We met in high school and became instant best friends. When Eldon came home from serving his LDS mission in KY in 2005 We started dating and a long two years later we were married. 5 amazing years later we were FINALLY blessed with our sweet daughter. We are just creating our story day by day....MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.comBlogger37125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-92232786450850955472013-11-13T22:51:00.001-08:002013-11-13T22:51:05.200-08:00Puerto Rico<div style="text-align: center;">
Man we are so lucky, never in my current dreams did I think we would travel. Let alone two trips in one year. I am one lucky lady. In October Eldon's bests friend was married, everyone asks if it was a destination wedding, and well I guess it kind of was. His wife is from PR, and with El being the best man we made the trip!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had only been on a plane once and it was 15 years ago, things are a little different now. I was more than a little nervous for the flight, especially with Little Miss.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We took the red eye it was a 5 hour flight to NYC, Z was bouncing off the walls. I have never seen her like that. Luckaly I was able to get her to sleep half way though the flight. The nice people around us commented that she was "very well behaved" and that "they didn't hear her at all" I think that since she is mine I just worried about every little peep. The 3 1/2 hour flight to PR was much better, Z was exhausted and slept the whole way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Day 1: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The first thing I noticed flying into PR, there isn't much room, everything looked kind of squishy. Next I noticed the color. Utah is not colorful at all. Everywhere you looked there was pink, green, blue even the cement barricades on the freeway were painted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We couldn't check into our hotel for a few hours, so we dropped of our bags and started exploring. Not too far into it we were picked up so El could go make sure the tux fit correctly. Oh man the roads/drivers down there are INSANE!!! I have never seen people drive down the middle of the roads, in between the lanes, motorcycles weaving in and out of traffic. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once the tux was squared away there was a wedding rehearsal, then Denny's, and finally our hotel to sleep.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Day 2:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had breakfast at the Wendy's they have a sandwich there that is called a Mallorca. It is a ham, cheese, and egg sandwich grilled and then sprinkled with powdered sugar. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was really good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*As we sat and ate our breakfast there was a homeless man that wandered into the Wendy's. He was obviously not in the best mental state. A family on the other side of the room from us saw him as well, when the manager came to tell this man to leave, because they had already called the police. One of the young men in the family went and bought food, for this man. It was such a beautiful thing to see charity in works. Good people are out there working mighty miracles, what a testimony builder that was for me. </div>

Walking along we came across a beautiful stretch of beach that had this darling little tide pool.</div>

Then we met up with the wedding party at the "fancy" hotel (we are poor, so we stayed about a half a mile down the road) where they have a private beach and pool. to actually go swimming. Here is the view from the 5th floor</div>

The wedding was absolutely beautiful!! The waves were crashing into the rocks, the ocean was 5 feet away, it was just gorgeous. Watching Rob as he watched his bride walk down the isle, the look on his face and the tears in his eyes, made me cry a little. The ceremony was tender and full of the Spirit of our Heavenly Father. It was just perfect for them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The reception was beautiful, there was dinner and dancing. El gave a toast. I didn't get to hear it, by that time Z was over tired and wouldn't sleep. It was just an amazing party and we had a blast.</div>

Day 3:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our plan was to catch the bus and go down into Old San Juan, as we headed out it stared to rain. It was just a sprinkle, but as soon as we crossed the street it was a DOWN POUR. I have never seen rain like this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the street was a river after 5 minutes, so we headed back and waited out the rain in our room. It only lasted an hour or so. We were on our way in no time.....ish. Our plan was to take the bus down and save some money. Well PR buses do not HAVE a schedule, when they come they come, if they don't well then they don't. It was by far the most frustrating part of our trip. After about 45 min. at the bus stop we were on our way. There was a Chemistry festival going on, and it was a Sunday and all the cruise ships has docked so it was seriously packed. It was a parking lot. But the cobble stone streets and the colorful buildings were just so beautiful.</div>

We went on the boardwalk type thing, it is called the Princess Walk, it goes on the shore around the wall that was put up in the 1500's to protect the port. On the walk there are many beautiful and interesting things</div>

On the Princess Walk, there was a sign saying there were no cats allowed. Apparently this is a hot spot for runaway cats. Here is one that wanted to eat Z's dinner. While sitting feeding her, I counted 10 cats. Then I took notice and on the way back we counted 31 homeless cats.</div>

While waiting for the bus that would never leave, we chatted with a few others that were waiting for the same bus as us, in a hot stinky bus station, that I am sure people die in because i don't think the buses ever really leave. After what seemed like a lifetime we, with about 10 of our "bus stop" friends piled into a taxi and finally made it out of hell. </div>

After getting back to our neighborhood we went and had dinner at Yuerba Buena (? I think I spelled it right?) and had the best meal of our trip. El had a stuffed pork loin, with rice. I had a skirt steak with chimichurri, and mofungo, oh man I will dream of this meal for years to come.</div>

Day 4:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our last full day in PR we wanted to go to the Rain forest, but when we called to book our tour they wouldn't take us with our baby. Something to put on our list when our children get older. So we headed back to good Ol' San Juan. It was deserted compared to the day before. We were able to see everything. There are trolley's that take you to all the big tourist spots. We saw amazing things, there was a catholic church that was so interesting to me, right when you walk in there was a staircase that took you to a little tomb, there were statues and paintings. Eldon took pictures of everything, I never knew that he was one to take a photo of every nook and cranny of everything we saw. So I will spare you the 600 photos he took that day and give you some of the highlights.</div>

