Surviving 30..Getting a car

I had a really great surprise birthday last Sunday night while all my family was here. Then my friend watched the kids Friday night, so con and I could go out. We ended up going to look at Nissan Maxima's. Well to make a REALLY long story short, I spent all day on my birthday talking and negotiating a fully loaded Super Black, with Black leather Nissan. The car I bought (yes me) is actually in Durango CO and is the ONLY black Nissan with Black leather in the 4 state region. I am hoping to have it Monday or Tuesday, but I am so glad to have a real car, a nice beautiful car that is going to be mine, and I can finally turn in my rental car I've had for about 6 1/2 weeks! So after I signed the papers last night we went to dinner with the kids, and it was after 930 when we got home, so we have decided to save the Transformer cake Conley ordered me for tonight! He is so funny, got the transformer cake for the kids since it has 2 toys on it, but also for me. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful little family. I also got a surprise vacation to Vegas October 8-11. I am still figuring out a sitter, so hopefully my om can do it, if not my great friend S has said she would do it! I just feel so excited to have a car, finally:)

Wedding pics

Chek out my facebook for some wedding pictures my sister took. My camera still has no cord...But i have a lot of pictures...

Wedding Day

Today was my dad's wedding. But before all that, the kids had soccer games, and pictures. Teagan was lucky and my Aunt Sherri and Aunt Robyn were able to make it to her game at 9:30. After that I went over to Cades game, which was at 11:15, and Teagan had pictures at 11:23, and Cade had pictures at 12:47. Plus my dads wedding was at 2:00 in Longmont. Well we made it, in time. The kids were adorable. I have a picture of Teagan on my facebook but didn't get one of Cade. I have those on my camera, which still needs the cord to upload pictures. Cade had a little 3 piece suit with a tie, vest, black pants and long sleve white shirt, and Teagan has a cute flower dress and I did her hair so cute. I took a picture of that also, and its on facebook. It was a great day. I got to hang out with my Grandpa Ted, Grandma Joyce, and Gpa Ted was the official, in Colorado anyone can marry you, as long as you have a marriage license before hand. He gave a very sweet, yet enjoyable talk about my dad and how he met Melissa. Then he had them flip a coin to see who would say their vows first, and Melissa was 1. She said a lot of really great things about my dad, and my dad said very great things about her. It was a very nice, and casual ceremony. I will post all my pictures soon...Up next: A Utah trip possible to see Aunt Sherri the 2nd weekend in Oct. And my 30th birthday Saturday the 26th of Sept...

Funny Teagan story

About a week ago I got a weird text from a number I didnt know. Well then another text saying "This is Warren" I'm like who the..And then Teagan said "Oh I gave Warren your cell phone number..(I think she told him it was hers and she can text him back) Well almost every night now I am getting texts froms Teagans little friend Warren. In 4th grade this boy has an I Phone? Teagan wants a cell phone, but she can't even keep track of her glasses, and has been threw 2 pairs in less then a year already. Her dad told her NO TEXTS FROM BOYS...NO CALLS FROMS BOYS....I asked Teagan what does he want to talk toyou about anyways? She says "Well mom he just got a new German Shepard pup, so we wanted to talk about dogs..." Sorry 9 is too young for me to accept she likes boys already. Where does the time go?

What Cade said today...

As we are walking into school, we are praticing all the Presidents names from Mt Rushmore, because Cade had show and tell today. He wanted to take his brochures he got, and the bear brocure, and Teagan let him take her black bear. So we are walking into school, and Cade just all of a sudden says "If you make 2 dollars, Obama will take 1" " He takes all our money and spends it on the poor people" SO I said SHHHHH to him, and he said really loud, "Mom I am NOT going to be quiet" So after school I asked him how his day was...I said did you watch the Obama speech, and he says Yes. I say well what did he say...Cade says in a deep voice like an older man "Obama will come to our house and take all our money" He also said, in his Obama voice, "If you are good I'll give you a prize Cade"

This kid is so dang funny to me...

Dad's Wedding

My dad is getting married Sept 19th, at his home, to Melissa. I forgot to mention that earlier. I am very excited to see all the family!!! I also forgot to mention that if anyone visiting out here wants to they are invited to come watch Teagans soccer game here in Brighton at 930 am, and Cades will be at 11:15, I know this is cutting it close to the 2pm wedding, but we will be there ready to celebrate the newly weds....Plus the kids both have pictures for there teams that day...Never a dull moment

Updates..

The kids are enjoying soccer...Teagan has games that overlap, Cade's games, Conley is playing softball and flag football, and so I need another person to help me out! We took the kids Friday to South Dakota to see Mt Rushmore, and it was really fun. On Saturday we took the kids through bear country, and even tho is 15 per person, and 8 per kid, it was so worth the money because at the end there was a black bear licking out tire, there were so many bears roamming around. We say wild wolves, Elk what had like 8 points on each side, buffalo, baby bears, I have videos of the baby bears, and the bears walking around, but since Roxy chewed threw my cord I still haven't gone to find another cord. I have put a few updated pictures on my facebook, directly from my phone. We just stayed 1 night, and it was plenty long! About a 5 hour drive, and it was really fun.
