Everything tasted delicious! Thank you to my Dad, Mckell, Meeshie, Brad, Jaxon, Kendra, Nathan, Cami, Silas, Chris, & Kailey for coming and spending time with us.

Also thank you to Julie, Dad, & Becky for coming over and spending time with us beforehand. It was great seeing a lot of my family! Love them!

*My Sisters*

I'm so grateful to have my sisters. They are my best friends. I can always count on them when I need something. I honestly don't know what I'd do without them. I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for them.

My older sisters name is Michelle. She is beautiful, always has been. I remember growing up we were best friends, we did everything together. She is now married to a wonderful man Brad, and they have the cutest kids, a boy Jaxon and a girl Kendra. She is the best mom, those kids are lucky to have her. Michelle is so caring, she wants everyone around her to be happy, and if your not, she will do everything she can to make you happy. I love that she loves spending time with family. She is such a great person.

My little sisters name is McKell. She is also beautiful, and always has been too. Mckell is the most caring person you will ever meet in your life. We have always been close, she is my best friend. If it wasnt for her and how caring she is, I promise you I would not be here today. She has helped me through all of my trials, all my hard times. She has always been there as a shoulder to cry on. She has the cutest personality. I love that she comes to visit me and my kids all the time. My kids love her to death, they always talk about her. She is such a hard worker. She is a great person as well.

My last little sisters name is Courtnie. We adopted her when she was little. She is handicaped, she is missing her 13th chromosome, so she can't talk, walk, or do really anything. She gets fed through a tube in her stomach. Anyone that knows her knows that she is an ANGEL, a miracle. She will be 16 in december. I hardly ever see her, but when I do I know she remembers me, she smiles and laughs so much. Courtnie and I will always have a special bond. Before we even adopted her I had a dream about her, she was an angel in the clouds, and then she was with our family and laughing. Then we went to go see her, and I knew she was the one from my dream, I knew she was meant to be my sister. It was an amazing experience. I love courtnie so much, she is the strongest person I know.

I tried looking up some cute quotes about sisters, and these were my favorites-

* A sister is a forever friend.

* A sister is someone who knows everything about you & loves you anyway.

* Having a sister is like having a best friend for life.

* A sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of.

I just want my sisters to know how much I love them, and how much they mean to me. <3

My husband Josh <3

So I am without a doubt the LUCKIEST person to ever exist. Why you ask? Because Josh Kipp is my husband, my best friend, my hero, my better half. I am so lucky to have him in my life, to have him as the father of my kids. He is the most amazing person I know. I would do anything for him. He is so smart and is such a hard worker. I know he will do great things in life. The first time he asked me on a date, I was going to say no because I didn't know him, and didn't like blind dates. The spirit told me SO STRONGLY that I needed to go on this date. I'm SO glad I listened to the spirit, we fell in love instantly, and knew we were meant to be together, that we had known each other before and were just reuniting at last. We swear we dreamed about one another before we even met, and we know we have seen our kids faces before. Its crazy how somethings are just meant to be. Josh cares so much about others, and always would choose to be kind to everyone. He loves to tease and pick on me, and the kids, and he wouldn't be josh if he didn't. He loves to be loved. He is so fun to be around. He would do anything for us. He is honestly the greatest man I know. I love him so much. Not to mention his love making is just great to! ;) and these are the reasons I'm so lucky to have him as mine. :)

A little about me!

So I decided to do a post about me. I do not have good self esteem, and I really wish I did. I feel like my husband and kids deserve a wife & mother who loves herself and doesn't put herself down a hundred times a day. So I'm going to write a little bit about what I like, what my dreams are, and just random stuff about me I guess, to help myself figure out who I am, and hopefully build up my confidence/self esteem. So here goes...

*My favorite color is green

*My favorite food is snow crab, my favorite place to eat is Red Lobster

*I have 3 brothers & 3 sisters, my youngest sister was adopted and is handicapped

*My parents got divorced when I just turned 14

Kipp Family Thankfuls!

So a couple days ago I decided it would be fun to make paper turkeys with the girls and then cut out pieces of paper that look like feathers and have everyone put one thing they are thankful for on 4-5 feathers, and we would hang them up on the wall. It was so fun doing this! I wish I knew how to upload pictures from my phone onto my blog, its so frustrating that I can't. Hopefully ill have pictures up soon. The things Hailey is thankful for is Batman (she thinks he's her boyfriend), Jordyn, Kaden, Mommy, & Daddy. Jordyn is thankful for the color blue, Alex the lion (On madagascar), food, snowmans, and the floor. Kaden is thankful for Mommy & Daddy, Bottles, Baths, and Hailey & Jordyn. Josh is thankful for Family, our house, his job, & beer. Im thankful for Josh, Hailey, Jordyn,& Kaden, my cell phone, coffee, Being with my dad again, & our house. These are only a couple of things we are thankful for, we are so lucky to have so much. :)
