our 3 year anniversary!!! Wes sent me red roses with a white Calla Lilly(that's what my bridal bouquet was made of... i was extremely impressed that he remembered) that's when i found out that he got us a Jacuzzi tub and a private concert to Diamond Rio ( i wasn't really sure what that was but it is a concert with about 150 people) IT WAS SOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!!!! i lost all my money but Wes was a bit more lucky and won some money at black jack. it was a GREAT anniversary. Avah got to spend the weekend with grandma and grandpa McGuire and was SPOILED ROTTEN they went shopping and i swear anything that Avah wanted she got. it was a great weekend and it was so fun to have some alone time with Wes.

Happy Anniversary

i knew i wouldn't have time tomorrow so i thought i would do it tonight.... tomorrow is our 3 year anniversary!!! time has flow by so fast it does not seem like its been 3 years, i want to tell Wes thank you SO MUCH for all that you do for me and for listening to me complain from time to time and throw my "tantrums". Wes is so amazing and i am so grateful for him, he always puts his family first. i look forward to the years and adventures to come. LOVE YOU

Avah and the Potty

this morning avah told me that she wanted to go potty so she went in the bathroom and took her diaper off and i asked her to throw it in the trash, she did not big deal. i asked if she wanted to put on a clean diaper she said "no" so i told her she didnt have to if she would tell me when she had to go potty. i keep asking her if she needs to go potty and she says no (of course). i was doing the dishes and she comes out and stands there and wets on the carpet AHHHHH i clean it up and tell her that if she doesnt go on the toilet than we are going to put a diaper on. so some more time passes she runs out holding her bum saying she needs to go potty (she can get on the potty all by her self using her step stool) a minuet or two later she comes out and has poop on her hands!!!!!! FREAKIN DAY we go in the bathroom and it was all over the toilet seat and her hands BUT... she did go in the potty and she tried to wipe so i tried not to show that i was Frustrated :)we hurried and cleaned the mess and then got her in the bath. i think its funny that before i was a mom i thought it would be so easy and my princess would be mess free and all ways look perfect. hahaha what was i thinking i do not know how some moms do it! i envy the "super mom" and hope that someday i can come close.

ISALAND PARK & WEST YELLOWSTONE

On Wednesday night we left Logan and headed to Idaho Falls to meet up with Wes's parents. we stayed overnight and in the morning we picked up Colten and headed to Island Park to the cabin. Wes, Leon and Colten went fishing at Henry's Fork when we got there and Linda, Avah and I hung out at the cabin. We had SO MUCH FUN, we read books, watched movies (the only kids movie was Shrek 2 so we watched that I swear 50times!!!), made bracelets and hung out. Friday we went to West Yellowstone we didn't see much game. at one point traffic was backed up for i swear a mile or more by the time we got to where the "distraction" was i was a little disappointed that it was just an elk, i was hoping it would be something more exciting. we drove to this place that had a dead end and when we got to the end this boy (about 10years old) with a heavy accent ran up to our car and was So excited that he had just seen a dear, what he thought was a dear was actually a little group of elk, i could not believe how close we were to them. Wes pointed out my window and i screamed because there was a cow elk maybe 5 feet from my window and i didn't see it when we came to a stop. we went to fire hole, the paint pots and Old Faithful. there were some more places we were able to stop but i cant remember what they were called. we had so much fun at West Yellowstone. Saturday morning we got all packed up and got the cabin cleaned up and then Wes, Leon and Colten went fishing on their way home. Linda took Avah and I to my parents house and we were able to hang out with the boys (Jaymin and Bryson)for a while. It was so nice to get home on Saturday and have a day to "recover" before our busy week starts.
