Busy, Busy, Busy

Goodness, life has been busy! Lance is still working out of Gallup. He has been coming home more frequent lately to visit but we are going to have to put an end to that. Its so tempting to have him drive home but the gas is killing our budget. School is out and Sari has been having tons of fun. :) She started swim lessons this week, along with Boston. They both have loved it so much. Boston was telling me yesterday how Awesome it is! We were getting a great laugh at how excited he was as he was shivering to death. He is such a cute good boy with a sweet spirit! I moved my spin class from evenings to mornings for the summer. I teach now at 8:30 in the morn and so loving it! Staish hangs out with the Turly's during class when they are home and available and she loves them to death! :) When they are out of town, I get a sitter or the Connells help me out. They have been great! Co-ed softball has started. I love it tons. Its so much fun. Last year I played for Patten and Green and had a great time- Great bunch of people. But this year, I really wanted to play with my brother and his wife. It's been fun. Pher is hilarious and we have been having a great time! I love my family! And thank-ful for my great friends. :)

Silly Staish

After church last Sunday, Staisha came down the stairs with her daddy's black church socks on and his church shoes! It was so funny! What a stylish girl!

Reading Restaurant

Last week, Sari's 1st grade class did a Reading Restaurant. She has been talking about it for a long time. Lance drove home that day so he can be there. She was so excited! It was really neat. The kids pretended that they were waiters and waitresses. They showed us menus with what they will be reading to us and read us some books. And they sang and danced. For dessert, we had cake and punch. So much fun!!!!


They look so professional!


I cant believe how tall Sari has gotten this year!


Doing one of her many singing and dancing!

I Have a Leak!!!!!

UGH! I have a leak. Why do these things always happen when the hubby is gone! Plus he is locked to a work train in Grants for a few days. :( I barely noticed it this morn after I mopped( ha ha I know- shocker isn't it!) I'm only blogging about it because this is my adult contact! jk but seriously, with Lance gone, I do spend more time on the computer when I have tons of other things I should be doing ;) Any how, now I have to figure out whats going on. I am thinking its coming from the kids bathroom. Maybe the bathtub. Wish me luck! Oh i wish Lance were home!

Boston's 5th Bday!

On April 19, we celebrated Boston's 5th birthday! He was super excited! He wanted a Nintendo DS cake, so I got online and googled it and found some great ideas. It was tons of fun. Susie came over after work and decorated it with me. It turned out cute and Boston loved it. We had a dinner on his bday. And LeAnn took these great shots for me. Thanks LeAnn. :) Boston was so excited to turn 5. We told him that now since he is 5, he has to eat the crusts on his sandwiches. It seems to be working. He is such a good boy and I love him to death. I couldn't ask for a better son. I love you Boston! I'm going to miss him when he goes to Kindergarten next year.



Blowing out his candles with a little help from his little sis!

Silly Staish

Staisha did the funniest thing this morn! I was lounging watching tv and Staisha walks in the tv room. She is all dressed with Sari's dance bag over her shoulder and Sari's ballerina slippers on. She says to me I love You! and Give me a kiss. I give her kisses and I say I love you too. Then she walks away. I start thinking hmm what is she up to? So I say "Staisha, where are you going.?" She says( all innocently) "I'm going Bye Bye" lol I jump off the couch and stop her before she goes out the front door. oh it was hilarious!

Look what lemon almost caught!

A little creature has been making holes in my backyard! I'm thinking and hoping this is the culprit. Today Lance and I were upstairs, when the kids came up saying mom, lemon has a mouse behind the computer! When we came downstairs, we found lemon by the computer with this little guy. Yay! lemon ( oh Lemon is my cat) had it cornered and kept the thing from running amuck in my house. Luckily Lance was home today from Gallup and we caught it and put it in the pail. I didn't want Lance to kill it so he took it out far into the desert. What is this called? and I so hope we caught the rodent making holes in my yard. :)

Update on cheeto going up nose post!

So I really thought I was going crazy. I could not for the life of me remember taking pics of Staisha sticking Cheetos up her nose. I had one of my babysitters over the other night and showed her my blog with Staish in it. She started laughing and said "Hey, I took those pictures. I couldn't believe she was posing for me. So I took the shot!" I was laughing so hard! I told her great shots and I was so relieved that I wasn't losing my mind and sanity!

Staish is too Silly

I was going through my pictures on my phone and I saw these and just started busting up laughing! The sad thing is is that I don't even remember taking them. Anywho, I thought I would share them with ya! I hope everyone gets a great laugh like I did! lol


oo oo almost there!


Score! I got it! :)

Lance is going Bye-Bye today

Lance has been working out of Gallup for the past couple of weeks. Split a hotel room with Josh once, has slept in his truck and drives home. It is getting quite pricey driving back and forth so we have finally broke down and rented a trailor for Lance to stay in. Its all hooked up and he is ready to go. We are sad that he has to live 2 hours away but on the other hand, we feel lucky, he could be much farther away. I keep telling him he is lucky. Its like he is going camping! lol We will miss him and hopefully this doesn't last too long. Hurry up ecomony and kick in gear! If it gets worse and he gets kicked out of Gallup, he will head to Gillette, Wy. We are praying things get better! For all the separated families! :(

Staish on the stairs

Around a month ago, (i know, my bad, I'm barely posting about it) I put Staish to bed and went downstairs. After a bit, I thought I better go upstairs and check on her. This is what I found! lol lol lol I immediately put her in her room to bed. It would have been awful if she rolled down the stairs while sleeping. I thought I would share this with you all! :) Sorry pics are not that great. Still no camera. This came from my cell phone.

Enrichment

During the end of last year, I finally got out of primary. Yay! and got called as Enrichment Leader. Which I am loving. Corri Havlicek is in charge and she does great. This Tues., we are putting together 72 hour kits. Im so excited. I have been wanting to do these but just didnt and couldn't bring myself to start. So tomorrow, Corri and I are headed to Flag to get the stuff at Sam's. I'm excited to go to get out of town and a break from the kiddos is always nice. Yay for 72 hour Kits!

Its been busy!

Wow I cant believe its been since Dec since my last post. We had a fun Christmas and New year. We really enjoyed it with the kids. After the first of the year, Lance got bumped out of Winslow. Our options were for him to go to Gallup and work. Yuck. so we decided to take vacation time and go to Idaho. We had a great time seeing family! It was so much fun. We surprised Lance's parents and that was hilarious! We were so happy to see them and my parents. On our way home, we stopped in Brigham City and stayed the night with my sister. I was so glad to see her and her family. Her three kids had all grown up. We were sad but said goodbye the next day. Oh yeah! While on Vacation, they added jobs to Winslow. So when we got back, Lance was able to stay in town. We felt so blessed! :) We will see with time how the whole job thing goes. Stinken economy! lol
