Summer time

WOW! There has been so much goin on in the past couple months!! I can't believe it!! This has been a crazy summer!! I guess lets start with a couple months back.. Carson and Rochelle had their baby who is ADORABLE! She's got the chubbiest cheeks! I love her to death! She's getting WAY too big!!

I have been working for Donna Smith at Remax First part time, but recently got a job at Monarch Property Management and they want me full time so I start full time Monday August 1st.. So I'm sad to leave Donna but excited for a new adventure. I think I'm still going to work a couple nights a week for her just after 5 to help her out..

Between working crazy hours and staying busy with friends I've kept myself super busy.. I knew this month would be a little harder on me since on July 19th it had been a year since Lance's accident so I was kinda dreading that, but all in all I did ok.. He was in Denver at Craig Hospital doing a year follow up and they said he's made amazing progress.. And I can see it too.. He's been out camping, fishing, hunting.. Everything he use to do, he just adjusted it so he can still do it.. I'm so happy for him.. I know its been a challenge for all of us, especially him and his family but he's never gave up. I think it has made us all stronger. I admire him for his attitude.. I'm so grateful that I still have him around. I love having him and Carson down the street from me.. I don't always go visit, but its comforting to know if I need something I have my 2 big brothers..

Thats about it with me... Just working and playin and staying super busy.. Here are a few pics to catch up with...

April Already???

Wow times flies! I can't believe its April already!

Well a quick update on whats goin on with me.. And I still need to post pictures from my birthday.. I promise I will!

Well Easter was this past weekend and that was fun.. We went to our usual place on Saturday in Snow Canyon, I think Grandma calls it Hunt's Wash even. But we had our picnic and it was fun to see the family.. I can't believe how many cousins have or are having baby's! CRAZY! I sat and held Erin's lil girl, and she's adorable! It was fun having Lance and his family there.. We were all pretty nervous how gettin his wheelchair in the sand to where we sit was gonna work but dad just turned him around backwards and half drug it while lance used his controls so that was nice to have it so he could sit with us.. I ended up leaving, but everyone else went to go roll Easter Eggs. Lance's family had made a whole bunch and wanted to roll them down the dunes.. So instead of transporting Lance to his truck then back to his chair he just drove it down the road to where he could see all the kids on the dunes.. His chair is motorized so Lane held on to the back and Kelee ran next to him and I followed in my car so people didn't come flyin up on him.. And that worked out pretty well.. Then Sunday was conference so we all got up and went to Carson's for creamed eggs thats another tradition.. So all in all it was a good Easter.. Its nice havin the family down here, I just wish we could convince Tavia into moving down here too.. I would LOVE it..

Well I'm still answering calls at Remax for a couple hours a day, and then workin for Lance a few days a week to clean and organize his house.. But still looking for a full time job..

Other than that just hangin out and havin fun.. I will be sure to post some pictures since I haven't in forever!

Just have to keep pressin forward

Wow its been a while since I've wrote anything about whats goin on.. But really my life's pretty boring and I dont have much to talk about.. Just working and tryin to stay busy.. Its been getting warmer so I've been out shed huntin the last couple weeks, and have HUGE blisters to prove it.. LOL! Cowboy boots were not the best shoe of choice for hiking over oh I dont know, like 3 mountains covered in rocks and lava.. Smart one Tac..
My birthday is comin up next week, so I've been trying to decide what I want to do for it.. I think just hang out this weekend with friends and just be chill.. Not really lookin forward to it this year..
Other than that life's about the same.. Just tryin to work thru some stuff that I knew has been comin up for about 8 months now and its finally here and turns out its harder to watch the people I care most about go thru than I thought it would be.. But hopefully it turns out the best way possible for everybody involved.. So we'll see how it goes.. I'm learnin that I cant always fix the tough stuff, and that I just have to keep pressin foward and hope for the best.. And thats all I've been doin..
Well thats bout it for my exciting life.. Ha ha not so much.. I'm sure I'll put pics up of my birthday and Tavia is comin down to bless the baby and go shed huntin so I'll have better stuff then to write about

