A day at the park

There is a park here in St. George that is one of the best parks I have ever seen. Number one it is dinosaur themed and if you know me well enough you will know that every since i was a little girl i have loved Dinosaurs. Second great thing about it is its an all ability park made for all ages and all levels. And of course it is fun, there is so much to do there, riding a train around the park, playing in water feature, the music gaden and a volcano! Thats just the one playground then there is a nature area with a duck pond and path ways to walk. Malaki loves both sides of it from playing in the park to feeding the ducks and exploring the nature areas. Today we went with my mom to the playground and had a blast. Last year when it first opened in Oct. My mom actually broke her foot going down a slide, of course today had no such endings, thank goodness.
So i felt i would share part of our day at the park with you.
This is one of the first things you see when you enter the play ground
Along with many other young kid activities!

Malaki loves this spinning ride and man 
Does it beat the playground marry-go-rounds that
They had when i was a kid! 
Haha those things where deadly!
Fun! But deadly!

Literally I think they made a Baggage thing for kids to play on!

And adults too

This is the slide that my mom broke her foot on
Last year. Its actually the tail of a 
Triceratops.
The benches are eggs!





The volcano! Malaki has this gift to know exactly when to 
Stop playing and run up into the picnic area to watch the Volcano go off! 

The train! Out of all the fun things here to do 
Malaki loves the train the most!!

As you can see there is so much fun to be had at this Park and I have not even shoed you pictures of the nature area yet, but we will save it for another post. So keep checking in for more posts! Love you all so much!

The Jackolope

Tonight i spent about an hour looking up Jackolope pics on google with my uncle max (AKA Bud). Such an interesting creature the Jackalope both a rabbit and a deer species with its one unique qualities and gifts. According to a spirit animals blog i read once upon a time I remember it being said that a Jackalope is extremely shay unless approached gently, can be rather aggressive and unpridctable. Legends in the old west said that when cowboys gathered at night by the campfires and sung that often you could hear jackalopes singing back to them for they could mimick many animals including the human voice. It was said that Jackolopes became especially vocal before thunderstorms. Perhaps that is because the legends also say that they only matr when lightning flashes. And the best wat to lure a Jackalope to you is whiskey of course. Believe what you wish to believe for i believe in magic and fairies, i believe trees and flowers can communicate with us if only we listen, so why not believe there is Rabbits with the horns of an antelope somewhere in thus magic univurse we live in. With that being said here are a few of my favorite pictures i found tonight.






What one do you feel captured the Jackalope best? Leave a comment!!

Make every day a touch magical

I want my son to grow up believing the world is a magical place, yes there is sadness and troubles in the world but there can also be a sprinkle of magic in this world too. The simplest of things can be magical ig only we let them todag we had a magical cup of chocolate milk together. And what was the true magic of it all the light in my baby's eyes as he saw that cup topped with spray wripped cream and star sprinkles and tge giggles as we licked off milk-stashes. Magic we are the creators of Magic.

Challenging myself

So here we go. This summer i spent most if my time infront of a tv on a couch. I ate only when Randy was home to eat and even tho i loved being able to swim i stopped after my hair decided that is was going to die and have to be chopped up to my ears. For those of you that do not know i take pride in having somewhat long beautiful hair and well i felt like that was the prettiest part of me.

so suddenly i did not feel like going out any more. Well then about 2 weeks ago i went to the Dr. Due to some changes in my health like feeling tired and well i will be blunt no peirod and yet no pregnancy. ( by the way they gave me meds and now i am just waiting dor harmones to level out again) And when they put me on a scale my eyes nearly popped out. I was 20 pounds from being the wieght I used to say " Well at least i am no where near ___ pounds" Its time for me to do something about it! I cant afford those fancy things people are selling all over Facebook so i guess its time for me to come up with sometging my self, like just getting up qnd moving. It is my favorite time of the year so this is it. First thing i have started doing is at least 30 min of Wii fit on the tv. You see I can be awful lazy so i get to come up with a lazy proof plan. After some research here is what i have come up with that may be just the ticket to a healthier me .
1. Take one step at a time dont try to change every thing at once. 
2. Wii fit has these wonderfull exercising games you can do as you watch your favorite halloween movies!!
3. Make it fun.
4. Make it like you are treating your self not depriving your self. I like alot of healthy snacks so when i have been going shopping i find a healthly snack that i love so its like a treat in its self and i get excited about it.
4. Get your family involved! 
5. Get up more. Just move more.
6. Wake up earlier so that you feel more refeshed and there is more time in thr day for you to move.
6. Eat many small meals durung the day dont let your self get super hungery that way you dont stuff your self when you do eat. 
7. Document it! Share your challenge make it known. One you will have others supporting you, two there is abit of presure in keeping it up when you post it.
8. Most important!! Feed your soul uplifting and loving things for example i found I poem i wrote for my self after my son was born that i will share at the end of this post.

So those are my tips that i feel will work for me! 

So here I am 

I love that my little man got in on the pic taking!


My body
By Bellah
My feet are rough and scared for they have kissed the earth. 
My tummy is slightly saggy and looks like a watermelon for it has held an angel. 
My hands are scared and dry for they have brought blessings to others. 
My hips are wide for they are made to hold a child as I work. 
My butt is large for it is made to sit long hours in meditation with out the pain of sitting on my tail bone. 
I have small bags under my eyes for I am blessed that my baby lives and grows healthy. 
My hair is a mess for I spent the morning snuggling with my son. 
My nails are bit for I worried over some one I loved. 
My body may be sore , out of shape ( what ever that may mean) scared, but that is the beauty of it, for I have lived! 

I love my body
I love all that it gives to me
I love my good health
I love the reminders each marking my body gives me
I love being me

The start

A friend of mine asked me if i still blogged after all these years of nit blogging, and it made me realize that i reached some one. It may have not been in an earth shattering way but if I just made one person smile with my blog i guess that is enough. So blogging has changed alot since i blogged, first off i can blog from my phone and Ipad. One thing that has not changed is that I still do not know what i want to blog about. Meaning i do not have one thing that I want to write about, there is just so much to write about in this world. So i know that i an not a beauty blogger,  heavens no i barely know how to brush my hair and put on a thin layer of make up. I am not a housekeeping blogger, haha my house looks like a tornado blew through it and 59.5% of it is my mess! ( only 40.5% is my sons and loves) haha. I am not a cooking blogger, tho i do love to cook as long ad i dont have to clean up after. I could be a mom blogger if all that requires is being a mom, but so i know what i am doing as a mom? Nope i make it up as I go. Perhaps i am a life blogger, ya 99% of the things i write about are life things so yeah i guess i am a Life blogger. I will blog feelings, how to's, hacks, resipies, quotes, pictures, stories, and odds and ends. And if you like what you read keep reading, and if you dont like what you dont, well either stick around to find something you do like or stip reading.
So here we go back to blogging...
