Can't Sleep!

2011-10-01T01:41:00.003-06:00

I don't know what my deal is tonight it is 2 a.m. and I can't sleep!
We had some awesome friends of ours come over tonight Matt and Mallory Johns! They are the best! We had such a good time with dinner from Mo Betta's Steak House with some "Scookie" dessert! Delish! We are so blessed to have such great friends!

I just want to talk about Makelle... I am so lucky to be her mommy! She has my heart and I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this little girl! I don't remember if I have talked about this already on my blog but I thought I would share it again anyways. I thought that I had experienced the greatest Love in the world when I married Tim... that love GREW a million times for Tim when Makelle was born... not to mention that we had created the most beatiful little girl who stole our hearts from the second she was conceived and born! She is the most precious little angel and we Love her so much! It's such a different kind of love that is so undescribable... that I was not able to understand until Makelle was born. I can't believe she is already 5 months old! AHHH! Where has the time gone?!? She is growing up so fast and I just want time to freeze so I can take it all in!

I am so so proud of my husband for working so hard to provide for our amazing little family! He is such a hard worker and Makelle and I are truely blessed to have a man so strong, amazing, loving, caring, believing, worthy of his Priesthood callings, spiritual, hard working (so I am able to stay home), who does so many great things in our lives.

I LOVE BEING A MOTHER!!! It is the greatest calling here on earth and I am so blessed to be trusted by our Lord to take care of one of His little ones and hopefully more someday! I can't wait for Conference this weekend and love this Gospel and love my Family!

Sundance - Sound of Music

2011-09-19T11:27:00.003-06:00

The whole Merrill Family took a drive down to Provo for some delicious dinner for Dad's birthday at Brick Oven! We then went up Provo Canyon to Sundance where Sound of Music the play was playing! It was such a gorgeous day and a perfect night for the whole thing! It did get a little chilly but we packed a ton of blankets up! Tim asked me why I was bringing so many blankets and he was super glad that we took so many once the sun went down! Makelle did so good up there and had a fabulous time outdoors! She loves it! She fell asleep up there and slept the whole way home too! Here are a few pics of our fun adventure!!!

San Diego with the Goalens!

2011-09-19T11:00:00.004-06:00

We had the amazing opportunity to go over to San Diego with the entire Goalen Family! We had such a fun time with everyone! This amazing house that we rented out had a huge yard - patio - pool - lemon trees and much more! The house was amazingly huge and it was just so fun! We had our first annual Goalen Olympics, lots of swimming adventures, a day at the beach, some went to the zoo, and Tim and I had the wonderful opportunity to go and do a session at the San Diego temple! It is so gorgeous inside and out! We had tons of fun and hope to be able to visit again soon!

Makelle's first time in the pool!

Sun bathing!
Gorgeous!

P.S. How the crap did I get so lucky to have such a sexy husband?!? I don't know but I just love him so much! =) Yummy Mexican Dinner Out!

Loves Daddy!! Such a happy girl!

She's Here!

2011-05-15T17:40:00.006-06:00

Makelle Jean Goalen joined our family on May 4th! She was 6 pounds 9 ounces and 21 inches long! She has been such a good baby and we can't wait to get to know her even better!!! =)

Here we are waiting to be admitted! Still feeling contractions... couldn't wait for the epidural! Biggest Loser was thankfully on somewhat keeping my mind off of the contractions... they were oh so painful! =) Thank goodness for medication!Dad, Mom and Makelle!!! What a blessing!Makelle has been such a blessing in our lives over the past 2 and a half weeks! She is the best baby anyone could ask for! She has been sleeping so well and doesn't fuss very much unless she's hungry! We love her so much! It's such a new kind of love that is so indescribable!

We love being a mommy and daddy and feel so blessed to have a happy and healthy baby!

Girl Names?!?

2011-03-25T12:16:00.002-06:00

So Tim and I have been thinking of some names for our baby girl that is coming oh so quickly and have a few in mind but we just can't decide! If you have any fun unique names we'd love to hear them, we are totally open to other options! =)

We are so excited for this little one! I finally cleaned out her room and got it all organized! Now it's time to fill it up with all of her stuff! I finally vacuumed in there and it looks so cute! Now all we need is for her to come! She's moving so much inside of me and I don't have much more room left... if any at all. haha! She's low and high... mostly because I am a very short person and have no room in my torso whatsoever! These Braxton Hicks are somewhat annoying but very cool at the same ... just knowing that my body is preparing for the real thing! I'm nervous but excited at the same time for this little girly and we just can't believe how fast this pregnancy has gone, Thankfully!

Florida!!!

2011-03-24T21:03:00.002-06:00

We had such a great time here in Florida! We got to go and see the temple and it was the most beautiful day and the clouds were perfet for picture taking! haha!

I love this picture! We were on our way back to the hotel and it was a perfect shot out the window! Craig and Emily drove down 5 hours just to see the race and to say hello! We had so much fun seeing them! We miss them terribly! Judah is getting so big he's adorable!!!

My sexy husband at the beach! We had a lot of fun at the beach! It wasn't as warm as we would have liked but it was still nice to just relax!

Here's Tim out in the distance riding some waves!

Tim and Ryan after they got their surf on... they did a great job for first timers!

On our way back from the beach ... as you can see... we about ran out of gas! The line is way below the E! HAHA We were stressing about finding a gas station and barely made it!

Disney World!

Swiss Family Robinson! Tim's favorite show growing up! haha! We just had to take tour and we loved it!

Indiana?

Animal Kingdom! I was so excited for this place cuz I was going to be able to ride on the safari ride! ... When we got up to it... the sign said no expectant mothers! I was so bummed but they had a great time on it! Tim took lots of pictures for me so I could enjoy it too! ha! He's the best!

Our little "Minnie" me!

