The happenings of Jagen's birthday

I wanted to share some pictures of Jagen's birthday. She had a good day, and then got celebrate some more yesterday with her friends. Life is good at 10!!

She started the day with an early morning song of "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" from all of us.



"Double digits baby" as Jagen would say.

Tagged...what?

Okay, for a long time I have enjoyed reading these on my friend Heather's blog, but I have never taken the tag (as I will say). But J.D.'s sister Julie has called me out, so I will give it a whirl.

Where was I 10 years ago:

I love this question, because it gave me a moment to reflect. 10 years ago we were living in Provo, UT as struggling students in a basement apartment. I was very pregnant waiting for my first little bundle of joy. Jagen was due on March 3 and I didn't have her until March 12. This was such an exciting time of life. Life was simple then.

Things on my "To Do List" for today:

Well I am quite the list maker as many of you know. I tend to make this infamous list and then not complete it and it rolls over to the next day, or week. So here is a sample of what is on it. Get Jagen's birthday presents,switch bank accounts,make new phone # list, do taxes,organize recipes, organize pictures on computer...the list goes on.


What would I do if I was a Billionaire:

#1 GET OUT OF DEBT!!
Then I would just love to share the wealth, with my family, with the church, with my friends. I would put my money to good use for others. Fun to imagine!

3 of my bad habits:
1. biting my nails
2. throwing away things that others need (ask J.D. and Jagen)
3. Always being late (right friends and family :o)

5 places I have lived:

1. Los Alamos, NM (born and raised, baby)
2. Provo, UT
3. West Jordan, UT
4. Fresno, CA
5. Gilbert, AZ

5 jobs I have had:

1. Cleaned dentist office (high school)
2. File clerk for Los Alamos County Personnel Department (Senior in HS)
3. File clerk for Los Alamos Medical Center
4. Physical Therapy Aide (college)
5. Receptionist for an awesome Physical Therapy office

Something most people don't know about me

I'm a closet MTV Real World, Road Rules Challenge watcher. I have a secret season pass set on the upstairs TV that I watch on Thursday mornings after everyone has left for the day.


Thanks Julie, this was fun and it made me laugh. So this is where I get to tag someone else...HMMMMM how about Misty (maybe this will make her post since it has been awhile).

He shoots...he scores...he loves basketball!

Tyce just finished basketball season. He was on a team with his buddy JT. He has had so much fun. Quite the player, for being one of the smaller kids on the team. Good things come in small packages. Here are a few pictures to share with you. Now on to baseball!
