Moving Forward

First i just wanted to say how grateful I am for my husband. A friend told me that we need to honor our husbands because when the kids grow up and move out, he's still going to be there and be one of the most important people in your life. I really took that to heart and thinking back on our relationship, me and him have been through alot of hardships and have faced tough adversary. Sometimes people you trust or love will do you wrong, but Jake told me its all part of being on earth and the life test. Those people will have to face what they have done but we get judged on how we react and grow from the experience. It seems lately that the adversary has been targeting our family hard, just stuff after stuff. But i've also noticed that with each thing that we deal with, me and Jake become closer and we grow as a couple. Me and him are in it for the long haul, and its a journey that we've just begun and i cant wait for the rest. Among other things my parents got back together!! After being divorced and apart for the summer i think they both realized how much they needed each other and how stupid they were being! But there together again and very happy. After coming back from the fair, jake started building up a crew and we ran our own team down in st. george and we got so close to getting into a house and literally like the day before we were gonna put the money down he got a promotion and new opportunity.....in Pocatello Idaho.....the last place on earth i would have ever wanted to live but we prayed about it and decided to do it! Jake got to hang out with his friends steele and cord while i hung out with my girls the night before we left. It was alot of fun and we decided were coming back for like every holiday! So were up here now and we just found the cutest house, were moving in today when jake gets off work! Its in a new, nice, mormon area and right by all the shopping areas! I feel me and jake have been blessed and we love our Heavenly Father and all of our family and friends for all the support and help they have given us! Zoe is a couple days away from being 5 months old and she is as cute as ever! she's almost mobile too which is making me nervous! she can roll over and scoot and squirm so not very much longer and she'll be crawling all over! but i've got tons of pictures of Zoe and swimming with the family and me and my friends so enjoy the pictures!!

California State Fair!

So after a long 14 hour drive to Sacramento we got to our hotel and slept!! Then it was off to the fair, which became a very hot and tiring issue. They had us working from 10 in the morning when the fair opens to 10 and night when the fair closed, and it was over 95 degrees all day long every day! and we were in the the trailer so it was like an oven, i kept zoe in front of the fan all day so she got to stay cool. lucky her. and then me and jake teamed up and kicked everyones butts! we came a couple days later then everyone else and by the end of the week jake had more sales than the top rep there who had been selling for seven years! He's awesome! This first picture is of Zoe of course, she had ahold of a dishnetwork pen! everyone that came into the trailer apsolutely loved her! :D my little cutie!

Right out side of our trailer there was this really pretty lake with fountains and stuff....very pretty...



This is the Dishnetwork Trailer!! ow OW!



haha and this would be jake being himself


Zoe was awesome through the whole thing, she just slept and chilled....

At the end of each day they would set off firework, not a great picture but you get the idea

One of the days i was walking back from the other Dish booth and these Jamaicans were performing the limbo and this guy was AMAZING! they kept lowering the bar till it was like a foot off the ground and he went under it!!!!!
This picture is out of order, it should have been the first picture but i got lazy. anyways on our way to California we passed this area with thousands of little windmills! and jake for some reason thought it was so cool....so im posting this picture for him.

Me and Zoe decided to go on the monorail (benefit of working at the fair, you get free ride tickets!) She loved it! There was so much to see that her head was going back and forth and her eyes were all wide! so cute!

The trailer from the monorail

Jake in the red shirt trying to sell some old lady! hah


Me and my zozo

On my way to the bathroom i saw these two girls doing a dance with fire sticks, and they were flipping in front of there faces and stuff, it was crazy!

lol She had an accident....

This would be anthony trying to be a studd attaching dishnetwork key rings to his ears....


This would be the band TONIC! we got V.I.P passes to the dinner and concert buffet two nights in a row.....it was sweet

I thought this was pretty, it was outside the concert area,...


Jake TRYING to look like a retard

HAHAHA! Jake caught his pants on the chair somehow!? and ripped his pants lol
hilarious

My baby girl

Back at the hotel, jake put her in the suit case and she thought it was so cool



Just more pictures of my baby :)




Terry gave her this bouncer and she loves it! it has bubbles that come up and it plays music and vibrates and flashes colors, it kept her entertained for hours




She can lift her head up so high now! first time i saw it and had to take a picture!


Precious.
She was very tired after the long days.


lol and jake balancing her on his hand while we were packing up!

So our trip ended early cause after the owner of the company left, he left this retard to manage things and i have never met a more rude person than this man. he was like bi-polar, negative, retarded and we decided we had enough of it and wanted to come home! So now were back home and will probably be here for good till next summer!