Epcot! This was such a fun place! We went on the ride at the very front that takes you inside the huge ball and it was so fun and hilarious! They take pictures of you at the very beginning and ask you questions throughout the ride and create a movie about you. It was hilarious! We had the cheesiest faces! Very favorite thing here!

We had such a great time being together and spending time with Ryan and Kaeli Tall, with their cute little boy Stoktyn! They were so fun to be around! Thanks to Tim, the love of my life, for the fun getaway before out little girly joins the family! We can't wait to meet her and have her in our lives!

We are so blessed and so grateful for everything we have been given, especially each other!

Prego Belly!

2011-03-01T21:47:00.006-07:00

Here are some updated prego pictures! I'm gettig a lot bigger now that I'm in my third trimester! It's going by somewhat quick! Thankfully! We'll see how fast it goes now that I'm starting to get uncomforable! haha! She's already kicking my ribs!!! Crazy little girl! This is me at 23 weeks!

I finally cracked and went shopping for Pregnant jeans and shirts!!! It's a shame I didn't go earlier because they are so dang comfortable! =) One of the new outfits!

and Today! I'll be 30 weeks on Friday!

Things are gettin squishy in there already but I guess that's what you get for being short and having NO TORSO whatsoever! haha! It's been a blast getting to feel her move like crazy these past few weeks! She's definately letting me know that she's there! We love her so much already and can't wait to meet her!

Kidney Stones = Crappy Weekend!

2011-02-28T20:30:00.004-07:00

So this past week was kinda crappy in the fact that we spent all of our Friday night at the hospital in labor and delivery! I had been having pain in my back around my kidney area starting on Wednesday morning and they just seemed to be getting worse and worse. So I called the doctor and asked her what I could do for the pain. She suggested to come in and get some tests done... but that of course costs money... so I tried to put that off as long as I could and just pop some tylenol and put an icy hot patch on and call it good. Well that worked for a while, all through the next day til around noon when I decided to go and get a few tests done at the hospital. The tests came back fine... (no sign of a kidney stone and no UTI) only a high white cell blood count, which could mean an infection, and so I seriously thought I was just being a wuss. The doctor suggested that I come in and get a kidney ultrasound but I decided again to wait one more night to see how bad I was really hurting. So that night I decided to get the tylenol out of my system and take the icy hot patch off my back to see how bad the pain really was... it was excruciating! It seriously felt like someone was stabbing me in the back and twisting it. Anyways needless to say I didn't sleep very well that night and we decided to call the doctor the next day to let her know that we wanted to come in and get that kidney ultrasound to see if I had anything wrong with my kidneys. Tim and I went in (Friday) and got a kidney ultrasound and the results came back saying that i had an inflamed kidney. My doctor was waiting seeing what type of medicine the radiologist was going to prescribe for me and called back around 4:30 and said "I really think that you need to come into labor and delivery and get a few more tests done and so we can make sure that the baby is doing ok. So I'm freaking out... calling Tim letting him know what she said... he was just about to book his flight over to Atlanta for the Supercross Race over there and luckily I called him when I did. He came down to the hospital and checked in with me at 5:30. So they hooked me up to an IV to get some fluids in me ... mind you I haven't eaten since noon and I'm starving... the doctor comes in and says I don't want you to eat anything cuz if we have to do surgery then we can't have food in your stomache. Oh great... I get so onry when I don't eat especially being pregnant! So they ran some tests and thought that I may have a kidney stone so they flushed me with fluids and were about to do a CT scan to see how big it was and if it was blocking the flow of the kidney's. Steven came down and brought Tim some amazing food from Aly and he and Tim gave me a blessing. Not kidding you, 10 minutes after Steven left I needed to head to the bathroom cuz I wanted to make sure I have an empty bladder when we went in for surgery. Well I saw something in my pee in the toilet... a little pebble. So I called Tim in there and told him to go and get the nurse. The wheelchair that was transporting me to go and get the CT Scan was right outside of my room ready to take me. The nurse and the doctor came in and were so suprised that i had passed a failry large kidney stone right there right before they were going to do the CT Scan. I was so thrilled too cuz the pain had already started to ease! We only had to do a kidney ultrasound one more time and the results came back really good! anyways we were out of there by 1am so tired and ready to eat and go to bed! I am so grateful for this gospel and for an amazing husband who has the authority to hold the Priesthood and to give me a blessing! I really know that that is what helped us get out of the hospital that night. I can't tell you how much I love Tim and can't wait to get to meet this little one! We are so glad that she is doing well and growing right on track! =) Only 11 more weeks!!! YAY!!!

Merrill Family Pictures

2011-01-29T21:01:00.005-07:00

We were definately due for family pictures! The last ones we took were right after Brad and Ash got married... but we never got to see them from the company we got them taken with! So the only family pictures we have since these are from when I was 15! Definately due! =) We wanted to get some done with everyone before Ash and I have our little chillins! These were taken right after Thanksgiving so Ash and I, thankfully, weren't showing very much. Needless to say we had a lot of fun and they turned out really well! =) Michael Herd, one of Dad's good friends, took these pictures with Dad's awesome camara! Enjoy!

The Whole Gang!

Little One

2011-01-22T19:49:00.002-07:00

So this little one inside of me is so much fun! She's got some serious moves! haha! Tim felt her move! It was so fun to have him feel her for me especially cuz I've been feeling her for the past month or so... but to have him feel her inside there really made it a lot more real! It is still crazy to think that we'll have her here in 4 more months! =) We can't wait to meet her and get to know her! I couldn't ask for more! Life is great!

