Finally!

I have been wanting to cut my hair for a long time. My hubby likes it long so I have kept it long since we got married. I finally had enough and Saturday I cut it off! Jason got a little teary eyed when he saw the new do but he has been a good sport!

Here is a before shot..........

Here is my my new style! I love it!

My own little Indiana Jones

Last Monday Noah went to a friends house and Isaac was bored. He went downstairs to play. I was upstairs cleaning.....he came up to see me looking like this....

I gasped and asked him what happened to his face???

He said "I'm playing Indiana Jones!"

Funny little boy.....thank heavens it wasn't permanent ink!

What happens after the french toast is all gone.....


Yes....that is syrup in his hair.....

Coolest wife on the block....

Jason bought a motorcycle. Yes, I did say motorcycle. He decided about a month ago that if he bought a motorcycle, it would save us tons of money in gas (reality: not really) so he was obsessed with finding the perfect bike. This obsession consumed his, (thus my) days and nights for a couple of weeks until he finally found THE bike. This bike happened to be in Twin Falls, but it was a price I could swallow so I told him just buy the bike. So then we had to go get the bike. This was the weekend before his family reunion. On Sunday we were supposed to go to Logan for his parents farewell, then we had to drive up to Logan again on Tuesday for the family reunion. Oh yeah and we were going to Park City for a bike race (shopping for me) on Saturday. We only had to fit a trip to Twin Falls sometime between Saturday-Monday. I was totally stressed out doing final things for the reunion so I didn't need this extra stress, but since I am obviously in total control of my life (haa haa) everthing seemed to need to be done in these few days. We drove up to Twin Falls (3 hour drive) and got the bike, and then turned around and drove home (should have been another 3 hour drive....but it wasn't....). We left pretty late in the evening and after we got the bike, test drove it, filled it up with gas, got some gross Carl's Jr. dinner.... it was about 8:00 before we left Idaho. We hit Kaysville at about 11:00 pm and the freeway was totally stopped (I realized this about 5 feet after the exit). I sat in stop and go traffic for 1 hour, yes 1 HOUR. At about 11:45, Isaac was crying, Luke was fussing and I was crying in the front seat. We weren't even to Farmington yet. FINALLY, we passed all the traffic and ended up getting home at about midnight. Jason drove in about 15 minutes after me. He tried to apologize for all the trouble but I told him it was probably better for him to leave me alone for the night. I was afraid I would say quite a few bad words and say more than a few things that I couldn't take back after the fact. It took me a couple of days actually to get over the whole bike thing. He had been so obsessed over it, I didn't really think we needed to buy it, then the whole go get it thing.....I was done. I haven't ridden on it yet, maybe someday I won't hate it?? I keep telling Jason I have now been pushed to #3 on his list of important things. 1. Mountain Bike 2. Motorcycle 3. Me........ However my neighbor Ben keeps telling everyone that I am the coolest wife ever because I let Jason buy this bike. So there you have it..... I am the COOLEST WIFE EVER!

Here is a picture of my proud hubby......

Saturday, what a day....

I decided I needed to get some new running shoes, mine got ruined on the hike (whole toe thing). I dragged my kids to Famous Footwear with me and tried on about 10 pairs of shoes, all while my children were running around the store. I just pretended I didn't know who their mother was....just kidding, they were actually pretty good, they had tons of fun trying on shoes too.
I found some shoes finally, they were the last pair I tried on!


Aren't they cute?

Happy 4th of July!

On the 4th we just hung out at home during the day. My friend Sally invited us to a BBQ and fireworks that evening. It was fun just to hang out and eat great food. My kids are all old enough now we didn't even have any freakouts over the fireworks! Yipee!

Miller Family Reunion 2008

The Miller Family Reunion was last week, Tues - Thurs. The boys had a blast playing with their cousins and getting dirty. It was great to see everyone, but...I am so glad it is over!! I only took pictures of the skits the kids did, I totally forgot to take pictures of the rest of the fun!

Isaac is the crazy hair man.....I don't remember what the skit was about...

Noah is in the blue hat, yes Isaac is hitting him, all part of the skit!
