Moab

This is what Bella does all day.

Poor little wet dog. She looks so sad.

What we have been up to???

I have not blogged for a long time. But I don't have a new cute baby like Issac to talk about:) Any way we have been busy with ball games and dancing and anything else you can think of. Oh and the dog. She is a handful, but she is really good. Only three days of potty training and she had it down. She is getting really big and the kids just love her. She is a great addition to our family some days anyway.

We gave Bella her first bath the first of February it was funny she looked like she was skinny and sad, but dogs are so stinky I hate that part. She spends most of her day just lounging around. Hard life.

In February I was able to go with the Young Women to the Draper Temple and it was amazing. It was so pretty inside and outside. Cassidey went with me and we had a great time. I had to give my first talk in church and I hated that. I was sick for a week and did not sleep. I was never so happy to get something over with in my life. I am so happy to have my calling in YW and have learned so much.

So far this month we have been practicing for dance competitions and the end of basketball has arrived. Tyler's job is coming to an end at the Church History building and he just resently went to Moab to do some jeepin for some much needed down time with the guys. He had a great time. I cannot wait for the sun to come out so that we can hit Bear Lake. Anyway this is all for now enjoy the pic's.

The DOG!!

Ok now I know that I have become a selfish person because my kids are older and do most everything for themselves; this dog thing is hard. I am exhausted and she takes a lot of work. Poor Tyler I make him do the night duty, because my butt is too lazy to get up in the night. For the most part she is so good and the kids absolutely love her. I am trying to be relaxed about the whole thing but at times I want to seriously pull my hair out. Anyway I just needed to vent.

Our new baby girl-Bella

We just got our little goldendoodle, Bella. She is so good already it is an adjustment though. The kids are so excited and willing to help. They will be harder to train then the dog for sure. She is a golden retriever-poodle mix and will be pretty big. But she doesn't shed so that is a bonus. We love her already.

My little family

My brother Landen got my mom a puppy for Christmas, it is a Rot/Pit mix named sampson, he is so cute. It will be good for my mom to have a pet since she has an empty nest now.
