I think I'm going to take a nice long break from blogging for a while. Lately it's been such a chore! So I am giving myself a free pass out of it. =D

Cottonwood High School's Homecoming dance, 2009






Wow! I thought I would never be able to say that I went to homecoming again, but.... I DID IT!

These 2 girls are in the program we do foster care for. They are awesome girls and needed a Chaperone! I was jumping up and down saying pick me, pick me! I loved high school dances. I chose not to wear a dress because I didn't want to look like I was trying to fit in. I soon found that if I had worn a dress I probably would have looked like the old lady that is out of date. Holy cow! Dress styles have changed since I was in school. They have gone from long flow-ee and puffy princess dresses to form fitting high above the knee and definately sleeveless styles. Most don't have straps at all. Wow! These 2 girls had clothes on, but no one else seemed to have.

Utah State Fair

We went to the fair last Friday (Hey I'm finally getting caught up! =D) It was lot's of fun. Court's brother Quinn and his daughter Sydney came with us, which made it even better. I love fair's and rodeo's well, especially fair's. It brings out every type of person. I feel a sence of community and it makes me think of how great our country is, and how thankful I am for the freedoms we have. Love it, love it, love it. If I ever buy a smoothie or drink, I am lucky if I get one sip because as soon as Carter sees it he says NA NA, NA NA, NA NAAAAAAAAAA!!!! NAAA NAAAAAA!!!! This is what he says when he's hungry or wants food. I even make sure to get him really hydrated before I buy smoothies because I know they are full of sugar and I would rather not give him sugar at night. Well, it never works.... NNNNNNNNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAA NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! =D It's precious though.


Quinn and Carter
This is what got me going. I am way to soft I know, but sitting at the rodeo people watching and Carter waving this flag as happy as could be. I was fighting tears so hard. I knew if Court looked over at me he would start laughing so I always try to just not do it or hide it and tell him later. lol

I think this picture is fun =D Daddy and Carter


Court's Mom told us that we couldn't leave the fair without seeing the sheep. She didn't tell us why, but we figured it out. These sheep were really hung!!!
