New news....

So the latest on what's going on in the Roper home ;0) ... So Branum moved back and is living with us and so far so good. He is a great little brother! He applied for some jobs and hopefully he can get one of them soon! I am trying to kick his butt on the right track! I told him if he lives with me he has to keep a good job and go to school... so we will see how things turn out! I hope that he does good because I would hate to see him just waste this time that he has to actually do something for himself that will pay off in the long run! I told him that he needs to get a good job and go to school to have a career before he gets married and has kids because then he won't be able to, or at least it will be much harder to! Believe me I want to go to school and it is soooo hard for me right now!!!!.... Well I quit my job at the hospital and I am sad about it! I loved the girls I work with and most of the nurses!! Cryssi, Russ, Craig, Becky, Jen, Tom, Sara, Holly, Amber... just to name a few! It was a good learning experience!! I wish I could stay there, but the drive is too far for the gas prices being the way they are!! I can't ride trax there either because I have to drop the kids off to Nick on my way to work and I would have to leave an hour earlier then what I do now and I can't drop the kids off any earlier to Nick! So my last day is technically the 25th, but I told my boss that I would stay to train so we will see when my last day really is! ... Well so now I am on the hunt for another job :0( I hate it because I so don't do well in interviews!!! I get so nervous my mind goes blank!!! ahhhh I hate them!!! So cross your fingers for me that I can find another great job close to my home and soon!!!!!!

Ash came to stay! YAY!!

So Ash and her two kids came to stay for a week!! Yay! We had fun! Other than we were both broke so we didn't get to do much, but it was nice to have their company! We were able to go swimming at the city pool and play on the splash pad there too! That was fun! We also took pictures for a Father's Day present! I think they turned out cute! It was a little windy, but other than that I think we did a fine job at our photography shoot LoL! We took the pics in my neighborhood! We have such a beautiful view of all of Salt Lake!!! I miss Ash and the kids already!!!! Can't wait when she can come back and stay again, this time we have to save money so we can do more things together!!! :0) 

Swim Day!

Our splash pool opened and Corben has been begging to go! So I took him and Beckem to the pool! Corben is trying to get his shirt off and it got stuck on his head hehe and Beckem I was putting sunblock on his face he thought that was pretty funny! We had Fun! Beckem was not sure about going in and he hates grass LOL... He puts his feet straight in the air lol I am going to have to get a picture and post it because it is the funniest thing ever! Haha... We didn't stay very long I am kind of boring because I didn't have a swim suit to get in with Corben... So Ashlie is coming this weekend... YAY, YAY, YAY!!!... and we are going to go this weekend so I will take pics!! I need to first go to the store and get me a swim suit... does anyone know if they sell moo-moo's at Target? LOL...

Memorial Weekend

So I had to work Memorial day and so Nick's parents came over from Moab to go to the graves on Sunday. We went to Nick's Grandma and Grandpa Whitney's and Nick's Grandpa Roper... It is always so pretty to go because of all the flowers! I told Nick that if we lived right next to the cemetery we would never need to go buy flowers.. hehe only kidding, kids it is illegal to take flowers from the graves please do not try this at home ;0)...  After visiting the graves we went to see Nick's Grandma Roper... She is 94 I believe and she is as sharp as sharp! She remembered all of our names and started naming all of our birthday's!!! GOSH I am 23 and can't even do that!!! It was good to visit with her and she got to meet our Beckem for the first time!! ....Happy Memorial Day! I miss you Grandpa Willis!!!!
