What we have been up toooooo.......

Hello to anyone that still reads this....I figure no one does anymore cause we get no comments...so maybe this is a a waste of time on my part...it is just nice to get to let out all our accomplishments.

1st off, new bikes..the kids got new bikes to ride around they love them and are doing well. We are probably going to start getting Addie used to the dreaded two wheeler. She is so big, and fiesty...the little stinker. She really thinks she knows more than all of us. And it is getting really OLD really fast!! She is so smart that she honestly thinks she knows more than all of us.

Second, Rylan has graduated 1st grade...I am going to have a second grader and a pre-k'er...or a kindergartener....weird...they may be sending Addie a grade up. Rylan walked very proudly up to the principal and his teacher to recieve a plethera of awards...starting with

Academic Excellence, the citizenship award, independant reader award, and the Accelarated Reader goal award...he did absolutely amazing this year IN TEXAS....I really wish that his teacher in Utah saw how amazing he really his. Too bad for her she didn't get to know my son, he has so much to share. He is so wonderful, my Rylan is my life. He has helped me get through so much in my life....don't get me wrong...Addie has taught me a thing or two...and I LOVE HER WITH ALL MY HEART! But Rylan and I have shared alot of hurts together. He is my strength...Anyway...he is doing fantastic, and LOVING that he is done with school....off to daycare full time for him, which means he can play his DS everyday..he is pretty excited about that. He has been reading Fablehaven and is almost done with the first book...also a book series called....hmmmm....something whimpy kid....don't know...I cannot remember....anyhow..he has read two of them fully, and I wasn't sure if he was really reading them so I would test him on it....and he knew the whole book...pretty amazing!!! It is very crazy to me that my 7 yera old is reading chapter books. Wow I am ranting on Rylan today...obviously I am proud of the little man! Also...funny thing, we are able to share shoes, and shirts..he is just getting too big too fast!!

Wesley is doing great with the lawn service, but unfortunately will have to put up his mower and weedeater during his academy for Temple PD. He is so excited for his new career. We cannot wait for him to start....still a little nervous, but I am excited because he is excited.

I am doing great at my new job at Extraco Bank...I LOVE IT!!!! This is truly my knack...I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT! I felt very confident going into the job, and still feel very confident....probably a bad thing is that I show the confidence a little much on my sleeve...and maybe get a little arrogant. I shouldn't...but I do sometimes...I just love it and know I am doing well...and it feels great!!!

Next weekend we will have my Mother in Law, Sister in law Tiffany, Brother in law Dan, and their two children Mckayla and Hyrum over and we are so excited to see them all...best of all we will have our Puppy back! We miss her so much and we will finally have her home with us.

Anyway...that is what is going on here, I am going to put pictures up of this past few weeks...Love you all!!!!!!

My husband is a police officer...wow, incredible...and scary! He starts in July...crazy stuff man!!

NEW HOUSE!!

This is our beautiful new home!! We are moving in this week! Here are the pictures!!

Also, I got a new job, I will be working with a local bank here in Temple and Belton!! I am so excited! I am sad to leave HEB, but I am excited that i will be contributing to my family..Here goes our new life without the Army...so far SO GOOD!!

ONLY 2 more days LEFT UNTIL WES IS OUT OF THE ARMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE CANNOT WAIT!!

LAWN SERVICE!!

Hello hello! Well Wesley is out of the Army in less than 1 week!! The count down is almost over!!! Wes has opened a new business called "Lonestar Lawn Service" it is registerd in our names and everything!! We are so excited! he is off going to his first lawn service right now. He is still working toward the police department, but this is what i think he is going to be happy. I don't think I have ever seen my husband so excited about something in my life. He is just as happy as a clam right now!! Anyway, I wanted to update you! Love you all!!

St Patty's Day, Easter....Getting OUT!

WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, well we have gone a few weeks with no posting...crazy me. We have had alot going on the past few weeks with Wes getting out of the army, life is a little.....unstable at the moment. BUT things are great!! On St Patricks day I had lots of fun at work getting all dressed up and if you all know me...which you all do, you will understand these pictures. Also we had a great time with some good friends of ours down here in TX, at an Easter egg hunt the place had over 50,000 eggs...YES people, it was CRAZY! WE DIDN"T HAVE ENOUGH SPACE FOR ALL THE EGGS...so the kids got jipped..ha ha. Oh well, it was a great time!! Also, Wes heard from the Temple PD yesterday, so FINALLY we can breathe alittle bit. We at least know he is still in the running...WHEW! ALSO, I was offered a job at Extra Co bank. A guy that comes into the store daily asked me if I would be interested...at first I w as a little hesitant, but I will be getting 40 hours a week, paid holidays, and 3 dollars more an hour than I am right now...so I would be dumb IF I hadn't applied. So I applied and go in for my interview next week. Wish me luck!!

The kids are doing fantastic!! Rylan has all A's in school still and his lowest grade is a 98 percent and he only has 1 the rest are 100's. GREAT!!

Addie is doing awesome as well, she is starting to spell things from memory and writing them down. It is absolutely amazing this little girl. Her 4th b-day is coming up in 15 days...it is incredible how time has flown with our two beautiful children.

We have two pet rats, Daisy and Indy...they are fun to have around and a good sub for our little Tash...man we miss her. (Tash is our boxer that is currently still in Utah ) Anyway, things are going as well as possible right now. We love and miss each and every one of you!! Here are some pictures from the past few weeks.

Hillarious Family FUN!!

We bought Guitar Hero World tour and let me tell you, it is HILLARIOUS!! Rylan is a true rocker and a side of Wes comes out, who knows from where...Addie and I are of course the singers..ha ha ha.

We haven't been up to much just working like crazy!! Wes is getting closer and closer to officially being out of the Army...AMAZING!! He got a letter back from the Temple PD he is on their list as #5 choice...so as far as we are concerned that is pretty good considering the amount of people that applied. He has Waco testing this weekend, then San Antonio next week. Anyway...we are doing well, and staying busy. Here is a video and pic of the boys!
