Ketchup... Catsup...Catch up! :)

It has been so long since I have blogged I don't know where to begin.. Well life is funny of course. My Mom has always said "with me it always an adventure." I feel like I have adopted that statement whether I like it or not. Parker is also full of adventures. Parker and I always think to ourselves our poor kids haha
Well I will do a quick update and try and be better at this blog.
Parker~ In June Parker had the opportunity to go to Louisiana to help his Mom move back to Utah! they drove through Texas, New Mexico and Denver, well that's where they had pit stops. It was really good for Parker and his Mom to have some time together. Parker LOVES road trips. We are excited to have her here and can't wait to make some memories with her. Parker has been working away and doing a great job basically supporting us completely on his check alone.

Meagan~ I feel like I am running around with my head chopped off. I am so busy and it is exhausting. I was able to compete in the State Cinderella pageant again this year. I honestly could say this was my favorite year with my Mom. We had an absolute blast. Even though things didn't turn out the way I wanted them to I still had a blast. My Mom is such an incredible Mom and I am so blessed to have her. Parker also was an amazing fan and helped me when it got really hard at one point in the pageant. Thank goodness for an amazing husband. I now work yet another family. It is crazy! 3 families another part time job and two classes in the summer time. What was I thinking?!?! Oh well I just keep thinking this to shall pass haha

This summer we haven't done much and we really need to change that. It makes me sad we have been working away the summer. Plus it is so dang hot we don't want to be outside. I feel like a 50 year old women going through hot flashes. I am so sensitive to the heat. Although we haven't done much, on the 4th of July we did go out. We went to Park City with Mason, Austin and Adri. We went on the zip line by the way so proud of Parker for conquering his fear. We also did the alpine slides and went to the outlets. At night we went to the Sandy parade and watched the fireworks at Jordan High. It was fun to be with family and hangout.
In other news my Mom is getting married which is so exciting. She is so happy and we are excited for her. The only down side is she is moving to Spanish Fork which sucks!!! I haven't cut the umbilical cord yet so I will be sad when she moves.
Well thats basically it! Parker and I are blessed beyond measure and I feel lucky to have an adventurous life ;)

Free to dream in a marriage!

Our four year wedding anniversary is coming up and because of that our marriage has been on my mind. I know marriage can be a personal topic but I also think it can be therapeutic to talk about marriage.  Parker and I have definitely had our ups and downs but one thing that has stayed constant and that is, we are constantly growing and working each day to make our marriage better.  We have been through a lot like almost too much to handle but somehow we always come out on top. I recently had an epiphany about the past five years we have been together. We got together when we were twenty years old and according to research that is the prime age to really find who you are. So we got married and Parker was focusing on himself and I was focusing on the marriage.  The next few years I saw Parker blossom he kept receiving raises, losing weight, and just all around being confident in himself and becoming better. Well I literally lost myself I was finding the weight Parker was lo...

Jags

As I have gone back to work full time I often wonder what I miss with Jagger during those 6-10 hour days. The days used to be our special time to learn, go on adventures and just spend time with one another. Now we try to cram those special moments at night and on the weekends. It's so difficult to be away from him but I am full of gratitude that our bond has stayed intact and that he is so well taken care of by my mom and Jeff.  I feel like I need to document the small things about Jagger because eventually those will be the big things as I look back on them. I love this quote and it pretty much sums up how I feel about my babe... “Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.” Jagger is such a social butterfly and has no fear of being himself and showing himself to the world. How I admire this and hope he will keep this confidence through out his life. He smiles and says "Hi" to everyone he comes in contact with and truly i...

Passenger Seat

Image
Autopilot.... My life feels like it is continuing to move and I am in the passenger seat praying that I don't get hit and hoping I can just coast. It's that checked out feeling and being aware of it but not knowing if you really want to be in the driver seat because you may end up just crashing. It's difficult knowing which one is better right now and maybe it's about recognizing that whether you're the passenger or the driver if you get in an accident you get hurt regardless.      It's interesting how tricky our brain can be about giving us a false sense of hope and to be quite honest, I am surprised my brain still seeks out hope. I heard once that "hope is a discipline" and I'm not sure I have that discipline right now. It's confusing and there's a lot of uncertainty right now in this unpredictable world, fear based motives and personal turmoil as humans. It makes sense why our world is the way it is we are all unsure and living in fear i...
