Ellie had her friend Hailey over and asked me if they could have a "Water" stand. I laughed and have no idea what came over me but said Sure. So I sat back and let them do all the work. Ellie found her wagon and loaded it with water. I told her she could take some of the dr pepper and she was pretty pumped about that. She was plum excited. I wish I would have got a picture of her sign. She wanted $2 for either one. I laughed so hard because she kept saying Mom I can't believe your letting me do this. YOU ALWAYS SO NO. She kept telling me I'm the best mom ever. All in all it ended up being a fantastic day. Thanks to good friends and family Ellie and Hailey split the goods and each ended up with $12. I could not believe how much they sold. It's a good thing that we live in such an awesome community. I feel so blessed that through a few phone calls Ellie had people lined up buying water from her. Next time I suppose we should sale cold water. :)
The couples that are "Meant to Be" are the ones who go through everything that's designed to tear them apart and come out even STRONGER.

Loving her new walker
5/29/2013
I decided to get a new walked knowing that Laney isn't our last and it will get good use. Well, I should of known better. This kid likes her new walker but LOVES our old one. It goes everywhere, she is getting pretty good at 4 wheel driving it EVERYWHERE. Even though she doesn't love it as much as the green one. She sure is still pretty dang cute.

Memorial Day with My Girls! All three of them.
Ellie wanted to make sure she was touching both of her sisters. She is so sweet and never wants to leave Jayci out of anything. I laughed how she positioned her self with her sisters. Always Oldest to Youngest and never out of order!
Memorial Weekend with my Mom
A while back my mom decided that she really wanted to come down and visit everyone and since memorial day weekend ended up being a long 4 day weekend she would come them. I enjoyed having my mom here for her birthday. I rarely get to be with her on her birthday we went all out and got an all American chocolate cake from Costco. If you have never had one you are missing out. Anyways we had a great evening with her and enjoyed way more cake then we should have.
Since Mom was here we bunked the girls together and let Mom have Ellie's room. Ellie loved it and slept so good with her sister that after mom left I decided to movie Laney in with her. They have done so good up until now (6/30) because Laney isn't feeling well and is up crying all night. Ellie loves having someone with her at all times. They are the best of friends.
Mom also go to spend some time at the cemetery where her Dad and Brothers are buried. It was nice to reminisce and hear stories of them. we are very blessed to have eternal families. I love that I have many up in heaven looking over my Jayci. It makes it just a tinsy weesy bit easier knowing she is with loved ones looking down on all of us. My mom also got to spend some good quality time with her mom. I love having them all together it makes me appreciate how lucky and blessed I am to have so many living grandparents living that are very healthy and strong. (Heavenly Father please don't make me eat my words. I need them around to love and serve.)
Catch up.
Wow, as I was looking back at all my pictures I had no idea how far behind I got on updating my blog. Sense this is the only way I journal, scrap book, and vent on grief you'll need to prepare your self for almost two months of updating.

Ellie Funnies
"Conversation with Granny June"
Granny get's out of the car and says "I need to use the rest room."
Ellie says "You need to go potty?"
Granny "Yes"
Ellie says "Okay I'll take you."
(Granny could not even tell me the story because she was laughing to hard. I thought it was so cute she wanted to help.)
"Sacrament Meeting 08/09/08"
Ellie "Mom where is your bag"
Dad "Do you want a snack?"
"This Morning 08/18/09"
I was in the kitchen making hot chocolate. Which I LOVE. Ellie decides she wants some to. But I was watching my TV show and told her to wait a minute. She was not going for that so she grabbed my arm and says "Pease Mom your the best". I love it when she says that, how can you tell her to hold on then?!
"On our way home from Twin. 8/22/09"
Ellie was whinny in the back seat and Layne started to mimic her and she got really mad and said. "Dad quit being a whiner."
"Tonight sitting on my lap in the Kitchen 9-08-09"
Ellie: I wanna get married
Mom: dieing of laughter "what did you say"
Ellie: I wanna get married
Dad: Not till your thirty!
Ellie: Ok

All of us playing make believe after dinner?!
Ellie: Mom you be Ellie, I'll be Dad and Dad be mommy because you have a Belly like mommy... (I laughed so hard)
So she wanted some dinner and said while deepening her voice "Darlin bring me some dinner"
We were laughing way to hard to keep playing... She was on one that night

Getting ready for church.
I curled Ellies hair this morning and put a cute flower in it. She was wearing a new dress with her boots. I told her she looked rockin. She says "yeah i'm rockin" I tried to get her to put her coat on but she said "no mom I want to show dad how fashionable I am" Seriously what three year old talks like that.

Setting the scene: Ellie walks out of my room with just a t shirt on. I ask her. Where are your pants. She says: Mom their wet! well why or they wet. With her hand on her hip and shaking her finger at me she says "Because moder I had an Asserdent"
Granny get's out of the car and says "I need to use the rest room."
Ellie says "You need to go potty?"
Granny "Yes"
Ellie says "Okay I'll take you."
(Granny could not even tell me the story because she was laughing to hard. I thought it was so cute she wanted to help.)
"Sacrament Meeting 08/09/08"
Ellie "Mom where is your bag"
Dad "Do you want a snack?"
Ellie "Yeah" Cough Cough Cough
Dad preceeds to get her a treat but she started gaging a little bit. Chokes spits up a little bit, and Layne catches it in his hand.
Ellie (look of disgust) "Dad go throw it in the gabage that is DISGUSING"
So Layne gets up and washes his hands.
(I about peed my pants laughing)
