Blog instead of Ball

I know that all I pretty much talk about on here is basketball, but guess what? It's pretty much over! Tate is in Tulsa, OK right now getting ready to play his last games as a T-Bird and as a college athlete! How wierd. It's just been really bittersweet lately because of the ending but also a new beginning with my family. It's going to be nice to have Tate around a little more. It's also wierd that I am not there with him, I have always been with him at the Conference Tournaments! Wow! Basketball has pretty much been our lives. Well, I guess I can join up with Bonco with Lexi, or maybe start scrapbooking or HEY maybe blogging:) I hear that is fun! :) he he he. So anyway, we are having a big fun party at my mom and dad's house here in Orderville for Tate's big game on Sunday!!! This means that I will have the internet and can start my new hobby of blogging instead of Basketball! Nothing has been new with me. Although Kasen is pretty much all I do and I could go on and on about him. Some new things are he has two bottom teeth, he can say MaMaMa and reach out for me...I think he knows who I am:) He is rolling over and thanks to his little pot belly can sit by himself for a few seconds!! I just absolutely love that little guy and can't believe that he is going to be 6 months soon! Wow crazy!
I am starting to do more with my Mary Kay business and liking it more and more. So, if any of you would like to host a party for me...I have lots of fun Hostess gifts that you can get for doing that:) Or if you would like to buy any Mary Kay...give me a ring:)
I am actively invovled in my intermural basketball league and we are in the semi-final game on Monday! I am very excited and take it very seriously...well only to the fact that we must win, but playing is more fun now! But still very competitive of course!
GO BIRDS!

Life!

Hey all... Well i have been informed that I am very behind on my blogging. I totally know! It sucks because our house doesn't really have the internet so the only time I can get on is when I come to the school, which is rarely! Anyway, here is some news going on in our life!
Just had his appendix out almost a week ago. It was pretty intense. He just went to the doctor because he wasn't feeling very good and the next thing I know is that he is in the hospital getting CT Scans and heading into emergency surgery!! He hadn't ever had anything like that happen before so it was all kind of new and scary! He is doing so good though. He likes to milk this for all its worth though. I have to just laugh at him because every thing that I do makes his tummy hurt from his surgery! Come on guy...I had a BABY!! Seriously:) It's been so so nice though having him home for a couple days in a row! He probably is getting really sick of me! OH well!
Kasen is getting so fun. He is getting his first tooth and it's almost poked through! He just talks and jabbers and laughs and giggles. He is such a sweet little guy. I am so lucky to have such a good baby! We have started him on some vegetables and some rice cereal. He likes it okay, but won't eat too much cause he gets distracted to easily! He must have his Dad's attention span!
I just got called to be the 2nd councilor in the Young Women's presidency, I am excited to be in Young Womens but kind of bummbed that I will be missing The Biggest Loser cause of Mutual at 7 on Tuesdays! MAN! I am going to have to have someone tape it for me I guess!

Ft. Collins, CO

It took about 11.5 hours to get here, but we finally arrived at Bev's house and I was so excited. Kasen did pretty well on the drive, although I don't ever want to do this again for a long time, too bad that we have to drive home another 11.5 hours. What's great is that we will be home for two weeks straight! Its cold and windy here, so we have just been hanging out. Bev said that Courtney checked in some of here friends at her work. They said that was cool, and wierd also because all they did was say bev's name and courtney knew exactly who she was talking about. That's pretty much how good ol' Orderville is. Small town goodness! For the most part:) Well, that's about it. I hope that Tate wins his game today becuase they are not doing so hot right now!

My Crazy Life

Michelle has already gotten after me for being a Horrible blogger! I wish I had better internet at my house! Such is life I guess! Either way Michelle, still love you! You're blog is always very cute and up to date! You're much better than me!
Life is so crazy! Tate is so busy with Basketball and school. There are good weeks and bad weeks. Good weeks are when Tate has home games and gets to be home all week, bad weeks are when he leaves for 5 days! I know it may be bad but I can't wait for basketball to be over and when he can be here all the time. The past 2 years have been a hectic ride, mostly filled with basketball, that has been our lives! It's bitter sweet I guess with only 2 months left of ball. Life has to go on!! My life is still the same with Kasen. He is getting so big. We went to the doctor and he has officially grown off the charts. 28 inches 18.6 pounds! We are so proud of our big little boy! Today was the first day that I fed him rice cereal. It was cute. He didn't quite like it at first, but the more we did it, the more he liked it! It seemed that way anyway!
I am excited because Me, my dad and mom are taking the big drive to Ft. collins CO to visit my sister Bev and her family! It's going to be a fun weekend! Cold, but fun!

We finally caught Kasen smiling on camera. Everytime I try and take a picture of him smiling he always stops and looks at the camera so mystified as to what that thing could be! He is so much fun!

Michelle, we are coming home today because Tate is gone all week on basketball trips so we will come and see you!!! Yeah! Love ya!

Oh and yes, David and Jerry wore it when they were blessed, so did Ruger, Ethan and Colt. I think some of our boy cousins wore it too. Its so special!

Kasen Blessing

We blessed Kasen this past Sunday! It was so special. He wore my older brother Jimmy's blessing clothes! That in an of itself was very spiritual and special. I can't even describe the feelings that I had while Tate was blessing our son, he was so sweet. I sort of saw Kasen through the shoulders of his Grandpa's in the circle and he was so cute looking up at the lights in the chapel. I was overwhelmed with love for him, for my family and especially for Tate. It was Awesome! It was great because alot of our family was able to be there because of Thanksgiving and also because Tate had a game on Saturday, so alotof the family were here! Tate unfortunately lost his game, but I hope that things will be looking up for them!

Going to the SUU Game tonight! It's going tobe fun. I hope that they do better than they did on Saturday!! Kasen has on his SUU shirt. I will post a cute picture of him later!
