rain rain go away

Normally i love the rain. there is nothing better than a good rain storm, as long as thunder and lightning come with it. its raining today, but its a typical rain storm for idaho, just wet with no lightning or thunder. and i am sick of cold wet weather. bring on the sun! our forcast this morning said the next few days we could get snow, again. this picture i posted was this last weekend, easter weekend. granted, it was going through the canyon but people are still snowmobiling up there, and we saw several people coming and going as we drove. stupid snow.

well as for other news, joey had his birthday on easter. we got him a scooter so he could play with the neighboor boy who has one. he loves it. korys mom got him a flag for his bike so that he would stop putting her american flags from her flower pots on the back of his bike, and she got him a baseball set, but its made for kids, the mit and ball have velcro on them so you can catch it easier. and the bat is padded a little, to help avoid the injuries that im sure i would have from him sneaking up on me. from one of his aunts he got a chevron car. if you dont know what it is, cause i didnt used to, they are special brand of car that chevron puts out, like on their comercial. he didnt get a ton for his birthday, but it also being easter, he got all the normal easter stuff too.

i have decided to sell scentsy. its the one product i see myself selling and actually being really excited about what it is and doing well at it. im siging up under margo, my friend/cousins wife. i have considered other things before and was getting pretty serious about signing up but this one is one i can actually well, get excited about. i love candles and anything that smells good. if anyone has any questions feel free to ask me.

March 2009

Our season for shows and fairs is starting up. we set up our directv booth at different events, and this last weekend we had our first for the year. It was the Cache Valley Home and Garden show. I love doing shows, its always fun to see what the other vendors have.

Joey is still loving pre-school. and his speech class is making a difference.

Alyssa is our little princess. only she says "fa-fa". i dont really know how she got that from princess, but whatever... Her favorite princess is Ariel. or as she would put it "ariel-iel, fa-fa ermaid". she can say her m's but always leaves it off the front of mermaid.

well nothing is ever new with us and i have no complaints about anything. and that is always good. I am glad that the snow is gone, im looking forward to my birthday on friday and twilight comes out on dvd on the 21st. i havnt seen it yet. well thats it for now. maybe i will remember to keep this running. :)

halloween, late

well here are our costumes, Joey was a star trek guy, which his uncle brenden nicknamed "joey laforge" in alyssa's pic you can see her ready to do some sort of flip off the trike. the bottom one is of me and alyssa all decked out in our cheerleader uniforms which we found at DI. just so everyone knows, i was never a cheerleader in my life. but thats what halloween is about right? dressing up as something you are not. but we both look really cute. alyssa is even wearing eyeshadow. i tried to give her lipstick but she only wanted to lick it off.

so our halloween was fun. im now ready to get thanksgiving over with and move on the Christmas! yay! thats my favorite holliday ever. this week we are gettng our float ready for the festival of lights parade in preston. everyone should come and watch from our store. we are passing out glow braclets to people. my idea cause i thought it would be fun with it being a lighted parade and all. we are accepting volenteers too, anyone who wants to help walk the parade route and pass out flyers. buffy and her husband are coming in town for thanksgiving and have agreed to help. im so excited for her to visit again so soon.

my book will be done soon, its the family photo album of the tippets family. i want to have it done by thanksgiving so family can get their copy by christmas. thats the goal. i could be done now but im missing pics from a few families still. well they have one more week and then im finishing... im sure it will work out the way ive hoped.

buff's wedding

well congratulations to buffy! she got married saturday. she is the last one of the group of cousins i hung out with regularly. enjoy the photos :) ive been pasting them everywhere, she's gonna be famous by the time im done... lol.

im glad she found fielding. they are lucky to have each other. does anyone else think he looks like the guy from the movie "Singles Ward"?

hmmm.....

ok, this blog spot is irritating, this is try #3. to make this short, back from omaha, dan came with for a week and flys back tomorrow. snow this weekend, that sucks.

well we are back from our trip to omaha. these are a few pics of the many. the one with grandpa, obviously not in omaha. dan came back with us for a week. anyway, we went to the zoo and to the river city roundup. we had alot of fun but we are glad to be back. but its too bad that we are getting snow in a few days. i hate the snow. maybe i should move to san diego with buffy. but i dont think kory would want to go, so i guess im stuck in the mountains. :)

in omaha

we are in omaha! its been fun but busy! we are working two shows while we are here, the home and garden expo and the river city roundup.
we miss our family back in idaho, especially with everything going on... we wish we were there to be supportive.
well talk to everyone later.
