Cedar City Trip

Jon, Austin, Tristan and I took a weekend trip to Cedar City this last weekend to see our other family: Malou, Justin, Ky bug and Jaiger Noah. It was a great time. Went by way to fast.







We arrived about 8pm Friday night to some big hugs. Saturday the boys all went fishing and Malou and I sat in our PJ's till 1pm drinking beer and visiting, It was much needed. It had been almost 2 years since we were out there last. Way to long. That night we had a birthday party for Anna and April, everyone had a great time. The boys played till all hours of the night and the adults visited and enjoyed the good times.





Sunday morning I got up to attend baby Jaigers blessing, He looked so damn cute, cried the whole time the blessing was given. We all went to breakfast after wards then went home to get ready to head home. Although it was a short trip it was worth it to get away just for a few days. It was nice to see Tristan laughing and having a good time, Jon was enjoying himself and Austin was talked to by every adult about how smart he is and what a good kid he is. I love my Cedar Family and am so thankful to have them all in our lives. Thank you for a great time, We miss you and love you all!!!

New Month

It has been a while since I wrote last. Nothing real new in our world. Jon and I have been married almost 2 months and I love being married! We have alot going on the next few months of course with birthdays and holidays. Kody will be 11 October 5th we got him a bike, Jon was very excited to give it to him today. Shelby will be 17 on the 13th, My Sis Becca will have a birthday on the 7th, My Sis in law Kiera will be another year older on the 26th. We plan on having cake and celebrating my other Sis in law Crystals birthday on the 19th with cake, Tristan asked if we could so we will. Not sure what the boys will be this year. Tristan wants to be a zombie of sorts and Austin I have no idea. We are going to see my dear friend Malinda and her new little man this next weekend the 9th-11th. I am so excited, I used to go out there ALL the time and now it has been over a year since I have been out that way. They are my second family out there. It is looking like we may not have the boys with us after all so it may be a nice get away for Jon and I, Lord knows we need it. I have looked into feeding the homeless for the holidays, I hope we as a family will be able to volunteer. I want our kids to learn the real meaning of the holidays and learn to appreciate things more, I think it will be good for Jon and I as well. I have a Cd of the wedding with some BEAUTIFUL pictures, I am in the process of going through 702 to decide what ones I want to have edited and then printed. I will have them up soon. I am doing well in school still and know it will all be worth it in the end. Jon is working 2 jobs to make sure things are taken care of and he is getting exhausted. I am hoping after the new year things will be better and he can slow down. I am trying to think of something I can do at home to make some extra cash. I am sure we have "junk" around the house I can sale on KSL or something as well. Everything is heading the the right direction. We hope to have the kids back in our lives on a regular basis after the new year as well. Please keep your fingers crossed. Until next month, We love you all!!

Fun Things

Some fun things in our world right now... Austin started 7th grade (he is not my baby anymore) he is doing well so far, He wants to play the drums in band and is working hard to get to that goal. Tristan started 3rd grade and loves being in school, I signed up to read with his classsmates every Thursday for an hour, Today was my first day and I loved it, The kids are so cute and love to talk. Tristan is so excited to have me there, he was all grins telling everyone I was his Aunt. I have started my 2nd term in school, This one is a bit tough and I will be very busy along with the boys. I am taking Internal Anatomy, Structual Anatomy and Front office procedures. So far I am liking it just hope I can keep up the good grades this term. Jon is working 2 jobs to take care of his family (One of the thousand reasons I love him). Although there are days I feel worthless and guilty that he is working so much, Jon always reminds me we are a team and although I am not bringing in money right now I am taking care of our boys and making sure they have all they need. I never thought I would be able to handle being a stay at home mom and I really never thought I would ever have the chance to do it. I have worked for 16 years and not working is wierd to me. However being here for the boys to make breakfast, take them to school, help with homework, volunteer and so much more has been so rewarding and I wish I could have done this when Austin was younger. Jon sees his kids every Sunday and is loving it, He is almost whole again and I love it. Although we still have a long road we can for sure see the light at the end of the tunnel alot better and we are taking it one day at a time for sure.

Thanks for stopping by...

Wow.. GPA 3.87

I do not think in all my younger years of school I was ever at a 3.87 GPA.
I worked so hard and made sure I was doing what I needed to get the grades. I am so excited for the future. I know it will be hard and I will have to push myself but it will be wortth it in the end. Come november 2010 I will graduate and be that much closer to my all time dream of becoming a pediatric nurse.

Our wedding day!

Friday August 14, 2009 was one of the best days of my life. This was the day I married my best friend.

I stayed at my sister in law Kiera's place the night before so we could get up and do hair and make up. We got up around 8am and then went to the mall and picked out some beautiful jewelry for the big day. I was not hungry but very thirsty. We went to hot dog on a stick and I had a lemonade while Kiera had a cheese dog. Kiera's friend Jazmin did my hair and make up, We went to her place at 11am and were there for a few hours. I left so happy with the results, I was so nervous and had butterflies all day long. We went and picked up the memorial roses for Jon's grandmothers, Mother and Sister and then flowers for the cake. I then went back to Kiera's and picked up all my things and headed to my Father in laws in Alpine where the ceremony was being held, as I drove there I met up with a friend Melissa to follow me and hang out. I cried on my way there just thinking about the fact I was getting married and I was so very Happy. I do not think I stopped smiling all day or night or even the whole weekend for that matter. It started to down pour and I was so worried the day would be ruined. My grandmother and mother were already at the house when we arrived. It was a joke getting into the house due to the down pouring. I was set up in the basement to get ready. I had to rewrite my vows and just hang out. Austin cried when he first saw me, it was so Sweet. He looked so handsome. While I was getting ready I had my family and friends to visit and hang out with me. Then it was time, Mom, Becca and I got my dress on and Heather took lots of great pictures before the wedding and as I was getting ready.

As Austin and I were getting ready to walk out we found out my brother was almost there so we waited. Once he arrived the ceremony started. I was so excited to see who was all there and to see Jon at the end of that isle. Austin cried as he walked me down and all I could do was smile, Once I was up with Jon I could do nothing but stare into his eyes and smile. The bishop began the ceremony and all I could hear was click click click. There were cameras going off all over the place. After the bishop was done with the ceremony Jon and I read each other our vows and then kissed as husband and wife. Jon was emotional and had the most amazing vows ever. Once we walked down the isle we hugged all our guests, cut cake and took lots of pictures. I am so excited to see ALL the photos everyone took. After everyone left we loaded up our jeep and dropped Austin off then went to the after party at Mixed Emotions. It was so fun, we danced, threw my bouquet and Jon threw the garter. Kiera and Todd caught them so they are next to have the big day. I loved this day and can not believe how fast it went. I am glad I did not spend thousands of dollars on something that is over that fast. Although there were many people that could not be there I know they were thinking of us and we were thinking of them. It was the best day of my life and I am looking forward to spending the rest of my life with my best friend!!!

Thank you to all our family and friends for making this such a AMAZING day!!!!!


I love you babe... Tracey A Wootton
