M.I.A.

I am so sorry that I have been missing in action for the last 6 weeks, things have been so hectic!! So beware this is going to be a long post....

Here are some updates, and the pictures following the thought are the pictures that go with the experience:
I am not going to be coaching volleyball, I decided that it just wasn't the right thing for our family at the moment. The good thing is that at any point I know I can go and find someplace to coach.


We had a fun overnight/camping trip at Gma and Gpa Shaver's house which was really fun we watched movies outside on the trailer and made a fire and had smores, SO FUN!!!!!




I woke up one morning with my jaw out of place, I couldn't bite down or close my mouth all the way, it hurt so badly!! So come to find out you can go to the chiropractor and have your jaw put back in place, it is very painful, but worth it in the end :)


One day while I was at work at the Shaver office, Gma was holding Harley and I heard her call my name, so I went in and found this......






I just got back from a three and a half week trip, first to Leavenworth to go camping with the Shaver crew, which was a blast! On our way there ALbert, Caleb, Harley, and I went hiking, and I fell in :(








After which, Harley and I drove to CDA for a family reunion and a wedding, during that week we got to stay at the Daines' cabins which are so amazing, Thank you Daines fam!! (the cabin's are the blue and the white!)




The wedding was so perfectly sweet, and I just love Kami so much. I love seeing Matt smile when she is around, and hearing him talk about her when she isn't, Love you Kam (and your little ones too!!!)



The next week we stayed with Cassie and Steve and Candy ;) And Albert came for the weekend and we got to go see Brian Regan, which was AMAZING!!! We went to PF Changs first which was yummy :)

During the week Cassie and Candy and I made flowers and bows for the our baby girls to wear, and they are so cute, I am so proud of us!

We got to have dinner with the Davis and Javier fams a few nights which was fun :)


That weekend was the 4th of July, which Albert got to come for! We went to the parade downtown CDA which is always a blast, to the river, and then to the Daines' for the fireworks, which was soooo fun!On Sunday we drove back to Poulsbo and I got sort of caught up on all of my chores hahaha and then had to go to a team volleyball camp at Western Washington University. It was the last volleyball thing I was responsible for so even though it was very stressful with Harley in tow, since I had to stay in the dorms for four days and carry her non stop. She got really off of her schedule, so we have a lot of work to do for the next 4 weeks before we go on the Shaver family reunion.


Not much else is going on at the moment, and I promise that I will be better at posting from now on :)


So here are some random pics just for fun!!!























We love you!

No shoes, No shirt, No problem

Ok what's your vote on shoes for newborns when going out of the house.....shoes, or no shoes? I'm just wondering if I'm a crazy for always wanting her to have shoes on....let me know!

Need some motivation

It's volleyball season again, and I am not feeling any motivation whatsoever to coach this year, however I can't just bail out on Keith (the head coach) now. I didn't really want to do it last year but knew that it would be a good experience, and it was, but it didn't change my mind really about doing it this year. Except I was too slow to make the decision that I didn't want to do it again this year, and so he wouldn't have had enough time to find someone else....it is going to be very difficult to do practices and especially games with Harley, in fact I really don't know how I am going to do it. Especially with the late night games and things, I am never going to get to see her. I am kicking myself for not making the decision quicker. I don't know what to do now, I guess I don't really have a choice, I will just have to figure it out. Ugh I need motivation, and some sort of belief in myself that I can do this both literally and mentally. Sorry for the venting.

uh oh

We have a problem....ok, just I have a problem. And that problem would be, that ring discussed below in previous post would now quite possibly be a permanant addition to my hand. It seems I may have been a little too hasty in assuming I could wear it and shoving it on my finger. And due to the fact that it has some moderately pointy edges it is at times quite painful. Poop

Lovely Days

We have had a beautiful couple of weekends here in monsoonville, and so we have worked and played as much as we could! Last weekend we spent our Saturday outside, washing vehicles and Albert worked on a lawn mower for a man in our ward....So Harley and I basked in the wonderful sunlight and read books :) I got a wonderful farmers tan however, but oh well, I will take sun where I can get it haha!



While we had so much fun, we kind of got worn out from all of that vitamin D! See below....




This weekend we woke up early and went to the Temple for a sealing session, which I was glad that we got to do this month since it will be our one year anniversary at the end of the month, I wanted to get that in somewhere so we could remind ourselves of the promises and covenants we made. Harley got to spend some quality time with her Uncle Scott, while we were in our session, he was so wonderful to drive to the temple and watch her for us! On our way to the temple while we were on the ferry we saw the coolest thing, a submarine going through the water right next to us it was so cool!

On a side note, I have been able to get my wedding ring back on every few days or so, which is so exciting! I haven't worn it in quite some time due to the swelling and such.....I actually cried the first time I got it onto my finger about a week ago....you know the hormones :)


Love the Shaver's.