Western Jewlery- My new project

So I've started on a new project.. It started by me finding a necklace that my ex husbands friend gave me years and years ago.. I was up to Enterprise goin up to Dutchman's in my old Honda and was looking in the trunk for a flashlight and came apon a necklace that I forgot I had, well it was beaded and had a rowel in the middle.. Well I got this great idea for my Christmas presents for my friends to make a necklace and hang a rowel from it..
Well I went to Sunset Western to buy the rowels and was asking the lady at the counter what she thought matched the necklace I had already made best, and she fell in love with my idea and asked me if I'd sell them there.. So I called mom all excited and away it went.. I was a little busy at first so she ended up making quite a few and that got me started.. So all the ones she's made I dont have pictures of but these ones are mine and I've got a few done that I haven't gotten pictures of..

I already dropped some off at Sunset Western, they are all different colors and way cute.. I think they have 10 of them so far.. So drop by and see them.. They are really cute!!

I also have bracelets, I just don't have any pictures of those ones yet either..


This one is probably my all time favorite, I got the idea from a necklace I got at PacSun.. I love it

This one I took the picture to send to mom before I added the rowel... But I hung it a little different, I put a chain thru the hole in the rowel and hung it that way.. Turned out way cute

Black bull head earings

These are probably my favorite earings I've done so far.. I only have the pink ones made now, but will be doing a ton of other colors.. They turned out way cute

Just simple black rowels

This is one of the first ones I did, I actually had to take the rowel off my necklace that gave me the idea, cuz I couldn't find a rowel in town that was brown.. Only gold or black

This is the one that the lady at Sunset Western seen.. Its fun cuz I haven't found another rowel as big..

More of a simple one..

I'll sell any of these, and if they have already been sold I can make more.. I can do any colors that you want.. You can customize it however you'd like

New Year, New Decade.. 2010 Here I come

Wow what a year! Breakups, an accident, old friends, new friends.. So much happened in 2009 its weird where to start.. I truely found out last year who was really there for me when I needed someone..
This summer was probably one of the hardest I've ever gone thru with becoming single, and then a couple days later having my brother become paralayzed.. Friendships were tested and tried, and the true friends stuck right by my side thru it all, and I can't thank them enough. I got back to my old self again and I forgot how much I missed me =) But it was all for the best, I know I have made a lot of mistakes in my life, but am learning and growing from every wrong step I have taken, and had to redirect where I was headed.. A very good friend of mine told me back when I got divorced to "NEVER REGRET" Live and learn.. Thats what I'm doing.. And I LOVE it! I'm looking forward to this new year and new decade and see where it takes me.. I met some amazing new friends last year, and got back in touch with a couple very good old friends ;) I met back up with Shawn over the summer and am so happy that I did.. He's been there a lot for me over the last 7 years we've known eachother and I've had fun getting back to know him again.. Its always Go Go Go with him around and its been very interesting to say the least..
And along with Shawn came some amazing new friends, and some old.. I couldn't have gotten thru some things without Nikki right there with me letting me cry on her shoulder..
Coming back from Thanksgiving in Roosevelt this year I got home and went to Darrin and Nikki's with Shawn and the minute I walked in the door she grabbed me and hugged me to see how I handled things up north, and between a few tears shed with her and Shawn I made it thru.
Now Lance and his family have moved down here and I couldn't be happier! I wish that we could get Tavia down here, but know that probably wouldn't happen..
But starting out the year right I now have a brand new nephew named Boden Jode Wall that I can't wait to meet and spoil rotten =) Thats my job!! So I can't wait to see him.. And only have to wait a couple more months to have a brand new neice, the bean.. What a way to start a new year a neice and nephew.
I'm so grateful for all my friends and family that have done so much for me in 2009 and can't wait to make 2010 UNFORGETABLE! With them by my side I know I can achieve anything!

