A Must Read

I am always wondering what I should blog about... of course I love to blog about my adorable children, that's a given. But what else? There's food of course which is great, but lots of people blog about food so i only want to blog about seriously amazing food. See post below. But one thing I do a lot is READ seriously I read atleast a book a week. We don't have T.V at my house. Yes this is a choice I made, I'm really not a fan of t.v and anything we really want to see we still can because of the interent. ANYWAY when I think of relaxing, both boys are down for naps, house is semi in order, I've showered within the last 48 hours (always a good thing to keep up on;) ) then what do I do? I read ! and I love it! So I read about a book a week, and I think I'll start sharing some of my must reads on here. So for any of you out there looking for a good book to lay by the pool with or whatever maybe I'll have something on here. I also want to keep track because seriously I can't remember all the books I've read this year alone, and I keep telling myself I should keep a list so I can recommend books when people ask me and yet I still have yet to do this!


Well the Book of the week for me is THE HELP and it is seriously AMAZING! in my top 5 for sure and let me tell you it's not easy for a book to make it into my top 5! So if you haven't read it yet it's a must! And if you have read it, it's amazing right??


PS The movie is coming out in August and it looks SO good! So you better read it before then because if you are anything like me I can't watch a movie if I haven't read the book!

Luke A. Payton

Little Lukey is getting so big! Isaac tells me all the time "lukey is almost getting to be a big kid like me huh mom?" and it's true he's so big, I give him another month before he's toddling all over the place! (and then I'll be in trouble!) Here are a couple of great pictures I got of Mr. Luke last night! So adorable!

Ya Mom?

Super Cute Crayon Roll

I've been avoiding my blog lately. Not for any reason, just haven't really felt up to blogging nor have I had anything too thrilling to report:) But I'm back today and I just had to show off my awesome present that I made for my niece! She just turned two and I made her this adorable crayon roll! I love how it turned out. I must admit I did seek some motherly help for my binding, but I did the rest on my own and I only messed up two monumental times! haha! Well enjoy the pics of my awesome final project, and hopefully I'll have more to blog about in the coming weeks!

This is love!


I LOVE this baby so much! He is so funny! I like to describe him as intense, if he's mad he's "intensely" mad if he's happy he's "intensely" happy... I love him though and now that he's crawling he's so much happier on a regular basis! My most favorite thing is him and his big bro interacting and playing together! I love it! and I know I'm supposed to do better about living in the moment but I am SOO excited for Summer, with Luke turning 1 and Isaac turning 3 and warm weather and babies that walk, and vacations! I am just done with this winter and ready for the warmth!! So please spring come, and be warm and make me happy! Although looking at this picture makes me happy too:)

Viva Las Vegas

We took our FIRST family VACA a couple of weeks ago and I've been meaning to blog about it but I've been to lazy to download my pics! I was so excited to go, it really was the first time we had done something farther away then Park City and all together as a family. We had a good time, it's fun to get away and stay at a hotel and eat out. It was kind of an adventure for me and the boys because Brock was in training all day so it was just the 3 of us exploring the Vegas Strip, which can always be interesting! But it really was fun. The only downer was Isaac got the Flu (influenza flu we are getting vaccinated from now on!) so he wasn't feeling to good the first part of the week:( but we still had a good time Here's just a couple of pics I was pretty busy keeping these two boys busy so I forgot to pull the camera out (as usual!)...

LOVE this one!



M&M Factory:)



We stayed at Mandalay Bay and they have an aquarium inside the hotel so we had fun spending time there!
