Busy Busy Busy

I'm trying to be better at blogging... But i'm not doing very well. Sorry. Last week Justin bought us a new truck. As much as we love old red, that carborator is a killer, especially in the cold winter weather! Justin has been checking KSL religiously and found this truck...fell instantly in love... Called and found out it was available (the 2 people ahead of us bought guns so didn't have the money for it)... Justin put money down on it to hold it...thankfully because that night a couple test drove it and wanted it but because we had money down on it we got first dibbs. I couldn't go pick it up because I had to work, so Justin and his dad had a boys day and picked it up. So meet the Chevy. Yes the Dodge is still sitting behind it in the pic, you just can't see it because the Chevy is HUGE! Its a 2002, lifted, new big tires... It looks pretty sweet and we are loving it! Its nice for Justin in the mornings when he goes to work. It warms up pretty quick which the GMC never did.
We had our nephews this week. Poor Kaiz was in the hospital again so we got the boys overnight. We made homemade ice cream. Played with the nurf guns, ate grilled cheese, hot dogs, mac and cheese, cracker pizza, French toast... I don't think Justin and I have ever eaten that good! Justin played x box with the boys and watched them for about 6 hours by himself. What an awesome man I have!

In June we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary, Sent Landon on his mission, bought a camper., And Added another puppy, Levi, to the family.

In August we were able to Justin’s annual (well hopefully) family reunion.
