Just a ton.

Welp, its 2013!   So many new things to write about.. I had to get another surgery. It went alright and things are doing better,  i sat there for months asking god to help me and to help me get through this.  I wasted 12 months of my sons lives being sick and having a hard time watching them.  It was heart wrenching.  BUT.  things are really looking up now. Im starting to feel alive again and healthy.  We Bought our new house and first house!  Five bedrooms, Two bathrooms, 1/2 acre lot with horses in the backyard AND its in Bountiful.  Yes, my home Bountiful.  Just down the road from my parents. Not even a mile. Its amazing. Things around this apartment/townhome are really dull, i go down to bountiful every day just to avoid hearing the constant yelling of our neighbors or gun shots. or dog fights, etc.  I hate it here. Its literally a living hell. only less than a month left.  Well.. we take possession of the house on the 28th of this month. So were ditching here and going to move into our house once that hits. Its terrible here.  We despise this hell hole.. Glad were going into a house.   FINALLY!!!!  We found the perfect house at first and we put in an offer, the man that was selling the first house didn't know what he was doing and had major anger issues and completely pulled out of the market, which sucks for him because that would cost him a hell of a lot of time and money... so we searched more and more... we only had two months to find a house before our contract here would be done... than we finally found an even more perfect house. six houses down from the other one.. bigger and better.   And let me just say, that house buying IS SO FREAKING STRESSFUL! especially if your a control freak like me or a competitive person.. its so stressful and you CANNOT get your hopes up at all and you cant say ANYTHING until you have signed papers, gotten the appraisal done, which takes a week, and an inspection done, which also takes a few days, and than you have to discuss the appraisal rate compared to the people who are selling its rate.  like for instance.  it was clocked in at 200,000   after we got the appraisal it said it was worth 180,000  so we tried to tell the seller that were not willing to pay 200,000 and he had a stick up his butt for about 3 days. So at that point we were put on hold. We offered him 188,000 which is a pretty good deal.  FINALLY he accepted the offer.  He signed the papers saying that we and he took it " as is"    and FINALLY, it was in our hands and under contract and no one else could purchase it.   Than he had to sign other papers saying it will be ours on the 28th and until than we pay 1000 just to say" we want the house"   anyways bottom line, its a done deal and we move in on the 28th....MAN I WILL NEVER DO THAT AGAIN.  I have now 3 ulcers from that stress. Holy Hell.... anyways ill post pictures of that.
ill post inside pictures when we are all settled in.   Jasper is going to turn 3 in two months!!!! And my little Shiloh is turning 1 in a month!! Time flies... Love them with all my heart and soul. 


Love these buggars! Taylor,   Bens brother comes home from his mission in 4 days from Hawaii. I really cannot wait to see him!  Missed him and his spirit around so much.  He is an AMAZING man. Love that stud muffin a ton!    Were doing taxes this saturday, lets hope we get some big moolah back!!!!:D  Anyways.   
Shiloh got to meet Great Grandma TT for the first time and i fear probably the last time.. She is sick..:(  she basically helped raise me. Took me for the summers. always made me smile.   She was my best friend no doubt about it.. I had heard that she had lost her memory quite a bit.. she couldnt remember anyones names and that made me hesitant to even go for fear i would get heartbroken, but i wanted her to meet my Shiloh before she went.   I went up and i took a deep breath before walking into her room and when i saw her, i about cried, she looked so frail.. i went over and held her hand and she called out my name :)  she remembered me even after a year.  and i replied saying " yes its me grandma"  she cried and i of course balled. And than i showed her Shiloh,  she told me she was so proud of me.   I love my grandma tt so much. it was so hard to see her in so much pain and agony... not in her home, in a hospital care center, i didnt want to leave.. :(  it was a happy time for all of us.  
if she does go before we see her again, at least ill know she is happy now and that she is proud of me.