We left this fort at 6pm the trolley's were supposed to run until 7, so we waited, and waited and waited. It never came!! So we started walking, we had the trolley map and were on our way. It was getting dark and I was just praying that we could make it to a taxi. * As we were walking a van stops by and asks if they can give us a ride, (all in spanish) El asked if they were a taxi, they said no so we declined the ride. about 5 minutes later the same van comes back and is talking to El, I have no clue what they are saying, but I could tell they wanted to give us a ride. They part of town we were walking into was scary. As El was talking I just was praying and praying that we would be okay. These nice people informed us how scary this area was. I had a good feeling about them, so we hoped into the van. Oh man scariest thing I have ever done. I prayed the whole way, but these amazing people took us straight to our hotel, they were so sweet, and kind and loving. They saved us!! </div>

Heavenly Father really was watching out for our family as we were on this trip. There were many times where I saw the tender mercies, and my testimony grew and my heart was touched. God knows me personally and loves me and watches out for me, and my loved ones.</div>

Time for us to head back to reality. We didn't have to be to the airport for a few hours. So we spent our last few hours in paradise on the beach!! I wish we had the ocean in Utah, I just love it so much.</div>

We pulled out of good 'ol Magna at 11 Friday night. I was thinking that we could drive through the night and make it to OR by noonish Saturday. Boy was I wrong!!<br />
We finally got there safely and were so blessed to stay with our friends the Cash's!! They are amazing.<br />
<br />
We were SO excited to go to the beach. Eldon had high hopes of wanting to surf. We got all geared up, we had our swimming suits packed. Water bottles, fruit and chex mix. We were so excited.<br />
<br />
On our way to the beach we stopped at Tillamook cheese factory it was SO cool.<br />

We pull up to the beach and the first thing Eldon asks is "why is everyone wearing a hoodie?"<br />
as soon as we got out of the car we knew. IT WAS SO COLD.<br />
<br />
I am just glad that I packed sweats for Little Miss. We went to Cannon Beach (where the Goonies was filmed) it was amazing. I could have stayed at the beach and listed to the ocean all day.<br />

Zuri feeling the sand for the first time.<br />

This is Haystack Rock. it was so cool. we walked down, and all the little rocks that get covered by the tide were covered with mussels, the rocks made clicking noises because of the crustaceans, and star fish. We were stupid and didn't bring the camera with us down there. (biggest regret of the trip) I have never seen so many star fish, there were hundreds attached to the bottom of the rocks and left in the little tide pools.<br />

We had such a great trip. It was so nice to get out of our regular routine and spend time with some of our favorite people. The Cash's are so great, and I am so thankful for them. I love that we were able to spend our whole trip with them. I also think it was fitting to spend our anniversary (6 years, woot woot) with them since Claudia is the one that introduces us.<br />

Oh Man.......<div style="text-align: center;">
This has been a very eventful week at the Gomez house. Zuri has been able to scoot around pretty well (she has been working on this skill for a few weeks now) it keeps me BUSY!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But this week the little stinker thinks she needs to be BIG and get into everything. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She can now go from sitting to scooting. This was a big step we used to be able to sit her down and she would just stay where we put her. Eldon would say it was like she was on her own little island and she couldn't go anywhere!! NO LONGER, this little girl goes everywhere and fast.</div>

Another first for this week, pulling herself up!!! Good Crap where has my baby gone?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She hasn't perfected this skill yet, but oh man is she working on it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To aid in helping with less injury as she learns this skill and others she is working on like walking the length of the couch I laid some carpet down.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is Village living at it's best!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had the carpet from 240 and a rug that put together has covered our basement (we spend most of our time here) I wanted a little buffer from the hard wood floor and her head. </div>

As you can see it is BEAUTIFUL!! lol</div>

I have been trying to follow through with some of my Pinterest projects this week. I have made cake stands, and fruit holders. So when El came to me with a sliver in his foot, I thought oh man I pinned something about this. I got online and checked it out. I made a paste of baking soda and water and put it on his foot. Then I waited.........</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
While I was waiting for the sliver to pop out I remembered that if you wash your face with baking soda and water it is supposed to get rid of black heads. So while I was at it, and my poor hubby was laying on the couch I pounced!!! ha ha I think I am a puma. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Needless to say it didn't work on the foot or the face. but I had fun slathering his face with paste :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did have a few successes from the Pinterest today. For our family party I brought dessert and a side dish. I made Cherry White Chocolate Pudding Cookies, Double Chocolate Coca Cola Cake, and a BLT pasta salad. I would make them all again, they were tasty.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next couple of weeks are packed and I am so excited for them. This Saturday one of my best friends is being sealed to the 5 children she just adopted last week. A week from today Dad goes in for a heart procedure, Two days after that my sweet cousin is getting married, And the next day is our 6 year anniversary and we head out for Oregon!! I am SO excited.</div>

