Theoblast the Blasters themsleves

We had such a great time with all the Theobald's this past week, here are a few highlights of the trip, besides running out of crazy expensive restaurants, and besides trying to sneak a baby in a bar, here were the good times!

Cheetos gone wild

Cheetos just came out with a recall on the huge puffs. It makes children drunken and begin to fight by pulling hairs of the last cheeto-in-the-bag-eater!

I can see clearly now the rain has gone

MORE GOOD NEWS!! TY GOT THE TEACHING POSITION HE HAS BEEN DROOLING OVER!!!! Hoooooray! I am so excited, elated, thankful, happy and stoked for Ty to FINALLY after all these years really pursue something he is BRILLIANT at and will enjoy! Heavenly Father really REALLY blessed us, and I have felt the tender prayers that I know my brothers and sisters and parents, friends and other loved ones have said on our behalf. Thank you thank you thank you. It makes me teary eyed when I think about how much humbling we've had this last year and how the Lord works. Although this position is only part time, we're hoping eventually a full time position will open up, and at that point we can get benefits and the school will pay for Ty's licensure, which good old UVU said getting that lisencsure would take almost another two years of school. REALLY? If he went back to school it would be for a Masters for crying out loud! Anyway, things have been put in our path and I can't wait to see what life holds for us. HOOPLAAAH!

Ode to my hubbin

Ty had his first sale!!!!!! legacyensigns.com is a business that he has been doing on the side for a while. We went to our BFJ family reunion this last little while and had a display there...which led to the blessed first sale!!! Ty has had a hard time this last year and it's hard for him to celebrate his victories unless its a HUGE payout. I say nay, nay, come now, roll in the small mud puddles before you go jumping in the large mud pie. Ty I love you and can't wait until you can see what I do in you. Life is hard for a large percentage of our lives and I know it can be a beast, but keep truckin. I love you my best freaking friend!

Rantings of nonsense.

So, it's almost been a month since I posted, I guess I didn't know if anyone read this anyway, well none the less, doesn't matter, it's a good way to just barf out what you think and not have to clean up your spew! Nix is turning one. One year old. I can't believe it. I am a momma of a year old little guy. I keep saying although I haven't left him a whole day, I feel like I missed it. He grew too fast, I guess I just didn't realize how fast they go through the stages of cooing, finding their voices, their teeth and their feet and arms. So sadly I am missing the time that has flown by, but I do love the new things he does. He tries to ride the vacuum, tries to use anything as a drum stick, claps for joy when I get him from a nap, and pounces on toys and the carpet when he chases you. He is such a great little "Mr. Maaaan" as I call him and I am so blessed to have him. I am glad that Nix has had the examples of his cousins to play with so he doesn't always have that "only child" funk, but I don't know, Ty only wants two kids, and I feel like I would miss the next kids phases as well, and then what? I don't know. This past year has been EASILY the worst/hardest year for us. I know that sounds so bad because this should have been the best year with Nix coming to our family, but with all the craziness that I had when we brought home nix and the months after that, and with Ty and his kidney stone surgery, and the bills that came with it, with no job, and the depression that it brings for everyone involved. Man, I don't know, I guess it just seems like life would be different than it is now. So here's to all those who know how crappy some days are when you realize what life is like sometimes. I will feel better about it tomorrow I am sure.