2 Years Wow!

2011-01-18T11:58:00.002-07:00

I LOVE TIM!
I seriously can't believe that tim and I have been married for 2 years! It really has flown by so fast! A ton of things have happened since then! We've purchased a home that we absolutely love! We love the neighborhood and ward that we are in! =) Rico has come to our family and been so much fun! He's such a good puppy and we love him! and now... we are pregnant and ready to have this baby! I'm getting bigger by the week and it's pretty fun and interesting to see how much my body can change from one week to the next! It's so amazing! so many other things have happened and I'm so glad that they ave all been with Tim! I really don't know what I would do without him, he has taught me so much about living on our own and together! I just love him with all of my heart and I couldn't have found anyone else that would fit me perfectly like Tim does! =)

Half Way!

2010-12-30T10:53:00.003-07:00

We are a little over half way! Can you believe it!? I seriously can't! It has flown by with all of the holliday's! This has been a fun adventure knowing that some little baby girl is growing adn developing inside of me! It's a pure miracle! It's starting to hit us now that we are going to have a baby! I'm getting a belly bump and it's been fun so far! I know I won't think that when I'm ready to pop! I feel large already and we're not even close to the finish! We just found out that Brad and Ash are having a baby BOY! =) It's going to be so fun having them grow up together!
Christmas was great! We had so many fun things happen and we received so many wonderful gifts! We are painting our little girly's room this week, and I bet you can't guess what color it will be... Pink! Of Coarse! We're excited! It's just so hard to pick out names! We've got some in mind but haven't really decided yet! If you can think of some cute ones let us know for sure!!! =)
Last night we were coming home from a Christmas party and the roads were way slick. There were 2 spun out cars that had colided and one was sticking out into the far left lane. We were moving over to avoid crashing into it when we felt and heard a huge crash into our back left side panel... needless to say we got spun out by a semi truck and barely missed hitting the 2 spun out cars and the median! We were luckily in Tim's car... it took the blow very well. Only hit one panel and hopefully we don't have to pay for it! This may be weird to hear but I'm glad that this great truck driver hit us instead of the stalled van... It would have killed the girl that was standing right behind her van. The Lord blesses us in many ways... some good and some bad and he blesses others at the same time! I'm so grateful for Tim and all he does for me! He's going to be such an AMAZING Daddy!

Movement =)

2010-12-15T12:24:00.002-07:00

We felt her move! Yay! She's getting bigger and so am I... not so sure I love it haha but it'll be worth it I know it! We were in Park City the other night and we were laying there and I felt her pushing ... so I hurry and told Tim to feel my tummy! He totally felt her moving! It was awesome! It made it a little more real to actually feel that there is something in me rather than me just gaining weight and looking fat! haha! She's moving around a lot.... I can't quite tell what she's doing, like kicking or whatever, but I can definately tell that there is a little one inside of me! It's very very different and crazy to even come to the fact that someone is growing and developing inside me. Very fun, intriguing and exciting! We are still thinking of some names and can't come to a conclusion yet, which I keep telling myself is just fine! It's fun right now to call her random names haha that is what Tim does all of the time... just throws out a name ha! He's such a good husband and supports me in everything, puts up with all of my crap and still loves me unconditionally! Tim left out of town this morning for the winter Dew Tour in Colorado and won't be back 'til Monday night! I'm going to be so bored, but I know I will get a lot of Christmas shopping done and the house will be clean~! YAY! It's amazing how much better you feel once the house is clean... I love it! I get to go to another ultrasound to see our little one tomorrow! I can't wait!

It's a GIRL! =)

2010-12-03T12:48:00.004-07:00

We are having a little GIRL and are so excited! =) I totally thought that it was going to be a boy but Tim thought otherwise! He's such a good guesser! Thanks for guessing it was fun to hear your comments and thoughts! We are so excited for this little girly to come into our lives! We love her already and can't wait to meet her! =)We are so blessed to be pregnant and healthy and to have a home so stay all snuggled up in. I can't even begin to make a list of the things I am grateful for. Tim can't wait to be out numbered in the house but said that Rico will even it out! haha! I love Tim so much and am so grateful to be so lucky to have him as my Hubby! We are truely blessed!

Boy or Girl?!?

2010-11-28T15:32:00.005-07:00

Hey! So we are finding out within the next couple of weeks what gender the baby is going to be! Any guesses on what everyone thinks that we will have?!? We are so excited to find out and can't wait to find out! =)

Baby Project!

2010-11-20T16:45:00.003-07:00

Tim wanted to put up the bead board in the baby's room and his awesome dad came down with all of his tools and helped Tim put it up! They did such a good job and it looks so good! We are just trying to decide on what color to paint it!

Scavenger Hunt

2010-11-20T16:25:00.003-07:00

This is how I told Tim that we were having a baby! =) We was so cute and had to sit down on the floor cuz he was in shock! =) We are so excited and find out the gender in about a month! =) YAY!!!

2010-11-16T13:05:00.008-07:00

Hey all! =) Meet the newest member of the Goalen Clan!
We are pregnant and so excited!!! =) I'm 14 weeks along and feeling great!
So when my Aunt Flow hadn't visited me for a few days... I got kinda worried/excited and decided to take a pregnancy test... Well... it turned out positive! Tim was out of town and so I looked down at Rico and said "Rico!!! I'm going to be a mommy!" Haha! Tim was coming home later that day so I went and got some candy bars and made a cute sign for him! I'll post a picture when I get to my computer at home! It was so cute! I sent him on a scavenger hunt when he got home and for his last little clue he found this board with candy bars telling him that I had a "whatchyamacalit" (however you spell that ha) cookin in my belly, and that he was going to be a daddy! We are so excited to have this little one around! My due date is May 13th... day after my birthday! haha! =) So we get to find out the gender hopefully in 2 weeks... but if not it'll be right before Christmas! What an amazing Christmas present! =) We are so excited and can't wait to meet this little one! =)
Me at 14 weeks! Getting a litle baby bump!
Already Waving!!! =) You can kinda see his/her face in this one!

