Internet is back:)

2009-02-06T20:12:00.000-08:00

We now have the internet back, yay!!! Will everyone send me your blog addresses so I can fix my page and add them all please!!

I promise I will post more soon!

2009-01-23T19:27:00.000-08:00

We had this wonderful idea to get rid of our internet and start saving the money that we were spending on it:( Not such a good idea!! I really didn't know how much I used it!! Our computer is in the shop right now but should be done soon. I will get the internet back and start updating you all on what is going on. Here is a little bit for now.....

Things have been going farely well for us. Kyle is playing basketball for Roy city now and loves it! He is doing very well in school. I'm so proud of him!!

Parker is going to preschool at Aunt Gingers. She is a great teacher for him! He is having a great time with his best friend Natalie back!! He is such a lady's man:)

Chloe is almost a year old.....WOW how time flys!! She is walking so well. She is such a daddy's girl!!

Gabe and I have decided to live healthier!! We are both working out daily and have lost some weight!!! Daycare has really been good to us!! I have so many kids that I get to choice who I take and who I don't. It makes it alot more enjoyable!!

Hope everyone is doing well!! If you read this Mary I miss talking to you and hope your doing okay!!

I'm Addicted!!

2008-10-23T09:22:00.000-07:00

So I have never been much of a reader but I have found a new love with the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer. I have heard from alot of people how great it is but when you have Millions of kids to take care of during the day, three of them which never leave my side, 2000 sq ft of house to take care of and a husband that works mids, there is no time to take on anything else!! I don't regret starting these though. I just wish I had more time to sit and just read. If you haven't yet picked up this book you should do so! This is coming from someone that HATES reading. I read mostly People Magazine or things like Green Eggs & Ham, lol:-) If you have picked up these books and want to go see the movie. I really would love to have a girls night out with no kids and be able to talk and enjoy a nice night with dinner!

We've got a Crawler!!

2008-09-30T12:25:00.000-07:00

I don't know if I should be Happy, Sad, Scared or Glad, but she just moved both hands and feet TOGETHER!! She is my last baby so in no means am I very excited for her to grow up! It sound selfish but I love her being so dependent of me!! For little Miss. Chloe "Mama loves you and am very excited to you get to explore the world in a whole new way!"
P.S. Don't mind the picture quality. The phone was the only thing I had around at the time:)

Happy 7 Months Chloe!

2008-09-15T21:50:00.001-07:00

My sister is really into photography so she took these wonderful pictures of Chloe on her 7 month old birthday!! "Thank You so much Amber!" We love the pictures and it really captures our beautiful baby girl!

Remember 9/11

2008-09-11T07:08:00.000-07:00

$3.85

2008-08-25T09:08:00.000-07:00

Okay, I know that this doesn't seem like that great of a thing to be excited over but it's better then paying $4.09 for a gallon of gas. This morning after I dropped Ky off for his first day of second grade I found gas at Sam's Club for $3.85, yay!! With Gabe working in Salt Lake gas is a GREAT part of our budget and im more then SICK of paying for it!! I try not to go anywhere just so it can make up for a little of his gas! I just wanted to share my excitement. It still doesn't mean I can actually go anywhere but it might save us a few dollars for now. That is until they start going up again, urg:(

(I'll post pics of Ky's first day later. He looked so cute and happy today!)

School is starting next monday!

2008-08-22T11:53:00.000-07:00

Wow what a cray stressful summer it has been and now it is over, yay!! Last night Kyle had back to school night so we had a chance to meet his new teacher. Kyle is a very shy kid until he gets to know you so he hardly had a word to say to her. Im kind of nervous about this teacher. Everything I keep hearing is very negitive but were going to give her a try for now. Kyle is ready for the new year to begin!
Parker will be starting preschool on the 2nd of September at my sister in laws, Ginger. This is her first year running it and I think she will be great at it. Parker will have a chance to get to know his Aunt and cousins more so that will be great! "Thank You Ginger for taking Parker in, we are all so excited."
Other then that Gabe has a great opportunity coming this next January. He was asked this week to go to Washington DC for the Presidental change of office. Im so excited for him!! Im also excited for some great scrapbooking material:)
Other then that there is alot of complaining I could write about but im trying to think positive. I hope everyone had a great summer!

