Sorry guys! I have been really busy lately and have not had the time to blog. But I do have time to read everybody elses. Do you ever just get caught up in life and forget that you have a family that you need to take care of, laundry, doing the dishes, playing with your kids and maybe just being a MOM! Me working has really taken a toll on me. Even though I only work 3 days a week, it seems to just kick me right in the butt!! I'm so grateful for my husband who really takes good care me and our family. The other day I started work at 10 am and didn't get home until 9:30 pm. And Luke brought me dinner at the salon. It was very sweet of him to think about his wife. I had to tell my lady to give me a few minutes to eat my food or else I would've probably past out on her of low blood sugar. You know what I need; I need a vacation somewhere that it will be warm on a consistent basis and not this up and down weather that we have been having. But anyways I will be alot better on keeping this bad boy up to date.

KSL
I for the first time put an ad on KSL classifieds. I was selling some of my nail product for very great deal! And I was surprise that I didn't get a response for about a week but I got about 65 hits. Then all of sudden I get this phone call yesterday and it was lady inquiring about my stuff. She bought it! Yep that's right I sold something on KSL. I am so very proud of myself. I guess I just thought it was harder then it really is.
My Dear Sweet Grandpa
My grandpa turned 78 on March 14. He is a father of 7 children and has 8 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren. He lost his sweetheart of 62 years last June to kidney cancer. We try to keep him busy, so that he won't be so lonely. We always thought that we would lose him first and not my grandma. My grandpa has a really bad heart. He has had 2 massive heart-attacks, 1 open heart surgery, and 3 smaller heart-attacks and heart surgery's to go along with those 3. Now he has conjested heart failure and a pace-maker. His own heart works at 10% and the rest is the pace-maker. He is truley a survivor. But when we found out that my grandma had kidney cancer October of 2006, it was like; this could not be happening. 8 months later she passed away. She was the strongest person; I always thought she would out lives all. Now I try and see my grandpa everyday. Because you don't always know what's coming your way. And life can be taken away from you with a blink of an eye. Especially the ones you love.
So now I try and live life to the fullest.
Marley
Well to make a long story short. Luke got a dog. Luke called me up at work and ask if he could get a dog. Let me remind you; this is an every day occurence. Of course I go through the normal questions: how much is it, what kind of dog is it, do really need it, and does it poop really bit poops? You know things like that. Well he kept on texting me all day. Finally I gave in and told him to go and get the dog. I'm not to happy about it but the kids seem to like her. Luke named her after his all time favorite "Bob Marley". Marley is 1/2 pit bull & 1/2 chocolate lab. She is very sweet loving dog. I think she'll rub off on me, it will just take time.

Oh The Weather Outside is........?
Oh the weather outside feels like spring, but looking ahead in the fore cast looks dreary. I don't know about you guys, but I'm tired of this teasing were getting by the weather. Our family planted over 150 tulips in our front yard last fall. Who knows if they will all come up. I walk around my flower beds to see if any of them have started poking up from the ground yet. Sadly they haven't. I love tulips! I think they are the most beautiful spring flower. I love waking up to the birds singing in the morning and the sun rising in the beautiful sky. I love going on my front porch and taking in that fresh breath of air. Oh how it makes me happy. My kids also have spring fever. They have been out on their bikes riding, jumping on the tramp, and just running around. I can see a difference in them, they act and feel so much more happier when they get to play out side. Well I hope spring will get here sooner than later.

Paizy Mae's
Well here they are; the pictures of the salon that I work at. My friend Mindy is the owner. Well I kinda sorta opened it with her. She has an incredible decorating skills. She thought up everything, from what the colors where going to be, furniture, curtains, just everything. She would ask me what I thought and I would reply "yah", "no, that doesn't look good there, move it over there." You know things like that. It is a really fun shop to work at. I get to hang out with friends all day, chit-chat, laugh, and have a good time. If you want to call it work. But I don't think I will, I think I will call it??? You know what how about you guys give me some ideas for a new job title? That way Nail Technician isn't so boring.... Well ready to take the tour!

The Day's Of Our Lives
Well to give you an idea of what goes on the in the Avina house hold, I'm going to tell what a brief summary. Luke works out at Dugway and has been there for 5 1/2 years. His job consist of watching movies on his down time and blowing things up. WOW! I think that's every guys dream, is to blow things up. How lucky is he! And at the end of the day he comes home to his wife, kids and to home cook meal. How spoiled is he! Luke is also the in the Elders Quorum Presidency; he is the Secretary. And very busy at his calling. Luke is a loving husband and father.
Well lets talk about Me for a little bit. I'm a stay at home and I work part time. I love staying at home with my kids, because I know that they are being loved like they should be. But like I said I do work part time. And that is I'm a nail technician. Yep, that right I do nails. I love it! I get to keep my own schedule and I'm my own boss. Don't let me for get I make good money as well. I will be putting pics of the salon that I work at up in a couple of days, that way you can see where I work. I'm also in the Relief Society Presidency; I'm the Secretary. Wo is that a busy calling. But I love it because I'm starting to get to know all the ladies in the ward.
Bryerly is 5 years old and will be turning 6 in May. How they grow so fast. She is my little tender hearted Princess Butter Cup! She still has that red hair and green eyes. I know, your probably asking, where does she get it? I don't know to tell you the truth. Maybe someone down the line somewhere. She loves to dance especially break dance and hip-hop! Boy can she get down. She is definitely my Princess!
Baby Lukey is 3 1/2 years old and will be turning 4 in August. He came up to me the other day and told me to start calling him Prwince Wukey. Just some of the things he comes up with make me laugh. Lukey can always put a smile on your face no matter what the situation may be. But he also can push the right buttons to make me wanna go crazy. Isn't that what little boys are suppose to do. He is my Prwince Wukey for all time.
Well i think that sums it all up. I'm just so greatful for my wonderful family and knowing that we will be together forever.
