happy halloween birthday.

As we walk our path of life,

We meet people everyday.

Most are simply met by chance.

But, some are sent our way.

Dear sweet Kendra, You are my very special friend. I can't tell you how much I love you and am So happy that you are in my family now. I always knew somehow we could make you an official part of the family. haha Growing up with you was so much fun, it was always nice to have you to talk to. You always listened to my and my silly thoughts and the things I was having trouble with. I loved that you never judged me or anyone for that matter of fact. You love everyone and everyone loves you. When I was going through my pictures I found so many pictures of you and I. I couldnt put them all on here.... haha . we've had so much fun together and now we have babies together...CRAZY...Anyway.. on this HALLOWEEN day I want to wish you a HAPPY birthday. YOU are da BESSS...Have a good one!

so much fun....

2 days late...for the very wonderful kate.

Happy Birthday dear Kate...we think you are a wonderful daughter.no Grand daughter, yeah, yeah, yeah, grand daughter...

-Did you know I couldn't kiss Joe for a while because he looked too much like his sister Kate. (which isn't bad, but Kate was in my grade and it was just weird)

Did you know Kate is one of my very favorite people. (it's a shame we didn't hang out more in high school)

Did you know her birthday was 2 days ago? (probably... because everyone posted about it...she is well loved.)

So I am late....again...

Kate I am sorry the post is late. I for sure knew it was your birthday though. I even gave you your present early. And we went to Payson together. haha So I promise...I knew...Besides it's still your birthday..All month right?

We went to dinner with the family in payson after Laura's game and everyone at the table said one nice thing about Kate...here were a few things mentioned.

-nice sister, she's my best friend, I can talk to her so easy and tell her anything.

-she is always wearing a smile.

-she was wearing a really cute hat and the waiter even chiped in and said he liked it.

-she liked to climb trees when she was little, so rambunctious and fun.

-we heard her birth story. the doc thought she was too small to come early, but 2 and a half weeks eary she was 8 pounds 4 ounces or something like that. she had chubby cheeks!

-she is so pleasent to be around.

-we liked that she orderd a giant hot dog and some mashed potatoes...

-She has a really cute style.

-shes our favorite to hang out with.

Those were just some of the things mentioned. but there are PLENTY more..I love you Kate, I am so glad we get to hang out all the time. You really are so much fun and so plesent to be around.

She is a happy happy girl.

Today she started eating rice cereal.

we had to un-button her jeans so her belly could relax to eat.

She didn't really know how to eat it....the cereal was all over the place.

atleast she tried... We'll get it, don't you worry Ryah...

Okay.. six things that bother me.

- dirty houses.
-dry hands.
-impaitent people, especially when they are driving. (you maybe save 2 seconds by nearly killing me and my small child.)
-complainers. (you get what you get and you dont throw a fit) is what i was always taught.
-sticking dry feet into a sleeping bag when I forget socks..eehhh i hate that worst of all.
-anything fishy:)

-I'd rather pee a water melon..(if i suggest to do something he doesn't want to)

-That moron drives like me..(if Joe gets behind a bad driver)

-It's all cru-kid and bus-ed up..(like a native american)- any little thing that might be broken...

here are a few things i hear atleast once a day

-Chel-sea e e e...(emphasis on the Chel) -If i've done something wrong.

-I love you Chelsea....SAY IT BACK...Say it back Chelsea..I love you.

-Turn that lamp off and come back that thing up on me... :) muhaha

-Did you miss daddy sweet girl? (comming home from work talking to Ryah)

Classic Joseph, Classic....

Now for little miss Ryah. Take a look at how cute she is...Her belly is so cute and chubby.. it really does have cottage cheese in it.. all around her belly button... I love it. The two other babies are Kambriale and Emma.. My sisters babies.

the things we come up with.

Oh my sweet Ryah. I hope you like the room your daddy and I enjoyed putting together for you. Thank Grandma Jacki for the beautiful bumper. pillow. blanket. curtains. old door and shelf...

HER SEWING WORK IS INCREDIBLE!

i have so much fun with you all day long. I can stare at you and watch your wide expressive eyes and your big chubby cheeks with dimples to simply have a better day. you motivate me to be better in hopes to teach you the things of life.

Thank you for being so happy...even when you have a double ear infection, cough and wheezy lungs. I know how hard it is the be happy when you don't feel good, but you sure pull it off...Thanks Ryah...

I can't believe she is already 3 and a half months old...where does time go? I want more time with her. It feels like she is growing to fast. She isn't by my bedside anymore in the bassanet...she has her own crib...DOWNSTAIRS! ahh.. i know i know Chelsea...slowdown.

"it should be fine".

Anyway I love you Ryah...

P.S

Joe... I love you. You are the best husband and daddy...

my wish list.

-A trip to Brazil to see Joe's mission

-A bow...I know, weird, but i want to learn how to shoot a bow and get good at it.

-A sewing machine...(kind of clashes with a bow)

-pants from downeast in Utah in Cedar City...

-A picture to hang above my bed.

-A big bull elk hunt... to watch Joe get all excited.(Joe has changed me) :)

-Ryah to get feeling better

- Get rid of our T.V.

-Take more walks now that it's getting cool.

So there are a varity of things I want. Things off the top of my head. How fun would it be to be able to pull a bow back and be able to shoot it good. Maybe I should get good at the 12 gauge first...haha....

P.s. Kate and I, we have guns in our hands...

Thanks for the picture Kate...I love it
