:OFF THE MARKET:

MY LITTLE SISTER IS OFFICALLY OFF THE MARKET. CASEY PROPOSED FRIDAY NIGHT AND THEY ARE PLANNING ON GETTING MARRIED ON MARCH 6TH IN THE LOGAN TEMPLE. MCKALL'S RING IS GORGEOUS! IT'S THE VINTAGE STYLE AND SHE LOVES IT. WE ARE ALL SO EXCITED FOR HER AND CASEY, WE REALLY LIKE CASEY ALOT, HE CAME TO THE UINTAHS WITH US CAMPING AND I THINK THAT'S WHEN EVERYONE DECIDED THAT HE WAS A PRETTY COOL KID. SO CONGRATULATIONS MCKALL AND CASEY! AND WELCOME TO THE CRAZY CLAN OF THE CROWTHERS!

I THOUGHT I HAD ANOTHER PICTURE OF THEM, BUT I GUESS I DON'T. I WANTED TO GET A PICTURE WITH THEM LAST NIGHT WITH HER RING BUT OF COURSE I FORGOT MY CAMERA, SO THIS WILL HAVE TO WORK FOR NOW.

:WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?:

Nate and I just celebrated our 5 year anniversary. I guess we really didn't celebrate to much since I did a craft fair all weekend but, we did make it to dinner and did a little shopping while we had a sitter with the kids.

I REALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE TIME AS GONE, MINUS THE BODY FIGURE, THE OLD AGE, THE BALDNESS, AND THE 2 KIDS LATER. IT HAS GONE BY PRETTY FAST. NATE I KNOW MIGHT SAY DIFFERENT J/K. BUT I HAVE LOVED BEING MARRIED TO MY BEST FRIEND AND MAKING FUN FAMILY MEMORIES WITH. NATE IS VERY PATIENT AND PUTS UP WITH ALOT FROM ME. HE IS ALWAYS MAKING ME LAUGH WITH HIS DUMB JOKES, HIS SINGING ABILITY OR WHEN HE IS ABOUT TO JAB A NEEDLE IN MY LEG. HE IS A VERY HARD WORKER AND HE DEF. KNOWS HOW TO PLAY. HE IS A BIG HELPER WHEN IT COMES TO MY CRAFTS, BEING THE PROCRASTINATOR THAT I AM WILL WAIT UNTIL 4 DAYS BEFORE A SHOW TO START MAKING CRAFTS THE HOUSE WILL GET NEGLECTED THE LAUNDRY WILL BE PILING UP AND THE GARAGE WON'T HAVE ROOM FOR HIS CAR TO SLEEP AT NIGHT BUT, HE WILL JUST SMILE AND GO ABOUT HIS BUSINESS. THANKS BABE FOR UNDERSTANDING THE MAD WOMEN THAT I CAN BE AT TIMES.

NATE I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW HOW MUCH WE LOVE YOU AND APPRECATE ALL THAT YOU DO FOR US. AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE YEARS TO COME

:HAPPY BIRTHDAY:

THERE WERE 2 BIRTHDAY CANDLES ON THE BIRTHDAY CAKE THIS YEAR FOR MY LITTLE PRINCESS. I EVEN WAS RUMBUCTOUS AND MADE HER, HER OWN BARBIE DOLL CAKE. YEA I THINK I WILL JUST STICK WITH BUYING THEM FROM NOW ON. TAIGE IS SO INTO BARBIE'S RIGHT NOW SHE LOVED IT, IT DIDN'T BOTHER HER THAT THE DRESS WAS TOO SMALL AND THE FROSTING WAS FALLING DOWN.

WE DECIDED TO TAKE THE KIDS BOWLING SINCE THEY HAD THEIR BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY THE WEEK BEFORE, THEY LOVED IT. IT WAS THEIR FIRST TIME, SO IT WAS KINDA INTERESTING TO SEE THEIR REACTION, TAIGE WAS ALL ABOUT THE BALLS ROLLING OUT AND WANTED IT TO BE HER TURN EVERYTIME. KYSON LOVED WATCHING NATE THROW THE BALL CAUSE IT WOULD GO "FAST" AND HE THOUGHT HE WAS SO BIG CARRYING THE BALL BY HIMSELF.

TAIGES FIRST ROLL SHE GOT A SPARE! WAY TO GO TAY-TAY


KYSON TRIED KICKING THE BALL LIKE IT WAS A SOCCER BALL

TAIGE WOULD GET SO EXCITED AFTER ROLLING THE BALL


AFTER THE FUN WE WENT HOME AND HAD CAKE AND ICE CREAM AND SHE OPEND A COUPLE MORE PRESENTS



MY BABIES ARE NO LONGER BABIES....

BUT, THEY SURE ARE GETTING FUN, KYSON YESTERDAY CAME IN AND GAVE ME A HUG AND SAID,"MOMMY YOUR MY BEST FRIEND!" IT TOTALLY MADE MY DAY! THEN OF COURSE TAIGE IS SO STINKIN SMART SHE HAD TO TRY AND COMPETE WITH KYSON BY SAYING,"MOMMY I WUV WOO" I HAVE THE CUSTEST KIDS AND I LOVE THEM BOTH SO MUCH! THEY MAY TRY AND TEST MY PATIENCE, WHICH THEY ARE VERY GOOD AT BUT, IT IS THE SMALL THINGS THAT MATTER MOST!
HAPPY BIRTDAY TAIGEE BUG WE LOVE YOU!
