11 Years and counting...

11 years ago today Micah and I were sealed together in the Oakland temple in California. It was a long day. hehe But a wonderful day.

Over the last 11 years we have lived in Idaho, Utah, and now in Arizona and California if you can count that one week we lived with my parents before going up to school in ID. ;) We, as any couple, have had our share of ups and downs but we are still plugging along happy to be together.
Micah and I have known each other for a very long time. Our first date was in second grade. Well, our teacher and another student was with us, but we like to call it our first date. ;) Don't believe me, here we are in second grade. We were so cute huh. hehe

Micah and I have done a lot together. We dated for a bit in high school then not again until he came home from his mission. But we were at each others baptisms, we walked together at High School graduation. And we have been friends for years. While Micah was on his mission and I was at Ricks College, we both did a lot of maturing. He got home from his mission in Feb, I got home from Ricks in May, we were engaged in June (well, I got the ring in July), we were married in August. Here is our engagement pics. Please no comments on how skinny we were. Ugg, the good old days. ;)
I would add a pic from our wedding, but I realized that I don't have any scanned in the computer. You know way back when I was married pictures were not digital, and we got them all on paper. ;) So maybe another time. When I have some other time. hehe

After 11 years I am still grateful for Micah. He is a wonderful man and a wonderful father. He has had so much patience with me as we have learned to grow together. He knows so much about the gospel and is always wanting more. He teaches me and hopefully I teach him a bit as well. He is a great example to me and our boys. I am grateful for Heavenly Father putting us together. I hope for many more years together. Now all I need to do is get him to buy me more flowers. hehe Love you deary!!

Olympics

I love the Olympics. I have been staying up way to late just to see all the good stuff. ;) Michael Phelps is awesome. Oh he had some great races this last week. I was jumping up and shouting at the tv a few times. Sad that swimming is over. But on to track and field. Not my favorite, but it is the Olympics, I have to watch. hehe We have only watched a couple races and my boys started getting into it. I took this video last night. Oh my boys are so cute. ;)

Pictures

Just Some Stuff

I don't have any major things happening, so I figured I would share some pics. Here are a couple of the boys relaxing in the pool, the kiddy pool. ;)


Here are a couple of the boys playing with friends












Here are a couple videos of the boys dancing, well if you can call it that. ;)






Now you know why all my videos are from behind. They hate the camera. And finally, If you are squeamish please look away. hehe No I am not potty training yet, I am just trying to get them familiar with the concept. They always want to go "poopoo" on the toilet, but nothing ever comes. So the other day when Bray looked like he was pooping, I ran him to the toilet and sat him down. This is what happened...




Yes it was there, look again. hehe It was small but it was poopoo. He was happy that he did it. And yes I even took still shots. hehe That is all I got for now.

My Sweet Bray

Brayden is my little singer. He has such a sweet voice. He will start singing anywhere, during a prayer, during a color guard ceremony at a court of honor, during sacrament meeting, or just sitting at home. I love it. So I wanted to share a couple videos with you. The first Logan usually sings to, but didn't want to this time, so you will just hear Bray. Sorry it is so dark, but you can still hear him.



The second one is my favorite. This is Bray's favorite song, currently. ;) I hope you can hear Bray singing along with the mice. The first voice you will hear is the mouse, not Bray's. hehe He start a bit late. He is the one singing only some of the words. But I just love his sweet voice, it gives me warm fuzzies. I am behind them because as soon as he sees the camera, he stops singing.

My Dad

So I have been missing my dad today. When ever I get in this mood, I watch a video that my Sis-in-law made for my brother. I just love it. So I wanted to share it so all of you can meet my dad, Niels Bassett. It is about 5 mins long, but I hope you take the time to watch it.

Way 2 Quiet

You know when the house gets eerily quiet yet your kids are awake?? I was checking my email and Brayden was in the office with me. Then I realized it was just way to quiet. When I went too check on Logan, this is what I found.



So I suppose I better pay more attention to them. hehe I am guessing that this will be the first of many more of these videos to come. ;)
