Jonathan has troubles waking up and going to the bathroom at night and so he has to wear a diaper to bed. He is good at putting the diaper on himself. One night my mom and Daniel were helping him get ready for bed and they gave him his diaper to put on and he put it on his head an laughed.
It was hilarious! For those of you that don't know Jon, he has quite the since of humor. He may be mental disabled, but he is no dummy. He is good about getting a laugh out of people.
Since that night he has done it every once in a while. This captures what it looks like. I love this kid he cracks me up! Hope you laughed as hard as I did when I saw him do this......

R to E to D

I was looking through mine and Daniel's wedding pictures and I came across my RED shoes. My mom bought these so I could wear them on my wedding day. I love these RED shoes, and yes you heard me correctly they are RED not red. I have to say these are the coolest wedding shoes ever, I used to think that white flip flops and tennis shoes were pretty sweet, but the RED shoes are so rad. I have to admit though at the end of the day tennis shoes probably would have been a bit more comfortable. But pain = beauty. Ha Ha Ha. (I keep hearing the song "Your so vain"....hmm I wonder why?)

"Not a walk in the park"





Here is a little picture in the lovely Canadian Mountains. It was so exquisite up there! Tanya & Joel, friends of ours that we were visiting in Vancouver BC thought of this great hike that we should go on. Tanya warned us that it would be difficult, but its worth it. I warned them that I am really out of shape and hadn't worked out in months. Also warning them it will take a while to get it done. But I love hikes and so does Daniel so we were up for the challenge.





As we began the hike we were greeted with a sign that says "this is not a walk in the park" I wish I had a better picture so you could read it more clearly. I thought to myself there is no way that the hike is going to be that bad. As we went on the hike I proved myself wrong. That was the toughest hike I had ever been on in my life. I stopped a million and one times just to catch my breath. When we finally made it to the top it was well worth it. I wish I had pictures of the view, but I was to freezing cold when I got to the top , that I couldn't pull out our camera.

When the Honeymoon ends

Daniel and I have had a lot of trials since we got married. The video pretty much explains it all, but I will give you brief summary of what happened. 
The week we got back from our honeymoon we had to move my stuff out of my moms. The only time we had to move was the night that our friends came into town. And they were staying with us. Well the house was a mess and there was hardly room for us to even walk around. Things turned out okay, it was just a crunch to get everything done. 

Then the following week we went to our friends wedding down in California. It was about a twelve hour drive. It was such a wonderful wedding. We had a blast! The night of the wedding Daniel was up all night hugging the toilet. The next morning Jake and I felt sick but ok enough to go on. As we are driving Jake gets really sick. We stopped at a rest stop for a couple of hours to recuperate. And off we went again, we didn't last to long and ended up at another rest stop for a few hours. When we felt better we went on the road again, but shortly after leaving I got really sick. I will spare you all the juicy details, but we came to find a motel just around the corner. And stayed the rest of the night there. 

After we got back things were good for a while. Then I came down with this really bad cold that just didn't want to go away. I passed it on to Daniel and his turned into a nasty sinus infection that lasted forever too. 

The next adventure was the day after I was feeling better from the cold I was rear ended on my way to work. My neck and back are really sore still.

About a week after that I got an eye infection and lost most of my vision in my right eye for about a week. 

And the day I went to the doctors to have my last check up on my eye I went home to do the dishes and the dish washer didn't do its job. As I was washing the dishes the glass broke and I cut my hand. My neighbor took me to the ER were I got stitches. 

Well I hope the drama is over and I hope you like the video!

The LEAF BLOWER


Most of you know about my brother Jonathan. He has ,and always will be a big part of my life. One of Jon's passions, or what should say is addictions, is wading or playing around in the pool. One day I was at Target and I saw these pools for sale. and I thought to myself "Jon would love this". An image of Jon's face popped into my head and I imagined how much joy this would bring to him, needless to say I got the pool. When I arrived home it was late at night about an hour past Jons bedtime. But I was so excited for his new toy that I couldn't wait to tell him about it so I ran upstairs and jumped on his bed and yelled "I got you a new pool", the look on his face was priceless! He was so excited. He about jumped out of the bed to grab his swim trunks. But I assured him that we would go soon and that tonight was to late to go.

The pool actually set around for a few days until I got the motivation to fill it up with air. We didn't have an air pump so my good friend Crystal and I went to the local GI Joes store and got us an air pump. We get home and I plug it in and it doesn't work. I was so upset. I mean the thing was brand new. When I calmed down I looked at the directions (which is something that I loath to do!) Apparently you have to charge it for 12 hrs before it will work. LAME!! There goes another childs dreams, No Not today Jon will have his pool its 80 degrees out side I AM GOING TO SET THAT POOL UP IF IT KILLS ME.

Oh, I remember I have an air compressor in my car... it was one of those cheap ones, but I thought that it would do. Turns out it was a lot cheaper than I thought! I could blow more air in the pool with my lungs than that thing could do in 5min. CRAP I TELL YOU CRAP!

I was wracking my mind for ideas to come up on how to inflate this pool. A light bulb came on. I remembered that when you take a part a vacuum you can get it so the air is forced outward instead of sucked in. I take the vacuum apart and guess what these new vacuums don't work that way! I am going to give myself a stroke before this is over with.

Then I saw it the answer to my prays or maybe it was Gods way of keeping me from doing anything to drastic that may in the end hurt others or myself. Either way it was perfect!
The.........LEAF BLOWER.

Now why didn't I think of this before! (This is were it gets good... I feel like my inner red neck came out in me. ) Here I am on my pourch wear'in a bikini and my army shorts, with pig tails and haven't showered in a while and I am blowing up my brothers pool with a leaf blower.
It was beautiful. That pool was set in ready to go in under 25seconds. I think I may have set a record.... The pool was then filled with H20 and Jon and Scotty were in heaven. Hope you are able to experience their joy as you watch(ed) the video.
