I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. I am a Christian, a republican, a DG, and an officer. I am proud of all my titles and the groups I associate myself with. I have a fabulous life that is filled with loving family and lots of friends. I am not perfect, but I pride myself in always being me. You either love me or hate me. There usually is no in between. I am always right; at least I like to think so. I have so much compassion for life and all of God's creatures. I am outgoing and energetic and thrive on attention. I wear my emotions on my sleeve and often times attempt to act as if nothing is wrong when it obviously shows. I love to sing my favorite songs at the top of my lungs while driving in my car with the sun beaming on me and for a moment pretend there are no worries in the world. I won't be the next American Idol, but it is still fun to pretend. I can't wait to meet my boys in twenty years and to see all their accomplishments in life. Life has been an amazing journey thus far. I am looking forward to all that life still has to offer me and thank God for my wonderful husband who will be right by my side to share it all with.
On June 20th, 2008 (Friday), Nana Patty and Papa Rod came over so we could celebrate their birthday that they had on June 2nd. We had a BBQ and watched the boys ride their bicycles outside. We were also pleasantly surprised by a visit from Brent, Jessica and Kendra Blankenship. They were eating at a restaurant down the street and decided to stop by. Kendra is getting to be such a big girl. She is so animated and always smiling. Just like her mother she has already picked out a favorite between the twins. She couldn't stop watching and reaching for Colton. Of course Colton loved the attention. While I played with Kendra the boys decided to play rough with Auntie Jes. They wrestled, played tickle, and made Auntie give them piggy back rides. I think they wore her out :) It was definitely great to see them.
After the Blankenship's left we ate dinner and enjoyed yummy Drumstick ice cream cones for dessert. Nana helped me get the boys ready for bed and put them down. At 10pm us adults finally sat down to watch the movie Fool's Gold. About an hour into the movie my Dad passed out. My Mom decided that it was time for them to go home. Aaron and I decided to stay up and watch it. The movie didn't get over until after midnight and poor Aaron had to get up for work at 4am. Below are some pictures from our night. It was great spending some time with my parents and the Blankenship's.
