Tagged

My sister In law Megan Tagged me more than a month ago and I am just getting around to doing it. Sorry megan. I think these are pretty fun to read, the whole time i was writing this Nicholas kept asking if I was writing my life story so sorry if it is pretty long!

20 years ago- I was 3 years old living in Sandpoint Idaho. I stayed home with my Mom doing probably most of the same things Kate does, except I think I was a little more bossy and fisted (so I’ve been told).

10 years ago- I was 13 years old, I was in the eight grade. This was the year I thought I was going to try to be athletic and did Track. Well it didn’t last long I think I went to all of two meets and then I gave up. It was to bad because from what I can remember I was pretty good at the hurdles.

5 years ago- I was 18 years old, going to my first year of college at ISU. I was studying to be a Special Ed Teacher. I was living with 3 great roommates: Teresa, Brittany and Charish, we sure had a lot of fun together. I worked with Handicap people who I miss dearly, I think this is what started me to want to go into Special Ed. I had not quite yet met the man of my dreams :).

3 years ago- I was 20 years old. Nicholas and I had been married for a year and a half. We were living in Ogden (the same place as we are now), I was pregnant and going to school at Weber. I was very anxious and excited to get our baby girl here. I was very busy with school and Alamo Storage, it is so funny because I look back at those times and think what did I ever do with my time?

1 year ago- I was 22 years old, living still in Ogden. I was pregnant with my sweet Savannah. I ran Alamo Storage and was home with Kate, I also watched a little girl for awhile at this time named Gerogie, Kate loved her. Nicholas was very busy at this time with school and studying for the MCAT so Kate and I were home lots playing and getting ready for our new baby.

So far this year- I have loved having all of us home in the mornings making big breakfasts and not getting out of my pajama until 10. Watching American Idol with Nicholas and The Bachelor (even though Nicholas pretends he doesn’t like this he for some reason always is around when I am watching it and loves throwing his comments in here or there.) We love our DVR because we can watch these when our girls are asleep. I had so much fun watching my two girls grow up and seeing all the new things they are learning and doing every day. I love being able to be a stay at home Mom with my two girls, something I hope I will always get to do. Spending lots and lots of time with Nicholas which I wish could be always, but I know this one will have to end probably when he gets into school.

Yesterday- I went to my favorite store Costo worked out at Lady Fitness. Played with my girls, cleaned my house, managed my office, rocked my baby. Made play dough with Kate and did it all over again. We went and watched Nicholas rope and brought pizza with us for Dinner. My girls love being outside and watching their Dad rope. Even Savannah is so excited and trys to get the horses constantly. We sure have a fun time.

Today- I was very busy in our office today so I was stuck answering the phone and helping costumers more than I wanted to. It was pretty nice out so we outside for a lot of the day playing in our sand box and swinging the girls. I made Costa Rica Sundays (thanks Megan) did lots of laundry, picked up the house and played with the girls.

Later Tonight- I am going to go talk and Laugh with my husband about our days. He was gone almost all day so I love it when we get to hear about each others days and spend time with him.

Tomorrow- We are going to go to my Grandmas house with my Mom and Nicholas and I are going to go on a Date, something that we don’t do often that we should probably start to.

This year- I cannot wait till it finally gets warm. We will probably go to a few rodeos and spend lots of time outside. We are moving in July so that will be the big event of our year. I am excited to get to start a new chapter in our lives.
I tag anyone who wants to do something fun!!

You are an incredible wife and mother-seriously we all could learn a lesson or two from you! Fun to read about and don't forget you will always be "Sporty Spice" so don't sweat the hurdles!!

That was really fun to read! You really make me laugh! You and Nitch are really good together. I am really glad that you are my sister-in-law. (I really hate the word in-law, because I feel like you are just on of my sisters) We couldn't ask for a nicer wife for my little brother and better mom for your kids. You are great!
