24th of July Primary Parade

This was Carter and Kindra's first Primary Parade and we decorated Carter's four wheeler and Kindra's pony and they went on a parade around the church. It was funny and made me remember my first parade. I wore a Hawaiin dress and had Grandpa Sainsbury their with me. Hopefully the kids will remember their first one as well....

More Swimming and More Mowing

My NEW Car and My NEW Jobs

I bought a new car and I love it! It is a 2007 Acura MDX and it is so cute. The kids love it because they each have their own row and it has a DVD/TV so it keeps them occupied and not in touching distance of each other! That makes it all worth it! I love it because its fast!

I also want to announce that I will be the new spokesmodel for two products....

1.Mentholatum....the cure all of everything and anything

2.Puma Shoes....I love my shoe collection! I can not resist when it comes to Puma shoes! I love them because they are just so dang cute! and because I love to shop!

and I almost forgot...I really wish that I could be a model for Anthropologie!! My all time favorite store that I spend way too much money at!

We are officially TOWN CARNI RATS

Even though I vowed to never become a town carni rat like the ones I always saw going to the carnival when I was in Highschool, I broke down! I decided to take the kids on a surprise adventure....to the town carnival that has come to AF since before I was born. I remember when I was younger we would drive by and I would be scared because of what the carnival looked like and what the people who were there looked like...and I am here to testify that it has not changed. It was actually sad to see some of these kids who will never have a chance. Its the whole nature vs nurture idea...but anyways, we went and the kids were so excited because it was like Lagoon! Kindra was nervous at first but soon was laughing as hard as Carter.....

The Lawn Mower Doctor

If you know Carter, you know how routined he is and there is one nightly activity that he looks forward to. One day as we were driving by Duff Shelly, which is an ATV/Lawncare shop in AF, we discoverd that every night as they are closing up, they drive in all of their machines back in behind the fence. Carter was estatic because he loves fourwheelers, lawnmowers, lawn jeeps, etc, etc. so it became a 15 minute tradition. The service guys wave to us and rev the engines and do tricks and wheelies and just play to their audience! Its hilarious.....Carter has his own little window that he watches out of and I know dreams of when he will be big enough to own his own shop and to become his own "Lawn Mover Doctor" and yes, I made that name up!

Tan Tan Tan

The other thing that I love about the kids loving the outside, is that I can lay out and tan all day long. I am beginning to feel like I am in college again with how dark I am becoming. You know what they say...."Once you go black, you never go back"!!!

I LOVE Summer

I will say that this Summer I have figured out one of the best inventions ever! A swimmng pool! The kids will go out for hours and allow me to do what ever I want. I know that they are coming up with the craziest ideas....

1. taking off their swimming suits and having an outside bath and laughing the whole time because they know I am going to freak out

2. use old pieces of wood and make them into boats and fishing poles..."But mom, we are going fishing"

3. fly down the ramp with the old big wheel and use it as a launching mechanism to fly or bounce into the pool

4. take out the water, put the water into a bucket and go water the plants aka the weeds!

It amazes me the things that they can come up with. But the thing that I love the most is hearing the laughter!! Carter laughs histerically and Kindra just eggs it on!

The 4th of July

The kids are now old enough and have a lot more fun when we do our own firework show. They had so much fun with the sparklers like every one does at their age. I remember feeling the same way! Carter made sure that Kindra knew exactly where to put the sparklers when they were done...in his pile on the curb where he was sitting! :)

Just the 3 of us!

Even though this is a few months old, it is still way cute of the kids so I wanted to post it. Looking at how much they have grown, makes me realize just how much I need to get new pictures taken. They definately are crazy with energy but atleast it keeps me going non-stop!

My New Boyfriend!!!

Need I say more? I mean honestly...Josh and I are the perfect match. It does help that he's completely gorgeous and madly in love with me. Ha!

Welcome to my life!!!