As you all read before I want to go swimming with my little girl this summer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well working on making the most of our summer we wanted to get started.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were dressed and ready to go, got to the pool, had time to set our stuff down</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we walked into the pool, we were knee high</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and boom, the whistles blew.........Lightning in the distance!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Double Dang!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But look how cute they were ready to play.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were lucky and got tickets to go back since we weren't able to swim that day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mark my words we will try again!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Moving on, My sweet Zuri Mae is 8 months old today!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is so crazy to think that in just 4 short months I will have a one year old.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She is so amazing, she eats everything!! Just the other day she sat and ate 8 cherries, and a full apricot. for one little girl I am amazed at how much she can eat, BUT she LOVES food.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have not found a food that she will not gobble up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She also in the last couple weeks has started to move. She is not yet into a full crawl, but man does she move fast in her army/mowgally crawl. She has already gotten into the dog food, and dog water, she loved splashing around. LOL</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is hard to keep her clothes clean, she is always scooting around. Or walking with assistance. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She has always been an independent girl.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She Loves the dogs, and loves music. Her laugh is the cutest thing in the world. I am so lucky to have this amazing Daughter of God in my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are a couple pictures of my pint sized woman.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
As you can see by my drink cup, she isn't very big.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
she is almost 14 pounds. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At her last appt. she was 4% in weight, and 9% in height.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Built like her Midgy Daddy!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

Summer 2013!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is finally here, I have been waiting, and waiting, and waiting.....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this winter was a little rough on me, it was cold, and there were not many days where you could actually see the sun :( and I had the baby blues.) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just was waiting for summer time, you just can't help but smile when the sun is out and shinning down warming your soul.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a few goals for the summer that I am going to post here and hopefully this will help me have a little accountability.<br />
They are not in any special order.<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">I want to take Z swimming at least 5 times. I want her to have a love for the water.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">I want to go to the temple with Eldon often, for a while we were going weekly, then life happened and I miss it deeply.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">I want to get our grass back, and hopefully find a love for gardening. </li>
<li style="text-align: left;">I want to spend as much time outside as possible.</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">I want to loose some weight and be healthier.</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know these are odd desires, but they are mine and I hope to accomplish them. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will try and keep you posted.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would love to hear about all your summer plans, and maybe steal a few :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Love - M</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

WOW did we have a jam packed day-o-fun!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To start things off Mom and Me hung out with Daddy as he was doing his WOD (work out of the day) in the garage. Man my daddy is SOOO strong. He did 120 squats, pull-ups and shoulder presses. He is way into cross fit. Man does he love to work out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After spending the morning with just my mom and dad we got ready and went to the Magna Parade!! It was my first one ever.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was so fun, but man was it HOTT!! Mom made sure to bring me plenty of ice water and snacks. Here are a few pictures.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today is Mothers Day, it is my first official one since becoming a mother.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have had a hard time to say the least, for well, all of the Mothers Days since I have been married.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6 all together, it doesn't seem like a lot but, well, I have learned that this day sucks for a lot of woman in the world.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My first mothers day as a wife was about a month after I had my first miscarriage. I was not in a good place at all. I did not deal with this loss in a good way. I escaped into books. When Mothers day came around it was all I could do to try not to bawl all day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Crying and well anger is how I can describe most of the Mothers day's since. Not being able to have a child and knowing that you have no control over it SUCKS!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It makes it the Hardest day of the year!! Going to church was the hardest thing to do, most years I would just skip out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have had very mixed emotions in becoming a mother. My first is Gratitude, and overwhelming JOY. My dreams finally came true. Zuri is the best thing EVER!! I don't want anyone to doubt that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But through out my whole pregnancy and even now I sometimes feel hypocritical. I know this is not a normal emotion, but it is the truth. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For almost 5 years I was in a community of amazing people that like us, had fertility issues. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't get me wrong I know I am extremely blessed. I am thankful every day for my baby girl. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was hard for me to be publicly excited about my pregnancy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
During the years I was unable to get pregnant I always was acutely aware of the woman that had babies and were pregnant.<br />I knew how i felt about it, not that I wasn't happy for them, cause I was. just because I was having trouble doesn't mean I wanted anyone else to, or for people to treat me differently because they were able to have children easily. I didn't want my fertility issues to become theirs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even now I really try hard especially on facebook to not overload my wall with how amazing my daughter is.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know it is hard for some to see, even though I know they are SO happy for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been there, I know that feeling, I know the heart ache that comes with fertility issues, especially knowing that ours were all because of my body. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Eldon has PERFECT ummm swimmers... Our issues come from me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My body does not ovulate, it does not develop an egg into a follicle, and it does not release the egg if by some miracle it does develop. Oh and I only have one fallopian tube. Which leaves our chances of getting pregnant on our own to about a 5% chance ever other month.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always thought that once I was a mother this day would be so much better. Don't get me wrong it is a million times better, I guess I am just surprised at how close to the surface my emotion are. I have been holding back tears all day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They are tears of JOY for my blessed life and perfect baby girl. Tears of gratitude for the amazing women in my life, Mostly my Mother who is my best friend and has taught me how to accept things as they come, to look on the bright side and to fight for what you want and what is right, she is so strong and such a great example to me. Also My mother in law, I am eternally grateful for her, for how strong she is and how she taught her son to be the amazing man he is. I also have tears of sorrow for all the women in the world who have a hard time on this day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wish no woman would ever have to feel the pain of wanting a child, or losing a child IT JUST SUCKS.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Mothers Day!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Lets start this post with General Conference!! woot woot</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I actually stayed awake for most of it. This NEVER happens, all of the speakers talk in such a soothing tone that I am just lulled into a beautiful warm fuzzy nap. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While we were watching Conference as a family, we had fun teaching Little Miss how to stick her tongue out. I hope you enjoy the pictures from it.<br />

