Neice # 10 is almost here...

I am so excited for this next week to come. My sister is having my 10th beautiful niece. There is absolutely nothing better then being an AUNTIE. I love the fact that I can buy them WHATEVER I want and send them home, I can pretty much whatever I want with them and of course...send them home. But, for me that is the saddest part. Sending them home. my heart breaks every time I have to say goodbye to them. I have such a strong bond with all my nieces all in different ways. All of them are so special to me. I was told once (not by anyone worth mentioning) that the reason that I love my nieces so much is because I don't have kids of my own, and if I did have my own kids that I wouldn't love my nieces as much.That is so not who I am. I think they need a National Auntie Day!! I know I would send my Aunts a card or something. I can't wait to go home and hold this brand new baby girl that was sent here from Our Heavenly Father, and to look into her eyes and let her know that her Auntie loves her so much and would do anything in the world for her. I Love you: Alexandria, Heather, Chesnie, Cambrie, Elizabeth, Brooklyn, Meggan, Kennady, Paislee, Maryanna, and of course the nephews Justin and Peyton.

I LOVE BEING AN AUNTIE

Jared and I decided to go on a road trip this last weekend to Moroni and see his brother and his family!!! MY NIECES!!! We got there Friday night and Jared and Corey fixed the brakes on their van and I talked to Heidi and the girls. Saturday we got up and drove into Provo and Orem and went shopping. We had so much fun!! Jared and I have wanted to get the girls a "Build a Bear" for awhile now and there was one in the University Mall so we decided there is no better time like the present. We talked to Corey and Heidi and asked them if it would be ok and they said yes, so we each took a girl through the process... I had Cambrie, Jared took Chesnie and Corey and Heidi had Meggan and Paislee. They each picked out their very own bear and outfit. It was so fun to see the look on their faces as we were doing it. It is something that I will never forget. I have so much gratitude towards my Heavenly Father for giving me the oppertunity to be the best Auntie that I can be. I may not ever be able to have my own children, but being an Aunt comes in close second.!!!

I LOVE...

The things that I LOVE...my husband, Betty Booop, Hippos, my 9 nieces and 2 nephews, my family, orange drink from McDonalds, Dog-the bounty Hunter, Sage, Nattie, Girl Scouts, Scrapbooking, card making, painting, my sisters, my job, pretty much my whole life!! Thanks to the GREATEST MAN EVER...Jared!! I love you Huners!!

Everyone has a twin...

It's so hard to explain to people who this is. A LOT of people think it's Jared and have made the comment " That's a great picture of your husband" I respond (with a GREAT BIG grin) "Thanks" He really does look a little like Jared. I wonder what people think when I tell them who it is. Is it really bad to have a picture of Duane Lee on my phone and computer at work?

Yes!! I did it and will do it again.

I am so excited that I figured out how to put up pictures. I am so excited!!

Jared and Danielle Celebrating 8 WONDERFUL years together!!

Quality Time Together...

I am so excited for the weekend to be here. Jared and I have been "struggling" the past couple months and we talked about what we can do to make things better not only for ourselves, but for each other. We came up with a good list of things to work on independently and as a couple. The first thing on the list is "QTT". I am so excited, tomorrow we are packing a picnic lunch and going up to Hardware Ranch to see the Elk, and maybe a movie that evening. What a great way to spend time together. I love Jared and can't wait to spend ALL day tomorrow with him.
