It's me again!!

So I haven't written in some time because nothing has really happened. With that said, tons of little things have happened (nothing too important) and I figured the only people that read this anyway are the ones that want to know the little things that are going on in my life. So this week has flown by, my parents left on Monday for a 10 day extravaganza and I must say that I am quite jealous. It has been so lonely here at the house with no one else here (eleesha works in the morning and I work in the evening, so we both have the house to ourselves... well, eleesha has a friend staying here so she doesn't get to lonely). So I was going to go visit my friends in reno because I have a three day weekend, but my best friend (the one I usually mooch off of is "out of town" for the weekend). So I think I have decided to stay here for the weekend which will be good because I am making a quilt for one of my friends, at work, baby shower. I am just worried about a weekend at the house by my self... (eleesha is taking a day trip tomorrow and will probably be attending church with Jared)... we'll see. Besides that I have another work filled week ahead of me (again with no parents), so nothing too exciting. For those who know, I have a friend coming home from his mission on July 2nd which is coming up soooo quickly... so again, we'll see ;D. I hope you are doing well... don't forget to write. Love you always!

VACATION






Matt and I finally got to get away for a four day weekend. It was sooo nice to relax and spend quality time together. For the first night we stayed at a mountain ranch in Williams Arizona. It was chilly when we got there and neither one of us even thought to bring jackets being it was supposed to hit 100 in Vegas. So there were no clothing stores in Williams so we drove to Flagstaff and luckily found some jackets (they were both on sale, we were stoked about that) Then we headed back for our horse ride. It was so nice a relaxing, a great way to start a vacation. We saw lots of deer. It was also at twilight, in the forest so it was absolutely beautiful.

The next day we traveled to Prescott Arizona. we wandered around down town for a while then decided it would be fun to see a movie. So after a short adventure we found the theatre and saw Narnia prince Caspian, it wasn't as good as the first one but i enjoyed it. On Saturday, we headed out and got massages (Matt's first one) and went looking for property for sale. We quickly got tired of that and headed back to the hotel for a nap (just because you can do that when you are on vacation) That evening Amber and Mckade came and brought Kaleb to us and we went out to dinner. It was so good to see them again, even if it was for a short time.And on Sunday we headed home.

As for Kaleb he had adventures on his own. He had a two night sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa mandeles' house but he couldn't stay for the third night because they were leaving to go on a cruise. So they flew with him to Phoenix where amber and mckade picked him up, watch and played with him for the day, then drove him to Prescott to where we were. It took a lot of planing, but everything turned out great (or so i hear) It was a fun vacation, and it couldn't have happened without help, thanks to everyone who took good care of my son. I love you and appreciate all your help.

Here are some pictures (sorry i didn't take very many, i was on vacation)

Matt is done!!!




Yeah, as of this Thurs Matt has his bachelors in Architecture from UNLV. We survived another semester!! Matt has been working hard and long hours (his average day was 17 hours long). We are all so proud of him (even though he only sees it as a mile stone because he will be getting his masters). I am so excited to see him more often, and for him to have regular 40 hour weeks. Matt is an amazing husband. So, here is a pic of him on the run.

6 months and still growing





Kaleb turned 6 months on may 2nd, and he is such a joy in my life. He loves mirrors, being upside down, swinging, being outside, and kids(especially anna, she can make him laugh too :) ) He is rolling over both directions now, but only when he feels like it. He is just so full of life, but yet he will relax and enjoy the fresh air and cuddle with loved ones. He reminds me already how far i have to go to be close to perfect. He has become a little picky, he dosn't like people with glasses, and gets nervous when being held by certain people. I am just so greatful to be his mom!!
