Family Pictures

So we will see if my internet will work long enough to make a new post! I have been out of the internet world and blogging world for quite sometime now, and I really miss it!!! We have had a lot of trouble finding a good interent service and we still haven't found one. But I think we are getting a better connection so I'm crossing my fingers that I will be able to join the blogging world again!!!

It worked!!!!! It worked!!!!!! I'm so happy, I can finally make new posts on my blog, and look at all my friends' and families' blogs!! Yeah!! Hopefully my internet keeps working, and I can continue to update my blog, check my email, my facebook and whatever else I want to do!!!


So anyway, my talented friend Katie was the one who took these beautiful pictures and I love them! They are just what I wanted for our family pictures here in Puerto Rico!!!! Thank you so much Katie for sharing your time and talent!!!

Finally, A New Post!!!

So I have been so out of it lately, for the past 4 months, because I was out of town for the summer and because I had no internet when I got back!! Well I'm finally back and I have a lot to catch up on, but I wanted to post this picture of Fox that I just took the other day!!!
I have been painting our house and when I paint I need Fox to be entertained and unable to reach the paint! I put him on this little bike and he loved it!!!
He pushes the buttons and pushes himself back word, he hasn't quite figured out how to go forward!! It is so dang cute!!! Hopefully I will be able to do some more posting from my summer experiences, it was so fun being in the states and seeing all of my family!! But I am so happy to be back here with all of my friends!!

My Baby's Crawling!!!

So for a little while I've been expecting Fox to start crawling, but 6 months came and went, nothing, then 7 months came and he was sitting up really good, but no crawling, then 8months and he would bounce on his bum while he was sitting, but still no crawling!! I wasn't too worried since he's my third child I knew he was fine even though he wasn't crawling yet, but still I wondered. Then right before he was 9 months he started kind of scooting and getting on his hands and knees then sitting again but not really crawling, from there he just took off!!! From about 9 months until now, 9 and 1/2 months he has been crawling everywhere and now he pulls himself up on the couch and tries to walk to me!!! It is so crazy how fast he has progressed!!! Now I want him to slow down!! But it is so cute to see him crawling about and going wherever he wants to go!! Unfortunately now I really have to sweep and mop my floors everyday because he is all over them, ugh!!
Notice the top picture he has his tongue sticking out, he always does that now, it is too cute!!!
Look at him go!!!

Yeah he got the toy! When he first started crawling he would do this crawl with one foot and one knee thing, it was really cute!! Now he just does the basic hands and knees crawl, he such a sweet baby!!

My Mom

So of course this is late, because all my posts are late, but I just wanted to tell everyone how awesome my Mom is!! This is a picture of me and my Mom when I was just a squishy newborn. And from the moment I was born until now she has been there for me! She gave birth to and raised 7 children, I was the middle child, and I never felt like I didn't get enough attention from her or that she loved my siblings more than me. She still provides for me, loves me and would do anything for me! I really couldn't ask for a better Mom.
Here are me and all my sisters climbing and wrestling with my Mom, of course she's holding me because I was her favorite, J/K!! But really I know that all of her children are her favorite, and I see how much she loves each one of us!! She is beautiful inside and out, she has such a strong testimony of the church, she loves the great outdoors, she went back to school after having all of us and got her Masters Degree, she's willing to sacrifice anything of hers for someone else, and is also the most fun Grandma (Mema) that my kids could ever want! I love you Mama!!! You are truly a wonderful, amazing, Mother and friend!!!

Haley's New Haircut!

Before, Haley's hair was even longer than this since this picture was taken about 5 months ago, she said people would step on it when she was sitting down! It was getting really long, so it was time for a change!
After, we ended up cutting 7 inches off Haley's hair and after a little bit a debating we cut bangs too!! Haley's been wanting bangs for awhile and I wasn't sure I wanted to deal with them, even though I thought they would look really cute, but I'm glad Haley was persistent, because I think she looks adorable!!!!
Here she is from the back, her hair used to go to her bum!! Don't mind her jammies!!! She loves to wear Sean's t-shirts to sleep in!! I remember me and my sisters wore my Dad's shirts too!!!

Easter and Weston's Birthday!!

So I'm posting these two events together since I should have posted them like a month ago!! I did put some of these on facebook so sorry to those who have already seen them!! But this is Easter morning after the kids got there Easter baskets!! I love the expression on Fox's face !! Don't they look beautiful in their Easter Suday clothes!!
The family in front of our church building, it was a nice hot day that day, as always!
When the kids woke up they found their Easter baskets then they had to find the eggs they had dyed the night before!

They had so much fun coloring the eggs! I think they did a pretty good job!! I love watching my kids enjoy themselves!
Wseton turned 5 on April 6th and we had a great party for him!! Here he is with the presents he got from the family!! We had his party during the day and he opened his presents from us at night after dinner!!
He wanted to go to McDonalds and play and eat with his friends, so we did!!! That is definitely one of Weston's favorite things to do, play and be crazy with his friends!!! I'm so grateful he has so many good friends here!!!
I forgot to take a picture of his cool Lightning McQueen cupcake cake before we dug in, so this is the aftermath of the kids eating and smiling!! It was a good time! And thanks to my friends who came and helped I survived with out having Sean there!!! Happy Birthday my sweet little crazy boy!!!

Johnny Depp Movie!!

So last Friday I was an extra in a Johnny Depp movie called "The Rum Diary", and it was so much fun!!! This is a picture of me and my friends that were in it with me!! From left it is Lisa, Julia, Heather, Brianna, and me!!! They are all in my ward and are awesome girls!
The movie is set in the 1950's so we were able to wear cool dresses and have our hair done up like they did in the 50's! It was so cool to see everyone there all looking like they lived in that time period. It really felt like we had gone back in time! We were in a party/ball scene and did the background for that scene. We were paired up with dates and sent to different areas of the scene and had to interact and pretend like we were talking and enjoying the party. The coolest part was when me and my partner (who was a really nice guy, my friends got stuck with a crazy one) anyway we were coming in to the party and Johnny Depp cut us off trying to get in, so I was like inches away from him acting with him!! It was amazing! I'm pretty sure you will be able to see me in the movie! We did the scene like a hundred times and I thought my feet were going to fall off!! But I even talked to Johnny Depp and he touched my arm! It was pretty cool, I've never been that close to a big movie star before!!
This was the sunrise we saw on our way back to our cars!! We atarted at 3 p.m. on Friday and ended at 6 a.m. on Saturday!!! It was a long night but totally worth it!!
Julia, Me and Heather right before they took us over to the hotel to shoot! I wish they would have let us take our cameras to the set so we could have gotten a picture with Johnny!
Here is the back view of my awesome 50's do!! It looked really cool!!
Another view of my hair do! I'm do glad that I was able to have this experience and I will never forget it, but I don't think I would want to do it again real soon, it was a lot of waiting and standing and doing things over and over, but they did feed us good food and we did get paid $125 to do it, AND I'm in a movie with Johnny Depp, it's pretty sweet!
