According to Joynn, it is time to update the blog so I guess I better. I have been very busy lately and that is a great thing. Garrett is keeping me busy with football and scouts (which he gets his Bear tonight) and I also started a new job. I work two days out of the week and I get to be home when the kids are here after school. I deal with the magazines that come in new every week to the stores and send the old ones back. Easy and fun. Well that was a briefing on my busy life now I am going to post the tag.
8 Things I am looking forward to:
1. Gavyn getting baptized in August.
2. The summer! I love the summer with the kids home.
3. BBQ's. We love to BBQ with friends and family all summer long.
4. Making Gavyn's Diabetes easier for him.
5. Garrett getting a better teacher next year for school.
6. Getting to the temple with Jolynn.
7. Having a better relationship with my hubby. We could all strive for this right?!
8. Having a Forever Family!

1. Got the kids ready and out the door for school.
2. Went to the Gym.
3. Layed out by the pool and enjoyed the weather.

8 Things I wish I could do:
1. Be a better cook.
2. Be a hairdresser.

This has to be one of my favorite holidays. It brings such a great spirit around everybody, even though it was one heck of a busy weekend! It just seemed like such a go go go kind if thing that it was nice to just chill on Sunday!
The lesson at Church was an awesome one! It was Living With Others In Peace and Harmony. It is something that we all strive to do in our everyday lives but something that I have been trying to do for a awhile now. I just have found that since having almost lost my child that life is too short to sweat out the little things. Don't hold grudges and don't look for the bad things in and people. This is something everyone goes through but to hear it in the Lords view and to look at the purity in him and how he didn't do or say anything bad to others and he suffered for this. People judged him and talked horribly of him and in the end they sacrificed him for this. He is the ultimate example of who we all need to strive to be like and know that there is good in all and not to look for the bad.

Thank you everyone for your support but in the end it was just me trying to just catch a break now and then. I wouldn't ditch the blog thing because too many memories would be erased and it is just too much to just ditch it. Besides how else is anyone supposed to keep in touch with everyone right?!
Anyways we have been really busy with Garrett's football games and practices. He is really doing well and the discipline is great for him. Win or loose the coach supports them all. We all just had parent teacher conferences and I am pleased to say they are all doing great in school too.
Not too much else to post. Sorry so brief but will be back with more stuff later!
