Summer Fun!

So far we have had a great summer! Summer came early to this area so we have had great weather for the most part! Here are some random pictures from our adventures!

I went to a Maclamore concert at UI with some friends!

It was my first concert!

We went to the Coeur d' alane Casino for a few days and I played my first slot machine!

I won "big" the first night!

Indian Fry Bread! Yummy!

My awesome coworkers spoiled me for my birthday! 

For my birthday I went out to dinner with all my girl friends Friday night and then Saturday all the family came to Lewiston to go to the best pizza place, Fazzari's! Tylers mom then took us all on a sail boat cruise she won at an auction down the river! It was so fun and we got lots of sun! 24 isn't looking to bad so far :)

New Car!

Well the Corolla finally took a turn for the worse and we decided it was time to look for a new car! We test drove and decided on what we liked and found something we loved soon after! We bought a 2005 Honda Pilot with all the bell's and whistle's! I couldn't be happier in my new car!

We are LOVING our new car and having fun figuring all its features! This was my first car buying experience (I bought the Corolla from my parents) so it was an adventure!

Well we are back!!

Oh man its been way too long since I've posted. Im gonna try to keep up on this so here we go!

My brother married the love of his life!! September 2012

The Happy Couple!

 

We drove the long trip!

About all we saw on the way there!

One of my best friends married her sweet heart! September 2012

The beautiful couple!

My LITTLE sister got married! November 2012

My baby sister graduated from High School and went off to college :(

 We had to put our sweet puppy down August 2012 :( She had a liver disease and wasn't responding to treatments anymore! We miss her everyday and hope she's happy in Heaven!

Isaac Daniel Wright was born on February 12th! He is perfect!

Andrew meeting Isaac for the first time!

The gift I made Ty for Valentines Day! I put stickers on each one with something I love about him!

 

 

Well that's a brief overview of our last few months! I will try to keep up better, I promise!!

Is Spring really here??

Well once again I have been slacking on my posts! Life is so crazy right now so Im having a hard time keeping up on just the required things in life! Im staying crazy busy with all the jobs I have going on right now. I started working Tuesday nights(on top of Wednesday nights) at the Salon because I've been so busy with the clientel I have! Hoping that maybe this summer I can take a break from hair for a month or so! Since I can't possibly tell you all that's been going on I'll just post some pics and talk about those :)

Bella has gotten so big and we are enjoying her so much! She is just over 4 months old and learning new things all the time!

This is my first (and most likely only) Coach bag I traded from a friend for haircuts :)

The shelves Tyler put up in our living room! I love them!

I did prom hair for a friends sister's and a friend and they had to get a picture with Bella :)

Well I hope everyone is doing well! Hopefully I can keep up on this thing better :)

How many babies??!!

We have had 4 new babies start in the last month! They are so fun, but they sure make my job a little more crazy! It's amazing how much I'm learning from these babies! Alot of our parents call us "baby wisperers" which I think is funny because 95% of the time I have NO idea what they really want or need! Each one has their own, VERY big personality and it has been so fun to get to know them! I'm wondering if when I have my own (assuming they come one at a time) if I will ever be bored?! Im getting better at juggling eight (not by myself) one might seem a little slow! Im sure my opinion will change once I have one of my own since I don't have any of these babies over night (my favorite part)! Well enough about work, here is a pic of my super cute puppy who is getting so big!

She had her first set of shots since we have had her the other day and did great! She goes back in a month for some snipping and more shots! We are really enjoying having her in our house!
Other fun but random news, we got a new bed!!! King size posturepedic pillow top! It is amazing and I enjoy going to bed each night even more!

Our beautiful new bed!

Besides that we are just working away! Ty is doing great in school and is really impressing his Welding Instructor! Hope everyone is doing well!

Crafty things!

We had a craft day with my mother and sister in law! Here are the crafts I made!

I think we are going to make this a once a month date! We sure do have alot of fun getting together and get cute crafts out of it!

New house, New Puppy!!

Lot's has happened since my last post (my excuse for not posting sooner)! We have moved (yes AGAIN)! We hated our other place, just wasn't for us. So we looked at craigslist one night, found an add for a place we tried to look at when we first moved to Lewiston, and fell in love! We are pretty much all settled in now and we are staying here for the next 2 years for sure! Here are some pictures!

Another very exciting thing to happen to us is we added another member to our family! Her name is Bella and she is an 8 week Austrailian Shepard puppy! We love her and are enjoying our time with her! Here are some pics!

She was interested in my phone

She is way too cute!

We are both doing very well and enjoying all the new things in our life! Ty is enjoying his first semester in the Welding Program and I am loving work at Building Blocks! Hope you all are doing well!

2 YEARS BABY!!!!

December 5th was our 2 year anniversary!!! Seems so silly to be so excited about 2 years, but that's a big accomplishment these days! I was sick on our actual anniversary so we waited to go to a "fancy dinner" till the next night! We went to Tomato Brother's in Clarkston, and LOVED it! We had alot of fun just being together and talking about all the adventures we have had in the last 2 years! Tyler sent me roses that day at work and It cheered what was a stressful day at work up :) So grateful for him in my life, Im a lucky gal for sure!

