Spring in Moab!

I am beginning to believe that Spring does in fact exist! The weather has been a roller coaster ride this year, warm then rain, warm then snow, warm then wind.....well you get the idea. I am actually loving the rain we are getting this week, Mat and I planted grass seed in our back yard on Sunday so the rain means I don't have to water =)
Things have been crazy busy for myself, the Rodeo is only two short weeks away! OMG!! Basically I am a ball of stress and it isn't fun for anyone involved. To top it off we have a strain of horse herpes going around and we might have to cancel it! So that adds to the freak out factor just a tad. But hopefully it all blows over (ya right) and the show will go on. =)
Mat has been working a way on the yard keeping the weeds at bay. Yard projects are super expensive so it will probably take us forever before we are able to afford the things that we want to do.
Aubrey is growing like CRAZY! She gets smarter and smarter everyday. She does seriously the funniest things. I use to be sad that I didn't have any of those really funny "look where/how i fell asleep" pictures but she is making up for that.Car Show and Jeep Safari were both very mild this year. Mat and I didn't go up to Potato Salad at all, not even once! Car Show Cyndie and I went and walked around the Park for like an hour and the coolest thing I seen wasn't even entered in the show! I totally want Mat to make me one.
Isn't it SWEET!?
Mother's Day was nice. We went out to Red Cliffs Lodge Sunday Brunch for the second year in a row. We totally missed the mark and went at the wrong time. However, it was still a ton of fun and very enjoyable. Tosha slept instead of coming with us =( she isn't getting out of it next year I won't let her!This was our view while we ate. Mat complained that it was HOT but I say it was totally worth it.
This past Saturday Mat and I went to the Elk Foundation Banquet. It was a lot of fun as it always is. My mom won a .223, Shawn walked away with an AMAZING .347 pistol (so jealous), and my dad bought Aubs the most adorable set of chairs. Donnie and Cyndie's house arrived this week! So exciting for them, hopefully we will be having a house warming party in the next few weeks. =)Here are a few random photos from the past few weeks.

Happy Easter!!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Easter. The weather in Moab is less then delightful, we hunted eggs in the rain this morning. Parents=not impressed, kids=not a care in the world as long as they found the most eggs. The 'Easter Bunny' hid approximately 35 eggs, the girls only found 24, so moral of the story......DOGS EAT HARD BOILED EGGS!! I'd say they scarfed down more eggs then they probably should have. =)
We have some friends living with us while they put a new house on their property. So things have been pretty crazy, busy and quite an adventure around this Zufelt home.
Aubrey is absolutely in heaven having a live in play mate. (Insert your personal opinion that it is time for Mathew and I to have another child here.) It has been pretty nice having them here, Aubs has a friend to entertain her and I have help with dishes and trash duty =). And the best part is good company!
Here is a recap of the past month (or two)...
Being goofy @ City Market.
Riding in the plane @ Mesa Mall.
Climbing the pole outside of Zax.
Modeling her new 'Stunna Shades'!

Swinging @ the City Park.

Out riding with the Larrabee family!
Mom's certificate from work. Yay me!
Eating cake for Kodi Ann's 1st Birthday!
This is me paying entirely TO MUCH for gas!!
Hope everyone else is having as fun a Spring as we are, now if the snow would just melt and we could go up to the mountains.

Fun and exciting times...

We have been doing a lot of things around here lately.
Valentine's Day was nice, we celebrated on Sunday and I made heart shaped pancakes. Aubrey was suppose to help me make cookies and cupcakes but decided that hanging out with dad was more fun.
We took Aubs out to shoot her gun for the first time. She absolutely LOVED it! I thought she might be a little scared since loud noises scare her but nope she didn't have a problem at all. In fact she cried when we told her she was done and couldn't shoot any more. Thanks PAPA JAMES she loves her pink rifle. Aubrey went with me to get my nails done and in true Diva fashion she had to have hers painted as well.We stopped by 4-H the other night so Aubs could ride G-ma's horse. She was not having it at all when we first put her on the horse but after just a few minutes you couldn't get her off!Lately, this is how Aubrey's bed looks when we put her down. Good thing she got a big girl bed for Christmas because I'm not sure they all would have fit in the old one.Candis and I won the drawing for Linkin Park Tickets! We thought it would be fun to take our hubby's but Mat wouldn't go so I had my girlfriend go with me. We had so much fun!Aubrey had several "play dates" the last month. She loves Hunter, he is one day younger then her and they are so cute together! She had a ton of fun when Kelby got to come over for a few hours and play the Wii with her.Aubrey LOVES money! She thinks it is so much fun to put change into the big change jar we have, and sometimes is quite mischievous about it. We also opened her a savings account at the bank.Today was the Canyonlands Half Marathon and Five Mile Run, I volunteered to help out. It was a lot of fun! I can't believe how much determination that some people have! Good job to all the runners you guys are AMAZING!!!!!!!!
