3 AmAzInG YeArS!*




I cannot believe another year has gone by! 3 years ago today was the best day of our lives! Its so crazy for me to look back at the years and to think of the memories that we had. I never thought I could love Jake as much as I did on our wedding day but I have only continued to love him so much more. I always like to look at the clock on our anniversary and to think about what I was doin at the certain time of day. I wish I could have had a videographer from the moment I woke up and Jake and just taping the whole day and our conversations. Everyday I wish I could get married again. I definetly married my best friend. I feel so blessed to have Jake be my husband.. he is seriously my SOUL MATE.... my BETTER HALF!! I am so glad that we have had 3 years ( well 2 years living together) behind us before our little baby arrives. As much as I wanted a baby the moment that we could have babies I am so glad that we have those years together just me and him. He is such a big help to me especially now that I have been sick. He cleans the house, does laundry, makes me dinner.. and cleans up afterwards. He also does many, many of favors for me. I really do not deserve him... sometimes I kid around with him sayin that he needs to find a new wife.. one that deserves him! I could write a million zillion words on why I love him and why he is so good to me. I definetly got the better end of the deal:) I am so proud of him and the man that he has become and for how hard he works at school, his calling, job, and me:)
My dad just recently burned a dvd for me of our wedding day and what he captured. I can't wait to watch it tonight. I would love to go on a big trip this year especially with the baby coming but we just doing simple this year and thats ok to. As long as I get to spend time with him thats all that matters ( I will be so glad when he is not in school anymore and finals won't get in the way) . I love you HUSBAND and I truly am so blessed to have you in my everday life! I cannot wait for this new journey we are about to begin but I can' think of anyone else I would rather experience that with. You are my everything! I loveR you:)

This is my new favorite "JAKE SONG"
Keith Urban- Only you can love me this way:)

Well, I know there’s a reason
And I know there’s a rhyme
We were meant to be together
And that’s why

We can roll with the punches
We can stroll hand in hand
And when I say it’s forever
You understand

That you’re always in my heart
You’re always on my mind
But when it comes too much
You’re never far behind

And there’s no one
That comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only you can love me this way

I could have turned a different corner
I could have gone another place
Then I’d of never had this feeling
That I feel today, yeah

And you’re always in my heart
And you’re always on my mind
But when it comes too much
You’re never far behind

And there’s no one
That comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only you can love me this way
Ooh
And you’re always in my heart
And you’re always on my mind
But when it comes too much
You’re never far behind
And there’s no one
That comes close to you
Could ever take your place
‘Cause only you can love me this way
Ooh

Only you can love me this way

CoMiNg SoOn!!*

Whats coming soon you ask?? A BABY!!! yay i'm SO GLAD I don't have to keep that in anymore:) The little person will be here in November! Jake and I are so excited!! We tried for a year and now my ego is prego...... I am 10 weeks and am in and out with the sickness. It will all be worth it though for a healthy baby:) It was so fun tellin our families.
With the Dyrengs we told them over Easter (everyone was home and I was so glad) It was after dinner and Jake told them he had to take a picture for one of his projects at school. So I of course had to get a video of it while he was taking pics then he was like "k on the count of 3 say.. NATS PREGNANT!" it was so so fun and I think Jennie's face is my very favorite in the 2 nd picture...
With the Blads my family ( just the 4 of them) were in St George at a softball tournament and I wanted them to stop by on there way through. They were all tired and thought it was a little funny that they wanted me to have them stop by just for a little Easter treat. Well it came 10 pm and they stopped in Cedar. So we gave them a 2 litttle bags full of Easter candy ( 1 bag was pink choclates and the other was full of blue choclates- still didn't catch on) Jake found a card that had a picture of a snake on the front and it had eaten the easter bunny. The card on the inside said "looks like the easter bunny will be late this year........ but he isn't the only one who is late!" haha and as you see in the video they didn't get it at first.. it was a little late for my fam. There pretty much early to bedders.. haha but then after they got it I loved it!! It was so funny cause I hung out with my mom that whole day and she asked me "who the next person in the family to have a baby would be" I had to be so so strong but I was just like I don't know.. then I was like well we have been tryin for a year so.. haha anyways it was so fun!!
I am goin to tell my drill team girls on thursday and I'm so excited they are goin to die.. They seriously ask me everyday of my life when I'm having a baby!! I can't wait!! Thank you LIV SXINNEY!!!

p.s. sorry for the underlining stuff I have no idea how to get rid of it and I already looked in the fonts and that little underline tool.. kinda weird!!

