Captain Help me put out the Fire!


Jake went to the Cottleville Fire Department today for a preschool field trip. He was able to touch the jaws of life, hold the fire hose, and set in their new fire truck. The captain geared up with everything on boots, gloves, mask, coat, helmet and breathing tank. Jake was so scared he wouldn't even touch him. We had a long discussion about why he shouldn't be afraid. That in a fire that is who you would see coming to save you if Mom and Dad couldn't. He told me he wanted me to save him!

Scooter Training!


Lauren decided she wants to be like the big kids. So she took over their scooter the other day. She worked so hard on getting up on the scooter but it just didn't work. But it sure did keep her entertained for awhile.

Nellena's Wedding


A few weeks ago I was able to fly out to Salt Lake to do Nellena's hair for her wedding. It was fun to get to visit with everyone. I really enjoyed going to the Bountiful Temple. It was my first time going to that temple. Thank you Nellena for flying my out. I was also able to visit with my sister Jill and her family before they left for France. It was a great little vacation for me.

Holly Goodrich, Tracy Bonadio, Leslie Harms Tag your IT!
If you don't have a blog put it on your facebook wall! If you do have a blog and read this share your blog with me in the comments Thank You!

This was fun! Thanks chelsea! Just don't hold me accountable for some of the things I said!HA HA Cute idea to get to learn some fun things about others.
3 SURPRISING FACTS

1. I repelled off a 300 foot cliff comando! Comando is going facefirst not feetfirst!

2. I kissed Ronnie Vannucchi the drummer from the band The Killers. In High school of course.

3. I can cut and highlight my own hair.
3 OBSESSIONS

1. I'm a neat freak! I've always been told I'm a Perfectionist! Jason says he can't even put a cup down, because I will take it and put it in the dish washer.

2. I must say I am obsessed lately with what I eat. I look at the ingredients of everything I eat. It makes me go crazy sometimes. High fructose corn syrup, bleached flours, hydrogenated oils, and refined sugars are in everything. It's hard to find food that doesn't have those in.

3. OK! You can't repeat this to others. I am a Picker/Popper. I pick anything but noses, and other gross places you may think of. My babies never had baby acne Mom took care of that.
3 FEARS
1. When Lindsay was 2 she fell into a lake at a family reunion. I had to jump out of a 2cd story window to get down into the water to save her. Now since then I am afraid of my kids drowning. I even have night mares about it.

2. I am terrified of needles! I used to be a Medical Assistant/Phlebotomist. I had no problems sticking other people with needles. But I was never the guinea pig when we were getting trained it terrified me. I had all my kids natural because of that fear! They showed me an epidural needle. There was no way I was getting that in my back!

3. I can't help Jason do any electrical work in the house. Electricity scares me. I thinks its because Jason yells loud every time I touch wires to try to tease me.

About Me

Just a little web site to keep our family and friends informed. Out in our new Hometown of O'Fallon, Missouri. We just all keep growing up and getting older. I am a mother of 4 fun loving active children. They sure keep me busy and I love every minute of it. We all have adjusted well out here in Missouri. Thank goodness we haven't seen any tornadoes though. Jason is very busy with Chiropractic school so I have been put in charge of the blog. I think he did that on purpose to teach me how to use the computer. Our family is so very blessed we love just to be with each other and having a little fun. Now we just try to get Dad to talk about other things besides Gross Anatomy and how our body works. But we love him all the same. We think of all of you often and miss you all(now i talk like a missourian).