I have to share this picture!

2008-08-15T20:32:00.001-07:00

This is such a cute picture of Chloe. I was sitting in the backyard with the daycare kids messing around with my phone and captured this image of her fat checks and beautiful smile!

Chloe is 6 months old.....TODAY!!

2008-08-13T20:23:00.000-07:00

Wow.....How time flys! Six month ago today we welcomed our 7lbs. 5oz. little princess into this world. What a blessing she has been to our family! Since Febuary 13 till now she has been the center of attention of our house and I swear she knows it!
1 week old!

Sleeping Beauty

Now she is all smiles!! Sitting up, eating baby food, playing with her toys, laughing at her brothers, sitting in her jumper, just enjoying herself. She never stops and keeps us busy all the time. I wouldn't change it for anything though! I Love You Chlo - Chlo!

Snail Hunters!!

2008-08-05T21:11:00.000-07:00

After it rains at Grandma & Grandpa Sanders all the snails come out and Grandma doesn't like them. So after sunday dinner a few weeks ago the boys went out with Addison to go snail hunting. Kyle would touch them but Addy says their gross! "I don't blame you Addy, they are gross!" Everytime after it rains and the boys are around Grandma is in luck! She can send the Snail Hunters out to save her yard!

She can finally sit on her cute buns:)

2008-08-05T21:05:00.000-07:00

Chloe can now sit up, yay!! She is not the most stable yet but as of today she could even get a little excited and hold her self up a little. She is growing up so fast. It actually just seems like yesterday when we found out we were expecting again. Im so glad that she is here and part of our family. We are so blessed to have her!

Grasshopper rescuers!

2008-08-05T20:27:00.000-07:00

So yesterday this grasshopper decide to make it way into our living room while daycare kids were leaving. Gabe decided he didn't want it there and tried to take a roll of paper towls after it. Tara was over and started yelling at him, telling him to just let her get it out of the house. It's quiet comical sometimes watching them argue. You would think they are siblings, lol:) She picked him up and noticed she got to him too late. He was already missing a leg! After a few minutes of looking at it she put him outside and we all thought that was the last time we would see him!

This morning when all the daycare kids were arriving long and behold our little friend made its way to our front door. He was just sitting there. Everytime we would open or close the door we would make sure we didn't get a leg of his in it. After him just sitting there for 3 hrs that I know of I decided this poor little guy just wanted a place to call home. So I got out the kids butterfly treehouse and put him in it. Kyle, Parker, Otis and Nattie later in the day got him some leafs and grass to make it a little more homely for him! He is now just a part of our family and will always have a home here!!

So here is his happy family all together with him. But little Henry did get a bit of jealousy in him. He picked up the treehouse by the handle and just started shaking it. Susan said to Gabe "He's just trying to finish off what you started!"

The Sanders version of the Cleavland Indians vs. Colorado Rockies

2008-08-05T20:18:00.000-07:00

Kyle and Gabe have so much fun playing baseball in the front yard when Gabe has a day off. Kyle always insists that they each have to pick a team that they want to be and they have to decide who is going to be the home team and who is the away team. The have broke so many woofle balls that we have probably kept them in business this year. Actually lately we haven't even been able to find them in the store! So till the snow decided to make an appearence again we will always be hosting the Indians vs. Rockies right here in our front yard:)

Chloes 1st Night in here own room.....EVER!!

2008-08-05T20:13:00.000-07:00

Okay.....I know!! A little later then it should of been. What can I say. She is my last baby and I had a hard time letting go:( But since I did I get ALOT more sleep:) She usually goes to bed around 8 pm and sleeps clear till 6 am. What a difference! I should of did it sooner but actually I wouldn't change it at all!! She is my last and for being sleep deprived it was all worth it!! I Love You Ms. Chlo Chlo!!

