Feeling fabulous??

Well I can honestly say I haven't been feeling so fabulous these days. I am over weight, can't keep the house clean, never have dinner done on time, and the list goes on!!!! I decided that I need to feel fabulous in order to be a better wife, mother, sister and daughter! I knew that I couldn't do this alone and have been consistent in finding the more fabulous ME! I started doing some simple things to find my more fabulous spirit first. I have been indulging in the scriptures and teaching my children the stories in the Book of Mormon as well. Now on to nourishing my outer fabulous me as well. I joined Somewhat Simple's Feeling Fabulous Challenge and decided to try to make a change to feel a bit more fabulous in my daily routine!

I challenge each of you MOM's out there to make a daily routine in be coming more FABULOUS!!!

The Loaf Love tour.....

Right now Tillamook Cheese is kicking off their loaf love tour. It was so cool to see the baby loaf buses at the fair and eat cheese. My kids loved these little buses so we just had to get some photos.

Fair....

Well it is that time again...You know when we load up all our stuff and our cows and head to the fair. This year Briggs and Allysen got to take their own calves to fair and show them. They had a blast. The loved telling all the "city folk" about them and they especially loved showing them. I love this time of year. Here is Allysen with Rosalee.

Here is Briggs with Tickle. He loves her and I think she is pretty in to him too!!!

This is when we won Premier Breeder and Exhibitor, and Senior Best Three.

This is Ben winning Supreme Champion. Rusti was best of show in all breeds. This is the second year in a row that Ben has won this trophy. Way to go Babe!!!

Drum roll Please......

and our baby's name is.......
......Kiptyn Irving Snell!!!

Name!!!

So we decided to give our baby boy a nickname until he is born so that we just wouldn't call him baby or boy or whatever. You get my point right?? Well now we have come up with what we are really are going to name him. And it has really been bugging me lately that our kids still call him baby Maks when really he has a totally different name. Weird I know since the nick name idea was mine. Well I was dealing with it until last night when we were at the dairy with Ben and he said "can't we just tell the kids his name so we don't have to call him Maks anymore?" I then realized that it was bothering Ben just as much as it was bothering me. Hallelujah!!! So we told our children "his" name. So if you want to know his name you will have to ask one of them. The funny thing about it is that they don't even remember his name most of the time!!! LOL
