PuPpY PiCs!!!

What the ????

So I started the 2nd book yesterday and could not believe what happened! I don't want to give too much away for those of you who haven't read it yet,(Mom & Casey) but I was so MAD!!! And heartbroken. I know things must get better or work out since there are 4 books, but I was so upset! I am so addicted to these books! Everyone must think I'm NUTS!!!

D-Day:(:(:(

Well, today is the anniversary of John's death. Its my D-day, and has been for years. When ever July is over and I turn my calander to August, I still after all these years get teary eyed and a lump in my throat. But today is the day that he died 10 years ago. It seems like just yesterday. There hasn't been one single day that I havent thought about John. He loved life! He made me laugh. He always knew how to put a smile on my face or how to make me burst out laughing! He loved being outdoors and loved being with people. He loved fast cars and motorcycles. He loved my family. Having being raised by his grandparents and being an only child, he never had much of a family life. When we started dating he always wanted to go to my house and "hang-out". He loved my mom and dad and all my brothers and my sis. It was the family he never had. I was so glad that we were able to give him that. I am so glad I got to spend my high school years with him, and a wonderful year and a half of marriage. I never got to tell John goodbye, so I look forward to the day when I can say hello again.

pUpPiEs!!!!!

Anni had her pups this morning!!! She had 1 girl, and 3 boys! She has been a great mom so far. The girls are in seventh heaven and have been sitting at the cage all day just watching them. Anni was actually named Debbie when we first got her (wierd dog name I know) So Brook felt it necesarry to name the only girl after her mom, so we named her Debbie! The boys are Mambo, ToDo and Remmie the Runt! The are so cute and chubby! She was a week overdue so they are very big! I'll post some pics soon!

All Grown Up!!!

Last weekend we went to St. George for my niece's baptism. My mom snapped some pics of the girls while we were there. They look all grown up! I can't believe Taylor is going into the 5th, yes, the 5th grade, and my little Brookie is going into the 3rd grade! Where does the time go?

ADDICTED!!!

So I've been hearing about the twilight books for sometime now, and never paid them any attention, they never seemed to interest me. I don't read to often, and if I do it has to be something that keeps me very intersted. If I don't get interested in the first chapter, I won't read it. Well, my friend Heather,(Bentley's mom, the little babe I sit) had told me how good the books were so I thought what the hay, I'll give it a try. Started reading and I cannot put the thing down! I usually don't get into books all that much, but this book has cast a spell over me. I get so busy during the day with the babes, so I can't read to much and it drives me insane wondering what will happen next, lame I know. I stayed up till 1 am last night reading as much as I could. Woke up at 4am when Dave left for work and read again! Has anyone else read these books? Anyone else hooked like I am??? Can't wait to finish this one so I can move on to the next!!!

Puppies Coming Soon!!!

So our dog Anni is due to have puppies any time now. She was due on Saturday, and has been having contractions for a few days, but no pups yet. The girls are SO exited and can't wait to see the little pups! We already have them all named. So far they are Mambo(the girls came up with this because one of the pups has happy feet and is kicking all the time), Georgette, ToTo, and Francie. We are hoping she only has 3 or 4. I certainly don't want 6 or 7 puppies running around our house! Only one of the pups has been spoken for, so if anyone wants a CUTE little min pin puppy, let us know!!!

So for the 4th of July we went to Dave's dad's house in Parowan. All of the Bean family was there and it was tonz of fun! We all took our tents and camped out in the backyard. The girls had lots of fun playing with their cousins and seeing Grandma & Grandpa Bean. We had yummy dutch oven food and peach-rasberry cobbler for dessert! We had such a good time in Utah and can't wait to go back!!!

So two weeks ago we went to Knottsberry Farm and the water park at Knotts, Soak City. We spent a day at each place and we had a BLAST! Dave made us go on all the SCARY roller coasters, and we were all nauseated by the end of the day. I looooved the water park and the tital wave beach they had. So FUN and so RELAXING! We also cruised around the water park on the lazy river a few times. We had a really fun trip and it went by too fast! On the last day we went to Huntington Beach and soaked up some sun! The water was freezing that day, but it was still FUN!!! I miss Cali already and I really want to move there!!!
