Twins........ Born 6 Years Apart!


Most of you who know us both are probably wondering..... Twins?? You don't even look like twins! Thats what we think! But for some reason since Andrew and I have moved back people always think I'm Stephanie and sometimes they think Stephanie is me. AT LEAST once or twice a week when we are out and about in town people always tell me things like "Hi Stephanie" , " Stephanie I need you to sign here" , "Mom's out without the kids huh?", or "So you aren't working at Farmers anymore?" it goes on and on! Stephanie gets it too like the other day someone that I had been talking to earlier asked her "So did you get it all figured out" and she was like "uh....... yeah???" The lady finally realized that it was Stephanie and not me and told her "nevermind.... I think I'm losing it". It's too funny! One of the funny ones was when Stephanie was at Wal-Mart, someone that I graduated with saw her and stood infront of her, didn't say it but was kinda like "uh hi!" then they realized it wasn't me and kept walking. So funny! We just can't see how people can get us that mixed up? Sometimes when I have to tell them "no I'm Jackie, Stephanie is my sister" they ask "Oh my goodness are you TWINS????" Yeah I guess so, just born 6 years apart!!! We really don't think we look THAT much alike ... do we? I'm about 4 inches taller than her, she has dark brown hair and I have blonde. I guess its the cheeks that confuses everyone.

Well this month has gone by pretty fast. As you can see it has been one month since my last post. Its pretty sad, but I really don't have anything to post. No kids yet and i'm pretty sure that no one wants to hear about how our dog is doing. Anyways, over the past weekend we went to Safford to see Andrew's family. That was alot of fun. We got to see his, I guess OUR new nephew. He's a cutie! For some reason I just can't put it in my head that his neices and nephews are mine too. We had a family picnic at Roper lake and that was fun. We played horse shoes, ate lunch, and Andrew tried to fish, but no luck. What a fun weekend. Then on monday his other sister stopped by on their way through town to see us. It was a lot of fun! Well not much more has been going on. Mostly just working. I'm pretty excited for this next up coming month! Alot is going on. We get to go camping, start planting some grass, and just have the nice weather. I'm so excited! Hopefully i'll have more to say here in the next couple weeks.

Book Tag

The Rules...

1. Pick up the nearest book (at least 123 pages).
2. Turn to page 123
3. Find the 5th sentence
4. Post the 5th sentence on your blog
5. Tag 5 people

Ok, Paula tagged me to do a book tag. I don't have very many books here at my house but the closest one to me I about died when I saw what it was. We got it for our wedding from one of Andrew's mission companions. Its called "The Action Hero's Handbook." Its a weird book but when I looked at the 5th sentence I thought is was funny. The 5th sentence is "Getting hit with a chair from behind, or from any side by a metal chair, will inflict a significant amount of pain and injury." I don't know why but Andrew thinks this book is hilarious.

I tag Amber, Kamarie, Traci, Tiffanye, and my mom.

Our Valentines Day!


What a great Valentines day it was! Andrew wanted to buy me a new set of scriptures for Valentines day. I have been wanting some for a while now. Some that have my new name on them. He was affraid that I was going to think it was dumb to get scriptures for Valentines Day, but of course I didn't I was excited. I haven't gotten them yet but they are on there way and I'm so excited!! He also gave me flowers.... not roses, red tulips! They are so pretty! I love them! He is such a sweet boy! Anyways, I wanted to make Andrew a cake that said I love you on it, so I did. After a few hours I was finally done with it, I put it on the counter and went to go do a few other things in the room. I came back in the kitchen and there I see Roxy tucking her tail and running out as I walk in (knowing she was already in trouble)......... oh and I can't forget to mention her licking all the white frosting thats all over her black lips as she is running away! Oh I wanted to beat that dog!!!!!! She made me so mad I wanted to cry!!! After a while I thought oh well, I guess life wouldn't be any fun with out stories like that to look back on and laugh. This Valentines Day was great!

Well not a whole lot has been going on lately. Just working! Andrew and I have recently gotten new callings. Andrew was called to be the new scout master and likes it so far and I am the first counselor in the Young Women. It been lots of fun being in there with all the girls and it has been a good experience too.

Wow! I think that it is way past time to change my blog. We had a great Christmas! We were able to go to Andrew's parents house for a few days before and then came home and had Christmas here in Winslow. Its always fun to go see them. Since then we have just been really busy. We are now managing RT Rentals here that my dad recently bought. It has been lots of fun learning how to run it and it will be even more fun when we can run it with ease and make it grow. Not much more has happened lately and we don't have kids yet to tell about, although we do have Roxy and she is just growing bigger and bigger (I'm sure you all want to know about her!).
