Favorite F!

ah... this was a hard one... I really love a lot of F things... but, I am going with.... FAMILY!

I have the best little family ever. My hubby is everything I want in a spouse.. he is my best friend.. an amazing father.. and a great provider. He amazes me with his testimony. He has great faith and is a great example to his little kiddos. I can't ever imagine my life without this hunky man. I love him more than chocolate milk.
Each of my kids are so special and bring me such joy. It's crazy how different they are and how much they each add to our family. I love these little bugs.
I also have a wonderful Dad, loving Mom, amazing brothers and my sister is fabulous! :)

Other funky F's I love: FOOD! Friends, Freedom, Faith, Finished basements, Fall, Fords, Flip flops and fireplaces...

and my favorite E is...

EBAY!! I am totally addicted... besides all of the great deals I have found... I sell my scrapbook pages on there and it's a great way to make money from home... I have found the best stuff... 7 pairs of new elastic waist jeans for Kendyl... $12.00.... brand new school shoes for K $5.00... selling my pages for big $$... I love it!






Other Excellent E's Earings, Easter, Eclipse, Excalibur{the hotel in Vegas...} and Elastic lace (hello! I have 3 girls... they always have a headband on...)

D is for Dancing...

"Shake what your momma gave you!" that's my motto. Well, one of many. I LOVE to watch my kids shake it... I love dancing with my hubby... I remember going to a valentines party when we were dating--it was for a friends ward-- and we were one of three young couples.. it was all "old" couples {probably my age now...} and we danced the night away... it was so fun... I love taking Kendyl to her ballet classes... I love the "recitals" in our living room the girls give... I love watching my parents dance... Kendyl and I have "dance offs" in the car sometimes-- we try to one up each other, DANG, she's good! Stephen dances with his girls with the music on FULL blast.. it's adorable... I love dancing with the stars... & So you think you can dance...





Other delightful D's: Daughters, Dads, Dates, Daisies, Dress up, Diapers.. just kidding, Drifters{yummy candy bar in England}and Dounuts... hey, my husband's a cop...

and my favorite C is....

Cuddlebugs!! hello... is there anything that really can compare to a great cuddle? I don't think so... I love the sticky ones... the goodnight-half asleep ones... the I am sorry-- I won't ever do that again, ones... the I really missed you ones... the--don't let me go momma ones...

I just can't get enough of them. And really--- I get sick when I think of how fast time flies and how quickly they will be saying..."not in front of my friends mom!!" or "you're squishing me mom--let go!" {OK, I admit they say that one already sometimes :)} It is all happening so fast I just want to hold on to them and never let go....

Other fabulous C's: Church, Cookies, Christmas, Chocolate, Chubby babies :), Cousins,Chad Marvin & Cameras.

my favorite B

Well, without question my favorite B.... is my B! Bradley. This little big man is such a sweetie. One of my favorite memories of him was a couple of years ago I asked him what he wanted to do when he grew up and he said " I want to just have a job with my daddy as a policeman so I can protect all of my girls... I will make sure you guys are safe mom!" It was precious! And he still says it to this day. He is very protective of his "girls". Everyday, when Stephen goes to work he will tell B to take care of his girls and be a big man... boy, he takes his job very seriously.

Brad is my cowboy... as most people know, he loves John Wayne and a good cowboy movie. He knows Silverado by heart. He will wrestle anyone! He loves superheros as well. This Halloween will be difficult for him to chose which road to follow... it's a toss up between Batman, a pirate and a cowboy... I don't know how he will be able to chose just one... he is a really tough guy with a big heart. I love him to pieces. One of my FAVORITE things in the world is to lay on the couch and B will lay on my legs... he knows I love it and will rush over and snuggle right on top of me. He is a great snuggle bug. I dread the time when he will grow out of that stage... He is also quite the comedian. He loves to trick people and say funny things. One of his favorite words {because of Stephen and my reaction to it} is -precisely. He will say it then just rumble this cute little belly laugh. I could eat him up. That's my favorite B.

some of my other favorite B's: Blankets {really heavy ones...}, Bubble baths, Babies and Books... {just finished Twilight...}

a new meme...

OK... I am starting a new meme that I saw on another fellow blog.... It's an alphabet one... you don't necessarily need to be tagged... it's just something fun to do if you're up to it! Each day you take a letter from the alphabet {in order...} and write a post about it... let's see how this goes... I don't post everyday, so I'm not sure how long it will take for me to finish this. But, I am up for the challenge... I love this stuff!


What I love about A

My Avery is my favorite A! AveryAnne is such a charming little bug! I keep telling Stephen that I think she's going to be our family clown... she is coming up with funny little quirky things everyday. At the moment she loves to tell us "just kiddin" when she does something that could get her in trouble... And she is never without a princess dress or some jewelry or moms high heels or something... she loves a good dress up! Actually, she changes about 7 times a day... one dress just isn't enough! She has a little best friend that she loves to play with, Maddie. The two of them are really cute. She tells people "that's MY maddie!" I love Av's upper arms... I could snuggle and pinch and kiss them all day... she knows this and let's me get my "fix" whenever I need it. I love this girl so much... she is amazing. And overwhelmingly yummy too...

Other A's that I love: Autumn, All my memories and Artichokes.

look at these handsome cowboys...

This is Brads little buddy, Derek. They are crack ups together... two peas in a pod. The other day when they saw each other they ran to each other and put eachother in a headlock... it was their way of giving a hug and saying hi... then it naturally ended up on the floor with a wrestling match... they are funny guys. They went tonight to watch some bull riding... hence the wranglers and cowboy hats, handsome-- yes, I know. I could eat 'em.

AAARRRRGGGG!!!

Stephen and Brad were crackin' me up today... nothing makes B happier than fighting with his daddy... And today he was crusin' around in his pirate attire all day just waiting for a good battle with him... I got some pics of the grand event.... aren't my boys cute!

what a yummy girl...

this is just a quick pic of Rylin... I had a garage sale a week ago and Stephen brought me the baby... {we were just a couple of houses down from ours...} and he thought it would be funny to strap her in the toddler car seat... well, she loved it so much... she instantly fell asleep.... what a doll!! I could eat those cheeks all day!!!

flashback to the 80's...

when I saw Kendyl skating in the backyard I had some serious flashbacks of those roller skating parties... with the short shorts... high socks.... and the lace up roller skates.... ah... the memories! :)