Facebook:(

2008-08-03T19:49:00.001-07:00

So this week I decided to make a facebook profile just cause it seems like people either choose Facebook or myspace, alot of times not both. Somebody please fill me in on the BIG deal with facebook! I just don't get it!! Myspace is basically the same thing but so much more personal and alot more to do on it. If anyone can tell me what the secret is fill me in! I do think for all of you that just use facebook you should really give myspace a chance!! I think it is much better!!

All Because Two People Fell in Love!

2008-08-02T22:14:00.000-07:00

On August 2, 2000 in Grandma Nelsons back yard Gabe and I took our vows to be with each other no matter what. Things haven't alwalys been easy but they have always been worth it. We have experienced many new things together. Being a young married couple isn't always easy and people are judgemental alot of times about it but if I must say so I think we have done better then alot of older married couples:) I Love You Honey and wouldn't change any of it if I could. I can't wait to spend many more years with you!

During our marriage Gabe has served 7 1/2 yrs in the Military. Six years Active duty Airforce when he enlisted December 12, 2000. Just a few months after we got married and a few months before we welcomed our first little boy into the world. Gabe deployed a total of four times. Once to Qatar, once to Iraq and twice to UAE. He also went of many TDY's! In December of 2006 he got out of Active duty and enlisted in the Utah Air National Guard where has has served ever since. Even through all of his time away from our family he has been the greatest father to our children. Our boys think the world of him and I couldn't be happier that I married him. I Love You Honey and will always support you no matter where you are in the world!

We now have three beautiful children. Kyle who was born March 21, 2001, Parker who was born September 12,2003 and our newest and last addition to our family Chloe Marie who was born Febuary 13, 2008!!

Sanders Family trip to YELLOWSTONE!

2008-07-20T21:36:00.000-07:00

Once you have seen one hot pot you have seen them all!
The boys had there Grandpa though so they were fine looking at them!

We took the hike of my life! Maybe it will motivate me to loose some of this baby weight!

Parker and Kyle can find fun in anything though!

The best part of the trip other then time with the family was all of the animal we saw. Tons of Bison and Elk and even 2 Bears!

The waterfall were beautiful!

Thank You Sanders Family for a Wonderful time!!

Family trip to Ohio!

2008-07-07T08:09:00.001-07:00

June 9th- Flying to Ohio!!

The kids and Holly left a few days before Gabe. We had a straight flight there and believe it or not with 3 kids it wasn't so bad flying alone!

June 10th- We were suppose to go explore Longaberger Ohio but Misty got very sick with a bad Migrain. We ended up staying home most of the day visiting with each other and looking for Amber and Darins car keys. Yes the keys were missing for hours. We literly looked everywhere...even the garbage cans!! The Amish rode by in their buggys starring. Darin found them the next morning in a pair of pants

June 11th- Welcome to Berlin Ohio! Yes home of the Amish! I would have to say this is one of my favorite place in this country. It just so beautiful and pure feeling! There is Amish and Mennonites all over. There is a wonderful cheese factory there as well. They have every kind of cheese you can possibly think of.....even chocolate!! They also have a great candy store there with yummy gummy frogs. I bought like 6 bags of them and wish I had more!!

June 12th- Longanberger Ohio! Home of the most wonderful basket made:) We spent the day watching them make baskets, ate a picnic lunch in the park and watching Kyle push back and forth on his loose tooth. He ended up not paying attention to where he was walking and walked right into a table of breakables and broke one. I was so mad at him!! Grandpa ended up taking him to the bathroom and pulled out his tooth. Even know he is missing two front teeth now I was so glad to see him just pay attention to where he was walking now!

We stopped at a Icecream Mill on the way back and had the most wonderful Icecream around!!

June 13th- Cleavland Market

Lake Erie

Go Indians!

We ended up sitting through a 3 hr rain delay. Chloe didn't even get a drop of rain on her. Gabe had her wrapped up!! It was so stressful just sitting there like wet dogs for hrs but we did it. By the time the game started back Gabe, Kyle, Parker, Kody and Darin had 2nd row seats!