I loooooove getting flowers :)

Thanksgiving and some hair dye....

We had a great Thanksgiving with Tyler's family! We were supposed to go over to Seattle but on Wednesday morning I woke up with the stomach flu :( Luckily I was feeling better on Thursday so I got to be a part of the celebration!

Uncle Tywer and Andrew watching Toy Story after Thanksgiving dinner

We had a great time with Ty's family! Ate yummy food, watched a movie and played some games as a family! Im so thankful for the family in my life and I know they were chosen to be mine for a reason! Thanks again Aaron and Janel for having us :)

I forgot that I didn't posts pictures of my new hair! I have been trying to grow my hair out for a few years now and I finally decided that going a little darker might help! Blonde was getting to be too much work and I was ready for a change!

I realize Im in my bathroom, but it has the best light!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Getting excited for Christmas now!

Here comes November!

Crazy to think it's November already! Of course we can't forget because it's FREEZING now! November will be a fun but busy month! My sister in law and I are doing the Clarkston craft fair next weekend and we are very excited to see how successful we are! Last week Ty met with a Kidney specialist in Pullman and was pretty discouraged with what they said. Basically there was nothing they could do except give him some suggestions on how to change his diet to help prevent him from getting the stones. Hopefully he won't have anymore now! Ty is doing great in school but is very ready for this semester to be over! Work is going great for me! We had lots of fun activities planned for Halloween and I loved seeing all my babies dressed up in their costumes! We are doing a Thanksgiving feast for our room this month so that's our next event! Overall we are doing great! Just enjoying life and watching it go way too fast!

I've been slacking

I've been slacking on my blogging! October is zooming by and I can't believe it's almost Halloween! We've had a busy month as usual, and we are excited to celebrate the holidays in the next 2 months! Ty has been doing great in school and just finished his mid terms! Work is going great and we are having so much fun with the kids! We spent the weekend in Pullman again so we could hang out with family! Ty and Aaron (our brother-in-law) went shooting for an activity and the girls went to the WSU craft fair! It was fun to see all the booths! Janel (my sister-in-law) and I are doing the Clarkston craft fair next month and we were excited to see what type of booths they had here! I will try to keep up on blogging more, I promise!

Bring on October!

September has come to a close and we are moving on to October! I love Fall and am so excited to decorate for all the fun holidays! At work we have already changed our room over to our Fall decorations and I love it! It's crazy how fast time goes as you get older! I always wanted time to speed up, but now I'm not so sure! We had a busy week this week so we decided to spend the weekend in Pullman so we could visit with both our families! Friday after I got off work we met my family at a new restaurant in town for some dinner and fun! Saturday we spent the morning with my family visiting and then the rest of the afternoon shopping in Moscow with Ty's family! Today we are watching Conference and celebrating Ty's mom's birthday! We had homemade donuts this morning and us kids are making her a yummy lunch in between sessions!

Things happen for a reason

This week has been just as busy as any other. I had open house at  work on Tuesday and had all but one set of parents show up! It was so fun to share stories and let the parents see what we do all day with their kids. Our theme was "A day in the life" so we shared with them things we do every day! I am loving my job SO much and enjoy interacting with little ones all day! I'm exhausted when I go home at night, but by the next morning I miss my babies! Tyler is doing awesome in school and got 100% on his first math test! GO TYLER!! He says he is bored staying home and not working but I think he enjoys it more then he lets on! Tyler had some more tests with the doctor this week and has been referred to a Urologist in Pullman. Hoping they find out whats up quick so we can get Ty feeling better. We are excited for a fun weekend with Ty's family camping and living it up at the Nez Perce County Fair!

Busy life...............

Well as you can tell from the tittle, we are living a busy life these days. I've had something everyday after work this week and have been feeling it these last few days. Tyler is doing great in school and adjusting to being the "stay home husband". I am loving my job and finding out each and everyday that I am just fine waiting a few years to have kids of our own. Tyler was diagnosed with Chron's disease last June and has been learning how to live with his disease. He see's a specialist here in Lewiston and has found him very helpful. He went in on Monday for a check up and they found blood in his urine sample so they scheduled him for a second. We are still waiting to hear back about the second test and our hoping for some good news. We are feeling very blessed this week because alot of prayers are being answered. Hope all is well with everyone!

What a week.....

So no pictures this week because Im a slacker, BUT we've had quite the week. I drive 70 miles round trip each day for work and knew this would put some added stress on my car. Little did I know that in the first full week of work my car would decide it didn't like the grade twice a day! My poor little car is chugging along but sounds like my hubby will have some work ahead of him. On Thursday's Tyler has a morning class then comes home for a few hours before 2 afternoon classes. I was getting ready to leave for work when I got a phone call from him asking if I knew where his registration for his pickup was. My first thought was oh no he got a speeding ticket. Nope, he was rear ended. Lucky for us he drives a pickup and NOT a small car or else it would of been worse. Everyone was ok but the car that hit him had some major damage! Im grateful that the Lord watches over us both each day and that we have both made it through this week (and our vehicles)!

First day of school

Today was Tyler's first day at Lewis Clark State College. He is studying Welding Technology. We are both very excited for this new adventure in our life!
