Can anyone enlighten me please?!

So Tylie is quickly approaching her first birthday, which means we can turn her car seat around! (if she is 20 lbs by then) YAY and hallelujah! The only problem is I have absolutely NO idea what kind to get. It seems like there is a million and one to choose from! The first stage car seat seemed so easy to choose from...I just picked the cutest pattern...just kidding! But really they all just seem so huge and look all the same to me! Some are $75 and some are $450 but they look exactly the same. So can anyone help a sister out and enlighten me please?! Thanks in advance!

lucky one

Here's the thing, I hate that I have to be away from Tylie when I have to go to work. I am so lucky that I have a job that will pretty much let me choose my schedule. So right now I work Tues-Thurs. It is so nice to work part time and then be with Ty for a 4 day weekend.

Here's the second thing, when I am at work can I really even call it work? I think not! I am the Design Team Leader so pretty much I have a group of students that I take around with me and we do hair and make-up for fashion shows, we promote the school and I go around to salons to help place these students when they graduate. So this past weekend we had a design team event in Big Bear. Paul Mitchell sponsor's Burton snowboards and they are having a demo tour across the country so we get to follow them and promote Paul Mitchell. What this tour entails is pretty much they set up a huge dome with all of the newest, latest and greatest equipment, like snowboards and bindings and anyone can demo it for free for the entire day. So while we are there they put us up in the nicest hotel, pay for all our food, give us free lift tickets, give us clothes and jackets to wear and we can demo any board we want...not to shabby by any means! I get paid for going and the students get hours which means that everyone is happy!

This is what the Paul Mitchell dome looks like...This is my crazy design team...love them!

These are the products we were promoting this weekend, and giving away samples of. Tea Tree and our newest Tea Tree Lavender Mint.

I have the coolest team so even when I am away from home missing Shane and Ty, at least I get to hang out with such awesome people!

Working hard while the others were on a run.This weekend was especially nice because Shane was actually in Big Bear with the young men too. So it was nice to have him hang out with us for a bit! We even got to go on a run together. It was actually our first time boarding together, but it definitely will not be our last, we had so much fun!

I guess what I am trying to say is that, there is times when I wish I could just be with this little face all day long

and hear this little laugh forever and ever

but I realize that it is impossible right now, as Shane is in his last semester of school (YIPPEE) and working so darn hard! So I've come to grips that I am so lucky, because I have such a great job that I absolutely love! I truly am so thankful, and one day I will get to be with these faces everyday!

In the meantime I guess I feel like I really am the lucky one!

Tylie and Football

Well she is taking after her daddy. She Loves and yes I mean Loves Football!!!! She has watched many games with me and is already learning all about the great game. She has even learned who to cheer for. Of Course BYU!!! Her Holidays were good but would of been a lot better if BYU had won their bowl game.

She has just heard that we are going to be able to go to a BYU Football game next season. As you can tell she is already counting down the days.

A post for my sister in-laws...from yours truly.

Well, it's finally official! I am one of you. I might not have read all of the books yet but I did go see the movie! In the beginning I thought it was a bit cheesy but by the middle end, I really liked it. It definitely peaked my interested and now I really have to get over my A.D.D. and find time to read it already! I remember a shopping trip to Ikea over a year ago and all you guys were talking about was Edward this and Edward that (at the time I had no clue what you all were talking about) and well it has to be said...Nicole please don't leave Jason for Edward! Jason is way hotter, but that's just my opinion. Ha ha, love you guys!
