Baby William is here!

Ty and Kimie called my mom this morning, and their baby arrived at about 8:30 our time! Kimie and William are doing great! William Brady Hataba Ellison weighed 7lb and is 17 inches long! We are so excited to have him here! Ty said they were going to try to have pics on the blog later today! This is my first niece or nephew that I'll get to see through the beginning. I missed out on a lot with Ricardo, and I don't want to miss out with this nephew! I'm so excited!

It's under $3!!!

FINALLY!!! Fuel is under $3 again! It's sad that I'm so excited about it, but I even saw fuel for $2.87 on the way home today! It's financially really been helping Caleb and I since fuel started going down so quick. We haven't felt like we've needed to use our credit cards, (which is ideal in our economy!) I just need to talk to the credit card companies and see if I can get our interest rates lowered, because apparently they are doing that! :) They would rather lower the interest rate and have people pay, then have people not pay at all! We'll see how that goes. Anyhow. I can't express how excited I am to see fuel going down to a remotely reasonable rate! It still has a way to go before I will be jumping up and down too much! :)

Way to go....to Idaho!

So, Caleb and I took Friday off work, and went to Burley to see Grandma and Grandpa B.! We hadn't been since Memorial Day last year, so it was long over due. My parents went as well. The boys finished the stop and waste for the sprinkler system, and the girls sorted pictures. We had a lot of fun sorting pictures though. We found some classic pictures, and pictures of myself that I hadn't seen in years. (Ty and I on the day he left on his mission, us with Snoopy and Charlie Brown at Knotts Berry Farm...) It really was great! We may go back for thanksgiving...we just have to see what is going on with the family!

BYU vs. New Mexico

So, yesterday Caleb and I got to go to the BYU game. It was FREEZING COLD!!! No rain or snow, but it was cold! We had a total blast! BYU definately could have played better, but it was a fun game. The last quarter made up for the first boring three. Josh (aka Man Shrek) came with us since my Cougar loving daddy couldn't because he was working. Missed you daddy!


In the 4th quarter when the game was fun!
Reminded me of high school and my older brother Ty
Aren't we tender??
The boys
He is just so dang cute!
Hope you enjoyed our pictures! My legs are still hurting from all the water I drank and the amount of times I had to do the stairs!

Ellison Healthy Lifestyle Challenge!

Ok, so we are starting our biggest loser challenge again, and Caleb and I signed up. We weren't that disciplined the first time around after the first couple of weeks. We really want to be healthy, so we are going to stick with it this time. It runs through Presidents day, and I would like to loose at least 35 lbs by then, maybe more. Caleb's goal is to loose about the same amount. We have lots of work to do, and we will get there! We will stick with it, and we will keep you all posted! :)
