BUSY!! BUSY!!! BUSY!!

Wow where does time go? It is October, the kids have been in school 2 months and it seems like we have done nothing but run. Andrea has been running cross country, playing volleyball, is senior class publicity manager and FFA reporter as well as a attendant to homecoming queen- quit the busy and fun young lady. Right now she is sick with the flu and is not liking life very much but she needs to get better fast because she placed at region cross county and also got academic all state in cross country so will be competing at state next week. Austin just got done with football where they took 2nd with a lose to Richfield (yuck) he did really good and had fun- he is doing great in school and we keep getting notes from his teachers saying so. MaKena is busy with dancing, gymnastics, and running around with her friends, its her first year in middle school and she is really enjoying it. Josh is loving preschool and is clogging!! He loves it!!! He will have surgery number 34 (i think) on November 4th - what a little tropper! Kevin is work, work, working with the flu taking over it is job security for him- but its hunting season so he is taking a day or so off which I think he needs. Well as always I have very busy but also very, very, very blessed and would not trade my crazy life for nothing- I love my family so much and I am so proud of all of them.

Did Heavenly Father Make Skunks???

The other day out of no where Josh asks me if Heavenly Father makes skunks- I told him yes and he sighs and says " I dont know why he did they just stink!!!" After I stopped laughing about that he asked me if he made Wasps. I replied Yep! and he said "I hate wasps- I'll have to ask him why he made them." Needless to say he got attacked by Wasps a couple days before that and he is not a fan! Crazy kid he is so much fun and always keeps me laughing. He makes me realize that life is to be enjoyed not just endured because he enjoys every moment even when they suck. He underwent surgery 33 two weeks ago and has a few more this year YUCK!! and he is such a tropper. School starts next week and I will have 2 middle schoolers now that is scarey, but not as scarey as the fact that Andrea will be a Senior. I am so not ready for that she is such a fun girl and really am going to miss watching her play volleyball, run, sing, etc. I guess I better enjoy it now- lesson to self life goes by fast dont blink- (kinda of like the Kenny Chesney song " Dont blink". I love my family, my life and can not think of anything that makes me happier than being a mom to 4 great kids!!!

JR.PROM and Surgery #31 Yikes!!

I cant believe our little girl is going to her Junior Prom. We had a fun day picking out her dress, there was Kathy, Kena, Kenzie, Karen, Angie and I. We went to Kathleens Bridal in Kaysville because Aunt karens sister owns a store and we were glad we did. Andy found the dress she loved it is Hot pink and black, i will put a picture on when we get the dress we had to order it in a smaller size and they will be shipping it. Anyhow it was a great day!! A little sad to think that my baby girl is that old but another milestone we will never forget!! She is going with Luke Dalton he gave her a frozen heart and had her melt it. Inside it said "Now that you have melted my heart will you go to prom with me??" So she had her body outlined like a dead person on a piece of paper she put on his floor and put caution tape across the door and candy kisses and hugs and ande mints on the floor and a sign that said "I would die to go to the prom with you, hugs and kisses, Andy" The prom is March 21st. Crazy, It seems like I just went to my junior prom with Kevin, man he is getting old!! LOL!!
Josh has surgery on his mouth again on Monday, I dont think it ever gets easier. This is minor surgery compared to the others but it is still surgery and he is still my baby. He handles it all so good that I feel stupid not to. So anyhow here we go again!!! We have to be there at 6:00 am so I am hoping we get to come home the same day. The other day he said "Mom, I awfully love you!!" I awfully love him too!!