Moving on to our next excitement with our little girl. She is now 5 months old and we are loving seeing her sweet and sassy personality come out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As stated above she is SASSY she loves playing with her toys and recently has found a flower in her sit and play, she definitely lives out loud. Loud being the key word. Everything she does is loud, she burps loud, the poops loud, she talks loud, she plays loud.... she is just loud</div>

She is so stinking CUTE.<br />
<br />
I also have come the the realization that I am addicted to sweets, if I could I would only eat the sweet things in life. Sadly to say I know this is not the way I want to live so we went on a sugar cleanse. I am happier than I thought I would be on it. but still the sweet goodness calls to me....<br />
<br />
My biggest challenge has been changing what I eat for breakfast, I would usually have cottage cheese and fruit, or something similar. We have decided to take it to the extreme and so we are just eating veggies, protein, and some fruit. So here are my new favorite breakfasts<br />

And FINALLY we round out the excitement with RICE CEREAL!!<br />
<br />
at her last appointment the Dr. said that if I am worried about her size, and just to get her a few extra calories and iron to start on rice cereal.<br />
She is 5 months old and is not quite 13 pounds she is in the 14% in weight and 17% in height. She is just a little squirt. So we have given her a few bites of avocado, and today we started with some cereal.<br />
She did quite well, and loved the new texture on her tongue.<br />

I LOVE spring and all the new life that it brings, I know there are some out there who don't believe in Easter </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or don't believe in Jesus Christ's Resurrection well I do!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know and find such joy knowing my Savior LIVES, He is not dead He is alive, when I think of this I can not help but smile. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also love going and hanging out with my family, they are so great. My mother works her butt off to make sure we still spend time as a family and it has really paid off. I am happy to say that my family are my closest friends.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This year was a first for me. I FINALLY have a little girl to buy a pretty dress for, I know this is not the reason for the Holiday, but growing up I LOVED getting a new Easter dress.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was one of the only times I got a NEW dress<br />(I am the youngest and always got my two sisters hand me downs)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I remember always getting so excited. Some of my favorite dresses I remember were my Easter dresses. I found the cutest fluffiest dress for Little Miss. I was so excited. so here are a few pictures of our Family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes I have a bright red nose. We went to a football game it was SUNNY</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the stack of mail I just retrieved out of my mail box!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely HATE mail! As with most things in my life that I don't particularly like, I avoid it until the very last possible moment. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If I don't have to see it, than it doesn't exist, right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really try and be good and pick up my mail at least every other month. Sometimes my post person (<i>I am so politically correct</i>) has to come and leave me a little "love" note to go empty out my box.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In other happenings in the Gomez world, Z and I went to the Zoo for the first time!! Little Miss was mostly uninterested and slept through the last half. I on the other hand absolutely LOVED it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The polar bear was awesome, as were the elephants. I took my camera to make sure to take some great pic's of Z first zoo trip, as you can see below I failed.</div>

I have said it before, and I will say it again</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I HAVE THE BEST HUSBAND IN THE WORLD</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
there is no other man in this world that could love me the way he does and put up with all my spice at the same time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
there is a special place in Heaven saved for my man.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have had a struggle in my roll as mother, wife, cook, housekeeper, hair stylist, and very very part time foreclosure specialist.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my sweet husband likes to joke with me, as you all know I have some spice in me, and when he jokes I tend to "throw" spicyness right back at him.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My sweet honey was joking around about how I have let our house get a little messy. I have tried to get him to understand since I have become a stay at home mommy that I am not a maid. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yesterday I lovingly picked up clothes and 6 pairs of shoes that my hubby had left in our family room.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After his comment (really he was joking) I thought I would teach him a lesson. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I WENT ON PROTEST</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then went and got all of the clothes I picked up yesterday and so sweetly thew them back on the floor where I found them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I then proceeded to plan my day so I would not spend anytime in my home (who would want to be in a mess) and made sure he knew I would not pick up or clean one thing in our home today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Zuri and I then proceeded to go exercise (I had to come home long enough to shower) go out to lunch, and then a day filled with shopping. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Coming home I know I was a little more spicy than the situation called for. This happens far to often, but I being the blessed girl I am, have the best husband who doesn't care.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He always reassures me that even though some days I don't get everything done I wanted to, that I am the best mom and wife in the world.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

I love my husband with all of my heart!!! I can not think of another couple in the world that is more perfect for each other, than Eldon and Margeaux!!</div>