I Love Sweatshirt Weather!

2010-11-09T13:00:00.004-07:00

I love this time of year! It is the absolute best and we usually skip it here in Utah. The beautiful colors withthe tree's changing and the sweatshirt weather is the very best! =) We are having so much fun trying to get decorations for our house it takes so long, but we'll eventually get there! We woke up this morning to 3 inches of snow at our place!!! Holy smokes! Forget about the autumn weather... hopefully it will come back for a little while longer!
Tim and I don't know why.... but we are so excited for Christmas this year! Not that we want it to come sooner, but we are excited to be in our own place to decorate and start making our own holiday traditions as a family! =) Such a fun time of year!

The Love of my Life!

2010-10-16T09:06:00.000-06:00

I hate it when Tim goes out of town... I have the hardest time! I don't know why but I get so emotional! Well that's not the only reason I'm emotional ... I am a woman haha! Anyways, he's in Vegas for the Dew Tour and I just can't get enough of talking to him. Last night I was tlaking to him and after we got off the phone I wanted to talk to him again! I am seriously crazy in love with this man of mine! So I talked to him again and didn't want to hang up! Finally his phone died and that was that! Lame phone!!! =) I love him so much and can't wait for him to be home! Wednesday to Monday night is waaaaaayyyyyy too long for him to be gone! Especially when it happens every other weekend! I am not excited for the early months of next year to come when he's gone almost every weekend for work! We never have time together! Hopefully in about a year all of this will slow down and more people at work will be able to get out there and work their tails off just like my Amazing HUBBY does! He works so hard and I know he does it for our family! He means so much to me and I can't believe it has been 1 year and 9 months since we've been married to the day! He's amazing in every way and he doesn't even know it! I don't know where I'd be without him and I am so excited for these next months to come! We are growing together as a couple and as a family and I love him so much! I can't wait for him to get his butt home!
I also love our house!!! It is amazing and I can't even begin to tell you how blessed we are to have so many great things happening to us! Although Tim cleans the house a lot better than I do... I am still learning to keep it clean and not making a mess even with just the 2 of us! It's crazy how many piles can stack up! I'm definately going to make sure that the house is clean by the time he gets home this monday he deserves so much to come home to a clean home and just relax! I'm so grateful so have such an amazing husband. One who is committed to me and only me, one who cares about what I'm doing, just to name a few... one who shows me that he loves me all the time! It's so unconditional I can't even explain it to you!
I love this gospel and am so grateful that I have the opportunity to teach Relief Society! It is the scariest thing I have ever done in my life but I am learning so much and can't tell you how amazing this ward is and the people in it truely are fantastic people!
My little Rico is the funniest dog ever! He's so stinking cute and you just can't help but love him! We love this puppy! Rico loves Tim... whenever Tim's alarm goes off in the morning... Rico is right there to start liking his face... making sure he's going to get up or else he's going to be late! Rico is so concerned for us and he truely is a part of this family! Haha I can't wait to see what he will do when we have kids! He's so funny and I just can't get enough of him.
Anyways! This has turned out to be really long and I'm sorry for that but I just love how everything is going in my life! I can't tell you how grateful I am for my family and Tim's family and our family together! I am truely blessed and love where we are at! =)

We went on a horse and buggy ride with the beautiful horses, shot some 22's at a ranch and Brad and Court brought their guns and mom and dad shot them haha mom took one shot and then was done! She was so funny she did great! =) Dad and Brad couldn't stop cuz they were having so much fun together! We also had a fun family raffle! Of coarse we had to have a rubix cube contest and David and Kimmy tied or were really close! Mom was teaching some of the other kids how to do the cube! haha they were so confused after about 5 minutes! Grandma and Grandpa did a cute singing number and they sounded so good! It was realy cute and funny! It was a lot of fun down in Beaver and so good to see everyone again!

Tim and I had tickets on the 30th row and they were pretty awesome seats! We saw Bruce and Stacey out there! They drove their harleys out with all of their awesome friends! We had a blast and the whole place was packed with tons of people! I love that Tim and converted me to country! It's so great! Love it all!!! Here are a few pics of the night!

We were so glad to be able to share this amazing day in their lives with them and family! Brooke is so beautiful and looked so AMAZING on this beautiful day! I'm so proud of her for making the decision to get married in the temple. It is such a special thing to do and I will never forget the feeling I felt in that room that day! Here are a few pics of family and friends! =)

I love this picture of Tim and I! =) Here are a few pictures of the wedding book that I made for Brooke! Court helped me a ton with making sure every page got signed! ... It was no problem because of all of the people that came! It was such a beautiful reception! =)

Summer Festivities!

2010-07-25T23:32:00.005-06:00

Everyone had in the family had something done to their hair! Rico got his first hair cut from mom and dad and hated us! haha we took a 3 guard and just started buzzing him... needless to say he didn't like the buzzing/vibrating feeling of it and was flipping out sqwueeling and having a flipping cow! I had his body between my legs while holding his head so he couldn't jolt his head around like a 2 year old throwing a tantrum haha and Tim had the trimmer in one hand and Rico's butt in the other! haha it was a pretty funny site! Well we got the bottom half of him shaved and that's when he looked like a lion! haha then I took the clippers and started cutting his head and legs =) He fell asleep while we did this! He's the cutest little thing. As you can tell mommy didn't go to hair school... his head looks so bad! haha but it's growing out now and you can barely notice! Then Tim colored my hair and did a fabulous job... even though I cried after seeing the color cuz it was soooooo BLACK! I couldn't believe it! But all is well now and it has faded a little bit. Then we dyed Tim's hair and we didn't keep it in long enough for it to be blacker! haha So ... we are learning in the coloring hair area! =) It turned out to be a pretty fun filled night!

