and...another!!

Sorry this picture is kind of blurry. But this is sooo adorable.. My mom and I just made some

for the grandparents. The clothes pins are what you put the name and day of the month for each person in the family then clip them on the ribbon for the month they belong on. It is super cute!!

Some crafts...

Ok... here is a couple of pictures of the crafts I have done Lately..

there will be more pictures to come..

These two are pretty much the same.. other than the colors. one is brown and cream and the other one is red and black. I can do almost any colors you'd like, or any saying you'd like. Also, I can put it on any material, whether it be wood, glass, etc.

This one is on my wall. It is in 8x10 frames hung on a curtain rod. Its pretty big, but I love it.

I have a few more pictures I need to put up, I will work on them. Let me know if I can do anything for you.!

Ok... So... I really need to get better at this blogging thing...

So here is a short update..

I am still working at Yellowstone Lumber (Formerly known as the Yellowstone Do it Center.. They changed their name just a week ago.) And in April I am starting school at Evans in Rexburg. So come see me!!!! I would love to enhance the beauty you already have!! Ü

Skylar is still working for his dad. And just hangin out!

Christmas Time

Howdy to all of our friends!!
Since I last blogged.... Sky and I have moved from Idaho Falls back to Rigby. And we are loving every second of it. We were put in the nursery at church, and its sometimes a challenge, but we love interacting with the kids each week. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving and we hope you all did as well. Then came the time to put up the christmas tree!!! I was SOOO excited to finally have my own tree to decorate and put presents under. I love the smell of it, and I love the lights.
Christmas time is one of my very favorite holidays, not only for the presents and fun, but for the meaning. It gives me time to reflect on what I have, and makes me even more thankful than before for the blessings and knowledge I have been given in my lifetime.
I know this is short, But I will write more next time. Have a Very Merry Christmas and enjoy
your Holiday activities!

UPDATE!

ok.. so i've been really bad about this whole blogging thing... and I appologize! But YES!! we are FINALLY married! and we absolutely love it! it is the best thing ever!! It happened on July 17th.. and it was the best day of our lives!! As of right now... I am working at Yellowstone Do It Center in Rigby... and Sky is working for his dad running 3 different crews and putting in a ton of hours.. He is working nights remodeling the Ammon and Blackfoot Walmarts, and then working hours during the day. It is a good thing for him.. but I hate being away from him as much as I am, but I know in the long run its ok and totally worth it. It is helping us come closer together, so its good! I just keep thinking of the positive each day, and that is what keeps me going! Also, we've been told we're doing things a little backwards... Newlyweds usually spend every waking second together the first few months.. then they deal with being away from each other more and more as time goes on.. well... We started being away from each other pretty much every night about a week after our wedding.. so hopefully when the walmarts are done.. we'll be able to spend more time together! And I am most definately looking forward to it!! I am planning to start school in January at Evans Beauty College. It has been a life long dream of mine, since I grew up with it in my house as my mom did the same thing! So its a hobbie of mine and I love it! Also, we just got put in the nursery in our ward (As per request of some parents...) and we are enjoying each moment of that as well... We really appreciate all the love and support of our family and friends... Its been great!

!~T.W.O.W.E.E.K.S~!

so lately... we have been planning the wedding! and everything is just about ready to go.. just the litte things left!! its been stressful and only gettting more and more stressful as days go by. . but... it will get better!! we are down to 2 weeks from today!! we are sooo extremely excited!! we have a basement apartment in idaho falls by the river! its a pretty good location! and its just that much more incentive to get out and either run or walk because we are so close to the green belt!! its great! and we are close to the temple so we can attend that pretty often!! its going to be great!! We finally got the announcements in the mail last night.. and that is such a relief!! We just wanted to thank all those who have been supported and offered their help and love to us all!! we really appreciate it!! We hope to see lots of you there in 2 weeks at the reception!! its in my neighbors back yard.. so pretty much just right behind my house from 6 to 8:30!! so your all invited!! We cant wait for 2 weeks. its such a great feeling to know that we're going to be sealed for time and all eternity to the love of our life!!
