Bryan and I are really excited to announce a new addition to our family and I don't even have to change the name of my blog. My life is still going to be Life with Guys! Baby boy #3 will join our family near January 5th 2012. I was a little sad we were not going to be able to go buy all the fun pink stuff but I know we'll love this little guy more than anything! Here he is so far!

Because of his heart conidition that he had, it's been difficult for him and we're working on it. Well last night we decided to try and force him use the push toy, hippo. It took about two times with real help and then he was all over it. He cried when we finally had to put it away.<br /><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzGdHVEwUxUK4qtUnBNDp7s8gXV9wTEvgLLSlNpbA55fxheQxgxbUk2yZeaki_b7AdGV4tims7yJamtZVHtPQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-82608594673986396482009-03-10T09:51:00.002-06:002009-03-10T09:53:11.132-06:00SorryI am so bad about blogging these days. My mind has been somewhere else. As silly as it may seem I can't stop thinking about Pampered Chef. I am so excited to get started up and going again. I appreciate everyone that has been willing to do a show for me and would LOVE to get a ton more of you to do one for me too! So let me know!<br />I am doing my Grand Opening on March 25th and we're going to have decidant brownies and a yummy pizza, so if you aren't busy please stop by for a minute at least to enjoy some yummy food and see what's new!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-56092038828888492682009-02-11T10:31:00.002-07:002009-02-11T10:34:48.315-07:0030 and Fabulous!Well ok not really. I just am totally happy I'm 30 today. I have no problem with it. I keep saying 30 is going to be my year. I'm going to be happier and healthier than ever before! We'll see. I guess considering some of things I've been through in the last few years I just feel like I do know who I am. Guess it's kinda sad it's taken me 30 years but I have no doubts about me or my beliefs anymore. I feel like I'm more tolerant of others but I am unwavering in my faith and my desire to do good. I'm happy to have my husband of 9 years by my side. He is so understanding and forgiving and I know I would never be treated so well by another man. I am lucky to have two wonderful boys who bring a lot of learning, especially about patience BUT also a lot of joy into my life. I never thought I'd be satisfied being a mother.<br /><br />So out of my 20's I pass and into a brighter new year!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-79007642039534165192009-02-05T23:26:00.002-07:002009-02-05T23:26:55.999-07:00Scrappy FriendsI realize that not too many people actually read my blog but I just wanted to let everyone know that I am moving my scrapbook forum.

We are doing one card per week to help motivate us with goals. Mine is full of quotes about being positive about myself. It helps me to find some great things to live by. Sorry here are a bunch together but from now on it will be just one a week. I am doing the front and back of the card, I cut them to card size (2 1/2 x 3 1/2) instead of altering playing cards, but you could do either. It's fun and I like making these little creations so much I may have to come up with more to do! </div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299068238169761586" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 181px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoSfKip5zI/AAAAAAAAAiM/kftvtsAvQOE/s200/52+Pick+Up+001.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299068245902257570" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 163px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoSfnWObaI/AAAAAAAAAiU/e7WZfeOsPnw/s200/52+Pick+Up+002.jpg" border="0" /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTmQ0TUpI/AAAAAAAAAjk/ZF8F_XZ0rJE/s1600-h/52+Pick+Up+010.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069459625104018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTmQ0TUpI/AAAAAAAAAjk/ZF8F_XZ0rJE/s200/52+Pick+Up+010.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTmDSoSnI/AAAAAAAAAjc/774yeqdaTkI/s1600-h/52+Pick+Up+009.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069455994210930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 156px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTmDSoSnI/AAAAAAAAAjc/774yeqdaTkI/s200/52+Pick+Up+009.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTNXorMvI/AAAAAAAAAjU/82IAU_Z2EEo/s1600-h/52+Pick+Up+012.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069031958655730" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 149px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTNXorMvI/AAAAAAAAAjU/82IAU_Z2EEo/s200/52+Pick+Up+012.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTNBP_QpI/AAAAAAAAAjM/fahuEAvceM8/s1600-h/52+Pick+Up+011.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069025949532818" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTNBP_QpI/AAAAAAAAAjM/fahuEAvceM8/s200/52+Pick+Up+011.jpg" border="0" /></a> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069023000289330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 178px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTM2Q1YDI/AAAAAAAAAjE/FUCLdVF-sl0/s200/52+Pick+Up+008.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069015842562050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 161px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTMbmTIAI/AAAAAAAAAi8/L0XqXYqHWK8/s200/52+Pick+Up+007.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299069014214580018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 153px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoTMViKFzI/AAAAAAAAAi0/UDD5Rg6KZw0/s200/52+Pick+Up+006.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299068274733971538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 152px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoShSwPeFI/AAAAAAAAAis/yrXMPJ27ilY/s200/52+Pick+Up+005.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299068261855181618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 151px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoSgixsuzI/AAAAAAAAAik/0Wdt432RHqc/s200/52+Pick+Up+004.jpg" border="0" /> <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5299070607404988914" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 148px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SYoUpEoWefI/AAAAAAAAAjs/IWLJbL4UIco/s200/52+Pick+Up+003.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-70727965710059449032009-01-19T13:13:00.004-07:002009-01-19T13:28:07.057-07:00Another Sketch and pageI did the most recent sketch over at <a href="http://creativelyyours.wordpress.com/">Creatively Yours</a>. I added the sketch turned here so you could see how it fit my interpretation. That's the thing I love about using sketches to scrapbook. It's so very versatile. You can turn them and flip them and add whatever you want. I love having sketches as a "springboard" to designing my own pages. Also we are doing an All About Me challenge album at <a href="http://neverbeenkissedscrappers.ning.com/">Never Been Kissed Scrappers</a>, so this is my first page for that!

