Sunset.

So with this new job i have to get all new clothes. If more of a dresser work place. And im totally digging that. I cant wait to get all dressed up and look all cute everyday. Im really excited for that. So anyways Saturday Logan took me Shopping. Oh yeah i was able to get 4 shirts, 2 pants and new shoes. Still need to get a few more so im not wearing the same thing over and over again. Lol But i was happy the shoes i got were normally 50 bucks and i got them for 10. Yeah that was the most exciting thing i got. Lol.
After shopping Logan wanted to take Connor and i out to dinner. Logan told Connor to pick where he wanted to go and guess where he picked.... CHILIS. Out of all places he wanted to go there. I have no clue why there but thats where we went and it. It was so good i haven't been there in years so i was really happy that Connor picked that.
After a long day in Salt Lake Logan wanted to have time with just the two of us. So we loaded up the 4 wheeler and headed up to the Copper Pit to watch the sunset. Lets just say that was AMAZING to see. The sun lit up all of Tooele and over the water was just pure amazing. It was so nice to just set up with Logan and just talk. We never get to do that much anymore so it was nice to just talk with him.
Im one lucky girl to have these to wonderful boys in my life. I dont know where i would be without them in it.


The picture isnt the best but you can just see how pretty it looked.
It was getting ready to rain so i thought it made it look so neat.
I just love this picture.
One boy and one girl, totally in love.
It still amazes me how big the pit really is.

We are the teachers


Connor is in the WHY stage now.

Everything is always why mom. Why do i have to get dressed, why does the birds fly and not walk, why do i have to take a bath, why do cars go fast. Its why after why after why.
While we are driving all you her is why, home come, because why. Before i would be bugged by it and just say Because Connor. I would get frustrated and just want him to stop talking cause it was always the same question over and over again..

But one day in the car he asked me why do you love me mommy.?
I was lost for words, how do i tell me son why i love him. There are a million and one reasons why i do.
Do i start naming why i love him. Do i just say something short and sweet, or what do i do. I finally told him lots a reason why i love him. And he tode me awh Mommy i love you to. Melted my heart.
After he asked me that i thought to myself. I'm Connor teacher, everything i say or do Connor learns from me. All the things he does bad or all the things he does good he has learned from him mommy. He is asked all these why question cause he is wanting to learn, he want to know all things in this world of his. He want to know why birds fly and not walk, he wants to know why cars drive fast, why i have to go to work, why that person is walking, why dogs dont like cats, he want to know all and im the one who needs to teach him why they all do that stuff. Im Connor teacher and i need to teach him..
Im now taking my time and explain things for him, even if he does get it and asked my why again, i know that even if i have to repeat myself 30 times i will take the time and teach him everything i know. In the end Connor will know all the WHY's.


Connor I love you for this smile of yours!!

I LOVE YOU BOO BOO

Turtles and Cars


Sunday we headed into Salt Lake to go hang out with Megan (Chad ex girl friend)
We have been meaning to for such a long time and finally we were able to. So we went to lunch and headed over to her house to tie dye some shirts. Connor had such a fun time getting paint all over him self and he was happy he got to make a complete mess of everything. I wish i took picture of his shirts but i didn't. Ill post them later. :) But at Megan house they have lots of animals. Horses, turtles, birds, dogs, and cats. Connor was in love with the turtles and horses, we wanted to take them home so they could sleep with him. Haha what a nerd. :)
Its was nice to get to talk to Megan about the whole Barb thing, she know just what I'm talking about, it was nice to have someone understand me. I cant wait till we are able to hang out again.




Tuesday night Logan really wanted to take Connor to the Drive inn movies.
The movies were Cars 2 and Zookeeper. I was shocked that Connor stayed up the whole movie of cars but as soon as it was over he was out cold. :) So was mommy i passes out in Zookeeper. ooppss. I can never stay up through both movies. lol
