Prankstars baby!

Yup our team is called the prankstars! I am not wearing green because I am the goalie, pretty sure every one knows that, just saying. ;0 We started way back in January and we have till end of May. I still can't believe I am playing the only sport I vowed never to play, but I have to admit I actually like it. It gets pretty intense sometimes. My team is awesome and everyone is a mom, they are hardcore. Don't get me wrong I laugh very hard a lot of times, some of you know why! Anyway here is our team. I have yet to get an action shot!!! Go team go!

Happy Easter!






The Easter bunny dropped off eggs for Jordan in my parent's backyard. She had so much fun gathering them up and putting them in her bucket. It was a beautiful day! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter. :)

Bitter Sweet......

I can't even tell you how excited I am that we are finally moving into our new house beginning in May, which is only 1 week away. We found out yesterday that it is ours. I say it is bitter sweet because although I can't wait to move out of our apartment it means we have to change wards. I love our ward very much, we love our ward. And it hasn't really hit me yet because we won't go to the other ward until June and we will still be in Sierra Vista so I don't think it will really hit until we start attending our new ward. Our new ward will be 5th ward. :)
I don't have pictures of the house yet because it is still occupied until the end of this next week. I will get some as soon as we get the closing done and our keys. I can't wait to have a backyard where Jordan can play, a garage for our cars, no more sharing walls with strangers, no more fearing for our lives some nights, seriously the list goes on. I can't stop smiling! :)

Bragging moment......

WE WON!!! We took 1st place at the St. David tournament today! :) I'm so happy we finally won this tournament. The first time I played we took 2nd, the second time we took 3rd and the third time we took 1st! Third times the charm right? We actually didn't lose one game the whole day. It was a lot of fun. I am definitely exhausted but it is totally worth being exhausted from doing my favorite thing. A lot of other players that we usually play with or that are great friends were on other teams or pregnant, but I love these girls that I played with today. Front, Leah and Denise. Back, Keesa, Brittany, me and Rebekka (aka Herb). So much fun! Good work! Woot Woot!

Can it get any better....

with conference weekend getting away to my parent's cabin? It was a very relaxing trip and the weather was great! Conference was awesome as usual but I especially loved it with all the family talks. Got to love that!!! Hopefully we will add on someday! :)


And it couldn't have gone better with Jordan, she is such a good 2 year old, I am really lucky with her. Don't get me wrong she is very very busy but she makes up for it with her sleep. Seriously my child can SLEEP! Sometimes I have to check on her to see, but every time she is passed out. A few weeks ago I transitioned her into a toddler bed and she did great. The first night she had to be scolded only twice and then she was out, the next day for her nap she was begging to go down because we had an exhausting playdate. Then that night was only three scoldings and she was out, then the next day begging to be put down for her nap. But that third night I woke up at 2 in the morning with a double ear infection (never had one before in my life let alone two) added on to my sinus infection not knowing what was going on with my head crying in pain I woke Jordan up and she comes waltzing in a half hour later wide awake saying it's ok, so nice but not the right time. So after going to the doctor that morning and finding out what it was and how long I had till I could get rid of it I put her crib back up that night and we haven't gone back since. I feel guilty but it's like potty training right, if the mom is not ready don't kill the both of you trying to force it. We'll go back to it very soon, especially since she did so great!


Jordan had such a blast at the cabin she wanted to ride the fourwheeler (she called it a "cycle" for motorcycle) the whole time. She was really mad though that mama, daddy and the 2 grandpas couldn't all get on at the same time, she didn't want to leave anyone out. She is very thoughtful. OH yeah and the reason why I say the 2 grandpas is because she refuses to say grandma so they are both grandpa. It's pretty hilarious actually. We were getting a kick out of it the whole weekend. It's not her fault though, because whenever she said grandpa first grandma would come running too, so there you go! Here are a few pics of her and her on the "cycle".

March 2011

Trent and Shelby were sealed in the Mesa, Arizona temple on March 18. It was such a beautiful day and a beautiful ceremony. I'm so happy for you two!!

Corey, Jordan and I left for Tucson on Wednesday after Corey's last day of working at Oil Can Henry's because he was hired to work in the finance department at Northrop Grumman that started the following Monday. (March 21) It couldn't have worked out more perfectly because he was able to come with Jordan and I to the sealing.









So we stayed the night in Tucson and Thursday afternoon we drove to Mesa to meet up with my parents and I got to see these family members whom I love and miss like crazy......


Trent and Shelby of course.....

my uncle Rick and Penny......


my sister Jana....


my grandma, mom and dad.....


my aunt Laura, Corey and mom......



Jana and my cousin Desiree, etc.


Thursday night we ate at Claim Jumper, yummy! We had lots of laughs, lots! Jordan was smiling for the camera for aunt Jana. She was very excited to see her too! She smiled great for her,


love this picture of her.


Scary I know but I couldn't resist.


We ended the night with card games and catching up with everyone.


Friday morning we woke up early and headed to the Mesa Temple. I left Corey and Jordan in the hotel room because they didn't need to get there until 11:00 for pictures. So I hopped in the truck with my parents, Jana, Trent and Shelby. We were laughing so hard trying to get a pic of all four of us in the back, this is the best we could do with our situation and it was pretty hilarious for some reason.