For Christmas Diane and Allen suprised me and the kids (I say that cause everyone thought I knew but I didn't.. hehe which I was just as excited) with a trip to DISNEYLAND!! Who doesn't love the happiest place on earth.. I was so excited as were the kids! A fun family trip where everybody would be goin. I was so excited to go with the kids cause I haven't been there with kids since my little sisters were little so probably 10 years! We had so much fun and it was so much fun to see what the kids thought. We stayed right across the street from Disneyland so it was so nice after a long, fun day to just walk across the street to our hotel. I wish we could have stayed for a YEAR!! ok maybe not that long but we all had so much fun. Thank you Allen and Diane so much! It will be so fun to look back at the memories and i'm sure the kids will remember it their whole lives!! Love you:)

Grandpa Blad:)













Couple weeks ago Jake and I and Jared, Shannon, and cutest
Brogen went home to Kanosh to visit gramps. Seriously my
grandpa is the ULTIMATE!! I have been so blessed to grow
up livin blocks away from him gettin to see him at every birthday
party, ball games, family nights up the canyon, football game
parties at my house and just around town. My grandpa Carl Blad
is 92 (possibly 93) He is now living at the hospital which
my dad works there so he gets to check on him everyday.
My grandpa is not doinso good so thats why we made a special trip
up there and Jared and Shannon wanted to get a 4 generation
picture (isn't it so cute). That day was so hard for me. I didn't know
if that would be my last day seeing him. Thats always so hard when
your family gets older you just never know when that will be the
last time you see them. We kept puttin it off and puttin it off of goin
to visit him but my mom was like "nat you might not have even a
couple days" and granted that was like 3 weeks ago but ya just never
know what to expect. I know it meant so much to my grandpa that
we came up to see him. Grandpa had never seen Brogen before and he
was just lovin him. The whole time we were there I just kept staring
at him and thinkin back on all the memories I have had with him.
He is one of the greatest men I know coming from the bottom of my heart.
I just could not fight back the tears and I let them flow. When I hugged
him goodbye I kissed him and told him I loved him and in his little
soft voice he said I love you to hunny...... and he paused...... the
mostest....... ahhhhhh oh my gosh I lost it after that. That meant so
much to me!! I love him so much and of course when he passes on it
will be so sad but I'm so excited for him to be with my grandma again
( she died in 1995). What an awesome reunion that will be... I love
you Grandpa Blad!!!

NEW OBSESSION!!!

So I have recently started doin Liv Sxinny and I am IN LOVE!! Since this is my journal I am goin to write about my success and why I love it. I think it will be so great to look back on this so if you don't want to read on then goodbye:)