And baking...<div style="text-align: center;">
I got called to serve in Young Women's this past month. I am the beehives advisor (woot woot)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am so excited, the girls are amazing and I am just so happy about this new adventure</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love to see the girls and how excited they are about things.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has also been very eye opening to hear first hand the trials that face the youth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have busy schedules and extra activities, they are already planning on</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How to get scholarships for collage, they are 12 & 13, when I was that age I think </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was trying to figure out how to get out of class.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love these girls, and the other women I am serving with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Other things that are going on, Little Miss rolled over for the first time today.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought this would never happen, because when I put her on her belly she always sleeps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But today she did it. I put her on her belly I turned to do something and when I looked back, she was on her back!! She is getting so big. I love seeing her grow and discover new things everyday.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She LOVES her daddy, and who wouldn't? he is constantly singing to her about everything.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favorite was when he sang to her about being made with a turkey baster!! LOL</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He is always willing to change diapers and take her when she is fussy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love seeing the love he has for her, and to see the recognition she has, her eyes light up when daddy comes home.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am working on creating a new me. I have a goal to make me healthier.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been doing water aerobics, and trying to make better eating choices, we bought a good blender so I now make veggie packed smoothies. I also went to the gym yesterday with an amazing woman from my ward. She is a great motivator. Hopefully I can just keep with it, and meet my goals.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will keep you updated on this adventure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I have been getting used to my new roll as a stay at home mom, I have been trying todo the things I would always say I would when I could just stay home. It is harder than I thought, I don't have as much time as I thought I would, but I am working on it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today my goal is to make bread, I have never done this before....I will let you know how it goes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Oh how we are blessed!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last Sunday (Super Bowl Sunday) we were able to bless our sweet baby. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am just in awe at how blessed I am to have the Priesthood in my home</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Spirit was SO strong and our beautiful daughter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
was blessed with so many sweet blessings from our Heavenly Father!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were lucky enough to have some of our friends and family come and support us. </div>

It was amazing!! We were so blessed to have one of our churches General Authority's come. Elder Richard G. Scott!! oh man was it good. He was nothing like I expected him to be.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Instead of having a talk prepared he called people out of the audience, he sent microphones around so anyone could ask questions, and he was hilarious. SO GOOD!! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Listening to an Aposile of the Lord bare testimony of Jesus Christ was UNDENIABLE!!. The Spirit was so strong and so beautiful, I don't think anyone left with dry eyes. I know I didn't. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know and am so greatful that the True church is on the earth, I know that Heavenly Father is real, He loves me, and listens and answers my prayers. I know the Atonment is real, Christ didn't just suffer for my sins, he suffered every heart ach, disappointment, and sorrow I have ever had, He knows me and loves me. The plan of salvation is real, it really is the plan of happiness. I am so blessed to be sealed to my best friend, and to know that my family will be together forever. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know that the church is true, it is undeniable, and I love it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
P.S. Elder Scott said "make sure to smile" we don't want people thinking our church meetings are funerals. He was so funny.</div>

I like many others in this life compare things around me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I compare ads</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stores</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
clothes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
brands</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
food</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
hairstyles</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
music</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the work that I do at the mortgage company as well as in the salon</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
just about everything. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am finding this is concept has seeped into my new roll as a mother. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I see my friends, family and the media around me and I just think </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"man I am failing already"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*first a fact about me </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I LOVE reality tv!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it really is REAL!<br />
Eldon makes fun of this little fact.<br />
I love the Jonas', and Guilanna and Bill.<br />
<br />
While watching Guilianna and Bill they showed their new little boy.<br />
He was 3 weeks old, he was holding his head so well and smiling so much.<br />
This made me cry!! Sitting in my little home holding my sweet baby who at that time was 3 weeks old.<br />
My sweet girl didn't smile that much at 3 weeks. I was positive I was doing something wrong, why was my baby not smiling like theirs?<br />
I was doing everything I could and yet my baby hated me.<br />
I was failing as a mother, by child was destined to be unhappy forever.<br />
<br />
I look at the world around me and I judge myself against those I see.<br />
In my head I know this is just crazy, but then my emotions kick in and well.....<br />
<br />
I have found that if I truely look at the way I am raising my child I am doing well, I have never been a mother before, so I don't really know what I am doing. I can only compare myself to those around me<br />
I have had amazing examples that I can strive to be like.<br />
<br />

Well I am six weeks into motherhood, so far it has been more than I ever expected it to be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have loved every minute of it, the cuddling, feedings, the sweet smiles, and even diaper changes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then a couple days ago it started........</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The most horrible pain!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was expecting the pain of labor and delivery, and the pain of recovering from pushing a human out of my body.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No one ever prepared me for the pain of MASTITIS!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is like fiery swords</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
being sucked out of my boob every time I feed my sweet girl.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Which is all the day, it sometimes feels.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I now have an antibiotic to get rid of it, and my hot pad is my favorite thing right now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To all women lactating or not watch out it can get ya, and it's a .......</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are no words bad enough!!</div>

I have been wanting to post for such a long time, SO much has happened since last March. We did nothing in the backyard like I had planned. Thankfully the Lord had other plans for the Gomez family. As most of you know our sweet family of two has now become three. Zuri Mae Gomez was born Nov. 15, 2012 6lbs 7oz 19 inches tall. She is perfect in every way, and such a fighter. <img src="webkit-fake-url://BDD7EC7C-7CA3-4E34-B016-02CE8B87297A/imagejpeg" />It is very strange to go through a whole pregnancy, when for the last Four and a half years I have not liked anything to do with babies, because I knew I had issues and was almost positive I would never be able to get pregnant. (there will be more on that later if anyone is interested) <img src="webkit-fake-url://F5A399B8-752E-46FB-8063-C03DE5253488/imagejpeg" /></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This has been the most amazing and scary year of my life. I am forever thankful for Eldon and his faith, without it things would be extremely different. Zuri is such a fighter, all I can say is the Lord watched over us and she was seriously ment to be here. She had a lot stacked against her. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My little girl is 6 weeks old today, I can't even believe she has been with us for so long. She is such a good baby, she is a great sleeper through the night, and an amazing eater, and such a great pooper. We have already servived our first cold. I can not believe such BIG man boogers could come out of something so small.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She went to church for the first time, met Santa and went out to meet Great Grandma Bowen. We had our first Christmas together! It was awesome full of Family.<br />
<img src="webkit-fake-url://94241612-0734-4B1E-8794-471C6D53781E/imagejpeg" />It has been such an amazing journey so far, full of miricales, blessings, hard scary things, and more joy than I could ever imagine. We are so excited for everything to come.<br />

