Hannah

So We have this picture of Marcella and Jon at the zoo last year. Every time Marcella sees it she says "Hannah". Then when we tell her no that's you. She says "NO, Hannah". It is pretty funny, because at first glance it looks a little bit like Hannah. What do you guys think?

So Jon is still gone and I am trying to occupy my time. So I am redoing a dresser for Marcella, I was hoping to be able to stain it, but it used to belong to my little brother Jason, and let's just say he had a lot of fun writing all over it. The only sad thing is I forgot to get a picture of it before. I will post one of it tonight after I get it finished I am excited. Well have a great day!

Fun

So I am sitting here all alone, because Jon went back packing for a week. It is the end of the third day he has been gone and he only has 5 more til he is home again, but who is counting? Marcella usually does pretty good while he is gone, but me on the other hand.... I'll let you know how I hold up. Take tonight for instance. I went to a shoe party. I think they now have every single kind of party, (it all started with Tupperware, I swear) but I have been to a bazillion parties lately. Anyways, I brought Marcella along because they have cute kid shoes. It was quite funny. I really wish I had a video I could play for all of you because she went crazy. She tried on all the shoes that would fit her and then started trying on the ones for women. Then the best part, she through the biggest fit I have ever seen because she wanted the ugliest pair of flip flops, the only reason she wanted them was because they squeak when you walk. (here is the link so you can check out the shoes and see the flip flops Marcella got) I know I need to work on my "you don't get your way when you throw a fit" but I just couldn't do it tonight, so she won. I will let you know if she ever even wears them to make it worth the $5.

Tomorrow I am hoping to find a place to live in Provo. I am giving myself two days to find one. Please wish me luck. Maybe I can get all of your opinions tomorrow I will take some pictures to see what you guys think. Then I can get a bunch of opinions, especially since Jon is gone. We will see how it goes. I really am hoping the first one I look at will be the winner, but I am guessing it will be the very last one I see.

So I know that everyone just gets on to check the pictures on blogs, so I found some cute ones. This one is of Marcella after we had gone up Millcreek Canyon with my mom, Caroline and Jeff. It was sure fun, and as you can see Marcella had a fabulous time playing in the dirt. (sorry it is a little blurry)



These next ones are of our trip to the cabin the end of June. We had so much fun. We floated down the river and played in the freezing cold water. Marcella had a blast playing in the dirt and eating rocks and sticks. She absolutely loves the cabin. Here we are playing in Moose Creek. It wasn't too cold and Marcella was having a lot of fun.



Well, I better get to bed if I want to get any sleep. I hope that all of you are having a wonderful day. love ya tons!

SuMmeR FuN!

This summer has been so much fun. It has just been filled with one adventure to the next. We just got back from the cabin and had the time of our lives. I will have to post some pictures from that trip later though. Here are some from our first trip to Lagoon this year.

It was Stake Lagoon Day so my mom, Jason, Nathan, Jon, Marcella and I went to Lagoon. we decided not to get passes for us staying with Marcella, and just take her on all the free rides. Besides why buy a pass for an 18 month old when it costs $20 and she most likely will scream the whole ride right? Well....

This was her face when we started moving on the train. She was so excited. It was pretty funny.

She had so much fun that right after we got off the train we went right back on it. This is Marcella and her friend Lily. They are exactly 2 weeks apart. The funny thing is they were both 2 weeks early too. They sure have a lot of fun together.

The other free ride, can you find Marcella? Jon got roped into going on this ride, mainly because I have already done this one with Marcella in Michigan. Thank goodness, just looking at this picture makes me a little sick.

We decided that since we would most likely come back again this year, we should find out how Marcella likes the rides. So we bought enough tickets for two rides. First the Boats.


Let's just say these pictures don't do it justice, mainly because she loved it so much she cried when we had to get off.

Then we dared the airplanes. This was going to be the deciding factor, if she loves the airplanes then she would love any ride. We put her in there and she just started playing with the joy stick.
She had so much fun! She wouldn't stop playing with the joy stick until the ride started and then when it made her go up she let go, it was pretty funny. She also was pretty sad when this ride was done.

You can't go to Lagoon without buying a corn dog and maybe some cotton candy. So I got my favorite thing in the world, a huge corn dog, and we got Marcella some cotton candy, as you can see... she didn't care for the cotton candy one bit. We could barely even get a piece in her mouth. but she had fun taking over my corn dog.

YUM!!
