Sunny and in the 60's

Today was so nice, I went on a walk with my friend Lynsee. Neither one of us had been on the bike path and so we decided to explore.I love how you can see the temple from anywhere ion the town. It is up on the hill and super pretty. It glows at night with all of the lights.

This is a little branch of the Snake River. I thought it was really pretty. It is right next to the bike path. You can still see a little bit of snow, it is almost gone though.

Jacob got into BYU-I!

Kickboxing!

Lynsee and I right after kickboxing class. She is my support, on days I don't really want to go. This day we worked our legs. It was hard core. Any who, I am so glad that I have someone to go with.

You get kinda parched, so we have to drink plenty of fluids.This is a pic of how happy we are when we are done.

Do you think I can sew???

Since we don't have anything to use our spare bedroom for it is my new craft room.
My Mother-in-law gave me this sewing table, fabric scraps and basket of sewing treats for Christmas. My mom gave Jacob and I the sewing machine for Christmas. I am going to try to sew something this week but who knows. Next semester I am going to take a sewing class, then I will be a pro.

My mother-in-law told me they were having a sale at Joanne's on patterns for $1 each. I had to just go look and then I got addicted. We got 18 patterns and saved almost $300.00. I got one for Table Toppers ( Place mats, table cloths and table runners), one for window covers, three for outfits for me, and outfit for my mom, 2 for Halloween costumes, and 10 for different baby stuff. I figures the baby stuff would come in handy for all the baby's that people are having in our ward. If I ever learn how to sew.

This is the pattern that Jacob bought me for Valentine's day. I thought it was super sweet. He wanted me to have something to learn on. Then he said that someday our baby could wear it.

Denise, This one is for you. These two dresses are super cute and they would look adorable on Alia. You can look them up online and see which one is your favorite or if you even like them. I can tell you the number so you can look it up.

This one Jacob thought would look cute on Alia too, so we got this one for an idea.

I thought this was super cool because then you can make you crib set in any color or pattern you want to. It doesn't look to hard either.

This one I just thought looked fun.

I really like this one because it has diaper bags, burp cloths, changing pads, poppy pillow, and bib. They are probably super hard but I am going to be a pro, lets just remember that.

Stupid people!!!!!!

I am tired of life and stupid people who say stupid stuff. Instead of talking they should just stick their foot in their mouth.

Talking to Alia and Denise via the PS3!

We have had our PlayStation eye since before we moved, however we were to lazy to figure out what was wrong with our Internet to get it figured out. Anywho, we finally did and were able to see and talk to Alia the other day. It was super fun and cool to see how she is growing.

This is when Denise was trying to get Alia to wave to us. She wasn't sure about the people in the tv saying her name. Notice Jacob and I are in the bottom right, I was waving at her and saying hi!

I told Denise to bring Alia really close to the camera. She got a little scared. Poor girly!She calmed down after a minute. Isn't she the cutest!

Anyway, I wanted to share my fun times with you guys. We miss Alia and her mommy and daddy very much. We can't wait until we can go visit.

Update on Nicole!

So Nicole is home and she is on bed rest. She is getting board but it will be good for her and the baby. I am sure it is not easy being on bed rest with 2 year old Benjamin running around. Anyway, I will keep everyone updated.
