{Tag Your It}

1. If every job paid $50,000 a year, and you had no physical or mental limitations, what would you do? I think that it would be fun to be a 911 operator.

2. Name a person you regularly encounter (outside your family) who brightens your day. Melissa she is the most honest person I know, she is a good listener, gives good advice and always is fun to joke around with and laugh with.

3. In twenty years, what do you think you will miss most about your life now? The girls in 20 years will be grown up and have lives of their own and I will miss the daily contact with them. A kiss, a fight in the car, a hug, being able singing as loud as we can not matter how bad we sound. Just everything..
4. What’s something you appreciate about your spouse? That he plans dinner and cooks for the girls and I. Without him we would starve.
5. What is your favorite routine, household chore? Lately my fav has been taking a laundry basket and going around from the back seat of the car, through the garage and into the house loading up all the 6-11
size shoes that are constantly all over the place and then organizing them in the hanger on the back of the girl’s door… Buy the time anyone does that there isn’t much time @ my house to do any other cleaning. HA HA HA

6. What’s a book you return to occasionally? Don’t read…. @ all haven’t ever read a book not even for high school… However so many people are talking about these TWILIGHT book series, I might try one out.

7. Favorite Small Pleasure? Taking a HOT bath @ the end of every day.

8. Favorite time of the day? Picking up the girls from school. Even though they usually fight me to leave the Scott residents, I love seeing them after being @ work all day.

9. Name a person who performed what they thought was a small act of service, but ended up being a big deal to you: Brian made the girls and I a huge lunch on labor day afternoon when we got home from Jackson he had it all planned out and even with some of my favorite foods (it was the last thing I expected since he worked 88 hours that week was his on call week. I thought it was very sweet of him.

10. Name someone who somehow changed your life. I can’t just name one… Mom, Dad, Brian, Taylor & Brian. Probably everyone who’s close enough to me that they reading our blog

11. Consider what you do each day. Think of one attribute or trait that you bring to your daily work that is a strength—what is something you do really well? I feel that I am very open minded about almost anything. I think one of my stronger traits is that I can use humor just about anywhere or about anything.

Please take the time to do this tag!

******LOTS OF MEMORIES*******




While driving around Rexburg this week end while the girls and I were there. I got a huge amount of Bitter-Sweet. I began thinking of all the memory's that Brian and both have seperatly and together in our home town, it was all I could do to hold back all the tears. Part of me wishing we could be back in Idaho and a huge part of me that I wouldn't have wanted it any other way moving to utah when we were first engaged was so healthy for our young marriage... Alot of our memories involved this 1994 Ford F150,( I have to leave it @ that to keep it PG13) and as some of you know last summer Brian bought it back and had it with him for awhile, then sold it to my cousin Landen (he said is was such a girl getter that Landen should have it for High school).. I laughed when he said he was going to buy it back, then I knew he had to have it.. He would call me just to visit while he drove around after work with Porter, Ty, Jason and who ever else that was still around from our high school years. He was in heaven just sitting in her listening to the radio the only thing that would have made his summer is if the girls were lined up on main street begging to his date on a friday night. As much as he likes his new truck he will probally end back up having red and whity just to have her back... Oh I just love thinking about all the things we did all the memories we have togther with all our friends and just when we were sneaking around to be together all hours of the night.. (ya I can now make this public knowledge I think that I have finally told atleast my mom everything) HA HA HA HA Love you so much Brian.

SPOILED BY GRANNY CRAIN




These two girls are few of the many that are spolied by GRANNY Crain!!! She still spoiles Brian when he lets her. The girls and I went to visit and after playing waitress and kitchen with them, they were hungry for some cereal (go figure) of course I had no say Granny let them pick it out and quick they were off and shoveling it in.. Then little miss Brilyn decided that it would taste better if Grandma spoon fed it to her. Taylor wasn't missing out on the action she sat there with her mouth open till she got some.

~~~GO MELISSA~~~




Gold's Gym made a huge mistake for not giving Melissa a killer deal on a new membership.. But we are glad Melissa got us set up for a tour and 1 week free pass to Lifetime fitness in South Jordan... It is the bomb!!! The cleanist, nicest gym I have ever seen.. Here's the story behind these Pic's. Melissa challange the sales rep (Rusty) to a rock climbing contest to win us both an additional free week. It was awesome... without hesitation she jumped right into the action, got her harness on and the ropes hooked. Rusty went 1st and went up to the top bell in 14.21 seconds and Melissa was right on his tail coming in @ 16 something all I know is I bet her never challanges her to anything... Afterwards a few of the employees that were spectating with me informed us that Rusty use to work the rock climbing pit when he first started @ the gym as an employee. In my eyes MELISSA spanked him since she had never done it before... Even though she come in second we didn't leave without getting a good deal, she was able to get some of the sign up fees dropped and 2 free nice, gym bags.. We were both able to get Brian and Seth to sign up and the kids can go as well and either play in the kids center or we can take they swimming and down the water slides, Brian is really excited to go start working out @ nights and playing some B-Ball. He says he is going to take a few sessions with Melissa so he can get Chizzled Abs like her's.

