I found these old pictures of Cam & I and boy have we changed! Cam is not nearly as chubby anymore. The top picture he is about 18 months and the bottom he was 3 months...how time flies! :)

~*What a boy~*

So, my Cam has decided that he wants to start dressing his self lately...This is the outfit that he wanted to wear the other day...if you can't tell it is swim-trunks a R.V. Elks shirt with a tank over the top...I'm not sure why kids go through this stage I think it's funny. He has also just recently started to not want his bath...he has ALWAYS loved his bath and now I have to just dunk him real fast so he won't be mad. Not that I care because then I don't have to watch him while he takes his 30 min bath. I just think that it's funny that he has all of a sudden decide that he is a big boy...YAY! Now if we could only master the whole potty thing!

~*Blessed~*

~Ok so I am feeling a little mushy today and I feel like writing down all the things that I LOVE and are thankful for. First off I LOVE, LOVE my little family...Kris is just the best husband and he does so much for all of us. He is definitly the more patient one...some of you might be a little surprised at that :) but he is. I LOVE watching him with the kids...they LOVE him and he just LOVES them too! I LOVE to see how excited Cam gets every day when Kris gets home. He really is a sweetheart and I LOVE it when he needs a hug 50 times a day I can't get enough of that! Cam also LOVES Faith so much...they get a kick out each other and I just LOVE to watch that! Faith is just a little angel...she is so funny and is learning so much and I LOVE watching her grow up. I am a little sad but it's just amazing. There are just so many things that I find myself over looking some times and when I find the time to just stop and look around I am just amazed at all the little things in life that move me and I am so blessed to have my little family that I LOVE so much and I really hope that I can be better about noticing the little things and not stress out about the big picture. Again I feel that I am truly blessed with what I have and I do look forward to every day and moment to come!

Bikini model?

~We went to Mesa again this weekend and we only took Faith this time...I forget how easy it is to have just a baby and not a 2 year old on my hands! I did miss the little fart! Anyway, we went to the pool and Faith LOVED it! I thought the water would be a little cold but nope she loved it and this was the first time she got to wear her little bikini I thought it was funny!

Please read!

~My brother-in-laws Jarrod and Richie davis' cousin wrote this and I thought it was very interesting...I personally don't know her but I know she is a radio host in Utah and I have to say that I agree with what she says and my sisters also have it on their blogs and I thought I would join them in sharing it with those who visit our blogs...please read again I find it interesting!




Media is trying to brain wash people!
I've been very frustrated today and disheartened with the liberal media’s blatant bias. Never before have we seen such an overt, over-the-top, seemingly coordinated effort by press in totality to back the play of a politician. It is shameless how they are working for Barack Obama and against John McCain. As a newscaster it's an outrage to me. Hosting a live 2.5hr morning show Monday through Friday requires me to stay on my political feet. So, for the past two weeks I've been getting by on 3 or 4 hours of sleep each night so I can watch the conventions both democratic and republican. Never in my life have I witnessed such a bias. I used to really respect Tom Brokaw. After listening to his coverage throughout the 2 weeks of conference I have no respect for the man. After Barack Obama finished his speech last week the libs were singing his praises, putting him on a pedestal. When John McCain finished last night, they didn't have a kind word to say and basically ripped him apart. Now, because this is my blog I can state my opinion. Our country is in trouble! We need a President who will fight for us, our freedoms, and our way of life. I'm not saying I agree with John McCain on everything. But, please weigh the candidates. Evaluate both of their stands on issues. It shouldn't be a popularity vote! Obviously, Obama is better looking, better spoken but his ideas are way off course. Think about taxes, his homeland security, military background, experience, his feelings on abortion. The United States of America is playing a game of Russian Roulette. I didn't wear the uniform and serve our Country to watch it fall apart. If you didn't watch the convention speeches please read them. See what each has to say. Watch the upcoming debates. We have 2 months to make our decision. You may think it doesn't matter but I'm hear to tell you I believe it's a life or death decision. Why am I being so dramatic you may ask? Thing about this. Russia is threatening us everyday as is Iran, North Korea, Cuba. They want you to vote for Barack Obama. He thinks he can solve the problems diplomatically and wants to pull out all of our troops. Diplomacy is great but you can't reason with terrorists!!! These countries are acquiring nuclear weapons at a rapid pace and if we don't stay on the offensive then we will be back on defense like we were before 911. No body wants war but we must protect ourselves. I honestly believe John McCain is the best Presidential pick that we have and we must vote for him. He knows that Washington needs turned upside down. The dems and the repubs have both screwed things up and need reform. I am hopeful he will do it. I like the fiscal responsibility that McCain and Sarah Palin say they will bring. When stories or commentary come from the media please take them with a grain of salt. They are doing everything within their power to make McCain seem inept and Obama as the countries savior of change...the Messiah as they've called him. Don't be fooled and don't fall into the trap they are setting! We must think, evaluate and decide for ourselves. Millions of American's have died to ensure our rights, and freedoms. Voting is very important. Making an informed vote is even more important. I hope and pray for our Country and for the World that we all do our part as Americans. I love American!!!

