Finishing up the run.

Summer thus far...

My summer started off to a really good start! We got some tickets to the raceway up in tooele and headed out there for a day of madness with the guys. We had so much fun at the raceway! If you ever want to laugh till you nealy pee your pants these four boys are the one to chill with! Never a dull moment.



Than we have the end of a really long Hot summer day.... and Reed taking a photo shoot with his oh so loving sleeping wifey! What a dork hu? I think so, but I am lucky to him as my dork.


Than the City of fun but prett lame carnival. Jace and I went with my best friend Nicole and her little princess Olivia, Jace and Liv are dating just so ya'all know... they have been goig steady for 18 months now and finally went on there first date!! So exciting hu. I thought so. Jace took Liv on that one ride with those one awful looking constipated horses.... yeah. But they had fun, so much fun Jace made himself look like a fool in front of liv by throwing a fit when it was time to get off...



Than we have the ever so wonderful 4th of July holiday! We had so much hanging out up in bountiful with the Pedersons. Jace LOVED the fireworks. Every two seconds he was saying 'Oh wow' haha, so gosh dang cute. We also had Strawberry days parade and Jace got chased down by the pleasant grove fire chef so give Jace a hat.



So reed pretty much has the coolest sister EVER. Jenn works for KUTV2 news and she always gets free tickets to the coolest events. This time the tickets were for the 2011 pops concert at abravanel hall, which is a gorgeous place might I add. So thanks Jenn for all the wonderful tickets. We love you.



Than the Hobbler half marathon.... Oh boy. Reed and I were given the oppertunity to run this and as we were training things came up with me to where I had to have somone take my place. So Shane gladly jumped up and ran with Reed. Thanks brother. love you. So there is a wonderful story with this... but if you want to hear it you may need to talk to reed. He would kill me if I posted it up on here. But lets just say some things pooped (yes thats a hint) up to where they nearly came in last place..... hahahahaha.

School.. school.... school... and more school.

Can you tell that I am just a little schooled out. My goodness just a week break would be nice but nope I don't get one. But I can say I am doing great in all of my classes and loving every minute of it.... well except the gosh dang homework... way to much of it. I feel like it has taken over my life. My poor child gets abandoned day after day just so I can get my homework done. But I know it will all be worth it when I am done. Speaking of done..... I graduate in one year. Woo-hoo, my dean at school said if I stay on track I will be graduated August 2012. That is right around the corner!!! I have been in school for 7 months now, and boy does it seem like time is flying by. I LOVE IT!!! But I just have to brag about how well I am doing because growing up I did so poorly in school and could never pass a math class that was given too me. BUT.... I passed math with a 94%. When I first took the pre test I had gotten an 11% on it :/ Yeah super horrible, I had no idea how to do any of the problems but through lots of sweat, blood and LOTS of Tears I learned that crap and passed the gosh dang test. I improved so much that my math teacher accused me of cheating because he did not believe that someone could improve so much in just 4 weeks. So for all ya'll out there, Don't under estimate this girl! But anyhow, I was looking at my grades last week and saw that he had me down for a F in his class so I sent that mean man this....Hey this is Raquel white. I was in your class last march 2011. You had me retake the math test and you told me that I had passed the test the second time I had taken it, but online it says that I got an F in your class and was wondering if you could please fix that immedietly! Thank you so much. And he responded back....."Raquel, Wow, I remember making sure that they knew you passed. I will take care of that immediately. My apologies; you blew that test AWAY!!!!!" You hear that... I blew that test away!!! GO ME!!! and than he sent this email to a chick to fix it.... Cheyenne, Raquel White definitely passed MAT099 the mod before last. Please change her grade to reflect this; she got a 94% on her final.
Thank you.
So anyhow, here is a break down of where I am at and what I have finished! My mommy and daddy would be oh so proud of me!

My babies first hair cut.

Finally after 17 1/2 months I have built up enough strength to cut my little boys hair. I had a really hard time getting to the point where I could do it. But I did it, and I am so very happy I did. He looks so cute. Jace did so good with the hair cut. He sad on the chair and was quite and sat still. Which was super nice. But anyhow, I saved every little peice I could save. So here they are ya'all.