Time really flies, when you are busy (Ha ha ha)<br /><br />We have already done one HUGE project to our home. We <em>(Eldon really)</em> put in the most AMAZING salon for me to work in. I just love him so much, he did everything and we found out that he really can be handy with tools and fixing things. If you haven't checked out the salon, you need to!! it is <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">absolutely</span> perfect!!<br /><br />This spring we will be undertaking another Large project. Our back yard is HUGE!! we have used some of the space for a garden (<em>love love love</em>) but the rest is just hanging there. There are no tree's, no shrubs and well nothing really. So we are starting from scratch, we are going to transform the back yard into a usable space we can hang out in all Spring, Summer, and Fall.<br /><br />El is not to excited for this project...............But I know he will love it when it is done. I am so excited to have a fun usable space to share with friends and family and let our babies play, without getting muddy!!<br /><br />Pictures will be coming soon :)MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-20661923960401470232012-01-09T20:20:00.000-08:002012-01-09T20:41:34.261-08:00The HolidaysLife is amazing!! We are defiantly a very blessed family, Heavenly Father has his eye on the Gomez family. We had a great holiday season, we spent a lot of time with family, and just had a great time. Thanksgiving was with the Gomez family, we had it at our house and we had a blast. The food was amazing, and we just played all he day long. El went and played football with some old high school buds, we had more pie than people almost, and played just dance until it was time to get El to work. It was just SO good.<br /><br />Christmas eve is the big Holiday for the Guatemalians, so we spent half the day with momma Gomez and the other with Papa Gomez, there is always amazing tamale's to eat with tummy warming punche. It was yumm-O. It was fun to see the whole family and watch the kids open their gifts.<br /><br />Christmas day was with the Bowen's, man do we know how to be loud. But it was great! We start out with breakfast, then the kids open gifts .... Then we just stay all the day long eating, playing and having fun.<br /><br />Bringing in 2012 was the first year in my life I remember not going to a party. We went and were going to play games with my family and just ended up falling asleep on the couch all night long........WAY LAME!!<br /><br />We are looking forward to great things and some good changes in this new year, we are both working on being healthier, one week in and we are both down just over 4 pounds a piece. We are both hoping to make some career changes, and we are planning on taking a real vacation, a cruise (woot, woot) we have some great goals set and are looking forward to the changes we are making!! As always we hope and pray for all of you. <br /><br />Much love, The Gomez FamilyMarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-88411772864464585082011-11-09T13:25:00.000-08:002011-11-09T14:31:57.313-08:00The Gomez PassionsEldon - This last week I had the pleasure of going to listen to my hubbins play the violin at his recital. I LOVE that he loves music so much. He played beautifully, even though all his spare time has been poured into finishing the salon for me. He didn't get as much time to practice. Even with so little time put into the piece of music he nailed it. It was so beautiful.<br /><br />I love watching him get ready for a performance, he gets so nervous and he starts flinging his had back and forth to warm it up. He is so cute and gets so worked up, sometimes this makes so he does not play at his best in front of people. But I am the lucky one who gets the beautiful music daily. :)<br /><br />I love how much he knows and loves classical music, then when we get in the car he turns into a "thug" and likes all kinds of music you would never put in the same league with the beautiful classic soothing music. Music really is a way to reach every person and has a way to direct your emotions instantly. (I LOVE it)<br /><br />He has also found a new love for baking.....cheesecakes in particular. They are always so good, he likes to find new recipes and make all different kinds. So far my favorite is the white chocolate raspberry he made. I think he should start a business they are so good I would by them. like I say I am definitely lucky to have him. <br /><br />Margeaux - I defiantly love a lot in this world, a few of the top are my hubbins' and family, hair definitely (check out my hair blog at shearconfidence.blogspot.com) I love baking and cooking, I love finding new recipes to try and ways to excite our meals. I also am full of gratitude for the help love and support I get everyday from my Heavenly Father. <br /><br />my newest obsession is Pintrist. I still don't even know how it works, but I am sure I can just spends days looking at everything on there. I wish I was as crafty as some of my friendlies are in their little toe. One day, i hope to have that kind of skill. For now i will settle with trying to recreate what others do :)<br /><br />I don't think it would be fair to finish this post without touching on the gratitude I have, my Heavenly Father has blessed me beyond my capability of understanding. I am always amazed at how perfect and comprehensive He is with my trials, and