Where our Families At These Days

I have decided that our family should start our own blog, so here goes. I love looking at my friends blogs, but just haven't taken the time to start our own. Our family is doing great and so very happy. Ty is 11 months old now and getting so big. I can't believe that he will be 1 yrs. old next month...where has the year gone? Ty has brought so much joy into our lives and has made each day so much fun for his mommy and daddy. We play and laugh a lot around the Jensen home. Ty is currently getting into anything and everything. He loves to play in the cupboards with all of the tupperware. Whenever mommy opens the dishwasher he is there in a split second...no joke! It is amazing to watch. Ty got his first tooth at 4 months old and I swear the boy hasn't stopped since that time. He is currently working on his "I" teeth and his left top and bottom molars. Life has been so joyous throughout these past three teeth! Ty is also really good at walking along the furniture and his toys. We are trying to teach him to walk, but he gets so excited that he just falls down. He is getting the hang of it and I am sure he will be walking in no time. As you can tell...we LOVE our Ty and think he's about the greatest little boy in the world.

Josh and I are still as boring as ever. Josh is busy with work and should start working in Las Vegas again in the next couple of weeks (or so we hope). He will be working on the job in Vegas for about 6 months and that will be nice. Right now he is working about 5 min. from our home and that has been great. I get to see him at lunch and we don't have to get up near as early in the mornings. As you all know my husband is an avid hunter. He was excited to get a deer the first day of the season and will leave today to try and go get an antelope. He always gets excited when hunting season rolls around. I just was happy that he didn't drag it out this year.

I also got a deer tag this year, but I was not successful. I only had about 5 days to try and get one and all I seemed to find were does...so I guess we will try again. I am not an avid hunter like my husband, so sitting in a bush or tree doesn't excite me, so I give up really fast. Plus I am terrified of snakes, so tromping around in the hot desert where we have rattlesnakes isn't something I enjoy doing. However, I do keep very busy with my church callings, trying to keep my house in order, and taking care of my son and husband. These past few months have been great as we have had a lot of fun. Ty and I stayed with my sister Carrie in California for a good 3 weeks and that was so fun. When I got home the grandparents watched Ty for 5 days while Josh and I got to go white water rafting in Oregon with his bosses. We had a great time, but we did miss Ty. We feel very blessed and have been able to do a lot of fun things. We hope that each of you will enjoy the pictures and updates on our family. I will try and keep the future ones a little shorter. Love you all
