Here are some pictures of our trip to Flaming Gorge. We went on July 20th for our anniversary trip. It was amazing I have never been there, I had no idea that there was a cool bridge, and a cemet dam in the state if utah. It is about four hours from our house you go through Heber to vernal then to the dam, but don't drive too far then you are in Wyoming.
The first night we stayed in Heber at Daniels summit. It is so incredible! They have a indoor swimming pool, hot tub, a patio for every room, large tub in the bathroom, HBO, fireplace, and yummy sparkling cider in the bucket of ice. You feel like heaven. There is also great food at the place next door that they own. I love it and recommend it to all..
The second night also know as the nightmare place. We stayed in a place named spring creek ranch. The room was so tiny with no bathroom, there was a community bathroom we all shared with well water that smelled like sulfur. We did atleast have air conditioning, that is all besides a twin bed. The crazy part is that we paid the same as daniels summit lodge. I really disliked it. That is what I get for a last minute trip.
We took a dam Tour and it was great. There were turbines, and fish along with an elevator. It was so neat and it was FREE! We went inside of the dam which they just started doing again, about three weeks before we came. We were lucky..

Eric's Birthday Party




I gave Eric a surprise birthday party! I did so good keeping it a secret it was a miracle. He thought that we were going to dinner with his parent in Salt Lake City, and that my mom was coming over to watch Jaxon. The truth be told I couldn't of pulled it off without my mom, she did alot of the work. He was surprised when people started to show up at our house at 7:00pm. I had cake, pizza, soda, and ice cream. He was actually looking forward to steak, what a liar I was...oooh! He thank me however , and all those that came. It mean't so much to him. HAPPY 30th B-DAY ERIC!!!!!

Another Job for Eric

I feel so bad for Eric. He has been through so many jobs this year. It has been a great stress on the family. The pay has been so much less, and we haven't been able to afford health insurance. The insurance at my work and at his jobs have been about $ 500.00 a month, that is half of my monthly income. YIKES!!! So needless to say we have been uninsured for months now. Eric wasn't at fault for losing his job earlier this year, Milgard who we loved laided him off along with everyone else. The Utah location went out of business. So he has been trying to find that right job for months now.
Well, on his birthday of all days he got lucky. He got a supervisor position at Best Vinyl in American Fork only a few miles from our house. Compared to Springville where he drives now, and the airport he drove to before that. After 30 days the supervisors get paid health insurance for FREE!!!! That is like a $500.00 bonus every month. We are so lucky. I have been praying so hard for a better job, and that I can stay home with Jaxon. He still doesn't make enough that I can stay home, but you can't have everything. The pay is also better now, so I am so excited. He starts the 20 0f this month. CONGRATS ERIC!!!! YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!!

Jaxon the magician

So my son is only eight months old and is making me crazy. He learned to crawl this month. This also means that he has learned to climb the stairs that means no down just up so I am afraid that he will get really hurt, he pulls himself to standing anywhere, he has pulled himself out of the his crib, and throws things out of the crib. Then I went in yesterday morning to get him out and he learned to strip and take off his diaper. I thought they were older when they did this. Boy do I have my hands full! FUN!!!

He also enjoys hunting the cat. He would be good at it if he wasn't so loud. Right before he gets her he squeals in delight, which causes her to run away. I laugh everytime. One day he will get her..
