Day 26

What do you think about your friends.

I think my friends are the BOMB! I've alway's valued my friends, and that includes many people. I love making new friends, and one of the greatest compliments anyone can give me is to call me "friend". I think about my teenage/college friends often and try to get together with them when ever we possible, but its still not enough. I love sitting and talking and could do it for hours on end, just reminiscing or learning more about people and their lives. I would much rather do that than go "out" and do something where we couldn't visit. If you're reading this there is a very good chance that you are my friend, cause I don't know why anyone else would come here :) So to you I say, thanks for being my friend, and making me the person I am today. You are awesome, and I'm so glad to know ya!

Day 25

What I would find in your bag.

Well since I've pretty much retired my purse and just throw my wallet in Kaelyn's diaper bag when I leave the house, that's the "bag" I'm referring to. In it you will find;

-wallet

-i pod touch

-fingernail clippers

-thermometer

-diapers/wipes

-lotion

-bum cream

-hard candies

-formula powder

-a few toys

-mini scissors

-wrappers/receipts

-gum

-lip gloss/chapstick

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Day 24

Your last five facebook status'

This one is actually pretty hard for me. I am not so good at the face book thing. In fact I spent like 30 minutes the other day trying to figure out how to see status' I've written, to no avail. That was after I figured out what a "status'" even was. Yea so I'm pretty sure I've only typed a "status" once, and it was about how I love being a mom to the cutest little girl ever. So other than sending people a message once in a while, I don't really get the point of face book. Anyone want to explain it to me in their own words :)

Day 23

Something you crave for a lot

Therefore I try not to keep it in the house ;)

Day 22

What makes you different from everyone else.

I can't think of one particular thing that makes me different from everyone else, I guess it's the combination of things I do/enjoy that make me different. So here are some of those things;

I enjoy playing sports-my fav's include volleyball, basketball, tennis & softball. Just started church basketball tonight, and it was a blast. I like basketball so much more now that I don't have to worry about messing up and ticking off my coach. I also like to run, mostly to get/stay in shape, but also cause its a great stress reliever. In the past few years I've started doing a few races and that added a whole new dimension to running. It's so fun to be running with tons of strangers and friends at the same time. I can sew a thing or two, my Grandma Ruth made sure all her granddaughters knew how, and for that I'm thankful. I don't do it much, but I did by my own machine so I can scratch that itch when I get it. I work from home and really like the freedom that gives me as far as work. I like to be able to plan my day and then fit in work around it, rather than the other way around. I love that I can stay home with Kaelyn and take care of her, it is my dream come true. I'm the young women's sports coach and I got to say its my favorite calling yet. The girls are so fun! I've also coached high school volleyball for the past 4 years, and that was so great. There's nothing better than running into your past players and being able to chat it up...I didn't really ever have that with my coaches, so I'm glad I can do it now. It is really important to me to be a positive influence in their lives, and remember that volleyball really is just a sport, and it's for fun.

I love visiting teaching, it helps me break out of my shy shale and make friends. I need to feel like I belong, and I feel that so much lately. I'm one of the biggest eaves droppers you'll ever meet. Wayne is right there with me though. Sometimes we'll go out to eat and just listen to other peoples conversations, and then talk about what they said, incase either of us missed something. I'm a pretty sensitive person, though I try hard not to show it. But if you cry in front of me, I'll be joining in. I spend a good portion of my day fighting back tears, especially reading blogs. I once cried at a commercial, don't even remember what it was for, but that sentimental music got me. Then I started laughing because I was crying. Wayne has even caught me crying at stuff on the Disney channel. He is learning what things will make me tear up, and then look at me just to check. Then I start laughing cause I know its kind of funny, but the tears just come, it's almost like a jerk reaction. Well its late and I can't really think any more, so I'll stop there.

Day 21

Day 20

Someone you love.

Love this pic, do you see how many balls we had to hit?

I laughed pretty hard when I saw the size of that thing. Luckily we didn't waste one of them.

This guy...I love him. Wayne is my best friend, in every sense of the word. Ever since the first day we hung out, we just "got" each other. We have so much in common, in many ways it's like we are the same person, but different :). There are days he will come home and say something like, "What do you think about getting pizza from Mountain Mike's for dinner tonight?" and I seriously was thinking the same thing all day. We read each other's minds ALL. THE. TIME. It used to be a little creepy, but now we just expect it to happen. He is my biggest fan, and supports me in everything I do. Even when I don't support myself, he is there cheering me on. Whether its coming to games when I'm playing or coaching, or driving around to spectate while I'm running a marathon, he's there.

He is good at literally EVERYTHING he tries. From sports, to being a dad/uncle/friend, to work, video games, he just puts his best effort into everything he tries. He loves to be active and I love that about him. He wake boards, water skis, snow boards, snow skis, skate boards, mountain bikes, plays volleyball, basketball, tennis, golf, softball, racquet ball, ping pong, guitar, technology genious...pretty much everything. And he not only plays it, but he plays it well! Plus, he's patient enough to teach me how to do some of it. (Golf, wake/snow board, guitar) My nieces and nephews LOVE him. Whenever they see me the first thing they ask is "Where's Wayne?"

One of my favorite things about him is what a great dad he is. Kaelyn knows when its time for dad to be home from work and when he walks in the door its time to have fun. He gets her giggling everyday. I think I've gotten her to laugh twice! They have such a cute bond, I just love to sit and watch them together. I will never forget something he said after we found out about Kaelyn's condition before she was born. He decided early on that "He was not going to consider His daughter as a trial in life". And he hasn't, not for one day. He saw that she was a blessing before she was even born. He stayed every night in the hospital with me after we had her and slept on the tiny little chair/cot thing. Kaelyn and I are the luckiest girls in the world, Heavenly Father really knew what he was doing when he put us all together. So yea, I love him.

Oh yea, he can run up a wall/tree/rock and do a back flip.

Kaelyn and her dad, he was such a rock while she was in the NICU. I could not have done it without him.

Wake boarding

Water skiing

Our engagement picture, crazy to think how much fun you can have in 5 and a half years. Can't wait to find out what the next 60 years will have in store for us :)