Judging

In college my psychology teacher had said "when you judge other you are assuming things, which in the end you are just making an ass out of you and me." When he was lecturing us on this I kept thinking to myself, now I don't do that, why would I have any reason to judge anybody. haha boy was I wrong. This past week I have noticed myself judging people, on everything from there clothes to their hair to their tattoos. Than I started thinking about the past and all those I have judged. I have seen that I have really improved but why do I still do it? To judge someone on their hair, how pathetic, or to judge someone for things they have said to you. Lately every where I go I see signs or hear stories, and quotes of others judging others, and how it has affected them. Don't judge unless you know the other side of the story.


I love this picture. Poor susan got judged by her looks and was laughed at the second she got on stage. But boy did she blow them all away!

I am working my little tail off to be a better person and not judge people at all. I am trying so very hard to do all I can to be who god wants me to be and I know that he does not want me to be someone who looks down on others.

Cousinly Love!

Now that Reed and I have started school, Jace gets to be with his cousins all the time. This is good and bad for me all at the same time.
Good- Jace gets the oppertunity to run and play and advance in things by being around his older cousins.
Bad- Jace has picked up a few habits (hitting and yelling) that are driving me absolutly crazy!
But all in all I know that he is having a wonderful time being with each of them each week.
(Sorry this post is kinda lame.....)
Anyhow ya'all here are a few pickes of My favorite moments that jace has had with his cousins so far.
We have not had a chance to get pictures with Jace and his cousins Clayton and Brody, or Clixi and Jackson, he has a ton of fun with them as well.
Both Jace and cousin Tailor were sick that day.

This is the life....

I feel like I am slacking on keeping up my blog. Sorry ya'all. I will do better... Well this past month has been going great, Reed and I have really been enjoying school! I never thought I would ever say that, But we really are. We are now in our third module and passing all of our classes! Woo-Hoo. For me this makes me honestly want to jump up and down because...guess what everyone.......... I PASSED MATH, WITH AN A.... HOLD ON(My math teacher just came up to me and wants me to come back on wednesday to re take the test).... UH OH. Well than.... now im not sure what to think. LAME!!!! OH well, watch me show him! hahahaha. Can't wait. Anyhow..... thats all i gotta say. I will keep you updated...

24th or 25th????

My entire life I have been told that my birhtday was the 25th of February. About a year or two ago I was looking at my birth certificate and it said the 24th. For a while I was so super confused I didn't know what day my own birthday was on....Crazy hu. Well I asked my mom like a week or two ago and said "Mom... when is my birthday...?" "The 24th" "Well than why have I always celebrated it on the 25th?" "Well because when grandma adopted you she got the days mixed up." So my mom and I agreed that I get to have two days for my birthday. The 24th and the 25th! Who gets to say that? Well this year I had a whole weekend to celebrate my 21st! Thursday (My ACTUAL birthday) I spent in school. Friday I choose to have my birthday party at McDonalds!!! It was so amazing! I had some of my family and my best friends Nicole there to celebrate with me. We had so much fun, we waited for all the kids to leave the play place and than went and took it over. Reed, Shane, Jesse and I all got up in the play place and had a TON of fun! Than Saturday night the hubby and I went out to dinner at Olive garden! So delish! and a ton of sleeping and naping through out the weekend! Can't complain at all. Turned out to be the best birthday weekend ever!

How we spend Sunday...

I know growing up we were not aloud to do anything on Sunday. Even watching a movie was hard to get the okay for, Once I moved out Sundays became my favorite day of the week! Now that Reed and I have out own place we really take advantage of the time we have together. During this time that we share together we watch movies like crazy, play games, maybe even clean a little bit.... and of coarse take dorky pictures of ourselves. So folks, here is a very huge sneak peak of our Sunday!

Valentines Day!

This year Reed and I had to work AROUND Valentines Day! We ended up celebrating it on Tuesday the 15th instead of Monday the 14th. Monday night we both had school so we had a small get together with Shane and Dustin at their house and made pasta's and played a game 'how well do you know your spouse'. The further we got into the game we were all thinking one thing, "I think this might get me into trouble if I answer this wrong." Suprisingly nobody got into trouble with their spouses. Than Tuesday night we got out of school and Reed went home and I went to my brothers to pick up Jace. By time I got home Reed had a beautiful dinner made for us. I am so extreamly lucky that I have this man all to myself! I love him so very much! I love you honey baby!
