Drake's First Aggie Football Game

We are proud to be Aggies!

And so is he!

Flu Shots and Embarrassment = Suckers

We went a couple of weeks ago and got our flu shots. I was really dreading this. I hate watching Drake get shots. Not because the shots bug me, but him crying afterwards breaks my heart. I was so happy to see the nurse had a sucker for him! He cried for just a second until that sweet nectar touched his tongue. After that he was a happy camper!

After the flu shot.

This is where the embarrassment part comes in. My child is going to hate me one day. Ha ha ha but seriously I bet you are laughing at this picture as well.

And..... he was dang happy he got another sucker because of it!

Anniversary And Birthday All In One Day!!

We had a great day on the 14th. We are celebrating our anniversary this week by going to San Diego just the two of us. We are really excited to get away and have fun and relax together. Even though we are doing that, we decided to treat ourselves on our actual anniversary and went to Hamilton's for lunch.

Drake came with us to lunch and he was treated as well. He ate penne macaroni and cheese, halibut and creme brulee. He was in heaven.

Later that evening we headed out to Cooper's birthday party. Many of you may remember the day we got married, we also received a nephew the same day. That kid is now 3 years old and as cute as ever.

Happy 3 Year Anniversary

Happy Anniversary Josh! This has been the best 3 years of my life. I love you so much and am so grateful you are my husband. You are a good man! I can't believe it has been 3 years. It seems like yesterday we were walking out of that temple hand in hand. Look where we are now. We have one of the cutest kids I have ever seen! Here's to many more wonderful years!

I am so grateful!!

I am so lucky to even have my blog right now. I changed my email address from hotmail to gmail. When I got my gmail account, that also opened a new google account. I only wanted one, so I changed my email address on my blog to my new one and transfered information from my google reader to the other one and deleted my old google account. Well I didn't even think about it, and by doing that I erased my blog as well. I have been physically sick over this and have tried everything possible to get my blog back. I have emailed a ton of people who work for google, I have filled out a form over and over again to reactivate my account and it has come back to me saying it can't reactivate it because I couldn't provide enough information to prove it was my account, I asked the geek squad if they could help, called google and waited on the line for an hour and still didn't get anyone, and I have prayed like crazy!! It wasn't working this morning but this afternoon it popped up on Josh's computer so he checked it just to see if it for some reason would just start working (something we have tried and tried but knew wouldn't work) and it worked!! Our blog was no longer removed and the account was active. I don't know how this happened. We haven't received any emails explaining that they reactivated our account or anything. I feel really blessed to have our blog back. I love having a blog so friends and family can see what you are up to and how your family is growing and changing, but most importantly it has been a family journal. I have always been a great journal writer and have made sure I write down every memory. The last couple years I have done this through a blog. When I found out it was all gone, it made me physically sick and emotionally sick. So, with all of that said, i am so grateful to whoever reactivated my account. I will make sure now to get my blog printed into a book so we won't have this same problem again, and those of you who read this... please learn from my mistake and don't do this to yourselves!
