So I haven't written for a while. Things have been really great lately. I got a job at Mcdonalds, I hate the fact that it's fast food and I applied at about 6 other places but only one called back so I take what I can get. Sean got another blue jacket of the month award and nominated for blue jacket of the quarter. He's doing so well and I'm so proud of him! He went to a Seahwaks game last week with one of this friends and had an absolute blast. I'm glad he got to experience that.
Kamela is doing wonderfully. She was sick a couple weeks ago and was diagnoised with croup and pnemonia. She was taken to the emergency room twice in one week and wasn't getting any better and her antibiotics weren't working so she was given a blessing from my visting teacher's husbands. It was wonderful to be there and experience that amazing power. She was fully recovered about 3 days later.
Halloween was lots of fun. Kamela had a chicken costume that she got from Sean's grandma but she refused to wear it so we took her to the trunk or treat that our ward put on. It was at my visiting teacher's house. They had a barn decorated like a haunted house and all the cars were parked along their yard. Then we came home a handed out candy and watched the movie frequency. I love halloween because that means that it's only about 1 month till Christmas! Sean and I are really excited this year and we're trying to do everything beforehand so we're not overwhelmed when December comes. We went to the dollar store 2 days ago and got everything we needed for Christmas, Decorations, Chritmas cards, and stocking stuffers. Our Christmas tree is up and our whole house is decorated. It's very comforting and homey. I love it! I took pictures that I would love to post but I lost the usb cord to my camera so I can't download pictures till I find that. Well that's about everything new. We love and miss you all.

Potty training

So for the last 3 days we've been trying to potty train Kamela and she's doing so good! It makes me excited! The first day she would sit on her potty and then when she felt like she had to go she'd stand up and pee on the bathroom floor. we'd clean it up together and then I explained to her that we had to go potty in the toilet not on the floor. Well now she seems to be getting the hang of it, I don't have pull ups or underware yet so she just goes without a diaper throughout the day and I ask her about every 10 minutes if she has to go potty if she does she'll run to the bathroom and sit on her toilet and go. It's Saturday, she's been without a diaper for about 4 hours and only one accident so far. I'm so excited! I know she'll probablly have lots of accidents and it will get frustrating but right now I'm just excited and proud!


Kamela's 2nd Birthday

Our wonderful bundle of joy turned 2 years old on August 9th. It's crazy how fast she's growing up. She's learning new things everyday that just amaze me. Her favorite new thing to say is "I'm hungry" and it's the cutest thing I've ever heard! Well we had a little birthday party for her. She had a Dora the Explorer cake with cookie dough ice cream which she very much enjoyed. She got some fun bath toys, a pink "my little pony",a stroller with a stuffed puppy dog that she loves to push around and a singing dog which is just adorable. here's a few pictures

Kamela's birthday party

Kamela turns 2 on August 9th. While we were in Idaho my parents decided to have a little party for her since they won't be here for her birthday. We had cake and ice cream and she opened a present. It was fun and she's excited that she gets to have 2 cakes this year!




The Dark Knight

So the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight came out on Friday the 18th. We went to midnight premire the day before. Sean had been dying to see this movie for 2 years. He was so excited that him and his friend Zach decided to dress up as the joker. They looked so good and had lots of fun. It's an awesome movie bytheway if you get a chance it's definently worth your time.





camping with the family

We went camping at Rigby lake with Jason and his family and Travis and Jenny. Sean and I just went up for the day but we had a blast swimming and roasting marshmallows. Kamela and Caylin had so much fun playing together, Dad made some delicious bbq chicken, Mom and I made smores, and I got a picture of Jason with his shirt off. He said I was lucky because most people don't get to see that for free.









Lagoon

So i'm the biggest slacker ever when it comes to blogging but we just back from our Idaho vacation yesterday and I have tons of cute pictures that I need to share. We were there for about 3 weeks. We had a lot of fun and did a lot of activities with friends and family.
The first weekend we were there Sean and I with our friends Zach and Amber went to Lagoon. Sean and I were feeling daring so we went on the skycoaster which is a ride where you're strapped into a harness and you're brought up about 250 feet in the air then someone has to pull the rip cord and you free fall for about 100 feet and then the rope catches you and you just fly accross the park. here's a few pictures
