Spring Break, Road Trips...Friends & Family

I don't have any pictures that goes to show...but we have had a great couple of weekends! Adam had spring break 2 weeks ago, he had started a second job that week and I still had to work, so on Thursday we decided that since it was his springs break we should do something fun that weekend. So we decided to go to Utah, and we had SO much fun! The first night we stayed with some of our best friends from college Beth & Eric, it was so much fun to see them again! We just stayed up all night and talked...and caught up. It's been a while since we've seen them. It's always a good time with the Farmers! Then Saturday night we spent the night with Mary and Brian...and we always have so much fun together. We of course watched March Madness all day, and that night Adam got together with a few of his friends to watch the BYU game and me and Mary went shopping...and loved every second of it. I'm not sure if I've mention it before--but my favorite store is Plato's Closet--it's the greatest store ever created. It's pretty much a DI, but they only take name brand, nice clothes, they can only be so old, and have to be in great shape. But they are great prices, and have the greatest stuff. But I think my favorite thing that I got was a new dvd player...it's called CLEAR PLAY. And it's the greatest invention! It's an editor...but to the max. It edits everything, nudity, sex, language, violence, even dishonoring your parents--the flag, whatever you want. And you can set it to whatever level you want. I've been wanting one FOREVER! So i'm so glad I finally got one. You can check them out here. We had such a fun time! It was sad to leave everyone.

Then this weekend, we just got back from spending the weekend in Rexburg. And as always, we had a great time there also. We spent the night with John and Meagan, and had a blast. We again, watched basketball, March Madness & went to the school championship. We just love basketball! It was fun to see our little neice Kaylee too! She's SO dang cute and fun! And then I got to see my other sisters and hold my new niece again...she's such a pretty baby! And once again...it was a fun weekend, and we wish we could've stayed longer. We are so blessed with all of our friends and family! We just love them all!

Birthday Weekend

We had a birthday party a couple of weeks ago for Grandma Fennell. We had all of the local Rupert area family who could make it go over to my parents for a dinner for my Grandma. We order in the best Chinese food from Shan Hings, and had a grand ol' time! And then the next day was my parents birthday, and Mel came home for the weekend, so us Mel and Dave made dinner for my parents and enjoyed the evening with them. It was a good time.

Pretty in Pink

This weekend we made a quick trip to see the newest member of the fam...Aubrey Nielson. She is such a PRETTY baby! She was born on Thursday and weighed 6 lb 10 oz. I thought I would post pictures on here--for one because there is some family that won't be able to see her for a while. She is just tiny and adorable! New babies are always so much fun!





Proud Aunts!

Super Bowl

For super bowl weekend we went to Washington for our nephew's baby blessing. It was a short trip but we had a lot of fun. We stayed at Adam's brother Jared's house,his mom was able to come too. When we first got there we went to a couple pawn shops...and it was amazing! They just had a wall full of movies in each one, and they were 50% off...which they're normally 2 or 3 dollars each. So we ended up getting 15 new movies for about $15. We thought it was a great deal. We got some good ones too like the bourne and x-men trillogies. Later on we went to the YMCA and enjoyed a few hours at the pool. And then Sunday after church we had a great super party. Jared was a great host for it, so we decided we'll probably spend every super bowl with him and his family. There was a TON of great food...good company...crappy game! We are big colt's fans...so needless to say we were a little bummed after the game. But we were glad we were able to go! Here is our new nephew, he's got a head full of hair! (it's impossible to get a picture of me with my eyes open) Here's a picture before the game....
And After...

Good Times

Well to bring everyone up to speed since I haven't posted about it yet, Adam has been working with the school district the past month and a half, he works at the alternative school as a behavior tech, and I believe he is enjoying it, although some of the kids are a HAND FULL! But he's really good with them. Anways...the past 3 months I have been trying to find a job, and it's funny that once ya get to the breaking point it all works out. Today I've heard back from 4 of the companies...so in one day I went from nothing to have 4 options! So now I just have to make a decision, so it's a good day. Also I thought I would share with everyone, my sister has been coupon shopping for a bout a year now and has saved tons of money, so she's teaching me now. But she found a site thats bountifulbaskets.org you pay $16 a week and get a huge box full of fruits and veggies, you just order it every tuesday and pick it up on saturday, they have pick up places all over utah, and in idaho I know they have it in Idaho Falls, Poky and Rigby....and this is what I got this week....

I was SO excited! It's a GREAT deal!