A.S.U

~That's right every one we went to the A.S.U. game on Saturday and not only that we are season ticket holders! I know, I know you all are jelious! Anyway, I am not a huge football fan but I thought it would be fun to go and give it shot...It would have been funner if it wasn't so HOT! (Go figure) These are the only two pictures that I got because I left my actual camera in the car because of all the hurrying and stress we had just to get to the game...It took us over an hour to find parking which we ended up where we were supposed to have a parking pass but we had already missed the first 4 mins of the game and the guy in the parking was nice enough to let us park there anyway...that was nice! Next time we will be more prepared! Anyway, these are just some I got with my phone...Cam wasn't too sure about any of it and the fireworks scared him but he ended up falling asleep before halftime anyway, but hopefully we will get better ones at the next game!

Miss J

We were sitting at Mandy's and Faith was "on one" she was just being real goofy and this is just one of many pictures that we got of her. Mandy has the others on her phone so when I get them I will put them on. Anyway...it was real funny! I love this little baldy!!!

Camping Pics

~Here are some pics of our camping trip...we only stayed one night but for me that was long enough!We had fun but I am just not a big camping girl! Enjoy!

It started raining so Faith and I sat in the truck!
Cam was in Paradise...he loved climbing the "big rocks"

I just love this picture...too cute!

Cam wouldn't stop bouncing Faith on our bed and she just thought it was funny...I have a feeling she'll be just as naughty!

You Are Aurora! (A.K.A. Sleeping Beauty.)

Thoughtful and loving. Authority figures probably have been sheltering you all of your life. Thankfully you're a very tranquil person who is content with what life has given you, but secretly you want to know how the outside world works.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Birthdays!

We have two birthday's today! My mom and little Dex! I just want to wish them a happy birthday and hope that they have a good one! We wish little Dex was here for his 1st. birthday but hey we already had him a little party when they were here last time but birthday's are always fun to celebrate! Anyway, happy birthday!!! We love you!!!

Poor Camo

~ We were at Mike and Donette's the other day and Cam had a little incident with some bees! He got stung twice on his eye lid and this is how he looked the next day! I felt real bad for him...when he woke up that morning his eye was actually swollen shut so this actually looks better than it was...Anyway, poor little guy he was scared and crying of course but he is ok and is back to his cute self!!!

daddy and kids

~Kris always wants a picture with the kids and every time we have tried to take one the batteries were dead so we finally got a good one the other day and I thought I would put it on here for him.

Congrats!

I just wanted to say congrats to Mandy and Richie on getting their house finished! It has been a long year for them but their hard work payed off and every thing is BEAUTIFUL! I am so excited for them and I know they are so glad that it is done and they can get back to normal life! Congrats again and sorry I wasn't more help! Love you guys!!!

Faith's new earrings!

~Well I finally did it! I got Faith's ears pierced last weekend and these are the best pictures I could put on here. Now my confession...I couldn't do it I had my mom do it for me! She said that she did cry and I knew she would that's why I couldn't do it...She did forget pretty fast though so that was good for both of us I think! They gave her this cute little bag with all the solutions and stuff. Anyway, I am glad that it is over and she looks so pretty and Kris really likes them too!

Time flies!

Faith is 5 months today! I can't believe how fast time flies! She is getting so big already and I am sad! We have had such a blast with her...she is the funnest baby and makes me laugh every day! We are so glad that she is in our life and wouldn't trade her for anything!!!

silly pics

Aunt Denee got these hats for the kids while they were in Ecuador and I thought they were great so I decided to take some snaps for a good laugh! Turns out they are more cute than funny!...I think

the big 2-5

So, Kris' birthday is actually today but...we have softball games on Tuesdays and so I decided to throw a little party last night. The theme was spongebob/mickey mouse chosen by Mr. Cam. He LOVED helping me make the UGLIEST cupcakes in which he did the decorating...he was so good about being patient and waiting to eat them that when it was time to eat them he couldn't keep his eyes off of them and I might add how tired he was but was still able to chow down 3 of them!...You can see in the first picture how he could barley keep his eyes open. :) It was really fun to see how EXCITED Cam was about the whole thing. Anyway, now for the little shout out to Kris...thanks for all the help with the kids...you really are the best husband and dad! You help me out SOO much and I appreciate every thing you do for us! You are always real busy and yet you still make time for me and the kids...you're AWSOME! I love you and hope you have had a GREAT birthday!

play time

No real big story here...Cam was just being cute with Faith and playing with her and I had the camera out so he wanted a picture with her...I thought it was sweet!

best friend

Meet "Puppy"! This is Cam's bestfriend in the whole world! He has been in the family since Cam was 5 months old and we don't go ANYWHERE without puppy! We left it at papa and monna's one night and it was not a good thing! He fell asleep ok but cried for him in the night. We have tried to replace puppy with newer versions twice and apparently they just aren't the same...so, we do have 3 puppies but the NEW ones just don't compare!
