Forks Dorks

Sunny and I went on the funnest trip ever to Forks WA!!!!!!!!!!!!! We toured Forks, La Push, Port Angeles, and several filming locations in Portland. See my Facebook for pics!

A Tad Tired

I again had the internal debate to go private on my blog. Then I decided I'm a tad tired of blogging altogether. For many reasons actually, but mostly because I've lost interest in it. Which is actually a great thing if you know me, because I spend entirely too much time on the computer. Maybe I will spread my wings and get a hobby! However, I will wait to shut down my blog for awhile to make sure this isn't some rash hormonal decision. Oh and also I need to save and print all my stories. So much to do!

Happy Birthday, Zachy Poo

Just wanted to drop a note for Zach, who shares a birthday with our son. Originally, Tyger was the best present a dad could ever have for his birthday! But now it just seems like Zach is overlooked as everyone celebrates Tyger's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ZACH! I LOVE YOU!

Happy Birthday, Tyger Jones!

Happy birthday my baby boy! Tyger is already 6 years old. The last 6 years have gone so fast! Too fast, sigh... We had an Indiana Jones birthday party:


We decorated snakes, had a yarn whip contest (not pictured), and decorated Tyger as a mummy. We had an awesome Indiana Jones cake that had an actual rolling boulder on it! The party was a blast, except I planned it for way way too long and so we spent a lot of time just running around playing, but the kids had fun anyway. Here are some pics:

This is how I found Tyger in the morning before the party: 40 degree weather, winter coat, shorts, socks, and flip flops. Thanks for raking the leaves Tygee!

Halloween pic-ee-poos

Here are a few up close: Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein



Zach was a tough guy with tattoos?


And I was boring and didn't do any thing for Halloween.


These are from last night at the American West Heritage Center corn maze and hay jump and halloween light festival.


These are from a few weeks ago at Second Dam in Logan Canyon

Tater Tomater: He-Cows

Just a short on my little Tater Bug. 2 days ago in the WalMart line there was a man with cowboy boots and a cowboy hat on. Tatum shouted (she shouts everything), "Hey cowboy!!!" She then continued to have a long (stupid walmart lines) conversation with the man about various cowboy things. I was a tad embarrassed, but what could I say? Anyway this morning she couldn't remember the term "cowboy" but put it together as best she could and asked me, "Mom, why do 'He-cows' ride on cows?" I actually think she is smart to dissect the world like that. "He-cows." Ha ha.

Best Town Ever

When Zach and I moved to Cache Valley 7 years ago, I felt like I was "home" immediately. In no other place have I ever felt this connection. I truly rejoice on a daily basis that I have the privilege of living in such a beautiful place. Now that I live where I feel at peace, I have everything I could ever want! My perfect little family, indescribable beauty all around me, home. I feel blessed beyond what I deserve. God is great!

Plug for Best Amy Ever

I thought I would put in a plug for my personal blog since no one reads it. It's called "Crunch A La Moi" or "Best Amy Ever" and is very weird. But in case you are bored, feel free to stop on by. It's linked at the right.