So I started this product 2 weeks ago tomorrow ( Fri Feb 26) and I honestly have not felt this great in awhile. I was a little skeptical starting this anyways cause I have already tried something similiar to this and I hate to even say there similiar cause there TOTALLY different but I work with a girl who got into 8 months ago. When she first started everyone at my salon was kinda teasing Tiff and being like hey tiff.. are you "livin"? We pretty much have teased her since she started doin it but she would just kinda laugh it off. Each time she would come down ( she does nails and lives in Salt Lake and comes down every 3 weeks) I would ask her a little about it each time and every thing I asked her just seemed to good to be true. I kept just telling myself that it was another one of "those drinks" thats suppose to be good for you and can make you easy money FAST! I can honestly say that IT WORKS!! The maker of it his name is Jeff Tuttle and he is from Orem. He worked on this product for 26 years. He is a freakin genius and I can't wait to meet him. Now its not a weight loss product but so many people have lost weight on it cause it detoxs you everyday. The thing I love about it is its water and completely natural! They have 5 other amazing products as well..(don't even get me started on those) I will save that for another post. I haven't weighed myself yet but I feel leaner and maybe like 2 pounds but I don't know.. I have had so much more energy which people don't think that I need more but with drill team early in the morning and then being on my feet all day doin hair I am wasted by the end of the night. Well instead of growin to the couch at night I can actually go home and get things done:) If you google it to find out about the products or comments that people have made.. you can not find anything bad about this product. I love it and I plan on doin it MY WHOLE LIFE! We have conference calls a couple times a week and i love them cause your able to get on and hear about the product and to hear testimonies of people. If you have any health, need to lose weight, burns, bites, acne, or your body needs to be detoxed you need to check this out!! I am so grateful to Tiff for not being pushy at all . I have so much fun with these girls at the Liv Sxinny parties and I love being around them cause there so POSITIVE! Thanks for a new look at life:)

Getting pumped up for military!!!!

Inside joke:)

gotta love the meetings in the hotel the night before!



Katelyn, jordan, shelby and Demi..love them!

The night before state we went and ate at the Brick Oven and guess
who was sittin by us.. LARRY KINGS WIFE!! She is so beautiful:)

One of larrys kids had a crush on one of the drill girls Kelsey.
haha she was tryin to kiss him!

Cutest girls ever!

The bus ride up to state. The parents made all us cotton candy and
we got so hyper off of it.. we were like little girls at a carnival! hahaha

Well my friends its about that time that I posted about this amazing journey with the Talons!! WE TOOK 2ND AT STATE!! I could not be more proud of these girls... At first they were sad cause they didn't take 1st but I reminded them that they took 4th last year and that anything better is a step up and a goal!! So since my sisters dance for Millard we have kinda been sister teams and so after state we went and got a picture with them. They took 2nd also and they were so sad/mad they took 2nd and we were so excited we got 2nd. haha but when I hugged my sisters I still cried with them:)
Anyways I hate to see this drill year end but am so excited for the next year to come! Its so nice not being so busy all the time with that and to get to be with my husband again. He has been nothing but awesome and supportin me every step of the way with all this drill team action.
When I first applied for this job I told myself that it will probably be so different then what i'm use to. They had taken 4th at state last year and thats the best they have ever done and I think just 2 years before that they didn't even make it to state. So goin into to this position I was just preparing myself that we would be just ok and that it would probaly be just a growin year. When I think about the first of the year and watchin all them dance I was suprised at all the talent they had on the team and I was so excited to get to work with them. They have seriously come so far..... SO FAR! It really was the best year and all the girls got along so good and we never had any drama and everyone was just best friends. We had some awesome seniors and awesome captains this year. Its always so hard to say goodbye to the seniors but so fun to see new ones come on the team and new leadership. I am so glad that Krysten ( head coach) and I get along so well.. I really look forward to coachin with her next year( by the way she got coach of the year for 3a) . I am so so grateful for my little Talons and I hope they know how much I love them. They really are my other family and event though I don't have kids I always tell people I have 19 of them.. haha
Thanks to everyone who supported me and the Talons and the Millard Selgaes. I had such awesome support from my family and extended family and thanks to Diane and Kristen for comin and watchin in Richfield. It meant more to me then you will know:) We have our year end review March 3 at 6:00 pm.. You all are invited if your not doin anything! THANKS AGAIN TALONS AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND I'M SO PROUD. CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT DRILL SEASON!! MUAHHHHHH :)

..."I believe in the family where there
is a husband who regards his
companion as his greatest asset and
treats her accordingly;
where there is a wife who looks upon
her husband as her anchor and strength.
The cultivation of such a home
requires effort and energy,
forgiveness and patience,
Love,
and, endurance, and sacrifice;
but it is worth all of these and more."....
