Love.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." -1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Something that every couple should live by and I know I'm guilty of not living by this.

Christopher, I love you with everything I am and everything that I will ever be. You are my rock, my inspiration and the beat of my heart. You gave me the most precious gifts I could have ever recieve and I am eternally grateful. I love you a little more everyday. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us. Every day we get a little stronger and love a little better.

My beautiful flowers!

the boys and I started reading this before bed. I have it memorized from reading it in class, the boys love it. "I love you to the moon.. and back" Melts my heart!

I read an awesome blog today about love and all that it endures. I think that everyone should go and read it because I don't think it could be put any better. Courtney & Tripp's story will touch your heart. I love reading her blog and only wish her the best. Her and Tripp are a true inspiration to me.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Snow Day!

Well it snowed!! How exciting!  The boys were so excited when they woke up. We all got up and went on with our normal routine, work for me and Chris and school for the boys, typical Monday morning. Well after I got to work, the teachers in boys' class told me they thought Malakhi's eye was red and he wouldn't quit itching it. I looked at it and thought "pink eye, ew!" Well I had of my the parents from my room look at it since she is a RN and she said it was for sure pink eye, so we got to go home.

We went straight to the doctor and she said that it was pink eye but it was allergy induced. She prescribed eye drops for his eye and started him on another allergy medicine. I swear he take a pharmacy. We are planning to do an allergy test next month on him. I'm ready to know what exactly he is allergic to so we can eliminate that if possible.

When we got home the boys were itching to go play in the snow. We ate lunch and got all bundled up and headed out! The were so excited!! Throwing snow at me, making snow angels and just being wild. I suggested that we walk to the top of the hill of the road and go sledding, of course, they were all for it! saying "lets go, mom!" :) We sledded for an hour and then we just wanted to come inside and relax.

Neahmiah ended up taking a nap and Mama cleaned the house a little bit while waiting on Dad to get home. We had a good snow/sick day! I'm feeling kinda sick now.. sore throat, headache. Hopefully this sinus med will kick in soon.

**I found 2 new phone apps that I absolutley LOVE!!!

1. is Voxer! its a walkie talkie. I use it more than texting, and anyone that knows me, knows how much I hate talking on the phone. I would so rather text you, but this walkie talkie thing is pretty sweet. Plus the boys love to use it! :)

2. is RedStamp. if you don't have it, GET IT! here is something I did tonight..

Tomorrow I get to stay home with the boys, due to Malakhi's pink eye. I'm super sad that the boys will miss their Valentine's Day party at school, they have been talking about it for weeks :(. But I want him to get better and I don't want any other kid getting pink eye. I would feel so guilty.

OH, I got a new blog designs. I love it! Something new and different. :)

Weekend Fun!

I feel like I'm always doing weekend rewind posts! I'm seriously tired during the week and the weekend is the best time to catch up! haha. I'm going to seriously post during the week this week.. i hope at least. haha

The boys went to their Great Grandparents on Wednesday and their got their Valentines from them. Little sock monkeys, so cute!!

so cute.

They also made us Valentines day cards! so sweet. I loved them so much. :)

Friday I went to the Gym first thing in the morning I got up at 4:30 and was at the gym by 5. It felt good getting up and getting things accomplished! Tomorrow I'm going at 4:45 (if it doesn't snow) and I start my actual work out tomorrow. Monday, Wednesday and Friday I'll be at the gym at 4:45, then Tuesday and Thursday I'll probably go at night or after work. Then Saturday in the morning and Sunday is my rest day! I hope that I can get myself to eating better so I can shed some weight. Wish me luck!

I'm going to set this as my wallpaper, keep me motivated! Plus I like her hair :)

Saturday was a busy day! I worked out at 9 for an hour. Then back home to get ready for Carlye's baby shower. That was at 2. It was such a good baby shower. Miss Shawna Gale did an awesome job putting it together for Carlye. I wish I had friends that did that for me. I put together my own. But for Neahmiah's baby shower he was already here because he came 4 weeks early! haha. But Here are some picutres of Carlye's baby shower.. Thanks for inviting me girl, it was fun!!

These are just some of the pics I have done. I'll get the rest to you soon girl! :)

Cute little family.

Makin' onesies for Dayleigh.

After the shower we had plans to go out with Carlye for her birthday, but they were going at 6:30 and we didn't have a sitter till 7. We decided to go eat with Wesley and Brandi in honor of her birthday. We seen Carlye and all them at Chilis. It was going to be a 40 minute wait for us so we decided to just go to the Arena and eat. It was so much fun! After that we went to the Royal, which was interesting. Sometimes it fun and other times is NOT.

he's pretty cute. I think I'll take him home ;)

Love meeting new friends, even though we have been FB friends for 3 months, just met her saturday night and Loved her!

Chris and the boys got my valentines present and gave it to me on Saturday! I loved it!! The boys got me a beautiful heart necklace, they are my heart so it was perfect. Chris got me BREAKING DAWN! :D yay! and a terabyte hard drive for my computer. Love the extra space and being able to tote it around!! it so nice!! plus a HUGE card, I could barely open it in the truck because it was so BIG. I love those 3 more than anything in this whole world. I'm so blessed.

I already wore it.

I love Sundays!! They are so relaxing. :) We didn't get out of bed til 10:30, that includes the boys. It was so nice. We took the girls (our dogs, hehe) to the groomers today, I had taken Misha on monday when she came home because I knew she would be staying inside more. Well she came home wet and I didn't think it was a big deal because it was just a little bit but Petco had called us saying they would give us our money back or give us a free cleaning and how sorry they were for her going home like that. I was so pleased with the result of her today. She is so fluffy and pretty! and Miss Marley is actually white.. not brown! lol. I love my girls!

I got to take some pictures today! It was so nice to be behind the camera today.. you can check them out on my photog blog. LaraDanielle Photography

Saturday night was Daisys birthday dinner at Chilis. It was fun! Although I barely talked to Daisy:( We waited for a table for 45 minutes. It was crazy and we reserved one too. Pathetic Chilis, Pathetic! But Alicia and I did the $35 deal. pretty sweet deal. you get 1 appetizer to share, 2 presidente margaritas (one each) 2 meals, and 1 dessert to share. yummo!

The birthday girl. love her!!

my 2 besties

it feels good to dress up sometimes.

Chris was back in town by then so we went out to my moms to pick up the boys and when we were turning on Cr 25 to get to my moms house there was a truck in the middle of the road and he flagged us down and told us to be careful that there was a horse in the middle of the road. HA.. well sure enough there was a horse just trottin down the road.. well we had to come to a complete stop and 3 more ran out right in front of us. We called 911 and they were going to send a deputy that way. I hope no one hit a horse and the horses got home. Those horses were freaking out!