June 14th- Long time no see!! Gabe and Scott were in bootcamp together back in Dec 2000-Jan 2001 and 7 1/2 yrs later we all meet up again. Our familys have all grown so much. I was pregnant with Kyle then and they only had there oldest Colynn and she was just in a infant carseat. Now we all have three each...WOW.... how time changes things!! Im so glad that we have managed to stay in contact with them over the years. Gabe and Scott helped each other so much during bootcamp. Im so glad that Gabe had someone like that at such a lonely stressful time!

Later on that day we had a BIG BBQ and a great water balloon volleyball game. We had such a great time! On June 16th we just hung around the house and played outdoor games as well!

June 16th- Columbus Zoo!! It was such a awesome experience going to a different zoo other then the one we have here in Utah. The kids had such a wonderful time with their Aunt Katie. Gabe went with all the guys that day to Ceder Point!! I wish I could of gone but with a nursing baby not such a good idea!

June 17th- Happy Birthday Gabe and Jason! Earlier that day we all went and had family picture done. With 17 of us it wasn't as crazy as you would think!! Later that night we went to Dave & Busters to celebrate Gabes Birthday! Happy Birthday Honey!! I Love You

June 18th- Going Home:( A bitter sweet time. We only get to see my Dad, Misty, Katie and Kody once a yr so it is always hard to leave but it also hard being away from home for that long!

Before I was a Mom!

2008-07-04T17:37:00.000-07:00

I just thought this was so true and wanted to share it with all the Moms out there!

Before I was a Mom:
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom:
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.
Chewed on.
Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom:
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests. Or give shots.
I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up l ate hours at night watching a baby sleep.

Before I was a Mom:
I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom:
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.

Before I was a Mom:
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every
10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

Happy 4th of July!

2008-07-03T21:53:00.000-07:00

Im sorry I haven't posted anything yet about our trip or anything else! We have been busy around here:) We got a sprinkling system in right after we got home from Ohio so I have been working on the yard at night. We also have been getting ready for a Sanders family trip to Yellowstone next week! When I get the time I will post pics and details for them all. Hope you all have a fun and safe 4th of July!! We are all so blessed to live in this wonderful country! Much Love

The Military Wife!!

2008-05-29T22:23:00.000-07:00

The Silent Ranks-I wear no uniforms, no blues or greens. But, I am in the military, in the ranks rarely seen. I have no rank upon my shoulders. Salutes I do not give. But in the military world is where I live and am rarely seen. I am not in the chain of command, orders I do not give or get. But my husband is the one who does, this I can not forget. I am not the one who fires a weapon, Who puts his life on the line. But my job is just as tough, Iâ€™m the one who is always left behind. My husband is a patriot, a brave and pride filled man. And the call to serve his country not all can understand. Behind the lines, I see things needed to keep this country free. My husband makes the sacrifice, but so do my kids and me. I love the man I married. The military is his life. So I pledge to support my hero and stand among the silent ranks known as THE MILITARY WIFE.

Gettin ready for our trip!!

2008-05-29T21:47:00.000-07:00

Well we leave in 10 days for our trip to Ohio. I took the boys to the dollars store today to get each of them 5 things to keep them busy on the plane ride there. They are so excited!! They came home and put it all in their backpacks and asked once again "when are we going?". Im soooooooo sick of that question. I sat down with them and showed them on the calender. I'll probably get the question again in the morning right when they wake up........Thank Goodness it's not that much longer!

The President has landed!!!

2008-05-28T22:08:00.001-07:00

Gabe is at work tonight looking from the camera on the desk with a perfect view of Airforce 1, Lucky him!! I asked him if I could just camp outside of the base to see the president but he said he didn't think that would be the best idea, darn it:( I sent the camera to work with him tonight and told him to take a picture. I'll post it if he does!!

Busy Busy Weekend!!

