We decided on a name for the rabbit. We've named her Lola. It fits her very well.

Birthday!
So it's my birthday and I have to say it has been great. I am not a person of many wants, and I have the things I need, so when someone asks what to get me I tell them I don't care. When you truly don't care what you get and you just love the thought, you will get some of the coolest gifts. To start with one of my friends gave me some flowers and a bottle of Captain Morgan.
I got some more flowers from my inlaws. They are beautiful lilies. The great part about them is that I can plant them and see them every year.
While Cami was here visiting a month ago she bought me a bead for my Trollbead bracelet. For those of you who don't know a Trollbead bracelet is kind of like a charm bracelet. The beads are designed by artists. Some of them are glass but some are not. Every bead has a meaning and they are all handmade so no two beads are exactly alike. It is something fun that I enjoy.
Cami bought me the bead called Caribbean. It is the dark blue one with the green spots. It is supposed to represent the blue water and the green scenery. She said every time I was cold I could look at it and think of warmer places and it would remind me of them. They also sent me a card that is a pickle. On the inside it says "I bet you didn't expect to get a paper pickle for your birthday." I have to be honest and say I did not expect that, but it is cool and now hangs on my fridge. Where else are you going to put a paper pickle?
Skye and Cali also gave me a bead. It is the one called Treasure. You can't see it very well in the picture, but it is the one next to Caribbean. I love it because it is so detailed. It has little shells, starfish, and coral on it.
Last but not least my husband gave me a great gift. As you all know my luck with dogs is not very good so instead we are going to try a bunny.
I love her, she is so cute and snuggly, and she doesn't bark. I am having a hard time coming up with a name for her though. Skye suggested GiGi and Lola. I like both of them but I was also thinking of Daisy.
Let me now what you guys think or if you come up with any good names. Over all I had a good birthday. I got flowers, jewelry, rum, a rabbit, and a paper pickle to top it all off. What else can a girl ask for?

Visitors-Wrestling-Life in between
The last month has gone by so fast. Here is a quick synopsis. Cami and her family came to visit. Yeah!! We had so much fun. Little miss Lily was darling, but before anyone asks, no we are not baby hungry. We went to Cody's state wrestling tournament.
I don't know about everyone else but we had a lot of fun. We are his biggest fans and we showed it with painted faces,
red hair, and painted car windows.
We even made made sure that the sister who wasn't there was represented. I can't believe we didn't paint her face though. That would have been awesome!
If you want to see more pictures check out mom's blog or Cali's.
We are so proud of Cody. He took second in the state at 140 lbs.
He is such a great example on and off the mat. What would our family be without baby brother?
I love looking at these pictures and knowing how close and supportive both our families are. We are so blessed.
Lily got to sit on her first cow. She loved it! I think she is a natural cowgirl. Mom however was not for sure about the snot and slobber getting all over her baby.
Lily also loves uncle Kelly. Well we are not for sure if it is Kelly or his hat that she loves so much.
In between work and all this fun we have managed to put together a few puzzles too.
Icicles
Ok so I meant to post this weeks ago, but time has gotten away from me. These pictures were taken the middle of February. If it gets a little warm outside the snow will start to melt and drip, but of course in Idaho Feb. is still very cold so it then refreezes and creates huge icicles. It only does this on the north side of the house because it doesn't see the sun that the south side does.

Within a week of taking these pictures it started warming up and we pulled them down before they did any damage. Now, even though it is not considered warm, it has warmed up enough that half of the snow is gone.