blessings. I definitely know that He knows me personally and is watching out for me. I am grateful for the family He has blessed me with, and the Friends that have been placed into my life to guide and help me on my way. My heart is full of love for my Heavenly Father.MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-69824712060220706712011-10-27T09:55:00.000-07:002011-10-27T10:11:18.098-07:00Life After SchoolI have been out of school for a week and a half <em>YAY</em>, I thought I would have all the time in the workd and my life could finally start. REALITY CHECK There is still no time in the day to do all the things I have planned for my life. Like Jerry says "you have to stop waiting for your life to start, this is it, you are already in it" <br /><br />So here I am in the middle of my life, still not knowing what to do about anything really.......<br /><br />Today I plan on spending some quality time with the Hubbin's, finnish the base borards in my salon, and make some pumkin chocolate chip cookies. <br /><br />It is a start in the direction I want to go. In my perfect life I wouldn't have to work at the mortgage company, I would stay home and do hair, cook, sew, craft, and bake all the day long. This is not my Perfect Life, but for today I am Perfectly Happy!!MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-30658255915611581032011-10-05T12:39:00.000-07:002011-10-12T13:34:32.756-07:00WOWOkay so as always it has been a really, really, really long time since I have posted. Our little Gomez lives have been CRAZY!!! so going back, We started the salon (<em>YAY</em>) it is almost done, we are at the painting stage. Who would have thought I would be so indecisive about the colors(<em>?</em>) But I am set now and we are going to be painting all weekend (<em>if you don't have any plans please come join us</em>). <br /><br />We took a sweet little family trip down to Vegas in June, we went down for the IBS hair show....AMAZING!!!!! I loved it, and even better El loved it. I have the best husband, not only does he support me in my career choice, but he gets as excited about it as I do, because he knows I LOVE it so much. (<em>I know I know luckiest girl in the world right here</em>)We also had the chance to see his old mission bud. The Potts' they are the sweetest most welcoming family I know, and the have the cutest little girl. All in all not only did we have a great time, but I picked up the best stuff for my salon........Grand Opening coming soon, you will have to come and check out all the goodness.<br /><br />After a relaxing month with out the interruption of cell phones...pure bliss!!!! We went and celebrated our 4 year anniversary up in Lava Hot Springs :) We stayed in Pocitello, and let me just tell you it was SO nice to just be with the hubby and not have a plan or things that need to get done, to not have to think about the real world for a few days (<em>LOVED it</em>)<br /><br />Then we had to come back to the REAL world :( I started back to school, and my dear sweet hubby went back to work (<em>he is still looking for a better job....we are hoping to have him out of the retail business when the holidays hit</em>) We have gone back to our regular every day grind..... he is working and comes home and takes care of the house and the dogs, and the construction on the salon......and I go to school, our days are long, we don't get to see much of each other, and when we do we are usually falling asleep on the couch (<em>yup every night.....till 2</em>) But there is a light at the end of our tunnel. I graduate Oct. 17 FINALLY!!!!!!!<br /><br />Sept. 17 my father (<em>greatest man in the whole freaking world</em>) went into Cardiac Arrest, we were getting in the car after my nephews football game (<em>go pirates!!</em>) and Dad just went down. Right there on the side of the car, right in front of Talia, and Lauren to see. He stopped breathing and they (<em>we are so lucky there was a nurse and police officer right there who saved him</em>) after about 5 minutes of CPR got his heart started again and got him breathing (<em>YAY</em>). He was taken to the hospital, he had a heart attack (mom calls them episodes) and was in A Fib for 4 days. After a pace maker/ defibrillator was put in they shocked his heart back into a regular rhythm. After 3 procedures and a few setbacks (<em>dang Kidney's</em>) He was finally released to go home and recover from his "Episode" and 12 day stay at the hospital. I am very happy to report he is doing AMAZING!! There were so many blessings from our Heavenly Father that came into play to keep my Dad here with me and I am FOREVER thankful.