Fun at the Bailey home on the 3rd of July! Just a few fun pictures of what was happening!~ =) Tim and I were called the gothic couple at this party! haha my hair was so dark! It has faded now but I was scared there for a little bit!

Boston!

2010-07-25T22:59:00.010-06:00

The Dew Tour was a great time! Here is Tim selling at the booth! He's so good lookin I don't know how I got so lucky! Loved hangin out at here! It was a great time!

We got to eat at "Cheers Cafe" =) That was a lot of fun! We went to church on Sunday morning overe there and it happens to be a dedication of a Stake Center! It was way cool to see it and how beautiful it was. The people over there were so nice! The stake center was HUGE! It had 2 chapels in it and we couldn't believe how pretty it was. Mitt Romney got up to say the prayer too haha! It was a great time! Then we went over to Fenway Park to grab a picture and walk around it! Too bad the Red Sox weren't in town or else we would have loved to go to a game!!!

This was at commons park and it was so fun! We took our baseball gloves over with a baseball and played catch in the park! This little squirrel up in the tree was chewing something and dropping stuff on us haha! He was a friendly little guy!

Here are a few pictures of the "Freedom Trail"! It was pretty fun and very interesting! Samuel Adams grave site, Paul Revere's Home, and many more fun and interesting places! It was a lot of fun walking along the trail! =) Follow the brick strip on the sidewalk!

Hey! Here are some pics of our trip to Boston! We had so much fun at the Dew Tour and just touring around!

I'm a horrible blogger! - Update!

2010-07-15T08:43:00.004-06:00

So I decided that I am a horrible blogger! I haven't made time to keep this updated! Another issue is that my computer charger died! So there goes my access to doing this at home with all of my pictures! I am working on getting those pictures up!
Tim and I went to Boston a few weeks ago! He sent me on a treasure hunt and at the end... suprised me with tickets and we left that night! So fun spur of the moments! We went to the Dew Tour for work and got to tour Boston! It was so much fun! We took the subway everywhere and it was so easy and cheap! Steven and Aly watched Rico while we were gone and they said that they had fun! He and Ben are brothers now... they are so sweet with each other! Rico got into the toilet paper while they were gone to church, and Ben came in and said "Uh-Oh". Rico knew he was in trouble after that haha! I will put some pics up of our adventures over there soon I promise.
We dyed my hair the other day...... and needless to say... we went a little too dark. My hair was completely BLACK! I was stupid enough to grab the "darkest brown" hair color... DUH! Well I cried about it for about 5 minutes... and got over it. HAHA! Tim did such a good job dying it! It has faded a little now and I love it! =)
We had a fun family party on the 3rd at the Bailey Residence, and I just have to say that I have the cutest nieces and nephews in the entire world! They are so sweet and I love being around them! They had a Hay Day with my camamra, as I will show you when I get some pictures up! Haha especially Courtney ... she loves to pose for the camara and then make people pose for her to take their picture! Tim and I were called the "Gothic Couple" at this party due to our hair. Haha, it turned out to be pretty funny... even after me crying. We all snuggled in blankets to watch the fireworks at Eaglewood for the Baileys backyard! Awesome family event, can't wait for the next!
They next day we, my family, went to Lake Powell for a full week! Tim came down in the middle of the week and can I just tell you how much I hate being without him?? I love him so much! It was so nice to get away from work and relax for that long of a time. We definately got some sun and had a blast! Little Rico was learning to swim, but his stubby little legs couldn't hold him up for that long haha! He was so funny and we are having so much fun with him. He is getting so big!
Anyways! I will be posting up some pics of these fun events hopefully soon! I hate getting behind on this! =) It's just so much fun! =)

I cannot tell you how much fun we are having with this new little one at our house... even if we don't get as much sleep as we would love... but definately worth it! =) Here are a few pictures of the little snuggler~!

It's been a fun but hard process knowing what to do... we've been going between house or condo... house or condo? Well we finally decided on a house in Woods Cross and we are so excited! =) We can't wait to get in there and have our own place!!! It's a cute little split front home with an AWESOME kitchen and Tim's got his "man cave" haha so he can get away from the world and just relax! =)

This game was so much fun! Matt and Mal we able to come with us and we had a blast! We got tickets on the 10th row, so close! So we found Courtney's twin! I know the picture is kind of far, but she looks so much like Court. Tim is 26 I can't believe we have been together for a year and a half! It's so much fun learning more and more about each other and sharing every moment with each other! =) I love Tim and we are so HAPPY!!! =)

1 Year Anniversary!

2010-01-17T14:02:00.003-07:00

So Tim and I have been married for 1 year now! It is seriously so CRAZY how fast time has flown by! I just want eveyone to know how much I LOVE MY HUSBAND! He is so good to me and has so much patience with me. I'm so grateful to have found him and can't think of what my life would be like without him! I love him so much!!! Tim is so good at keeping the house clean ... sad to say that he does it more than me, but he does so much for me and I cannot thank him enough! Last night we went to dinner at Tepanyaki's and it was the best dinner we have had in a long time! It was so yummy and so entertaining! We also went up to the Dew Tour yesterday and had a great time together! In December we decided to go to Hawaii as a Christmas/Anniversary gift and I cannot tell you how much fun that was to just be with each other! I absolutely loved it, we had a blast! I love Tim so much and I can't wait to see what's in store for us next!

Holiday Fun!

