A little of this, a little of that

we've been tyring to keep our selves busy the last few weeks,, with the weather being nice one day and then not the next. Poor Hadley all she wants to do is play outside.. WE have had a few visitors and have loved playing with them. Kyli graduated on the 25 of may and got the best gift ever... Casi came out from Baton Rouge and brought our niece Nya and nephew Shamar with her, it's been like 2 or 3 years since we've seem them so its been so fun having them here. We all new for a while they were coming so we had to not spill the beans and tell her (which we almost did a few times).. so here's a few pictures to show whats been going on

Good Old Cache Valley

SO life has been pretty boring up here in the good old Smithfield until this last weekend. we've been spending lots of time at home but with all this space Hadley is loving being able to run all over the place and i love that there is a place to put her toys without tripping over them... here are a few:) pictures of the fun we've been having

our first Sunday in our new (and my old) ward. Hadley wouldn't hold still so i could take a picture of just her so there you go
She is OBSESSED with the slide good thing this one stays in the house or we'd never get her inside

don't mind the sandals and socks.. that would be daddy's dressing

any way she can go down she does

another must have for Hadley lately is a purse, she drags mine all over the house so we go out one for her

and who doesn't love grocery shopping.. Hadley pushes her shopping cart all over

Aunt Kyli has been over bunches and the other day she wanted to make melty mints so we did

tasting our handy work

way to many mints,,, i have a bag in the frig still

Hadley was suppose to be asleep and we hear,, stuck stuck stuck and this is how we found her

We ventured over to the good old American West Heritage Center for baby animal day with Ben's friend Cody and his daughter Ava.. the girls had so much fun,, Hadley was a little timid with the bigger animals but Ava wanted to touch and kiss everyone of them.. Hadley's favorite were the baby chicks

Ava holding the chick

the baby ducks were my favorite

riding the train

see isn't he so cute

the white peacock,,, Hadley and Ava chased it all around the farm house

Hadley hated the bunny, the second it was set in my hands she pushed it away and said no

so scared of the cow's

petting the horses

watching the piggies

this picture made me laugh Ben and Cody had the same pose and so did the girls... like father like daughter . and you couldn't find two girls that look more like there daddies then these two

and last but definitely not least family game night,,, thanks to kyli we all had a great night... she was the winner just by writing down one word.... "M"...

she was so embarrassed that she kept her face hidden

mom and dad laughing... really i couldn't breathe.... loved it

Where We're livin

For now anyways... and don't judge i'm still unpacking and organizing and with us only being here for 2 months not everythings getting put up.. but the space is nice

in need of a vacation

so here i am sitting at my parents house for the 7Th straight day,,,, moving sucks and what sucks worse is when people (who will remain nameless)break your couch when you move and not having a frig... i usually don't use my blog for personal venting but seeing's how most people that know me know that this move was not what i wanted to do i will take this opportunity to vent my anger so it doesn't get put onto my husband and child.....

I HATE Logan,, HATE HATE HATE it!@!!! i don't want to live here i want to go home. It literally brings me to tears every single time the realization that i live here comes into my brain.. I've heard over and over that it'll get better, I'll like living by family, and you'll be happy. But for now I'm just trying not to let the grips of depression swallow me whole... I've been trying to keep busy organizing and cleaning but doing that leaves me alone in an empty house with only my thoughts. why does life have to change? why does it throw you such big curve balls???? and why in the mist of being surrounded by family and friends can you feel more alone then you ever have??? All and all you an say today is a bad day and its not looking up

so here we sit still not completely moved in waiting (till tomorrow) for comcast to come so we will have TV and Internet so we can stay at the new house with out loosing our sanity and actually sleep in our new but temporary home.. pictures to come soon.

Prayers

A friend of mine from way back when just found out her little 2 year old son has a brain tumor on his brain stem. After more testing they discovered it was cancer and because of the location they can't operate, they will do radiation to give them as much time with him as possible .. please keep them in your prayers...

Little Miss

poor Hadley has been stuck in the house the last few weeks while i try to pack up our house so we have been trying to entertain her the best we can.. she is such an outside girl its not even funny, every morning when we come down the stairs for breakfast the first thin she says is -outside- and i continue to hear it all day... here are a few pictures of what we've been up toit was freezing outside and still she wanted to go for a walk.. and this is what Ben did to keep her warm

i was cleaning out Ben's law books and she decided it was a good hiding spot

wanting to go outside, even in the rain

playing in the rain,, she screamed when i brought her inside

coloring,, she loves to color.. and i love to see her color

this is what i got when i tried to take pictures of her new haircut,, you'd of thought i beat her

the best pic i could get of her cute new hair cut

trying out a headband,, she actually kept it on

(this was us on our way to see our almost puppy)

Easter Came Early

We were in Logan a couple of weeks ago and i decided that i wanted to dye Easter eggs.. Yes i know I'm about 2 months early but we will be moving right around Easter and since my house is already tore up i don't think i will be wanting to do it then. Plus i don't eat hard boiled eggs so i figured we could do it when we were in Logan and there were people around that would like to dye them with us (Kyli and her cute friends) and eat them... We ended up doing them later then i had planned so Hadley didn't want much to do with them, she hadn't napped well all day or slept well the night before so she just wanted to throw them and when i wouldn't let her she just wanted to cuddle with her dad and her blanket.. it was fun non the less... I'm glad i got a little Easter fun in before the move..

Kyli and her cute friends

not at all interested in it

trying to throw/drop them in

Haddy's turn, but she didn't care.. there's always next year

snuggles with dad,,, she was not a good sleeper this weekend

Friday night we got out a box with a bunch of our old bows and headbands in it and hadley had a blast play with them, she wouldn't take this one off, i had a matching one on to for a while.. i love my peanut

playing with mom

measure measure measure

all our colors

sitting with dad... there is a smile under that Binky, she just wouldn't take it out

It's Official.. .

Officially bad news for me and the best for Ben. We are moving to Logan (insert sad face) After months of back and forth on to go or not to go we're going. We will be moving the first of April.. So if anyone has boxes send them my way...