~~~~~Pre-School~~~~



Brilyn started pre-school with Meilssa again yesterday, she looked so cute in her new pink and tan camo, but was a little on the mean side and wouldn't pose for a quick pitcure so we got one today... On sunday Taylor went to church with Mykelle and Brian and I took Bripie to get a few things she got new shoes & a BACK-A-PACK-A which she is so proud of.... She is so full of non-sense most of the time. I hope she learns as good as Taylor did in pre-school, if not I am sure that she will hold the record for longest TIMEOUT..

DOING GREAT



Taylor is doing so well... And so is Dad and Mom we have realized that she is fine. I drop off Brilyn and pickup Alex, Melissa's neighbor boy who is so kind to walk Taylor to her door and they picks her up from her teacher after school and Stacy Alex's mom picks them up and takes Taylor to Melissa's for us. Taylor has loved every mintue of her new class, she has been pretty good about waking up for school and the past 2 nights has been GREAT at going to bed early....

Such a Cutie



......Our Baby isn't a Baby ANYMORE......


Today was a very emotional day for mom and dad.. Tater started school today and to be honest was HORRIBLE for us, she was more than excited. We both took off the morning @ work got Brilyn dropped off @ Melissa's and headed over to East Midvale Elementary. Taylor was very excited and just kept saying she was going to get 20 new friends today.. We found her class and got her in line for when the bell rang, Ms. Lund her teacher came out to the line and before you knew it we were both in tears and Taylor wasn't even looking back for us or looks as if she was scared or concerned about anything. We were able to get a few pictures of her before class and after she got sat down @ her chair.. She peeked @ us and smiled but with no sadness on her face.. We then raced outside to catch some clean air (too clear the tears). It was so cute to see her be so independant but breaks are hearts that she is growing up too fast... This girl is going to be so busy fighting off the boys....

Rachel on Vacation @ Lake Creek Ranch...






Rachel is in love with riding horses and as often as I get a chance I invite her to come along with me and the girls ( we all know how much I get to go and ride being that my husband is not a horse person ) So my dad, my mom, Brittany and I took Rachel on a 3 mile ride @ the ranch, she loved every mintue of it including the part where I was riding my dad's knew spolied rope horse STICH who apparently hasn't been in much water before, decided to take me for a short swim while dad and I were crossing the river side even though it was just a little laugh and I was soked from neck down. She was so thrilled to have witness it and even though she was sore and the rain had come out she didn't even hesitate on the next days worth the ridding, Makayla, Rachel and I went out again where we saw a huge elk. Atleast huge to us those pictures are on Rachels camera so I will have to Blog them later... Rachel we were so glad to have you come, sure makes my 5 1/2 hr drive seem like nothing and you fit in perfectly with our family.

*****Free Daycare*****






This past weekend the girls, Rachel and I headed to Jackson Hole to visit mom and dad. Dad had paid to have a handmade kids saddle for his grandkids which is so small and cute. The kids had so much fun ridding Hollywood, he is such a good horse. I told my dad he should invest in like 5 more they we could all come home and drop the grandkids in the arena and they would be fine and not much mess to clean up after. Teegan, Mckenna, Brilyn and Taylor all took their turns showing grandma and grandpa how cool they were.

Brilyn wants to be like BRIDGER so Bad!!!




Ever since Brandi and Jason watched the girls for us when I had surgery,if Brilyn is outside she trys to pee on the fence or by the trees. But if she is inside she will push her stool up to the toilet, take off all clothing and climb on the the toliet backwards to use the potty. Thanks Bridger.... We love you and she is so cute doing it.

Ryker & Parker



We had so much fun visiting with the new babies. Ryker is a couples months old now and looks exactly like his big brother Carter he is so cute and little miss BRILYN wanted nothing more than to just hold the babies. Parker is only a few weeks old and is very loved by all his brothers and sistes.
