some more needed updates....

So a couple more things that have happened kinda recently is Abby, Tyler and Tracy's girl, turned one on May 28th!! It was so fun to celebrate with them. For her actual birthday we went out to Craigos and then the Saturday after we had a big family and friends party. It was lots of fun watching her eat her cake and she wasn't really interested in unwrapping the presents just playing with them!

Here is me and Abby!!

Cousin Garet helping her eat her cake and showing her how to eat it!!

The end result of her and the cake!

The cake before the damage! It was so cute, but Tracy didn't like it!

She was not interested in opening them at all, Tracy would open them then she liked them!

Another update.....

I went to the zoo with Tracy and Abby and it was Abby's first time! It was so much fun to walk around, but again Abby didn't seem all that interested in some of the animals. She liked the monkeys and some of the bigger animals, but it wasn't amazing to her!

Abby and her mamma!

The white monkey here had his butt up against the window and Aunt Becca not thinking about what she was saying said the word butt and pointed at the monkey and Abby started calling the monkey butt!!! it was pretty hilarious. She thought its name was butt!

She really wanted to play with the monkeys!

a late update...and more to come

So Memorial Day weekend we went on our first camping trip as a married couple. We went with some of my family and went fishing the second day that we were there. We went up to Big Elk and it was so much fun.

Here is me brushing my teeth with no make up on!!!

Brian brushing his teeth very well!!! :)

We are preparing to hike down to where we were going to fish.

Brian ended up carrying a lot more...in the middle of the hike he carried some of my mom's and sister's stuff!

Brian and my dad with the fish that Brian caught.

My beautiful fish!! it was one of the biggest.

My nephew Ethan got one of the crap fish that we threw up on the bank and tied a rope on it and he was dragging it on the bank and this is where Brian got him to kiss his fish!! it was disgusting!

Sonny with all the fish that my family had caught...and thats not all of them either!

Ethan's hut for when it started raining!

Bryan and Liz made a little tent, but both of their children were screaming right before this picture because they didn't like the rain.

The little ledge that all of us were fishing on! and this is right when it started raining!

Brian's cover from the rain

My cover actually kept me warm until a little breeze came up

Brian and I getting ready to make the climb back up!

The day was so much fun even though I didn't listen to my husband and put sunscreen on and got fried like I usually do, but it was worth it!! I am so glad that my family invited us and that we had such a great time!

WE HAVE A NEW ADDITION TO THE JENSEN FAMILY!

So we have a new addition to our family! Its a beta fish!!! hehe his name is Pepe'. He's pretty exciting. My best friends Michelle or Mike as everyone knows her and Kasey both got beta's so me and Brian decided to get us a little baby!!

Here he is up close!!!


And this is his home!!! The army man was Brian's addition to Pepe's tank :) He is my little baby and helping with the fact that I don't have a real one!!!

FINALLY!!!

Everyone....Brian finally got a job. He got the one at Walmart here in Rexburg. We are so excited and this job is only for three months but at least he will continue to keep looking while he has this one. So thanks so much for everyone's prayers!! We love you all!

maybe a job opportunity :)

Brian has a interview with Walmart in Rexburg tomorrow morning and maybe another opportunity. Even if this is just for a little while it would be amazing. Everyone keep your fingers crossed and pray!!! Love you all!

one last thing!!

On Monday we got to watch my dad brand his calves from this year. This was Brian's first farm experience although it wasn't much of an experience because there were only three calves so there wasn't much stinkiness and there wasn't much chasing of the cows, but it was fun for him
experience. Here are some photos!

The group getting ready for the fun!

The three calves that don't know the pain that they face!

lots of updates!!

Sorry this post is so long!!! I have been slacking pretty bad so I'm going to try to get everything caught up. So we will start with Easter, it was pretty fun. We hung out with both families and had lots of fun. When we were at the Brian's parents house we went out and rolled eggs. This was something new for me, but it has been a tradition in the Jensen family for a while. They roll the eggs down the hill and you get so many and if one of your eggs survives then you win but if an egg breaks open then you run and get the egg yolk and start a yolk throwing fight. I didn't get involved with the fight this year, but next year I am super excited to show them my skills. :)

Here is my first time rolling an egg.

Brian rolling his egg.

After we rolled the eggs we went back to his parents house and his brother found these balloons where you blow them up and you release them and they make an annoying noise and they go up in the air. So we played with those forever. All the neighbors were looking at us crazy and came out of their houses to figure out what was going on.

Here is what the balloons looked like. My family knows these well because we got 5 packages of our own to take to my family. It was lots of fun!! hehe During the Easter holiday we stayed at my dad's because we didn't want to have to keep driving back to Rexburg. So while we were staying there we decided to burn all of Brian's Best Buy shirts, name tags and business cards to have a little fun. Of course we took lots of pictures and the fire was crazy hot!! Brian, me, Tyler, Tracy and my dad all had a little fun with this.

It was lots of fun and we all had a blast. As you can see!! :)
