Oldies But Goodies

Just for you Julie I posted pics of Scott and I. Starting in 1993 when we met in the good ol'MTC. Yes believe it or not we both served missions. It was here that Scott thought I was a snob and I thought he was really immature. LOL! That is really no joke! So it took not speaking for 2 1/2 years, 3 other boyfriends for me, 2 girlfriends for him and then Scott calling me one night out of the blue! Now we have been married for 13 years, 2 little girls and one damn dog! Ü April 1993 MTC

Yes that is Scott in the middle....

This pic was taken Oct 1995
Scott and I went on our first unofficial date

Orlando Temple Spring break 1996

for our 2nd date Scott flew me to Florida for a week. (its hard to actually date when we lived in different states!)

This weekend we are celebrating 13 years of being married! We met in 1993, started dating in 1995 and were married in 1996 just 2 weeks after I finished college. (had to student teach before I officially graduated.) I love this man like buttah...2 sticks of buttah slapped togetha! Thank you for the giving me the best 2 girls in the whole world. Thank you for being my prince charming and ALWAYS treating me like a queen. Thank you for loving me more than peanut buttah! Enjoy some pics of us in our favorite pose.

Today was a better day. Scott loves me!

Warning.....Debbie Downer Post.

It's a Debbie Downer day wahhh wahh.
Alexandra 2 cavities...at her 3 month check up. Whats that you say? 3 month check up? yes she was having shooting pains up into her ear as she would chew. Alexandra has 2-3 cavities with each check up. Madison has had 0 cavities in her life.

Came home to clean the house...found dog poop and pee on the CARPET, oh how I sooooo wanted a dog. NOT!

Scott has lost 4 pounds....ive gained 4 ounces. WTF?!

While I worked....

Scott and the girls hung out with Louie Sakoda and just kicked the football.

look close...can you see Alexandra?

Oh Scott....lets see whatcha got!

Yeah....leave it up to the professionals! look at that follow through! Go Louie!

Louie Sakoda and the girls.

This is the funniest conversation happened between Alexandra and I tonight during dinner. We went to a restaurant that we could see the tv as we ate. ESPN'S Sports Center was on and they were going through the top 10 nfl players of all time (i think...there was no sound) Anyways #7 is Marcus Allen woot! woot! (My all time favorite football player ever!!!!) I'm telling alexandra all about him. Then #6...is Jerry Rice ....Im telling alexandra all about him and Joe Montana...her next question is..."is that Rice related to the that Rice player on Utah"s football team?" "RJ Rice?" I clarified "The one you are always saying good catch to." say Alexandra. (RJ Rice caught an almost fumbled football in a kickoff return during the Sugar Bowl this year against Alabama.) "no honey RJ Rice is white and Jerry Rice is black. but Im sure he will take the compliment!" I said.

My little girl Madison loves to make up her own songs. Here is one I am listening to right now as she is playing dolls in the room next to me. "i will be your best friennnnnnnd. aaaaaaaah best friend..... its better its beetttttter!........There she goes ...there she goes again....there she goes again. A cottage....cottage.psshhhhht (like the sound of symbols) psssshhhhtt! ding! ding! ding! beep! beep! beep! hey kids its time to get up!

The washing machine is too loud for me to hear anymore. oh she is sooo cute! Time to get ready for school.

Kind of like the beach

Last night we went over to Daybreak and hung out on their "beach". They have soft sand and water...but its eerily quiet with no waves....just the sound of splashing. oh I miss the ocean! so I added the sounds of waves to my playlist. It almost sounds real....not! Come on Scott, smile....its OUR pose!!

First Day of School

Today was Madison's first day of first grade, first day to stay all day and first day to eat lunch at school. She was sooooo excited. I took 2 pictures and the camera died...battery dead! WHAT!?? so as sooon as I buy a new battery....ill upload the photos. bad mom!

Finally here are the pics!

My baby is in first grade!

First Day of School

Is a 4th grader too old to have her mama take pictures of her outstide before school? I didn't follow her into class.... Although Scott told me I took way to many pictures. :( Oh well... When Alexandra was 4 months old I taught 4th grade that year...so its kind of like her second time there. I hope you have a wonderful year Yaya! I already miss you!