He's been my nurse after several surgeries and after giving birth to two children. He has been my confidante when no one else could listen. He's my rock when I'm weak. He's my personal religious consultant.<br /><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SUkk4JVCNhI/AAAAAAAAAhQ/iuQx0bk_v6I/s1600-h/wedding+003.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280792585064035858" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 164px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SUkk4JVCNhI/AAAAAAAAAhQ/iuQx0bk_v6I/s200/wedding+003.jpg" border="0" /></a> He's an incredible father to two boys who love him so much and both squeal when "daddy" walks through the door. He has stood by me in both good and bad times and I feel so lucky for it all! I love him so much and would do anything for him. He's my best friend and my eternal companion.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SUkk3-kXf0I/AAAAAAAAAhI/TJWxHM_Pjjs/s1600-h/wedding+002.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5280792582175555394" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 164px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SUkk3-kXf0I/AAAAAAAAAhI/TJWxHM_Pjjs/s200/wedding+002.jpg" border="0" /></a> I have rarely seen a man look at a woman they way Bryan looks at me. I use to never be able to appreciate this but have learned to love it and even look for it on occasion. After 9 years together I don't imagine I could feel any happier.

We find this all inclusive kit at Wal Mart...so here you have it. Dad did most of the work and Q was insistant that it look exactly like the picture on the box, but we gave up on that idea half way through. He loved how it turned out and looked at it lovingly for about 5 min then said..."Ok let's eat it!" </div></div></div></div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-70998870562781956952008-12-01T13:21:00.002-07:002008-12-01T13:25:55.016-07:00There are days...Ya know when there are just some days when things hit you. HARD! Today has been one of those for me. I just have had some things come back into my mind that have been hard to deal with. I just want to say I am so sorry for all the dumb things I've done in my life and yet I am so blessed to have such a great family around me. I am so blessed to have a husband who loves me and is so devoted. He's so great. I love my boys and the joy they bring to me, even when they are turkeys. I am amazed whenever I think about my Savior Jesus Christ and what he has done for me in this life and for each and every person. Even though I've had heartache, lost friends and made new ones, all in all I feel so blessed. I just want all my family to know how much I love them. And my hubby to know how amazed I am by him. I'm more in love with him every day. I am so happy that we have the chance to be together forever. I know there are many cousins, friends etc who have gone or are going through some tough times right now and I just want you to know that I pray for each of you often. I love all Bryan's cousins like my own, well I see them more actually! Thanks for letting me be me and all the love you give.

I would not love myself for who I am and I would not ever have the encouragement to go on and lose weight and do my scrapbooking etc. </div><div>So here's my work I did I hope you enjoy it. </div><div>And I love you so much Michelle and Kristy.</div></div></div>elAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-65119323601499617242008-11-16T00:27:00.002-07:002008-11-16T00:30:56.624-07:00Hmmmm....Doritos!<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SR_MKt0x3oI/AAAAAAAAAds/ylwSgOEk1ho/s1600-h/doritos.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5269154573518495362" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 160px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 160px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NocmTkyq-7E/SR_MKt0x3oI/AAAAAAAAAds/ylwSgOEk1ho/s200/doritos.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>We all love Doritos right?!

He helps with the kids, he plays with them, he reads to them, he tickles them til they pee! I just love him so much. I know I have often taken him for granted but I am so happy to be with a wonderful, forgiving, understanding man. I am so glad he didn't kick me to the curb every time I made a bad choice. He is just so great. I just felt like I needed to express my love for my dear sweet Bryan today!

If you hand't noticed Dr. Pepper is consistently more expensive than other sodas in the store. So we decided we'd try the Wal Mart brand. Dr. Thunder. Ok I wouldn't lie to you but it tastes EXACTLY the same. It is $.87 for a 2 liter vs $1.98 for the real deal! Also they have Twist Up (Sprite, which I actually like better than real Sprite) and root beer etc. So if you are a soda junkie such as myself it's waaaay cheaper!<br /><br />Oh and check out my scrapbook blog for any scrappers out there.<br /><a href="http://www.nbkscrappers.blogspot.com/">http://www.nbkscrappers.blogspot.com/</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-456361874556277087.post-91730016151645011132008-11-07T08:36:00.002-07:002008-11-07T08:41:00.511-07:00Scrapbook SiteFor the 5 of you who actually look at my blog I just wanted to advertise briefly a little scrapbook site I have created. I am pretty excited about it and would love to have it grow. Honestly it's very small and simple so far. It is not a store just a forum and a place to list photos and talk. It's called <a href="http://neverbeenkissedscrappers.ning.com/">Never Been Kissed Scrappers</a>. Why you ask? Well because I am wanting to have a DT call and contests that will allow those who have never been on a DT or just can't seem to win all those popular contests out there a chance. It will look good on a scrapbook resume if you're on a DT and I know there are tons and tons of talented scrappers out there that have never been recognized. Like me! Ok just kidding on that! Please join me on the site and look for the DT call that will be coming up on the Pub Calls Blog soon!<br /><br />Thanks to all of you have joined us already!
