It has been a while since I have really posted sorry life has been nuts! Between work, dating, Primary Pres. crap, and Visitation drama my head has been else where. But, figured I would post some of the pictures that my friend Angela took for us for family pics. She even made me do some solo ones so that I could put them on my profile to try and score a date. HA HA HA this dating thing is scary people hated it the first time around you all try doing it a second time! Anyways this is just a few of them. I will try and get on the ball and post about Mason's Baptism and the pictures and things from all of that as well as soon as I can. Sorry I'm a slacker!

Learn to Juggle

First, MOM sorry for this one but, it was too funny especially coming from you!!! So I have to share a funny story. As some of you know my little squirt is a little "She Pimp" she I believe is now up to 6 different boyfriends and let me tell you it is hilarious to drop her off at school they all come running to greet her. Man that girls got skills she needs to teach me. ha ha ha. Anyways the other day Laken got in trouble at school and was not minding or refused to listen. I know big shocker there huh? Anyways so I had to sit her down and have a talk with her that night and the following story comes out as to why she was naughty. "Johnny was being mean to me." Me: "Oh so Johnny was mean so that means you can't listen or mind?" Her: "Yes Johnny was mad at me so I had a bad day." (Oh Drama hello can you imagine the boyfriend fights in High School.) Anyways after our little talk and me telling her she has to act better tomorrow at school she says OK. So the next day we are sitting at the dinner table and I say "Laken were you better for your teacher today?" She says yes and was so proud. Then Grandma pipes in and says "Was Johnny nicer to you today?" Yes, then she goes on to list all of her boyfriends and after a camping trip with my best friend Lou and her family last weekend she has added a new boyfriend to the list. So she says "and I told Johnny that I have another new boyfriend his name is Grayden." Both my mother and me start laughing and say "Lake did you tell Johnny that Grayden was your new boyfriend and that is why he was mean to you yesterday?" She says yes. My mother then proceeds to say "Laken you don't tell your other boyfriends about the other boys." I say "Mother don't be teaching my child to lie and be a cheat!" My mother dead serious says "I am not I'm teaching her how to Juggle" I about fell out of my chair I was laughing so hard. Those of you who know and have met my mother this comment is not something that should have come out of her mouth. Heaven knows I did not get this lesson!!!!
