COMPUTERS... AAAAHHHHH

It has been forever since I have posted anything, and I've been trying to post from Halloween but for some reason my computer won't allow the program to run that allows me to upload photos, and I am not bright enough to figure out how to get around it! Hopefully I can get it figured out soon or find someone to figure it out for me. It is so frustrating to find a FEW minutes to accomplish something and then not be able to! Anyways there is my complaining for the day, not really... I'm sure I'll complain more later to my husband about being prego, that's an every day occurrence around here! But he should at least have to hear about it right?! I'm still here and will post again as soon as I get my computer figured out!

2010 SeNiOr

My niece Allix is a senior this year and we have been talking for awhile now about doing some senior photos for her. So this weekend we were finally able to get together to take advantage of the outdoors for some fun photos. I had such a great time with her she is such a cutie and a blast to be with. We took sooo many photos it was hard to pick my favs but here are a few of them!! Hopefully we will get a couple more chances this year to take more pics in the changing seasons.

He is such a thoughful man that wants to always make sure that his family is taken care of and happy.

I love you Jimmy!

4-H

This was our first year having a child in 4-H, and it was quite a learning experience for Abby and I! She did three different classes. She sewed pajama pants in her Sewing class. Painted, drew, and sculpted clay in her Art class. She learned how to shoot at all kinds of targets with a BB gun in her shooting class and even got a second place in their shoot out contest. So she was awarded a red ribbon for that. I think she has had a lot of fun. I'm afraid she will have to cut back on the classes next year though because Dylan will also be old enough next year and I won't be able to keep up with too many classes! We'll see if I can talk them both into doing the same classes! ;)

Potty Training...

So we have been trying to potty train our little Addalyn (her choice) I didn't think we were quite ready but she thinks she is so its lots of wet undies and thank heavens not so many dirty messes but the other day I had given her a frozen yogurt for breakfast and left the room and came back to check on the all too quiet one (expecting a HUGE mess) and when I finally found her this is what I found...
I just had to laugh and grab the camera!

So through this process I'll have to remind myself potty training isn't always bad, sometimes its good for a great laugh!

On a roll

For father's day I decided that I would try and make my sister-in-laws raspberry rolls for my wonderful husband! I had never made them before so I was quite hesitant to do so. But a few days prior I made cinnamon rolls (which my family devoured in a measly 2 days) from her recipe which is partly the same recipe,so I thought I could do it. They did turn out fine not quite as pretty as Samera's turn out but taste just fine. Now I find out the majority of my children do not even like raspberry rolls! Hopefully Jimmy will be able to eat them before they get to old! prior to baking

Since I didn't get around to making the rolls 'till quite late at night Jaksen was the only one that was still awake and he was trying to be such a big helper!

And the finished product!

Happy Father's Day Sweetie!
