Naming Dan Jr.

So like everything else in Holly and Dan's life, we cannot make up our mind on a name for our little boy. So cast your vote or leave a comment on why or why we shouldn't use a name. Thanks for the input!

Smokey

My Little Smokes passed away last week. I was so sad to see this little guy go but I am very glad I knew it was coming. He has been my little buddy since I can remember. He was such a a cutie! Dad made a little grave for him with a marker and everything in the back yard near the pond, so I can come and visit him. I think all of my family will miss smokes, even Dan, who we wouldn't call an "animal lover."

8 Months and counting

4 MoNtHs


8 MoNtHs

Can you believe what a change! "TRIM SPA WORKED FOR ME" As you can tell it is not just my belly that is getting bigger. I hate when I see all these pregnant girls that totally keep their shape. Maybe they get bigger boobs, but what about the other 75% of NORMAL girls that get huge everywhere when they are pregnant? So here is a shout out to all my girls that get thunder thighs and double chins! YEAH!!

ShOuT OuT tO SmOkEs

This is my kitty Smokey. I know some people are in Love with there animals, but smokes is truly awesome. He is so calm and friendly, even to little kids that maul him to death. He has been sick for sometime now, something to do with cancer on his intestines. I am a true believer that even though pets can be your best friends, they are not humans. So no expensive surgery for smokes. He just keeps getting skinner and skinner (he used to be so fat we called him chunker bunk) It is so sad to see him like this. But I have been thinking a lot about my little buddy back at home (he had to stay with Mom and Dad.) Just wanted to remind every one of Smokes and how awesome he is! LOVE YOU SMOKEY!

MY fourth of July

I am sure everyone had so much fun with friends and family on their favorite Holiday, "the 4th of July" Blah, is all I have to say to them! Mine was so boring I fall asleep talking about it! Dan has the STUPIDEST test ever that he has been studying for non-stop for the last month, which has really put a damper on my fun time.
So while everyone was out at BBQ's with their families loving life and staring at the bright sky, Holly was watching them on TV! Yes, I know So lame! Friday I spent the entire day in the kitchen to fulfill my boredom. I cooked anything I could think that I would be using if I had a party to go to! I cooked biscuits and gravy for breakfast, and went on to Frog eye salad (which apparently is a Utah thing that no one has ever heard of and No stores carry the right pasta noodles) potato salad, 3 desserts and chicken salad sandwiches and of course good old hamburgers on the grill for dinner! Here are some pictures of one of my patriotic desserts. I thought it would be so nasty and all for show, but it actually tasted pretty good.






Saturday was just as boring so thats right folks I headed to the mall, what better way to make time go by than by spending money $$$$. I went and bought a bunch of towels and my lovely neighbor Liz (who is an expert with the sewing machine) helped me follow Keens pattern for hooded towels for Jr. This is honestly like the first time I have done anything with a needle and thread since jr. high. You should have seen the look on Dan's face when I brought them home, he was so proud of me! Lets just say Liz has a lot of patience!