2010-01-04T20:16:00.006-07:00

Gotta love Christmas time! I know there are a ton of pictures but I just couldn't choose! =) We had such a fun time this Christmas, having it be our first one together. We had a bunch of fun with family, friends, and spending it together! We went to temple square with Danny and Cassidy and had some hot chocolate to keep us warm while walking around. We also got to enjoy a Christmas story from mom and her exciting enthusiasm while reading it. Polar Express is one of our favorite movies around Christmas time, along with Christmas Vacation (Tim's favorite). I'm so blessed to have such a loving husband who has been so good to me since the day we met, especially since we've been married. Can you believe that it's almost been a year?!? It has flown by so fast! I can't believe it. I love Tim and can't wait to see what's in store for us next! HAPPY NEW YEAR to all!!! =)

My first batch of candy canes made at mi casa! Tim is such a good helper... especially with throwing flour haha. The place was a mess, but definately worth it.

Our cute Christmas stockings that I made all by myself! =)

Mom reading her christmas story!

Kauai Hawaii Christmas Vacation

2010-01-02T14:54:00.002-07:00

So Tim and I decided to go on a trip to Hawaii this year for Christmas and our 1 year Anniversary. We had so much fun and are so grateful that we were able to go on this trip! Here are some pictures that we were able to catch! Enjoy!

Ok so we were trying to get a fun picture saying Merry Christmas. Right as I was finishing, the wave came up and washed it all away! It was pretty funny.

Waimea Canyon! It was a little cloudy but still gorgeous! It looked similar to the Bryce canyon and the Grand canyon, but had a lot of green on it. It was really stunning!

Timmy loved playing in the Ocean. He's such a stud

Ok, so scrabble was one of our favorite games over there, and Tim ALWAYS wins... this is his concentrated face when he's losing! haha.

I'm winning!

the beautiful view from our pool at our awesome resort!

We were so lucky to get on this plane! It was totally overbooked and we were on standby. We were so happy to get on! =)

Apple Sauce!!!

2009-11-03T21:38:00.005-07:00

Making Apple Sauce with mom was so much fun! Courtney and Mom picked about 100 or so apples and it was a lot more work than we had anticipated... we only got about 10 jars of apple sauce!!! Can you believe it?!? Oh well we still had a bunch of fun grinding apples and just being together! =) I love making new things and having fun with family!

By the way ... the apples sauce is suuuuper yummy!

Football at the Park!

2009-11-03T20:58:00.003-07:00

So we went to the park for a fun birthday party for the September October birthdays. They started a game of football and everybody joined in! It was so much fun. Steve was telling all of the kids on his team to go and hug someone so they can't move. Haha it was so funny! This was so much fun to watch everyone interact with each other and have such a fun time.

I officially have the cutest nieces and nephews!

Craft Night!

2009-10-12T21:34:00.006-06:00

Craft Night with the girlies while the boys were at Priesthood. We made some blocks that had the seasons on each side so we could keep it out all year long! This was so much fun! We used Dad's printer to pirnt out the stickers in our favorite fontswith all of the seasons so everyone could pick out what fonts they wanted to use! Thanks for such a fun night Ladies!!!

We had a ton of fun and couldn't stop painting/decorating when it was time for dinner. We had so much fun with Mom, Court, Ash, Grams, Stacey, Pam and Tiffy. Not all of us did the blocks so in some of the pictures you'll see other projects around! We had so much fun and can't wait until we do this again!

Tiff helping me a lot with my decorations!

Stacey painting away~!

Ash and her hat that she and her mom spray paited and glittered and put some awesome deco on!

Mom and I painting together!

Grams with her awesome decorating skills.

Mom posing for the camara.

Court very very concentrated on her blocks!

Here is how my Blocks turned out!

Then the guys got back and turned on a football game! It was awesome! =)

Our First Time Camping!

2009-09-06T16:51:00.006-06:00

So I got home the other day and Tim randomly asked if I wanted to go camping!? So we hurry and packed up ... went and got Steve's truck and headed up to Bountiful peak. On our way up we stopped on the side of the canyon in the perfect spot to watch the sunset since I'm in love with them! Anyways, we got up there and found a campsite and started to find some wood for our fire! Tim took an ax and started to chop the rest of a dead tree down so we could put it in the fire, while i found some kindling and started making a teepee. Tim found a bunch more sticks and our fire turned out awesome! We had a blow up mattress so we could put it in the back of the truck... but we didn't realize that it was about 2 feet thick! haha and we only had a hand blow up pump so it took us ab out an hour to blow up the whole mattress. Once we were done and sweating a lady came over from the campsite next to us and asked if we needed an electrical pump, haha a litte too late! So then we started up our fire and roasted marshmallows and made s'mores and roasted some mamba's... MMMMM SOOO YUMMY! =) We then got all of our bedding ready and watched a movie on Tim's laptop! It was a great way of camping ... even though we were frozen the next morning! Haha we had a BLAST!

Fun Cooking!

2009-09-06T16:33:00.004-06:00

Ok so I went and saw Julie and Julia with Jettilyn a couple of weeks ago and it made me want to cook. So I decided that I would cook for Tim before he got home from school. I decided to make something healthy and yummy so I cooked some Salmon. First time ever cooking this dish! I turned out to be pretty deliciuos! Tim loved it, and I liked it ... I'm not s huge fish fan but i'm liking it more and more! We're also going to Alaska this next week so I get to try the good seafood!!! =) Yay can't wait!

I'm now attempting to cook a new meal once a week while Tim is at school at nights. =) I can't wait to see what will happen with that! Hopefully I will keep it up!

Lake Powell Again!

