A fun and exciting morning

Every morning we wake up and get ready for school. This week, Wednesday was picture day. Emme and MJ were excited. They got up did there chores, got ready for school and then made lunch. After I did my morning workout I was getting ready myself. I had a few extra minutes so I sat at my computer trying to get ahead of the game for the day. I overheard Emme amd MJ singing, for a long time I might add. It was so cute so I had to get my new video camera a try. Heres a clip. Enjoy. I think we might have the next future American Idols here..... I guess it wont upload. I'll have to post another time.

So much to do So little time.

Well with the kids off to school its has been great. Sometimes a little too quiet in the house. I wish I had a little more time. I envy all you mothers out there who sit and eat bonbon's. (LOL) Don't you wish.
So While Mark was gone last week hunting I had some alone time (somewhat I still had the kids) but you know what I mean. I realized that I have really let myself go. Not only physically but sometimes mentally too. I'm sure you know what that means.
I feel as if I need to start my life over. Go back to the basics. But how. I have so much I want to do and have so little time to do it in and I am running out of steam.
So this is what I have decided to do.

Get back to reading my scriptures daily: On BYU.EDU they have in the independent study gospel doctrine classes. I want to know more details about the church. It is a free class and I can work on it in my own free time.

Exercise daily and eat healthy: The exercising is easily. I get up in the Mornings and go down to the fitness room here at home. The eating thing is a little more challenging since it seems like I eat to make me feel better but yet it doesn't because I keep getting fatter and fatter!! ygh. So I am going to eat slow and drink lots and lots of water.

Have me time: I had Mark bring my sewing boxes up to the house. In that box I am going to finish all my UFO (un finished objects) crafts. Here's is one that I have just finished. I probably got it about 10 years ago with Lorena. It was a fun short project but I now have a sense of accomplishment.


So there it is. The question is can I fit it all in between Work, cleaning house, making diners ect... ect... You Bet!
Have a great Day!!

Off to School we Go!!


How cute they are so eager to get to school. Mj and Emme Love school. They have been fortunate to have the same class together this year. Alot of teachers mistake them for twins. I don't think they mind too much.
The School is brand spankin' new. Just opened two weeks before school started.

The Kids love the open soccer field and have made lots of new friends. Look at the view. It is nice. You can see for miles and has a view of the Columbia River. I love it here. Since we have been here we have had only 3 days where it sprinkled and 2 days where we had thunder storms for only a couple hours. The kids get to even wear shorts.
So during the day I get to sit around and be lazy. Eat bonbons...? I wish. No our day starts at dawn and goes to dusk. Then we are lucky enough to do it again.

I am sooo excited!!!

So this weekend my Brother Jason his wife Dana and Jayden, Brayley and Ansen came to Richland to visit with me. While they were here Dana told me that I needed to Blog more, which I agreed ~ and now that I can remember my password, I can. I still wasn't excited enough so she dragged me to Costco. With my arm in intense pain from her tight grip she insisted I had to buy a digital camera. She said that blogging would be alot of fun with a camera. So I did. I didn't want to get on her bad side. (all Hell would brake loose!!) lol. So I am Soooo Excited.
Here is my first blog with my new camera.
I think pretty much the pictures speak for themselves....Don't You??
