Funny Comment!!

Alright, i went on a posting spree today so make sure you read the 3 post today if you have some time to waste:-) So today I was getting Macade ready and we went into the bathroom to do his hair. He is in dire need of a haircut so i could not do my normal spike because it looked really odd with such long hari. So i styled it in a mohawk instead. It was the first time i had done this. When i was all done i told him to look in the mirror at his new style. He turned and smiled and said...

"Am I a dinasour today?"

Ha Ha. I did not even think of that. That it looked like a fin on one of his dinasours. Kids think of the funniest things. I laughed pretty hard at that one. I love this kid. He brings such joy into my life!

First Bites


Ok so i am little behind on this one. About 2 weeks ago, Friday the 12th, Braxton had his first bites of solids. It was fun to feed to him. He struggled of course the first couple times but now he is a pro. He is a very fast learner just like his brother. We love it! I have a video of the big occasion but just did not upload it. Sorry!

"Oooh something new."

"What the heck was that stuff mom?"

"Oh No, not again!!"

Summer Festival

On Saturday we went to the festival at the park. We just went to the Police cars and Fire trucks for Macade and then let him play in the children's play zone! It was fun and Macade had a blast. Something about watching your kids have fun makes you have fun! I love it!

Happy Father's Day

Oh I loved those times when I would sit at home and just wait for that garage door to open and hear your truck rumble on in telling me you're home for the day. The Best!

Oh I remember when we would walk side by side with my arm in yours and you would give mine a little squeeze with that cute smile of yours. The Best!

Oh I remember the times I would sit in the office and listen to you in the shower breaking out in one of your many favorite tunes. The Best!

Oh I remember that smile and bear hug you would give me when I would come home for holidays or just for the heck of it. The Best!

Oh I remember the many times I would tell you how much I love you and with your most sincere and beautiful tone you would repeat those words back. The Best!


Oh how I can not wait to have all of that again! But for now I will just "Oh Remember" cause I am happy I have that!


Happy Father's Day Daddy. I love you. You're The Best!!

Happy Birthday

Today is Cory's birthday. He is slowly creeping toward the year he exits out of his twenties while his beautiful, youthful wife still has quite a few years till she exits her "youth". I asked Macade what he wanted to get Daddy for his birthday and he said balloons! So we went to the party store and he picked out the balloons for daddy all by himself. He was very proud. I told Cory i would make him any cake his little heart desired, his dream cake. Really, any shape, flavor, type, texture, ingredients, anything. You know what he chose...Rainbow chip cake from a box with rainbow chip frosting. I love my simple husband. So here is a shout out to the love of my life....Happy Birthday honey. I love you so much!

Just a Walkin'

We headed out to the water again for a beautiful summer's walk. Macade earns these walks by helping around the house and being a good listener and obeying (all recent FHE lessons). He loves to go and throw the rocks.

Macade and Daddy, He played in the Water, threw rocks and rode his bike! (And no, i am not talking about Cory:-)

Braxton and Mommy enjoying life!

We've got another one who loves being outside. He loved dangling his feet in the water!

Daddy's Funeral

So I said that I would post pictures of my Daddy's funeral. It was a difficult day to get through, as you can imagine, but really a beautiful one. David and Trent both spoke followed by Jeff and Kris Page singing "Consider the Lilies". Then it was closed by Uncle Doug, Daddy's brother. It was a wonderful tribute for my Father!!
The Pallbearers were honored to carry my Father to his final resting place in Salt Lake City Cemetary. They included some of my Dad's dearest friends: Barrie Brewer and Steve Kambell. Of course my brothers: David Wright & Trenton Wright. My husband and brother-in-law: Cory Ross & Mark Morrell and my Dad's brother and brother-in-law: Doug Wright & Kirk Mackert. What a sight to see!

A Week Away

A Memorial Service was held in my Daddy's honor on Tuesday, May 19 in Clayton CA. It was a beautiful service. On Wednesday we drove up to Utah where his final resting place would be and had his final Funeral with Family and and dear friends of his. (Pictures to come). After the Funeral we headed up to our dear friends Kathy Kay and Barrie's cabin in utah just to get away and be together as a family and try to recover from our loss. It was a wonderful time together!

Jonathan Carl Wright

It pains me to write this post. My family and I have tried to prepare for this day for a long time now. My Father was diagnosed with terminal Liver Cancer on August 3, 2007. They gave him 3 months to live. 21 months, an incredible fight, and amazing faith Jonathan Carl Wright passed away on Sunday, May 17, 2009 at 8:48 pm.

So to my Daddy. He will be deeply missed. I love him always and forever.

To an amazing Husband, Father, Brother, Son, Grandfather, and one of my BEST friends.

Bringing Humor

Macade is always bringing humor to my life which makes it worth getting up in the Morning! The other day he grabbed a blanket, pillow and a play phone. You know, the ones with the cord and the spinning dile? Well, he layed on the fireplace and called it the doctor's bed.

Macade: Mamma i am waiting for the Doctor.

Me: Really, why are you at the doctor?

Macade: I have to get checked.

Me: Oh well i hope that you are ok!

Macade: Me too

He then proceeds to pull up his shirt, go get lotion to put on his belly, and place the ear piece of the phone on his belly. He starts to move it around his tummy.

Macade: The doctor says everything looks really good.

Me: Oh, why is he looking at your tummy?

Macade: He was checking the baby inside and taking pictures!!!!

Me: (Just a burst of Laughter)

It is very funny to me that he came to enough doctor's appointments with me while i was pregnant with Braxton that he knows about the Ultrasound and the Doppler (the instrument that you hear the heart beat). He knew to put "gel" on and all. WAY too funny!!!