2009-08-24T21:47:00.006-06:00

So I know that I just did a post about Powell ... but we went again luckily! We had a blast! It was perfect weather... hot hot hot and warm water! Yay! It was perfect! =) Grams and Gramps came with us; Casey and Michelle; and Andee my favorite girl ever came along too!!! I have to say that I absolutely love Lake Powell and couldn't ever get sick of going each year. So Tim had to work for the weekend cuz they had a huge event at the Miller Raceway for work. So I was under the impression that he would not be joining us for Lake Powell... little did I know ... he was surprising me. Everyone went out on the last run of the day and I decided to stay on the houseboat with mom, dad, grams and gramps. I was too in to my book to set it down (which is very abnormal for me if any of you know me haha). Anyways it was getting darker and the boat still wasn't back. I kept asking my mom why they weren't back yet ... little did I know, they were picking up Tim at the Marina. When the boat got back, my mom hinted to me to come and help catch the boat on the back of the houseboat, and I simply said "Oh they'll be fine, they've got plenty of people on the boat." So I started to walk into the kitchen when I saw Tim running to the front of the houseboat to greet me!!! I love my husband! It turned out to be the best trip ever! =)

Check out the CURL in Dan's hair! haha it's awesome!

Tim and I working on our tricks! =) We love to wakeboard!

Summer Fun!

2009-07-24T22:13:00.004-06:00

Tim and I at the Widowmaker with Rockwell. We definately forgot our sunscreen ... the next day... we had definate sunglass marks on our faces haha it was pretty funny. Me watchin my baby from the top of the semi. Getting a good view of the riders climbing up the widowmaker. Havin a good time!

Rodeo Time!

We went to the Camas rodeo with a bunch of friends and had a blast! It was my very first Rodeo and i loved it!

Here is Danny and Cassidy Back some of our very close friends! Other friends that came were Tyler, Camille, Matt & Mal johns, and Greg and Lauren Sodoberg! It was tons of fun! We went boating the next day and had a great time but my camara battery died and so I didn't get to take many pictures! =)
We decided that I really need a hat and boots for next year! =)

Sun Valley with the Goalen's

2009-07-24T21:04:00.005-06:00

The whole Goalen Gang that went up! =)

Mark and Peyton on our long bike ride! Steve! He and Jeannie were champs on this bike ride. Steve had his camara and was loving the picture taking.

This really was so hard to take this picture... We almost crashed! Good thing the helmet was on haha.

Peyton, Kaders and I eating our yummy creamies! We these boys would come and wake Tim and I up by pounding on our door! haha They were so fun to be around. The best part was when Kaders and I were on a team together playing cards! He's such a good helper!

Cute Peyton at the beginning of our journey, he was such a trooper and did the whole 10 mile bike ride! It was so fun to see his little legs truckin along a lot faster than everyone else's! =)

Little Courtney and Ben! These 2 did great! They were so happy most of the time and just loved being in their little buggy.

Little Kaders having a ball! He's just the cutest little guy ever!

We had a blast on this trip! Thanks to Steve for getting everything set up and ready to go so we could all have an enjoyable time. Tim and I can't wait until we get to go on the cruise in September with everyone. It's going to be a blast!

Lake Powell in June!

2009-07-20T22:44:00.002-06:00

Lake Powell was so much fun! We had a fun football game going along the beach! Haha It was a blast... except that all of our suits were full of sand!

Jettilyn and I!!!
Good game of scum up ontop of the houseboat.
The girlies!

So there is a really funny story that goes along with this.... Tim was wakeboarding, and someone in the boat decided to throw the football to him so he could catch it. Didn't quite make it there so we kept turning around and around trying to pick it up! Finally Tim got it and threw it back to the boat where it bounced off one of the wake boards and fell back into the water... right then Danny jumped into the water after the football! Tim still wakeboarding didn't see him jump in and Danny finally came up out of the water right next to Tim! Tim almost ran Danny over. It was pretty funny but kinda scary at the same time! haha

Tim and I ... I couldn't get him to smile! Court and I burfing ... A.K.A bum surfing. It's the greatest wambo/word combo. =) This was so much fun! A lot easier than last year! haha =)

Ash and I with our awesome wind blown hair. Lake powell brings out the best looks in people I swear! haha

I love boating!

Sisters

Graduation Day! Yay!

2009-06-01T21:50:00.002-06:00

Morgan and I at Graduation!

Random fun with Family and Friends!

2009-06-01T21:10:00.004-06:00

Tim and I went up to park city to go shopping for my birthday! We saw the most beautiful sunset, you can kind of see it in the background!So I promise I am not a freak ok?? We were trying to get my fake nails off without killing my nails by ripping them off. But the problem was ... we didn't have the right nail polish remover... it needed to be pure acetone and it wasn't ... so it didn't really work! haha Oh well!!! It was still funny! =)

All of the girlies on my daddy's side of the family for Mothers Day! =)

Tim and I at the Real Salt Lake game with Steve and Aly... Aly we totally should have gotten a picture together! What were we thinking haha! =) This was really fun! I also should have taken a picture of the band/crazy people behind us. They brought in drums and tons and tons of confetti and were banging their drums throughout the whole game and throwing confetti all game long!!! I'm surprised some of them didn't pass out because they were singing so loud!

Vegas supercross! This was in the Monster place where there was a great view of the holeshot! It was pretty sweet

We had a game night at our house with Court Rob Schonie and Preston and it was so much fun!

!~Pirates Cove~!

2009-05-07T00:13:00.003-06:00

This house was seriously amazing! ... There are 3 pools... about 5 houses with who knows how many bedrooms in each house! This was where we stayed while we were down in Vegas for the supercross finals! It was so much fun! We definately had to jump from the highest point they would let us... you know Tim ... he's kind of a daredevil and ... you know me .. I can't let anyone show me up haha so we jumped from the second tear... they weren't letting anyone to the top one. =) It was so much fun!!!

This Rope swing was awesome! =) We had so much fun with it!!! =)

Salt Lake Supercross at Rice Eccles!

2009-05-07T00:06:00.002-06:00

Tim and I up in the suites area watching the final races! This was so much fun.... too bad it was raining all day long but we still had fun! The track
The Semi from way up hi... There were so many people there!

Easter!

