Other happenings and pictures

Oh man! So much going on. I guess the latest news is that we sold Derick's truck and paid off my car! It feels so good not to have car payments! We actually sat together the other night and work on the budget and I didn't even cry!!! It was amazing. (I typically cry. Money stresses me out.) Our goal was to go one car for the summer, but we found a nice used Subru Forester for a good price and are in the process of buying it. Our main goal is get the debt down so we can afford to have another kid. We are hoping to get everything baking around December time.

Let see... there are 24 days left of school. Derick and I got baptized last week. That felt good. O'lena is 17 months or will be this week. There was spring break in there...camping....Disney...a trip the the hospital...a wedding...most of it has been blogged about. O'lena is sick again. It gets pretty annoying, having her sent home, going to the doctors. She doesn't feel good either. She has a bad cough again. But at least her ear look good!

Here are some random pictures of happenings.

My cousin Jacque came and hung out for a couple of days during my spring break. She brought her girls. They are so stinking cute too. Jac and I cooked for a month in one and half days. It was amazing. I think we made like 22 meals (times two) because we were doubling alot of them. Here is a cute picture of all them hanging out in the tub. We went and watch my brother pay a baseball game at the Miracle Stadium. It was really good. O'lena got hot but she was pretty good.
He is pitching on the mound.
O'leeny watching her Uncle play.
I was leaving the dentist office the other day and sitting on top of the SUV were two hawks. They were so pretty. This was taking inside D's truck that is why there is a glare.
O'lena was eating browning mix. She was covered, but she loved it!
My cousin got married recently and we went to the wedding. Derick and I learned that we are not able to take O'lena to these kind of places anymore. She didn't want to sit or play to do anything we wanted her to do. It was a bit embarrassing. Anyways at one point we attached a balloon to her so we would know where she was. She was all over the place.
My cousin Jacque and I.
Us and Brannon at the wedding. We were all coordinating, no, it wasn't a coincidence.

I love this picture! O'lena with my grandpa. They were so cute. I love him holding the balloon.O'lena eating spaghetti and being messy. She was cute as a button.
Bryan passed out at our house holding the USF mokey. hehehehehe
I found this picture on Derick's phone the other day. I thought it was cute. She must have been only a couple of month old.
This was on his phone too. She was being too cool for school in mommy's sun glasses.
I'm trying to think what else has been happening....Bryan and Brannon are both graduating soon, which is very scary. I have my 10 year reunion coming up too here soon. It doesn't feel like I have been out of high school for 10 years now.
Of course now I cannot think of anything else. You know everyday I think of something that I should blog about, but I never get it up because I forget.
Anyways- At least I feel up to date! This has been hanging on me for forever! Going to bed because it is past my bed time.
