Alayna strikes a pose to let you know how cute she is after she gets her hair done.
Mom tried a new hairdo - what do you think? 
Alayna loves eating corn on the cob - she had it for the first time last week and I cut it off the cob and she didn't want it like that - she wanted to eat it like everyone else, well the rest is history.
Alayna is absolutely crazy for dogs. She just loves them and today she was able to see her cousin's puppies - cute little miniature schnauzers, they are one week old and Alayna was trying to crawl in the box with them. She was so soft and gentle with them, it was so cute. After about 5 minutes the new mother was going crazy - so we picked up Alayna to leave and she threw a giant fit - she didn't want to go.
Well a lot has been going on for us. We spent a couple of days in Cedar City and at the Cabin. To celebrate our anniversary(a couple of days early) which was on Tuesday, August 12 - we went to see Les Miserables at Tuacahn in St. George on Saturday, it was amazing...we had such a great time. The actors did a great job and the scenery was incredible. It was really nice to spend an evening out together - we don't do it enough. Anyways - I just have to let everyone know, especially Coby, that I consider myself the luckiest person alive to be married to the man of my dreams and to have such a wonderful life. Coby is my better half in every way and we have had a wonderful life together so far - three years!! This last Sunday, we were getting ready to leave Cedar City - when we found out that Coby's Uncle Dustin and his family had been in a car accident and that Dustin had been badly injured and life-flighted to the hospital - we left Cedar and brought Coby's mom (Dustin is her brother) to see him, just before we got to the hospital we received the phone call that he had died. We are all very sad for the loss of such a wonderful father, friend, and Uncle. His wife and three kids were all in the car, but only had minor injuries. As I sit and reflect on such a tragic accident - I realize how precious life is and how it could have been any of us. I feel so blessed to have the Gospel in my life - it softens the blow at times like this and helps you keep things in perspective. I also feel so grateful for a wonderful husband who loves me so much and is continually reminding me how much he loves me and how important I am to him. In Memory of Dustin - live life to the fullest everyday - so you don't have any regrets.
