New Computer area Addition

So a couple of posts ago I mentioned I needed help with the desk area. I found this little shelf thing and thought it would work perfect, and it does. When I got it it was a cream coloor so I painted it black to match the desk and it worked wonders for keeping the little things under control.

My Blessings

As you all know Monday was my birthday and I have been thinking about all of my Blessings. So I thought I would list them.
1. Jared, my wonderful and supportive Husband
2. Kitrina, She is such a sweetheart and a big helper.
3. Ethan, I always Smile when he walks into the room if not before since I know its him because he shuffles his feet.
4. Collin, I love the way he Squeezes you around the neck.
5. The church and the knowledge that I can live with my Family Again.
6. My parents and thier willingness to put up with us while Jared was gone, and many other reasons.
7. Jared's parents are always supportive and their for us.
8. Since I live in washington it rains alot and today it didn't/hasn't yet. I always loved the smell after it rains but since it always rains up here I have forgotten the smell.
9. The freedom we have in the US because of what my husband does and the many other soilders.
10. The opportunity I have to teach primary, Because of this I have been reading the scriptures more.

These are only a few but the most important ones.

The Birthday boy (yesterday)

Here is a slide show of the Birthday party.

Make a free slideshow design

Another Screen will pop up to show you the slide. ( I couldn't remember the name of the one's my sister-in-laws use, if one wants to remind that would be great.)

Ethan Christopher Savage

Tomorrow Ethan will turn four. I will add another picture then. I wanted to post some pictures of him at past birthday times.

Not sure of the Exact date of this one but I do know that it was taken last year when my parents came to visit which was right around the first of April. So he was Three.

This next one he was two

This one was taken at Wal-mart when he turned 1 .

The day he was born. These next ones are just of him, not in any order.

Again, This time with Everyone

So the otter day they all had to have their favorite toy/Stuff animal and do ring around the rosie's. Hope you enjoy it, I certainly did.

Ring Around the Rosies

Ethan grab Ted and did ring around the rosies so I made him do it again so i could get it on tape. You can tell his speech is really improving.

Easter Morning

These are just a few picture from this morning. Collin started to feel Sick yesterday so he is the one laying his head on the couch with his basket. Kit was the eager one and found most of the eggs. And Ethan was just Ethan and went with the flow.

Collins phrase/questions

Everynight when I put collin down for the night or even a nap I ask him two basic questions. Who loves Him? and Who loves Mom? for a while I had to make him say that he loved me now he says with out promt but them he starts asking me Who loves...? So I would say I do and then ask him if he loved..., and lately he has been asnwering with the answer everybody. So Everybody loves Him, and everybody loves mom and then he moves on to Opa, Oma, Grandpa and Grandmommie. And so just you so you all know...
EVERYBODY LOVES EVERYBODY

A LITTLE HELP PLEASE!!!!

I have this desk area that needs a make over. I can't stand the mess, and I need some ideas. Jared puts some of his stuff here that he uses daily for work and needs some help keeping it under control. As you look at the desk to the left is a wall that we have hung two white shelves and then you have the desk. the next thing we have and have to keep is a filing cabinet which holds the printer. I need the filing cabinet but not sure if there is something else out there that work better. next to the filling cabinet I have a corner self that holds a few things. it is kind of small so a bookcase won't work unless it is skinny and not to tall since there is also a shelf above the corner shelf and the filing cabinet. Any ideas Anyone?

Silly Pictures

Here are just some silly pictures of Collin wearing mommy and Daddy's Stuff. Mom shoes and Dads Sunglasses.

Portrait of Christ

About a year ago I went to a Relief Society activity were we could display a talent that we have. I, of course displayed a couple of cross stitches that I have done. Another lady also had one and it was of Christ and ever since then I have wanted to do one and now I have, so here it is. It hasn't been washed or pressed, I usually do that just before I go have it framed, so it is a little wrinkled.

Bucket boys

I have these tubs that I use for laudnry instead of baskets, Since my laundry room is so narrow. Yesterday I was folding a lot of clothes and had empty tubs around and Collin climbed in one and it was so cute. So then Ethan had to have a chance to climb in one. My boys are so cute and funny. Collin thought that he was going to get into trouble for climbing in one that he had to try and hide. Ethan got in one and I asked him to smile and he looked kinds of Evil, or mad as you can see.

The Silly boy

Ethan has been potty trained for over a year now, but was still wearing pull-ups at night. Jared told him if he woke up dry he could have some M&M. The past five nights he has woken up dry. So we gave him a bunch for the days we missed since he hasn't been feeling good. So yesterday I caught him lining them up, and took a picture. When he finished lining them up he put them back in the container and then ate them.

Birth Records finished

I have done a birthrecord for each of my kids. I started Kit's while I was still pregenant and finished it while we were living in Augusta, GA. She was about three and half. I started Ethan's about six months ago and just finished it about three weeks ago. I then started Collin's and finished his last night. So here is what the two boy's looks like. I haven't framed them yet so it is just the fabric. My next project is one of Christ. I hope to finish this soon so I can move on to Christmas presents, for my family.

New Train

So there is this yard sale site i have used to sale some of the stuff we don't use anymore and at the same time have found things for a really great price. I found this cool toy. The kids have loved playing on it. I was surprised to see how big it was. When I found it I just thought it was a train that would go by it self, didn't think it was big enough to ride on.

Missing Pictures

So this year we went to my parents for Christmas, on the sper of the moment and Jared took a video of christmas morning but my Dad took the picures and I forgot to get a copy before we left so we will have to wait for them to show up in the mail.

My Christmas surprise this year was Jared saying on Tuesday morning that he could still get the two weeks off for christmas break and we could go see my parents. So we went and surprised my parents by just showing up on the door step. We told my Brother so at least on person knew we were coming. and we had a great time. So we left the night of the 19th after about 15 hours of driving we showed up at my parents saturday afternoon. We stayed until the 29th and drove home. We then went out on the 31st and bought a brand new car. It is a 2010 Toyota Corrola S, the color is red. We did this because we wanted to get the Tax write off for the sales tax.

Cool New Hat

My Brother and New sister in law bought Collin a car fixing tool set for his birthday. It came with this cool hat, which is a little snug on his head. they wanted a picture but thought it was so cute i has to share with everyone else.

New Pictures

So this year we just got the Kids' pictures taken. Here is a preview of what they wore. The dress Kit is wearing she got from my mom for her birthday. I got the boys matching clothes that would also match kits dress. They did a great job and the pictures will go out soon. Some in Christmas cards some later since I have to wait for the disk to arrive and then have prints made.

Six Years Old

This first picture is her opening her Gift from her brothers, it was a baby Cinderella.

This next one if a horse she got from Jasmin, a friend from school.This next one is from the neighbor kids she plays with.

Kit was able to have her first friend party this year. The theme was Princess of course. We had brownies instead of cake. We played a few games and the kids had a great time. Just a little disappointed that only three kids showed up. But other than that it was a success.

Can't Sleep

Collin has a favorite blanket. My mom made the balnket to go with the nursery decor we made when Kit was born. I had to wash it and it wasn't dry by the time it was bedtime. We tried for about 20 minutes to get him to stop crying. i finally gave up and we sat and watched it go around and around in the dryer.
