Lacey Malone And Family.: A Post With Pictures. *Finally*

The Malones. Aren't we cute?!

We even have a chalk drawing of our family. How many people can say that???

Our little family consists of 4 people, Of course there is Ammon and I, The next is Rykert, he is 4 years old, and growing every day!!!

He is so energetic and fun, he says the cutest things, He was diagnosed with DMD This year, and every time we ask him if his legs hurt, or if he is sick, he just responds with a big smile on his face and says "no, im just happy". visit rykerts website to learn more about DMD www.runforry.com He is so sweet, and we love him more than anyone could ever imagine!!!

Next after ry is lilly!! She is our little DIVA. She loves to wear mama lacey's shoes and sunglasses, and to have her hair done by aunt torey. She Loves to help her "friend" rykert, and loves to walk with attitude. *If you ever meet her, ask her to walk with attitude, she'll show you* Lilly always brings a smile to peoples faces, she is so friendly, and loves to hold hands. She has the cutest personality and lights up every room she comes in. We all like to call her silly lilly, because she is so goofy, she loves chocolate milk, and candy *she prefers the messiest kinds of candy*. Life without lilly would be so serious and boring, we love our little girl, and all the joy she brings us!!!

Lilly and rykert have the greatest friendship i have ever seen between siblings. of course they have there moments where they have to hit and kick, and in rykerts case, pull his sisters hair, but over all, they don't even like to be apart from each other for more than 5 min. Lilly has just started calling rykert her friend, not her brother. i have loved seeing her befriend ry, and help him when he struggles on the stairs, reaching something in the car, and just helping translate his language sometimes. she loves ry so much, and im so glad they have each other and love each other as much as they do.

I have never seen a father love his kids like ammon loves his. These kids are his world, and if it weren't for them, i think he wouldn't be alive right now. He would give the world for them, miss as much work, cancel plans, and spend as much money as needed for these kids. they have saved his life, more than once. and i am so grateful that those kids will have a good father in there life that will do anything for them, and love them no matter what.

I love these children like they were my own! I have shared so many new experiences with them, and they have taught me so much! Mostly they have taught me skills i need to have in life. Patience. Anyone who knows me knows i have just about no patience for ANYTHING. Since i have become a step mom, these kids have taught me patience, i still have a long ways to go, but im getting there. Just ask ammon, i have come a long way from where i firs twas when i met our kids. They have also taught me to cherish each and every moment i have with the ones i love.
Treat every moment like it was my last, and to take allot of pictures along the way. I love these kids so much, through the good times and the bad, poopy diapers, messy faces, and LONG sleepless nights. I love you Rykert and Lilly, and i feel so privileged to be your step mom.

Ammon And Lacey. We met on Myspace/facebook, about 2 years ago. It took ammon a year to finally convince me to hang out with him! I can't believe i waited a whole year to meet the man of my dreams!!! But we finally met, and hung out for the first time. Since that day we have been with each other every single day. Anyone who knows me(lacey) before i met ammon knows i was not interested in marriage, or even serious dating, I have had a bad history of being hurt by men, and was not interested in getting my heart broken once again. Something was different about ammon though, from the first time i met him, i knew he was the one. The way he looked at me, and smiled at me, i knew he liked me for who i was. Now, the first time we met, he told me he liked to cook!! Im a pretty crafty person, and i really like ammon, so i decided i would make him an apron. I felt like maybe he would think i was crazy for making him something so random, only after the first time we had met! I was so wrong, he told me later, that that was when he knew he loved me. We have been through some really hard times, and SO MANY good times!!! I have grown up so much, and learned so many important essential life lessons. I am married to the love of my life, and i wouldn't change ANYTHING. 122% is our little saying, we love each other not just 100%, but 122%. *don't ask me how the number came about, that's just how it happened* :) I love my life, and my family. We are so happy, and wouldn't change how we live our lives.

Ammon proposed to me on valentines day, February, 14, 2010. We got married on July,2,2010.

Our wedding was so beautiful!!! We had such a great photographer who was so nice and soooo good at what she does! Thank you abby! Our colors were Black, white, and the damask print. *google it if you don't know what that is* My family was not so supportive at first, but as they got to know ammon more, and saw how much i loved him and how happy he made me, they opened there hearts to him, and learned to love him almost as much as i did. The wedding planning was easier than i thought it would be. my family helped out SO much! They were all so kind to help me, and my good friend shelby did so much to help as well. im so grateful for all those people who helped ammon and i plan the wedding.

This was my moms favorite picture :)

Jaxon my little brother, and Rykert have always had a special little bond. Ever since jaxon became an uncle to ry, they have created this amazing bond/friendship. Jaxon loves ry so much, and ry loves Uncle jaxon just as much. Jaxon has a way of dealing with ry and his crazy behavior he has sometimes. He can get ry to calm down, to be nice, and to be quiet in church. Im so glad they both have each other and can share allot of tender moments.

At the wedding Ammon and I ate cake!! YUMMY!! We made a deal before the wedding that we would keep it clean, and feed each other nicely with the cake.

My mom surprised us with the cake, i had no idea what it looked like, and when i saw it, i almost cried!!! I loved it so much! Thank you mom!!! Not only did it look good, it tasted amazing!

Rykert can be a piece of work sometimes. lol the only way we cold get him to walk down the isle quietly, was to give him a cookie. He Had cookie all over his face for the ceremony!!!

Lilly loved my dress!!! She would call it mama laceys princess dress. I think she liked the beading on the top part.... She couldn't stop touching it, which made for some awkward moments throughout the night.
