The end is near

It has been a long week.  Super long.  On Monday and Tuesday the kids and I went to Utah.  Saw the new Ogden temple which was amazing and disappointing all at the same time, swam in the hotel pool and slept in the most comfy bed other.  Then on Tuesday we went to temple square.  Kids had a great time learning about the temple they loved the model and statue of Christ.  But....Tuesday morning around 1:00 am Andrew woke up running a fever and has been miserable since.  He is way better then he was Tuesday and Wednesday but is still a super grouch which is unlike Andrew. But he is near the end of the sickness.Whatever it was.  Last night he slept 14 hours.

The end of summer is near.  One more week.  One week from tomorrow night we will be putting the final touches on back to school stuff.  I am sad.  Sad we didn't do enough this summer, sad that they are going back, sad because I am going to miss them.  Sad that no matter how much I pray about it homeschooling isn't for us.

The end of my stay at home days are coming to an end.  On Monday I will have an official offer from a local hospital. I start September 8th. After three interviews with different people every time they must have liked me because they said I had the job but due to some dumb thing they can not give an offer until Monday.  I am so thrilled about this job.  I truly believe that God has been preparing me for this moment for five years.  There are too many decisions that were made that took me to this exact spot this exact job that makes me know beyond a doubt that I was guided.  Even though at the time it didn't make any sense. 

The end of the no kid activity summer is over.  We didn't even do swimming lessons which were originally  part of the plan.  Dance starts Tuesday and then Monday starts soccer. Then after soccer is over we will start  swimming lessons.  I think it is super important for Victoria more then Jake but I will sign them both up.

The end of Luke's babiness is coming to an end.  He is trying to pull himself up and stand.  He is way more ambitious then our other kids.  Even Jake who was on super speed.  It is sad. I want to keep him little.  He is the last and I don't want him to grow up.  EVER!!!

The beginning is here.  Lee's baby sister had a baby.  Of all of his siblings who had a baby this year it is the only girl.  Wonder how that will play out in a few years.  I am excited and nervous for her all at the same time. 

The pics of the summer should be up soon/  Maybe one night when Lee is gone.  bike trip is in 12 days and I am really stressed about it.  I always worry but this one is different way different.  I am debating going to Kamiah for Labor Day weekend.  Pros and Cons of going and staying. 

I guess is the all the ends for now.

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...

Time to dust this off

L:ong story short I came across something that made we want to add back to this. Not sure why but hwere we go. Life is constantly chaning and I feel so mnuch surround bu death lately. Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...

LOCK DOWN

The governor came out on Wednesday and ordered a lock down.  It seems like a good idea and will not changed our lives all that much.  We did decided that we would only go to the grocery store once a week we went last Friday.  We will go tomorrow which means it will be nine days.  Kids haven't been in a store in weeks.  Lots of time in the garden and working on yard projects.  It has been good and bad.  More family time and less running around.  But lack of structure over the past two weeks has been tough.  Tomorrow would be the day the kids start back to school.  It is likely they won't be going back at all this year.  Victoria will be the most effected.  No eighth grade graduation likely   The school could decide to bring back just eighth and 12th graders.  Either way they are all out until 4/20.  "distance learning" will start for the kids on 4/13.  Which is another reason I think they will end the schoo...
