My Princess

Well ladies and gentleman today was the first day of school. I want to start off by saying how upset I am with the school district for starting school so blasted early this year. I am sure my voice really matters to them. Tam & Sam went and got their haircuts on Saturday so they would look so cute for school. They both look adorable!
Sammy had to start her 2nd grade year at a brand new school. She doesn't know anyone, and for that matter neither do I. We won't be moving til next weekend, but we didn't want to move her. This is her 4th school already. Her teacher is great, and she was very excited to go....up until this morning.....

This is the smiley face at breakfast. She was so nervous!!! She didn't sleep at all last night. When she woke up she told me she didn't feel well. I of course thought it was because she was anxious. She didn't eat anything. I gave her some medicine to pease her so to speak. By the time we got to school this was her happy face.....
Grandpa picked her up from school, and the teacher told him that she let her sleep for 30 minutes at school today. She gets home and is burning up with a fever. I am such a good mom...I don't even know when my child really is sick. She just had the flu last weekend, I didn't think she was going to get it again. Poor thing. I am so proud of her though. She had a great day at school and met lots of new friends. She said she is in boy jail at her desk though. Surrounded by boys....Yucky....

I know this has nothing to with the rest of this post, but while my family was in CA we had family photos taken. There are seven kids in my family. We are all huge football fans, well Trish isn't, but she played along anyway. We each have a different favorite team so we decided to wear our football jerseys. I think they turned out really cute. Here is just me and my awesome children, and then the entire group of 22, which will soon be 23...pictures outdate so quickly!!!


We probably should have thrown a football in there somewhere...better luck next time!!!

Just an update

I have been so busy lately! In fact I am updating you on my blackberry. Since I have no patience this will be brief.

My new job is amazing! I don't think I have ever been so happy at a job. I am hiring an admin if anyone knows of someone. Had to throw that out there sorry.

I am moving to AF on September 1. Mike found the most perfect townhome.it has a big basement & our kids will love spending more time together. Sammy & E will both start at new schools on Monday and they are very excited.

Still not going out or dating anyone, but it has started to cross my mind. Maybe one day I will get out there. I miss eveyone a ton! I feel so out of the loop!

Need a Light?

I have some pictures from the Payson fire last night. These were taken from my yard. I say that like I live in Spring Lake, but pretty much we all know that I do. It was very scary and a lot of homes were evacuated, but at the same time nature is so beautiful. Just thought I would share some with you. The first one was taken at about 9, and the third one about 9:45, it was crazy how fast it was growing.
