Friends

Alan and I are so very greatful for the friends that we have. They are all so amazing. I can't believe how close we are even though we never get to see eachother. I loved hanging out with Ashley, Jay and Topher yesterday it was a great day because of it. Teancum asked were Topher was all day yesterday after they left I think he has made a great friend.

Alan had his interview today with the school he thinks it went well we will see soon. He also start work at WALMART today. We are trying to get him moved into his parents house. We will post some pictures of our adverture soon.

Back to school back to school to prove to my dad that I am not a fool. Well it is official Alan is going back to school in the spring. SUU here we come. He is also moving to cedar this weekend to start working and finding us a nice place to live. I am so excited to be back in cedar. Teancum can't wait until we get there because he says he is going to school too. so hopefully we can find a preschool that will take him. I will post more later love you all. Thank you all so much for your continued prayers and well wishes.

Pictures

here are a few pictures I have been meaning to post for awhile they are in no particular order.


Teancum was so tired he fell asleep while eating his Jell-o it was so funny.


He was crashing his plane into his aunt shelley.


His aunts Britney and Shelley where tickle torturing him and blowing raspberries on his tummy.

Teancum got this awesome scooter for his birthday from his Grandmas and he Loves it he rides all the time.

He also loves his Helmet he got and wheres it even when he is not on the scooter.

this has got to be one of my favorites we are trying to potty train and he is reading a book while he is on the pot it cracks me up.

This was our room in salt lake when we went for Jeanette's Baby shower it was so much fun to stay in a hotel.

Teancum was so cute he loved this trip to the temple.

I have no Idea what is on his face in this picture but he looks a lot like Niko in it.

This is the before

and this is the after he looks so pleased with himself

this it the cake I decorated for his birthday.

this is Teancum sitting in the wagon his daddy made for him while playing with all his other presents.

4th of July

This fourth of July weekend was so much fun! My Aunt Melanie and Uncle Jim came up from nephi to see us all and we had so much fun together. On the 3rd mom, Melanie, Britney and I went to the play seven brides for seven brothers and had such a good time even after I fell during intermission and sprained my arm. I am okay just really sore. then on the 4Th while Britney, Alan, Teancum and I went to the parade The "grown ups" went on a fun adventure I am glad I missed out on. The parade was so fun it started off with a fly over that was really cool. Teancum loved it we were all standing in the street and he doesn't get to do that ever so it was a treat for him. We were able to get really good seats for the parade even though we were got there later than most. we were right on the street it was great.


there were lots of cool cars and tractors.





Teancum is waving at Smokey the the bear.

Teancum waved at everything and everyone he thought it was all for him it was so cute he loved it.

this float was so cute Teancum loved the Dinosaurs

This is a four wheeler under this there was a couple of them it was really cool.

this is a unicycling dinosaur we thought for sure would fall on us he was going so fast.

This is by far the coolest thing I have ever seen a drill team do they did a whole routine on unicycles and they were so in sync it was amazing.


This is a video of teancum dancing to the middle school band it was so stinkin funny.

This was the end of the parade and the only horses.

potty training

I am not patient enough for this. Teancum wants to go potty in the toilet only when it is convenient for him. So today I tried a different tactic. I put him in "big boy" underwear (which he loved) and kept him confined to the kitchen where his new potty chair was. he did really well at first and then he got to playing and would forget to use the chair. one time he was playing and then got a funny look on his face and he ran to the potty pulling his underwear down as we went. Sad to say he didn't Quite make it but he at least tried and I was very proud of him for that. I am sure there are a few of you who don't care about this but that is whats going on at our house right now trying to get Teancum to use the potty every time not just whenever the mood strikes him. if anyone has any suggestions to help me that would be awesome we have tried sticker charts and giving him a reward but he just dosen't care enough to go every time.

Memorial Day

As I was cleaning today I found an old picture of me with my grandpa Monroe. He was the Grandpa that gave me my first pickle and my first chicken bone. I miss him so much. Every time I Drive past Scipio I have a sad moment when I don't get off on that exit. He was an amazing man that I want my sons to be like he always did his best in every calling that he held. He tried to teach me how to drive a stick shift (I still can't quite do it). He was so entertaining with his silly songs and antics that always made us laugh oh how I miss him and wait for the day when we will be reunited on the other side. I only hope I can live my life in a way that he would be proud of.

camping

The boys went camping for the priesthood commemoration AKA fathers and sons. They had such a good time Teancum keeps asking if he can go camping again.