2008-05-18T21:44:00.000-07:00

Doesn't it seem like some days you have nothing to do and others you have too much to do? Well this weekend was just full of everything! This was Gabes weekend off. On friday he uncovered the swap cooler. This Spring has been so crazy. One day its hot and the next it is freezing. I wish it would just make up its mind!!! He had a Softball Game on friday which I heard the other team was poor sports. Thanks Jeff and Jackie for coming up to play!! On Saturday Gabe started off his day by mowing the lawn while I got all the kids ready for the day. We hit up the case lot sale on the base and got some great deals. Afterwards we had to go and buy another storage shelve for it all. We made our rounds to Home depot and of course Walmart. That night we took the family to the drive in. We saw Iron man which wasn't my favorite but the kids seemed to have a great time, which is all that matters. Sunday we had Kaysons first birthday party down in Salt Lake. Gabe loaded up the grill in the back of his truck to take down to the park. We went by Gabes parents to show them the truck while we were down there. They seemed to like it!! Chloe has been not feeling so well lately. She sleeps all night but is fussy all day. I think she might be teething already. I feel so bad for her. We got some teething tablets to try and they seem to work but I think I might take her into wee care tomorrow just to make sure its nothing besides teething. She has had the runs so bad too!! Poor Chlo Chlo!! Gosh this is Kyles last week of school. I can't believe my little boy is going to be in the 2nd grade soon. Time Flys!! Hope everyone else had a great weekend!! Much Love

Alot has happened lately!!

2008-05-15T09:43:00.001-07:00

Well things have been a little nuts around here lately. Gabe went back to working mids which I hate. My mom had major surgery on Monday and is getting out of the hopsital today (thurseday). She is doing good though!! Gabe got him the truck of his dreams a few weeks ago and loves it! He works so hard, he deserves it!! Kyle is almost done with the 1st grade and is becoming quiet the reader. Im so proud of him!! I just found out that my old daycare kids Natalie, Otis and Henry are moving back so I will have them again. We are all so excited!! The boys have missed them so much this past year. We are getting ready for our trip to Ohio in just 3 weeks. Im flying on the 9th with all the kids and Gabe will follow 3 days later! We are also going to see my brother who is stationed in Charelston South Carolina while we are there. Gabe and I are playing on our Softball team again. One of Ky's friends mom offered to watch the kids during practices and game which helps out alot!! I'll try to write more soon. Chloe is hungry so I better go fill her litle belly!!

Busy Weekend!

2008-04-20T21:59:00.001-07:00

So it is that time of the year again......SPRING CLEANING!! Yup, all weekend long all we did was clean and organize!! Im trying not to put so much stuff in the trash this year to fill up the landfields when maybe, just maybe somebody might actually think my junk is worth wild!! Im selling alot of stuff. I did take advantage of the community dumpster though! I put Gabe and Darin to work with their strong muscles. If anyone is interested in this weight bench or maybe some name brand boy cloths or maternity cloths let me know. I'll sell it for cheap. Im so glad that it is this time of the year again. Saturday we took a break from all our organizing and bbq with Ambers Family. Nice to have a bbq hamburger once again! Gabe went to softball practice on saturday. The wind was so bad so they only stayed for about an hour and a half!! We didn't make it to church today though. Parker was so tired from staying the night at his cousin Kenzis that he naped all afternoon! I did make a good sunday dinner though. Fried Chicken and rice with homemade gravy! I have never made homemade gravy but I decided to try it today and did it!! Gabe loved it! Probably still not as good as his moms but nothing is ever as good as your moms....I tryed though!!

Chloe Marie's Blessing Day!

2008-04-17T21:39:00.000-07:00

I know this is a little late but Miss Chloe was blessed at church on March 30th by her grandfather, Mel Sanders. Most of our family attended and many of our closest friends. The Midwife that delievered her even took time out of his busy schedule to attend. She look so beautiful in the dress that Grandma Sanders (Gabes mom) made her. I felt the spirit so strong!! I know that she is a child of god that he put here on this earth for me to take care of and make sure she grows into the strong women that she will be. I am very blessed to have the gospel in my life. After her blessing we had about 50 people at our house for a luncheon. I made chicken Salad and everyone was so helpful in bringing salads and desserts. Thank You to everyone that came and made the day so special for our little girl!
