Holiday Switch

Yes, it's true that I like me some good old Lifetime movies every once in a while. I mean what's a mommy got to do when she has the house clean and doesn't have any homework to do - ya - that's because I'm totally done. I finished up my bachelors degree in Family and Consumer Sciences. I will walk in May with my husband. I really liked this movie because we are dirt poor college students. A lot of days it's hard because we have hardly a clue of what's going to happen in our future, and it seems like so many have it all mapped out with success. But I got me some good husband that supports and loves me in ways that are undecidable. I also have the sweetest little boy ever. We have lots of love and everyday I strive to make my family happy because really there is nothing else that would make me more happy. Merry Christmas. I can't wait to post pictures of our very first at home!!

Hairdresser On Fire

Eh! Not to brag or anything unto that but.. Hairdresser On Fire Giveaway, Reagen is my sister-in-law. I have had the privilege of having her use her incredible skills on myself in the past. She can do an amazing blow-out plus she is absolutely exquisite! So ENTER! I DID  

Once Upon A Time

I LOVE this show!!! I'm devastated when the episode ends each week. It is so GOOD!!

Once Upon A Time

SNOW!

Lol, Lost his shoe! We had to go get new one's from inside.

 So CUTE!!

Ahoy Mateys!

For Halloween we dressed up as... You guessed it pirates!! I made parts of the costums and tried to use things we had all ready. I used this circle skirt tutorial for my pirate custom. I bought some yellow/mustard colored fabric and I'm planning on making another. I really liked the skirt a lot. I used a 99 cent pattern from Joann's for Thomas's ruffle shirt and it had a lot of plumage. I loved it and he looked good! I used this tutorial and pattern frontier vest for Asher's vest. I also used a 99 cent pattern from Joann's  for his pants. I made sashes for our heads and waist's and then we pretty much had everything else. Asher's trick-or-treating bucket is the same one I trick-or-treated with when I was younger. 

We went to a Halloween/birthday party for Russel Thomas's brother the Sunday before. On Monday we put a mustache on Asher and I really wish I would have taken a picture. 

We got to go on a hay ride

Asher in my boots after and he looked so awesome I laughed forever

I'm a big boy now!

Asher is growing up so fast, I can hardly believe it myself. Potty training is coming along. He defiantly understands the concept and feels like a pretty big boy when he goes on his big boy potty. It's a cool Cars convertible potty that you can attach to the big toilet. He really likes going on the toilet. Asher is starting to go more often. I get super excited when he goes and give him good treats. Today he got a bowl of ice cream with his breakfast!! Lol, I know I'm such a great mom ;) He loved that one. I love this next picture because Asher choose this outfit and put it on himself. I was pretty impressed with his fashion style.

 Asher loves to build, fix, and take apart anything. I have a good feeling he is going to be just like his daddy. He loves his blocks!! It's really cute when he builds the blocks into an animal and makes the animal noises and then gives them kisses. I love seeing him imagination come out.

What a stinken cutie! We love him to pieces!!

Our Little Drummer Boy

 

 Our little drummer boy. This isn't the first time he has tried to do things that are in close relationship with drumming. He set this drum set up himself while I was making Zuppa Toscana. Best recipe in the ENTIRE world. It always impresses your guests every time. 

School is going great for both Thomas and I. I'm so excited to be graduating and spending every second doing my mommy thing. I couldn't ask for anything better and I'm so excited. I'm getting pretty excited about being able to go straight to bed without having to stay up until homework is done. 

Thomas and I went down to Gunnison this weekend and applied for an English Teaching Job at a boarding school there. The guy gave him the job after he is done with school but we have to think a lot about it because it's for kids who are not succeeding in public school. We left Asher with Grandma Lyon and we have a fun 2 days just hanging out with each other. It was actually a incredible couple days. You have to have some of that every once in a while. I got's me some good husband!!! 

We visited Morgan in Ephraim and just loved remembering all of our youthful moments in that fun little town. It was way cute to watch Morgan and his roommates talking about girls and stuff. They asked me if marriage is all it's cracked up to be. I'm like, " It's way more.!!"  "You just gotta be as incredible as Thomas." Lol, they have big shoes to fill.
