10 day you challenge:10 secrets

1. I am absolutely terrified of flying! Whenever I absolutely have to fly I will hyperventilate everytime their is any turbulance at all. Seriously, ask my hubby or sister!! I totally drive them crazy when flying.
2. I gave up going to college and getting a degree to have my baby, and I couldnt be happier! I feel like being a mommy and a house wife is the greatest job on the planet and that I am born to do it. I wake up every morning feeling like the luckiest girl on the planet!
3. I am my toughest critic and am constantly feeling like I never do good enough. Maybe this makes me a perfectionist? If I dont do something absolutely perfect then I beat myself up about it inside.
4. I have a serious sweet tooth and alot of times would take an ice cream cone over having dinner or lunch any day:)! Yes this drives my husband crazy!
5. I have a serious love for clothes and shopping! I know most girls love to shop but I think I could spend my whole day at the mall just looking at all of the styles of clothing. Even when I am just walking down the street I am always noticing what people are wearing. Most of the time I will remember what someone was wearing the day before rather then their name!
6. Sometimes after a long busy week I just need to chill on the couch with my family and crash. It is hard for me to constantly be on the go without any down time.
7. I am incredibly east going. You know those high maintiance girls that have to have everything perfect? Well I am the complete opposite. Through life experinces I have learned you just have to go with the flow. This attitude has made me who I am today.
8. My life motto is "come what may and love it" this quote was given my President Monson and I absulotely LOVE it. What a great example he is in my life. As long as you have faith in Heavenly Father and a brightness of hope everything will be ok. Life is so beautiful and should be spent being happy!
9. I am a serious home body. My husband is my perfect match because he is the same way. We would much rather be curled up together on the couch watching a good movie then being out on the town!
10. I am the happiest I have ever been in my whole life. I have the most amazing daughter and husband in the world and I feel so grateful to be blessed with them. Everyday I try to be the best I can be for them:)

I am doing this challenge to take up some spare time and also because it will make me a more consisten blogger. Often times I become bored of blogging and dont know what to write about. This will keep me entertained:) On a side note, here is a pic of my girl grocery shopping with mommy and daddy! (Yes my hubby does grocery shop with me and I love it more then anything:))

4th of July

I know we are almost in Aug but I totally spaced posting about our 4th of July weekend. We had a wonderful day starting with the Idaho Falls parade! Kennedy was a good sport and was quite entertained by all of the floats and people. After that we went shopping and had lunch. We went to our friends mom's house after and played games until the fire works. Kennedy had about had it by them so we had to leave about a minute after the fire works started. It was ok though because she was such a good little trooper the whole day I didnt mind leaving early! We even missed all of the traffic:)! Here are some pics of our great day..

at the parade!

Summa time:)

I know I always say its finally the summer time but I am pretty sure its safe to say its here for good..hopefully:) we have been spending lots of family time at the park lately and I love it! Its hotter then ever here and that makes me soo happy! I love my little family so much and spending time with them makes me the happiest girl in the world! So grateful I get to be with them for eternity!!

Kennedy's first Summer!!

 she has a big personality for such a liitle girl:)

Kennedy is now 15 pounds and 6 months old! Time is flying by and we are loving every second of our time watching little Kennedy grow. Can you believe she is already 6 months! Looking forward to spending this summer with our little Kennedy:)

I LOVE

This quote and felt like sharing..

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Summer is officially here!

And we absolutely LOVE it!! Kennedy and I have layed out in the sunshine twice already! At first she was hyperventilating because she had never felt the warmth of sunshine in her life..poor girl! Dont worry though, because now she cant get enough of it! Kelin is busier than ever this semester but he is enjoying his classes because they are mostly all accounting classes. He is doing an awesome job though juggling his classes, work, and being an excellent daddy/husband! He will be graduating next fall so in almost one year! I couldn't have picked a better man to marry:)! We are having so much fun everyday just being together and Kennedy really brightens up our home so much! I am so ecstatic that is it once again summertime and we get to bask in the sunlight for 4 short months! We are so grateful for them though! Rexburg is even finally opening up an outdoor pool! Woohooo i cannot wait to finally be able to go swimming with my family outdoors! Oh and this weekend is mother day weekend and Kelin and i are both so grateful to have such wonderful mothers in our lives. Both of our moms are such great examples to me of the woman I would like to become one day. I cant believe that I also get to celebrate this special holiday! Being a mom is the most wonderful job I could have ever imagine having. I feel more love and happiness around Kennedy than I ever imagined I could possible feel. How grateful I am to my Heavenly Father to have given me such a wonderful husband and daughter. I am truly blessed to have each of them in my life and they make each day the best day of my life.
