Suprise!

I received this from my sister in law and so I am now passing this on to all my lucky viewers!

So here's how it works:The first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive a gift from me during this year. When and what will be a surprise. There's a small catch though...Post this same thing on your own blog and then come back and leave a comment telling me you're in. Fun, huh? Remember, only the first 3 comments receive the gift!

Great Savings

So,I have been introuduced to the world of coupons. I have to tell you, I was a little hesitant. At times it seems too good to be true. I have figured out though with a little planning and organizing, saving tons of money is easy! Click on, krazy coupon lady, off my list of friends. She walks you through all the great deals she finds and lets you in on great deals all day long. You have to check it often, she posts new things all the time and sometimes there are a limited number. I tried out the trip to Albertson's post and I saved tons of money. I made two trips, paid $7.00 and got about $40.00 worth of food! Today she has posted how to get a free sub coupon sent to your email. It took me twenty seconds to fill out. No catches. You only have to use it within five days! I had one sent to Trevors email and mine. Now we have dinner one night! I t I thought I would pass it on to everyone!

One year ago

On Febuary 17th, one year ago, Trev proposed! I really didn't think that a year later we would remember the day that it happened! To be honest,we did have to put a little thought into it! We decided to try a new restaurant. Tucanos has come to town. We have heard good things so we decided to try it out! It was fun! Caleb and Kim Joined us for a night out. I am glad they did. We were there for so long it was nice to have the extra company. They have salad bar type of deal,which has quite the selection. They bring out all types of yummy meats, veggies, and brown sugar glazed pineapple, which Kim loved! I liked that we got to go out and experience something a little different. Mostly, I can't believe that a year has flown by! Makes me realize how fast time does go by, and that I need to treasure each day. I think the only thing that has changed is we have a little, maybe a lotmore fat on us:) One year down, many more to go. Thanks for a great year Trev, and all the things you do for us! We love you!

SORRY

As you can probably tell, my computer is being a big peice of junk. It is having too many problems to list. So my punctuation, and grammer is a bit worse than it normally is:) It is leaving out words, mixing them up, not saving everything I type, not posting pictures the way it should. I thought I would just let everyone know. It's not at all pleasant to read and try and figure out what it is that I am trying to say! It is chaotic and not organized at all! SORRY! So bare with me while I try and keep you updated with the computer I have. Thanks

VALENTINE'S DAY

I have never really been into valentine's day. It is easy to get away from showing that you appreciate the one you love so, I guess it is nice to have a day that you can take the time to make sure that that special someone knows how you feel. This year was our first valentine's as a married couple. I decided I didn't want to go out. Too busy. Too expensive. Plus, I wanted the kids to be with us. I just made dinner and we had a relaxing night. I made stuffed crab, parmesean pork, veggie, potatoes and stawberry shortcake for dessert. I rented Fireproof. It ended up being a good movie. Trevor has been asking for a coffee mug. So, earlier in the week the kids and I set out to make him one. So now daddy has a coffee mug with the all of our pictues on it to take to school and class. Jaydon picked him out a candy bar and a nice card. Aunty Karen joined us for dinner. She does so much for us I thought it would be nice to give something back. I got to use ALL four of my nice dishes so that was a plus:) Jaydon enjoyed helping me decorate and set the table. Three wine glasses and a juice box completed our dinner table. Hope everyone had a nice valentine's day!

SHOW TIME

Trevor and I try to spend one on one time with the kids. Last week, Trev took Jaydon to dinner. They enjoyed small talk over happy meals. Kaylani and I enjoy getting the boys out of the house thats for sure! For an hours time, we have peace and quiet! This week I decided to take Jaydon to see a movie. I was worried he would'nt be able to sit still for that long. I was suprised! My friend Mandi and her daughter Kenli joined us. They pigged out on popcorn and enjoyed watching a movie on the big screen. We had a fantasic time. I try to get the kids out of the house when possible. On Tuesdays, Mcdonalds has half priced happy meals. The movie was at the cheap theater so it never breaks the bank and we still get out for some fun! Trev took some picutes of us before the big show! If you want to go watch a show, yell SHOW!!!!

Uh-Oh

Our computer has been running extrmely slow, freezing in the middle of whatever I am doing, and not posting my pictures! Sounds similar to a few months back when our computer had a virus on it. With that said, lets hope that that isn't the case. Here are the picutes that were supposed to be with the cabin post.

THE CABIN

This last weekend we headed up to the cabin. First stop was to see the ice sculputres. Sadly, some were already begining to melt. The ones that were still holding strong were amazing! We walked around for a bit, ate dinner with the rest of the Barkers, and watched the fireworks. Saturday night Kaylani and I got sick. So we stayed indoors on Sunday. While I sat inside feeling sorry for myself, everyone else went out sleeding! Sad that I missed it. Maybe next year. Jaydon didn't like the snow much that day. He is a bit of a little girl when it comes to anything being on his hands. So I guess the cold snow just rubbed him the wrong way. We always enjoy spending time with the rest of the family. Here are some picutes of us all bundled up. Buurrr.
