We are ALIVE and Enjoying the wonderful Sunshine...

We finally got Internet back last week, but I have procrastinating updating the blog. I have been awful at remembering my camera when we go do stuff, but Tim's phone has lots of pictures that I'll have to take off later. We LOVE our new place! We were a little nervous since we had never been in one or seen it. Luckily, we had Sarah and My grandma who came and helped get things going for us, especially my grandma who would come over to the complex when we couldn't get a hold of anyone. Anyways, we are so glad that we decided on this place! It is a townhouse and has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths It is nice having so many bathrooms, but it was nice only having one toilet to have to clean but that is my only complaint! I will try and take some pictures soon! We have had lots of fun exploring St. George and some of the things we have done are: walked to the temple (whenever Kaleb sees it now he says "my bemple"). Kaleb loved the visitors center with all the pictures of Jesus and the cute little houses they have. We have hiked around Dixie rock, gone swimming a lot, gone to the splash park, played at the basketball hoops, enjoyed playing with all the kids that live right around us, and we also just went up to Zion with my grandma on Monday. I did take my camera, but of course the battery died.

My boys at Zion!

This is the best I could do with Kaleb actually looking at the camera!

Some new things for us since moving down here are: we have decided to also change our eating habits and eat a lot healthier than we have been. So we said good bye to pop and some other things we had a little too regularly and said hello to more fruits, veggies and other healthy foods and on top of that I have been going to the gym 5 days a week! I started going to the Zumba class at the gym at the great advice of my sister Sarah. I love it! It is so much fun, a great workout, and the hour flies by. Next I am going to start doing a weight class as well. Here is to a smaller healthier Tim and Jenny! Some other good news is we found out Tim will be able to graduate next summer since he will have enough credits! So glad for that! I am also going to go back to school for Fall semester I am going to just take a couple of classes, but I really want to finish a degree so I have decided to get one in Early Childhood so one day I can maybe have a preschool in my home!

WE do miss all our family, Kaleb asks just about every day where everyone is by name, I don't think he completely understands that we live a long drive away! Our Jakey boy is trying so hard to crawl he gets up on his knees and just rocks. (check out the video below) He is also sitting up so well on his own. Kaleb is starting to play a lot more with Jakey and it is the sweetest thing in the whole world to watch them!

Jacob LOVES being on his belly!

Our big BOY! He is also our spit up baby!

I will try and keep updated from now on of what we are up to! As for the next week and a half, we are headed up to SLC!

Scroll down to see what we have been up to lately.....

Kaleb's Party!

Saturday we had Kaleb's 2nd Birthday party with his friends and family. We were lucky enough to get great weather and held it at the park! It was such a fun and nice day! WE decided to get a little ambitious this year and make Kaleb's cake since he loves balls I thought how hard could it be to make a few ball cakes. Well I am not sure we will ever try and do 3 cakes ever again. I am so lucky to have a husband who has some cake decorating skills other wise they would not have turned out like they did! I think the hardest part was getting the frosting to be the right consistency, but all because of Tim who did all the frosting they were a huge hit with Kaleb and all the party goers! Thanks to everyone who came it was so fun!

The Cakes!

He loves his Pal Scout!

Whoa! A football like Milo's!

Easter Weekend!

We had a very fun Easter weekend! Saturday we started it off with a egg hunt at the elementary next to my mom's place. Kaleb had fun he didn't however like the Easter bunny so I had to sit with him to get a picture. We then went out to Wheeler Farm with Kim(sister) and Milo (nephew). They had activities going on all day, but by the time we got there they had run out of eggs but it was still fun. We got to see all the animals and take a tractor ride they even had a special scales and reptiles exhibit which was very cool! Then Sunday we went out to my aunt Michelle's for Easter dinner and a Easter egg hunt for Kaleb! It was lots of fun with Kaleb this year he was so funny with getting the eggs we had to do most of it since he would just pick up the eggs that were balls!

Can you tell he was not happy about being that close the the Easter Bunny!

Fun in the Sun....

So the last weekend in March we went down to St. George with my mom, Robyn (my sister), my nephew "B". Mandy( friend) , her daughter Karlee, and Stephen (my brother). We also picked up Sarah (my sister) and Alethia (my niece) in Cedar! It was so nice to have some great warm weather. We did some shopping and took the kids to the pool and park. Stephen was such a trooper and was so willing to play with the kids. They sure love their Uncle Stephen! Only a few of us came home with sunburn's unfortunately Jakey boy was one of them, I completely forgot to put sunscreen on both kids but Kaleb has my olive skin tone so he doesn't burn but Jacob got his daddies white skin tone lets just say I will try to not ever do that again! IT was fun seeing grandma and having her be able to meet Jacob and B for the first time. It was so wonderful to spend time with everyone and let the husbands enjoy some time without the kids. Even though that weekend Tim was in class just about the whole time we were gone! He has started a new job and is doing financial services and has had to get licensed to sell life insurance so that is the class that took is whole weekend! We can't wait to be living down there in just about 3 weeks! Sorry for the picture overload!