Ok so here we go again!
I can finally say it... Carson and Rochelle are having a lil bean!!! Lol.. Its a lil girl.. I never dared say it on the internet cuz I wasnt sure who all knew, but Cars said I could.. Cars calls her the lil alien and I call her the lil bean.. So I'm pretty excited.. I swear everyone I know and some I don't, but hear lots about are having babies.. Some are exciting, and another kinda scares me a lil bit.. LONG story!
So thats the news for Carson.. Everyone else I think is about the same.. Lance is in Vernal now playin with his kiddies, Havent talked to Tavia since they came down a few weeks ago.. That was fun spending time with them. They even came over to Shawn's and seen his deer horns and hung out for a second.. That was fun..
I'm still working away at both jobs and loving it.. Its nice being so busy.. Things got a lil boring a couple weeks ago cuz I got sick.. Yes I survived the swine flu.. A few of my friends got it.. It sucked.. I started feeling sick the day after Halloween when we were hauling cows Sunday, started coughing then the next day woke up and felt like I wanted to die.. Good times.. LOL So that was a very fun week... Then that next Saturday me and Shawnee drove down to watch Shawn and Brandon race their Legend cars... That was an experience... Shawn's shown me video's of Brandon and Brecken racing on Youtube and it looked like a blast.. I remember back a couple years ago he invited me a couple times and I didnt think it would be very fun so I kinda bailed.. Whoops! So I finally got my turn to go.. So we get all dressed up and head down to Vegas.. Singing very loudly on the way down btw.. We seen Shawn for a lil bit before we went and sat down and watched the other races before the boys.. Brecken was suppose to be in a top ten legend race but his car broke and he had to race the back up, so none of the boys raced until the main legend event.. There were 4 Snow boys all together racing.. Brandon and Shawn who are brothers.. And JK and Brecken they are Shawns cousins and they are brothers.. So kind of cool.. So all along before the race me and Shawnee are txting friends and family and telling them how we were nervous for them and everything.. So their race starts and we're all exciting pointing out each guy, there were a few restarts and then I look up and see Shawn had spun out on the track and right as I'm freakin out that someone's gonna hit him here comes Brandon and he smashed into Shawn.. And then another car hit Shawn after that and sent him flyin down the track and into the wall.. Brandon's car actually shot a couple flames, but he got out and they put him in the ambulance and on oxygen and took him off.. While the safety crew was trying to get out Shawn.. He was hit on both sides so his doors wouldn't open so he climbed thru the window and got into the safetty truck and they took him.. So me and Shawnee flip and call our moms freakin out and waiting for the boys to call or txt us.. Shawn finally txt me so I called him and he said he thought he broke his foot.. We couldn't go back into the pit, so we just waited by the front gate for someone to tell us what was going on when Brandon came and snuck us back.. Shawn's dad was looking at his foot, the impact of the crash actually split a line between his big toe and next one that was pretty deep so he knew he needed stitches.. So after sitting around and talking him into going to the hospital us four(Shawnee, Brandon, me and Shawn) jumped in the car and headed back to St. George to take Shawn to the Emergency Room.. We figured that would be better than trying to go to one in Vegas.. So we get there and they take X-rays and luckily Shawn didnt break anything.. Just smashed everything pretty good and needed a few stitches.. Brandon only bumped his knee pretty good but didn't need to be seen. So after a bad crash, a trip to the emergency room, and walmart for crutches, cuz Shawn wouldn't get the ones from the ER, we had a pretty exciting trip to the races.. Lets hope the next one I go to ends a lil less exciting.. But after they hauled Shawn and Brandon's car off the track the race ended in Brecken getting second. So Shawns been hobbeling around for a week, he only used the crutches Sunday then gave up on them..
Thats been pretty much my excitment for the last couple weeks.. The last week and a half has been pretty boring thank heavens..
I went to move cows on Saturday with dad all day and that was fun. We moved where we use to run our cows so it brought back a lot of good memories and I'm glad I got to go.. Dad told the Evan's that when they move to Modena they need to go on a Saturday so I can go again.. And I think Carson wants to go too, so hopefully they do.
Well I think thats about it.. Just been taking care of a sore foot and havin fun.. Other than the foot things have been going extremely good.. I have some amazing people in my life and am grateful.. There are some exciting times ahead..
