Blast from the Past... Big 30th birthday Bash!

Awww look how cute this pic is! I bet it is the last time we were all together!

This is one of our senior pics! I love my friends!

This one was sophmore year or maybe freshman??? We did a progressive holiday date for "Sadies"... one of my all time favorite dates!

Lake powell... Senior trip! So much fun!

One of our vegas trips... Sorry it's upside down but its a funny pic so I had to add it!

I had to leave early to start college! So this is the goodbye pic!

We had pics done for junior prom... I am so glad I have all these pics from highschool with my friends!

Another senior picture!

This was another "Sadies date" We are at the Rez with a cake that Marsha Mecham made us with all our names and our dates names!

We are in Vegas! Me and Jenna got Henna tattoos so they made us tape our clothes away from it.

Me and Jenna at Brittneys Wedding!

Me and Tiff... I think it was freshman year?

Me and Jenna in Vegas... Silly us!

I know that it is probably wierd that I am throwing my own birthday party but it was an idea that one of my bff's Mandy Stefanoff came up with while at bunco a few months back and I decided to go with it! I am going to have a 30th birthday party for myself on July 2nd. It will start at 1pm and go as late as we want! I was going to have a sleep over but I got thinking that it probably wont work since we all have little kids that need their mommies! If anyone still likes the sleepover idea let me know! I also thought that we would float down the river but my husband said the water is way to high and we would all die haha! So.... it won't be exactly like the good ol' days but we will make it work! I was thinking that we could just go to my mom's in Leamington, have a potluck dinner, visit, and sit in the hot tub if we feel like it, watch fireworks, and enjoy our time together! We can also go down to the river and remember old times!

When I was young and living at home... I had the best birthday parties ever! I loved having a birthday on the 3rd of July because we would walk down to the river... float down it... walk back to my mom's house completely fried... watch fireworks... eat pepsi and doritos... and talk all night long... and the next day we would start all over with the 4th of july festivities. Now my birthday is going to work for me again... since alot of my friends live out of town, I thought that they would probably be coming home for the holiday so we could try to get together! I wish we could do it just like we did when we were young... but we now have different lives and I have many friends that are either pregnant or like myself just had a baby and not quite that excited to get into a swim suit and brave the river! Bring your swimsuit just in case you want to brave the hot tub!

So... all of my good high school besties... I hope to see you all there... and to all of my new friends... you are all invited as well! I can't wait to spend my last day in my 20's with all of my great friends! I was the first to turn 16 and became the cool taxi driver and now I am going to leave my 20's in style! I hope you all come!

My kids...

I may be a little partial... but... aren't my kids beautiful??

This has to be one of my favs.... Shayd has some beautiful eyes!

I love this one because it fits Justice to a T!!

This is my favorite pic of Whit!!

This one shows how tiny my little guy is!

This one is so cute! Just enough cowboy added to it!

This one shows how tiny his whole boy is!

Had to do one with daddy's cowboy hat!

Daddy and baby Whit... Love these boys!

Mommy and baby Whit!

Our little man laying on Grandma Sandy's blanket made just for Whit!

We got our pictures done a couple of weeks ago and I just love them! We didn't do our family pic yet because our photographer said we should do it when baby Whit is a little bigger so he doesn't get lost in the picture. We werent really planning on doing any of the other kids seperately but she caught a couple of really cute ones that of them that I fell in love with! She did a great job! I thought I would also give an update on baby Whit...

We took him to the cardiologist last week and got the all clear... she said she doesn't think he even needs to come back... Wahoo!!! He is up to a whole 6 pounds now. He is just so tiny I can't believe it. He is still wearing preemie diapers and clothes! We all love him so much and can't even imagine our lives without him! Justice calls him "baby it" which I think is so funny since we didn't know what we were having until he came. Shayda is a great big sister... maybe a little to helpful sometimes which is normal for any 5 year old! He has been a blessing to our lives and our little family! Thank you all again for your prayers... they worked! I want to ask for all of your prayers again for my little sister Shantel who is in the hospital trying to stop her labor... she is in the exact same spot that I was when I went into labor with Whit. Also my cousin Brett and his wife Alena just had their baby who was born with half of a heart. He is on the transplant list, so he has a long ways to go but he looks so good. I fell in love with the little guy the second that I saw him. He is in my prayers everyday and I hope he will be in yours!
