Mexico Adventures!

This summer we went to Vera cruz Mexico and picked up Bens brother Jared. let me tell you I am PROUD TO BE an AMERICAN!! It was a neat experience but to see how those ppl lived and how their country was in such poverty made me so thankful for what I had.. You know those scenes in Movies when ppl get home to America and kiss the ground? Well I thought I might really do that... I was so thankful to be and American I wanted to cry when we landed in Texas, and were finally back in America! We had some crazy experiences there in Mexcio we visted a ton of Jareds friends he knew and got to see what the "real" mexico was like.... it is really sad but it was a humbling experience. On our way home we almost had to leave Ben in Mexico... I guess there was some stupid little paper they gave us on the way there and Ben threw it away... he had to go up in imigration and talk some guy into giving him a new paper..and he had to pay the guy off like 60 bucks! It was horrible I thought we were going to have to stay there an extra few days and be stuck in the airport like the movie "terminal". It was a crazy experience I hope I haven't bored all of you to death!

Lets get Jamee her baby nursery..!!

Ok I copied this from my sis in laws, sisters blog..... so any way.. I thought this story was soo touching and I think I am getting a little teary eyed just thinking about it again. But I wanted to share this with all my blogger friends in hopes that you will be touched also!



HEY EVERYONE! I NEED YOUR HELP WITH SOMETHING!!! I want to tell you about our cute cousin Jamee Kevern! Jamee and Jason had three children, Gage, Gavin, and Gunner when they adopted their sweet little baby Graysen from a young, single mother in Chicago last January. This mother fell on some hard times, and when Graysen was 9 weeks old, Jamee and Jason took her other 4 kids to stay with them until she came back to get them. Unfortunatly the mother was unable to come back and get the kids so they were all going to be sent away to foster homes.Jamee and Jason being the amazing people they are decided "We cannot split kids. If there's any way of keeping these kids together, we have to try, because we wouldn't be able to live with ourselves if we don't at least try."






On December 12 Their Family of 6 became a family of 10! Jamee and Jason adaopted them ALL!



The Keverns were featured in a KSL clip last Christmas and at the end of the clip & article it jokes, "Perhaps child number nine will be here for Christmas next year.



"WELL... About 6 or 7 months ago Jason had a dream that they had a new baby GIRL, and sure enough my cousin found out shortly after that~SUPRISE! She was PREGNANT! And they soon found out that it WAS A GIRL! Baby Kapri will be here sometime around November/December. (she's tiny so who knows exactly when!)



HERE IS WHERE I NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Some of you might have already heard on the Radio that a particular station is having a contest where you vote on pictures of someones pregnant belly shot! The winnner of the contest wins a baby nursery. They allow one vote per valid e-mail.

The web site is http://www.971zht.com/main.html it is under Baby Bump Watch Contest!(It will be one of the 4 pictures you see cycling on the main page!!its the last one, so just wait a second!!)

So if you all will just take two seconds and go to that link and Vote for her you can't imagine the help it'd be for her. This will after all be her first baby girl to ever dress or decorate for, and having 8 kids doesnt make it easy to go get things on your own!

As you've read Jamee and Jason are probably the most deserving parents in the world for this~ and it'd be awesome if we could all help them win!!!

The Contest Voting Starts TODAY, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 19th at 7:00 am, and Ends on September 29th!!!!! Here is the photo of her that you'll be looking for, and VOTING on!So get all your old Email addresses goin and vote as many emails as you have! :) Thanks Everyone!GOOD LUCK JAMEE!!!! WE LOVE YOU!



Here is the picture you will be looking for.

Just trying to save the enviroment.....one bus ride at a time.


So everyday I try to be a good person and save the enviroment. I ride the Front Runner train to work everyday, then take a bus from the train station to my office, which is about 6 blocks. It saves a lot on gas and I am saving the enviroment!!:) But I had an unsual experience the other day on the bus... I was just sitting there minding my own business riding the bus with the rest of the business type ppl...and a guy went to get off on his stop but instead of heading out the door he got right up in my face.. like no breathing room...way out side the comfort zone!! and he said "how are you today?", "you sure smell good" Then got off the bus... SOOOOO CREEPY! all the other ppl on the bus were freakin out! "They were like are you ok.. and what the heck was that??, I can't believe he would do that!!" It was a little crazy! I guess I am offically a bus rider, and aparently I like to live my life on the edge by riding the bus!
