"12" years ago today.....

12 years ago today i recieved the best gift any person could give me. i love this young man so much. there is not a day when he is saying or doing something that makes me laugh. tuesday he has his interview with the bishop, he leaves for boys camp saturday and will be gone for a whole week. when he returns he will be ordained a deacon in our ward. i am so happy and sad at the same time.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

i'm borded

so since school has been out i have heard nothing but "i'm bored". i tell the kids to read a book, draw a picture or we can play a game. they will even have friends over and still say this. today i got tired of it. they were both (phil & des) downstairs and they were arguing and just being 12. so i had it. i put on some shorts and my tennis shoes and went downstairs and told them to do the same.
we went to the park and we ALL swung and the swings, layed out on a blanket listened to music and played phase 10. we had an amazing time. we were there for almost 3 hours and then the kids from iverson and goldfarb started coming so we decided it was time to leave. it was nice not hearing the "i'm bored" or the fighting. i even bought them ice cram for being so good. we have plans to do it again tomorrow only were bringing lunch and a different game

new house

so we finally moved into the new house and i am so excited. i love it. its the perfect size, 3 bdrm, 2 1/2 bths, and 2 car garage. i love it. the pool is about 20 yrds. from my front door and i don't have to worry about the maintenance and up keep of it and no lawn to fuss over. it is also closer to the kids school and friends (my friends too) and we are back in our old ward (treeline). i would take pictures, but my camera is somewhere buried in the sea of boxes. once i have everything where i want it i will post it all.

messy house

so we are moving again, but not far. we found a great townhouse just up the street. it is right next to the park and the best thing is that we're in the treeline ward again.

i love the new place. i had told a couple of people that if they hear of anything just to let us know. so one day my lovely friend grace was talking to another sister and mentioned that i was looking for a place and asked if she knew of anything. the sister then tells grace that she had knew of a man who was interested in renting his home but she had not seen or heard from him so she wasn't to sure. just as she was outside saying this the man she was referring to walks out to take out the trash and she asked if he was still interested in renting his home and he was.

this place is perfect for us. it has 3 room and 2 1/2 baths and a 2 car garage. we are so excited to move in, which will be on the first of may.

so now my house is in shambles with boxes everywhere and clothes, shoes and toys. i told chris i was going to do room by room and hopefully it goes better this way.
