Snoqualamie Falls

Today I was thinking about one of the many places on earth I miss so dearly and that place is Snoqualamie Falls! For me I have a very deep love for this location as I worked there off and on for about 7 years growing up! I did anything from housekeeping, reception to activities, and even got to help out with some weddings! What fun memories I have at this beautiful place. When I ran across this photo I loved it and just had to share! This was such a fun place to work and a better place to visit! I love the Salish Lodge!

Good times

Dear Jared,

Even though you are mad at me I just want you to know how much I LOVE YOU! For anyone reading this, remember my blog is a time to write things I want to remember! Today I want to just let my little brother know I love him!

Tillery Time

Oh I was in so much need of a Tillery fix and I got it! I have not seen our good friends since hunter was just a few months old and oh how we have missed each other. It was so fun to kinda just picked up where we left off and catch up! We sure had a grand old time! Their boys are so stinking cute and I was so sad they had to leave today! They got here last night in time for some yummy dinner and cinnamon roll making time and then we loved that they got to stay the night! I wish they lived closer but I know whenever we do get to see them we always have so much fun! Thanks for the visit guys! Can't wait to see you again in July!

Long day

I have had such a bummer of a day! I won't get into it because lets just say it is a day I wish I could forget completely! Thank goodness I have a wonderful man that stands by my side when chaos hits! Anyways it is almost 12 at night and although I am exhausted I can't sleep so I got up paid bills, cried a little and then I looked on my email and got this wonderful email from my mom! She is so stinking cute her associates degree picture got made into an advertisement and then I found myself smiling! Good job mom! Now with some warm and fuzzy feeling inside I can maybe just maybe try to fall asleep! Lets hope tomorrow brings some sort of joy!!! I need it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SNAKES

Let me just start out by saying I can't believe I have waited this long to tell you all about SNAKES!!!! For you see Hunter is the most consistant child you will ever meet! He has always loved, Trains and Tools! However, in the past 3 months he has a new LOVE, YES, SNAKES!!!!! I don't know how this happened but what I do know is Ryan and him have to watch a snake show regularly and from the moment Hunter is awake until the moment he goes to bed all I hear is, "Mom, look snake" He knows so many different kinds of snakes it is not funny! His imagination has really taken off and every thing has to do with SNAKES!!!! HELP I hate snakes!!!! These photos below are what Hunter now makes "SNAKE DENS" and then Yes, he will sleep in them!!!! It gets a little exhausting hearing about snakes 24-7 but at the same time it is so cute! There is a show Hunter really enjoys on Animal Planet called Wild Recon! Hunter will also pretend to catch a snake, identify it, get a vial of blood for research and then yes get a vial of venom for more research! It is so funny to hear him talk about what he is doing to the snake and how he will not harm the snake he just needs more information for RESEARCH!!! YIKES! Who is this kid? And then there is the pretending he is a snake (mainly a cobra) He gets so serious and crawls around the house! Now if he is a Bush snake I find him up on the top of dressers, counters and trying to climb the walls very slowly! OH ME OH MY!!!! BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This one is a snake's den and what you can't see is he went into the garage and got a ton of rope and put it under all the pillows! Then when it came time for him to take a nap he said, "mom, can I sleep in my snake den?" Sure why not child of mine! I won't stop you from sleeping in harms way??? (thats what I wanted to say except I just said, SURE!


This is the kind of snake den he makes for himself and Yes he is inside, HISSING!!!! Be nice cobra snake!!!!!

Daddy time

Yesterday was so fun for Hunter because Ryan took him camping! It was the Father Son campout in our ward and when Ryan got off work he came home and got Hunter and their first stop was to KFC and then off to the campground! Hunter loved it! He loves hanging out with his Daddy and I am so glad they have a wonderful relationship! You may wonder what I did which a quite night???? I had a friend over and we ate pizza and drank pop late into the night then her and I woke up and headed over to pick up our Bountiful Basket! It was a great weekend!

Oh to have seen it before!

Yet again I find myself disappointed that I did not take a before shot! I have been working my royal bootie off getting our front yard in ship shape! The man that lived in our home before did not own a mower so this yards needs tons of TLC!!!! Although you can't really appreciate all this edging, cutting down an ugly tree, weeding and tons more you can at least see my progress thus far. My neighbor redid his yard and gave me all of his edging which as you can see is looking good! Still a work in progress especially because there is SO much ROCK!!!!