2009-05-06T23:38:00.002-06:00

Easter egg dying as a family! =) haha This was oh so much fun! =)

Danny loved his chocolate rice crispies =)
These were so delicious ... the most fun part about it was shaping the rice crispie treats into the egg shape haha! =)

The Delicious Caramel and Chocolate dipping sauce ... very thoughtful Courtney!

Shaping eggs!! ... We put red dye in the second batch and they turned PINK!!! My favorite =) haha

Tim even got in on the buttery egg shaping! =)

The Goalen eggs all done! =) this was so fun!

St George fun and "The Break Down"

2009-05-06T22:58:00.004-06:00

The reason for the sad faces .... is because ... on our way down to St George to judge a dance competition ... 8 miles outside of Beaver ... the car broke down! =( haha.... but seriously.

The town truck ride was fun haha Ash and I squoze in the front seat with the really nice tow guy. He even knew some of my mom's cousins haha small world!

Mom and I! Taking a break from the world ... just chillin in the hot tub! We are twins! =)

The Fellas ... except for my love because he couldn't come down. =( But they are all off to Priesthood for General Conference. =)

2009-03-27T12:07:00.004-06:00

Another Road Trip, this time to VEGAS!

So a little bit about mine and Tim's marriage. For the first 2 weekends, Tim was gone in California for work to some moto-cross events. For the 3rd and 4th weekends we were gone to San Diego and now to Vegas. Our lives have been crazy but fun at the same time!

We totally copied Brad and Ash in this picture but it was so funny I had to take a picture in front of this, haha. This was right outside of the ESPN Zone restraunt, where we went for Brad and Tim's birthday lunch/dinner. It was a bunch of fun! =) This guy was awesome! Of course I had to take a picture with the mnm guy! I'm for sure a picturaholic (if that eve makes sense). Thanks to Tim for putting up with my picture taking habit! He'll thank me later! =)
We got to visit the Las Vegas Temple! It was so pretty and different than some other ones that I have seen. Again we had fun taking pictures. We're weird I know. Tim wasn't cooporating very easily with a couple of pictures so we started being a little too silly haha.

The reason for going to Vegas was for a cheer competition that I was in. We got 2nd place and had so much fun! I hadn't competed since high school so it was good to finish out cheering with a really fun competition! Tim was such a good supporter through practices and coming and watching me at all of my competitions. I just love him! =)

2009-03-27T11:55:00.003-06:00

We took a road trip to San Diego for Tim's work. We got to go to a moto-cross race! It was so cool, I hadn't ever been to one. There are so many qualifying rounds all day long and then a few major races at the end of the day. We were working for the day races but then got to go in annd watch the end races. It was a lot of fun! =)

You can kind of see the track in the background, it was cool to watch them start... that was my favorite part. There were some people that would bump each other just to get in front of the other riders, which I guess is understandable since they were racing haha. It was fun =)

2009-03-27T11:05:00.007-06:00

OUR HONEYMOON!!!

We had such a great time on our Honeymoon. We went to Puerto Rico and it was so much fun. It was like heaven on earth. Haha that sounds cheesy but it seriously was. We got to go to the Rain Forest where we went to 2 waterfalls. One of which Tim decided to take a bath in haha just kidding ... but seriously he dunked himself in. It was so much fun. I also got in and it was so so so cold!

We went on a Kayak tour the same day later that night to go to Bio Bay. Bio Bay was a little lake that you kayaked to through a really cool river, where you are surrounded by tree's and they hung over our heads with just enough space between them to see the bright stars! It seriously was so cool. Once we got to the middle of the river we started noticing that when we put our ore in the water it was lighting up. We started to see some fish lit up. I had a tiny little fish jump into our kayak right into my lap and it freaked me out!!! It jumped out so Tim didn't believe me haha. I almost tiped us over. Anyways, once we got the the bay it was so beautiful. We got together as a group and he explained the name of the bay. Bioluminecent Bay is full of microscopic things that when moved, light up. So we got to put our hands in the water and our hands lit up! It really was so awesome. Anyways we had a blast doing that!

The next day we got to go to one of the most GORGEOUS beaches ever. It was one of the top 10 beaches in the world! It's called Culebra Island. One of the closest places to heaven on earth. We took a tour boat with about 20 other people over to this island and went snorkling and walked along this amazing beach. When we were snorkling, we saw some jelly fish and one of them decided to give Tim a little sting. these jelly fish weren't very big but it left a good mark on his neck. =( These pictures don't even come close to comparing what it looked like in real life but i'll give you just a little peek. =)

This beach was so shallow as you can see, we walked out so far... even i could touch way out there!!! =) We had such a fun time on our honeymoon and are sad that it is over! We want to go back so bad! =) Can you believe that we have been married for a little over 2 months now? I can't. it is just flying by right before our eyes!

2009-03-24T16:48:00.004-06:00

Here are a few pictures of the best day ever! =) Everything turned out great! Thanks to everyone who helped out and made it all possible for this amazing day to happen! =) This was fun we jumped off this ledge and Tim got so high with his heel click. I was on my way down haha.

Christmas was so much fun! We got some sweet gifts and had some fun family parties!

This night we were passing out our sweetrolls! Every year my family makes these delicious sweet rolls and we pass them out to the whole neighborhood for their christmas gift! It's just a fun tradition that we've done for many years. We had everyone there and even though it was really cold we still had so much fun!

I love this picture! We just love each other! =)

Wow I haven't been on here for so long! I'm sorry I promise to do better! Tim and I are getting married in less than 2 weeks! It has come so quickly and we are so excited for the planning to be over with. It's fun but a lot of work. =)

We went skiing after Christmas and had so much fun! We decided the night before that we weren't going to go but it was sunny the next morning and we couldn't pass it up! My favorite part about the whole day was when we were skiing through all of the powder!

Me and Tim on the lift!