<br /><br />Moving on to happier and brighter things (<em>hopefully</em>). We have big plans for our little family in the near future, we want to go to Guatemala (<em>I still haven't met all the family......or learned Spanish</em>), also we want to get Eldon back in school for a graduate program of some sorts, while I try and get enough clients that I don't have to work at the mortgage company any more (<em>wishful thinking</em>). We are hoping to adopt another dog into our family (<em>my niece calls us the Duger of Dogs LOL</em>) and just keep plugging away and being happy.MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-17144804729146196502010-12-18T22:45:00.001-08:002010-12-18T22:46:31.045-08:00FINALLY.......Home Sweet Home!!It has been almost 6 months now and we are the HAPPIEST couple in the world. We closed on our house May 27, 2010 and it is perfect for us. It is not a huge home by any means but it is ours. Our home has 3 finnished bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (Eldon and I finally don't have the share) a good kitchen, a front room and a family room with the laundry area not finnished (thankfully) It is PERFECT.......I am going to put in a salon. what could be better than haveing my own space to do hair (which I love...duh) while staying home. and then just wait the fun keeps coming there is still an unfinnished basement. Plenty of room for the two of us(plus the boy-dog-son)<br /><br />The yard is huge, I wanted to get goats and I had Eldon warmed up to the idea about the same time Diezel came into our lives. We planted our first garden and are still enjoying the fruits (actually just vegitables) of our labors. El decided that he LOVES bell pepers so he planted 6 dear hell between that and the zuccini I think our freezer is full. The BEST part about our house I must say is the garage. I love that I don't have to scrap the snow or frost off of my car in the mornings (I am usually running late as it is) <br /><br />We have both been enjoying the new found task that come along with home ownership, the yard was a huge pile of dead looking weeds when we moved in and the sprinkling system wasn't working all that great. My dear sweet hubby has been so brave and we now have grass and sprinklers that work and a yard that looks like we care about our home. <br /><br />We have had a few bumps in our new responcibility of taking care of a house. We DEFFINATLY miss being able to call maintainance when anything needs to be fixed or if we even need a new light bulb. Now it is all up to us, and I feel we have learned to work better as a team. Eldon is finally becomeing one of those "handy guys" that just know how to fix anything that needs fixing. <br /><br />I love the space that we have, considering that our first appartment in the village could fit in my kitchen/entry rooms and the second appartment the 2 beadroom could fit in my family/laudry area. We have deffinatly come a long way. I have enjoyed being able to have room to decorate for Christmas, this is the first year I have been able to put all of the branches on the tree....Finally I don't have to just shove it in a corner wherever I can find to fit it. Now it sits proudly in the perfect view of the street in my front room.MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616884634953809424.post-6954867243626648632010-12-18T22:29:00.001-08:002012-12-27T10:12:25.340-08:00There she is.....isn't it beautiful!!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiPL0BMO9YrMNbQ9xsWCnCIHabjTbZobTJTC8oMoQSH5_hXhT8za40ZNPEfmdtLKyLapDbZmAb7B9s4ps8ppOT6NYnvumpkyAFGoocDUrBQ7q-v5B30oolXiH3wKksWKsVnIzxpJaZ-z4/s1600/031.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiPL0BMO9YrMNbQ9xsWCnCIHabjTbZobTJTC8oMoQSH5_hXhT8za40ZNPEfmdtLKyLapDbZmAb7B9s4ps8ppOT6NYnvumpkyAFGoocDUrBQ7q-v5B30oolXiH3wKksWKsVnIzxpJaZ-z4/s320/031.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552277080140052738" /></a><br /><br />Kitchen ..... all decked out for the Christmas!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4nuV9AEvab_pEkGquUIhIt4Y6_38LA20SZbmNNdEGvn8lrrrltS59twATfxvHPyOQSXjKWTKVcpwp98mq2K_v8qQXPexmAEuJHTydA1UhtJ0UYJWU_vmZwDjO6SlBaW_RFom7OQ5Gags/s1600/033.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4nuV9AEvab_pEkGquUIhIt4Y6_38LA20SZbmNNdEGvn8lrrrltS59twATfxvHPyOQSXjKWTKVcpwp98mq2K_v8qQXPexmAEuJHTydA1UhtJ0UYJWU_vmZwDjO6SlBaW_RFom7OQ5Gags/s320/033.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552277887922533346" /></a><br /><br />The front room / entry area<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeYjvVSDJoer_t2MVR8ELn43yu7mI65EfYONHXIuivQv-2ZkzLRKAjjDr8HrhdUbnUeQqRaXCQdBYnfxbiPn-ukIoH-ev7qsEK_1XTYa2Q5xlJ1Pf7Pu56R2-qS747Dx9TLapcyAeH-y0/s1600/032.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeYjvVSDJoer_t2MVR8ELn43yu7mI65EfYONHXIuivQv-2ZkzLRKAjjDr8HrhdUbnUeQqRaXCQdBYnfxbiPn-ukIoH-ev7qsEK_1XTYa2Q5xlJ1Pf7Pu56R2-qS747Dx9TLapcyAeH-y0/s320/032.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552277389652471362" /></a><br /><br />Looking into the family room all full of cute boys (you can tell our house is definently lived in)<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJUVDPPkmU5WVCwbHxxgYaOXvwv3QBpnnpo1JC1s5SHrZlPKCy77aeHJzaKFbsV0fcb7RHUq9EE3nQDbY9M__ny4-y8RlW3PoIzAOLIeCxyVGi7646rWfJWXdsYQawmEihFRr8XxqPgI0/s1600/034.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJUVDPPkmU5WVCwbHxxgYaOXvwv3QBpnnpo1JC1s5SHrZlPKCy77aeHJzaKFbsV0fcb7RHUq9EE3nQDbY9M__ny4-y8RlW3PoIzAOLIeCxyVGi7646rWfJWXdsYQawmEihFRr8XxqPgI0/s320/034.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552278867285131970" /></a><br /><br />Looking into the back yard<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJyjdiGE3vQ2Qg-GfJp58zDC5Y56St2vdeb0Av5xIakubxqvzroMRbyNOx6960-i3JV9pVweB2-s3D_E8Kx0dRW-sLbenRUp2GktTMCfWoqFn0X7Yy7puQCyED2Jw2592aS0oYBia1oBA/s1600/036.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJyjdiGE3vQ2Qg-GfJp58zDC5Y56St2vdeb0Av5xIakubxqvzroMRbyNOx6960-i3JV9pVweB2-s3D_E8Kx0dRW-sLbenRUp2GktTMCfWoqFn0X7Yy7puQCyED2Jw2592aS0oYBia1oBA/s320/036.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5552279210599891250" /></a>MarGeauxMezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00910174941880360878noreply@blogger.com0
