Weekend Part 1

We were going to go to California this weekend since the kids were out of school Thursday and Friday and I am off Monday.  But planned changed and due to things out of our control we stated home and had a fun time at home.  Wednesday the kids had a sleep over at their grandparent's while Lee and I went and stayed at a bed and breakfast.  I would stay at one again and there are family friendly ones. 
Thursday we took the kids on a tour of the Idaho State Capitol they have been asking to go for a while.  The tour took three times longer then we thought it would.  Then we went to Donnie Macs which is a trailer park diner.  I would never eat there again but the kids had a blast.  Today we did some major cleaning and went to Idaho State Police because Lee needed to do something so the kids and wander around the Idaho State Police Memorial.  It was a really great place to wander.  Right up until Jake slipped in the mud.  We then went to Home Depot and bought so hardware that we have been needing for a few months. 

Now Jake is reading Victoria and Amaya a good night story.  I am hoping the girls go to bed shortly but I am having my doubts.  Tomorrow is soccer and a tour of the historical museum and maybe the old pen.   It all depends on when the kids get tired of walking around.

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...

It has been a week

Here is how the week went Monday: OUr 25th anniversary. I was sick. We went and tried a Cuban restrant not as good as the food we had in Miami but it was good. We love trying new local places. It ended in tears. I won't go into all the details but I am relaizing that this is not the marriage I want. I am open about what I need and we will go from there. Luke started wrestling. Tuesday: End of the year banquent for Luke and Andrew. Luke recevied the "Most Improved" Awared. Here is the thing about that. His coach talked about how during summer practice he wouldn't even run 100 yeards. He would just stop. At some point after the first meet it clicked and he just ran and did what he needed to do. He went up adn accepted the award with such confidence. Wednesday: Both boys had activities. Andrew had stayed home from school due to not felling wel. My guess is he just needed a rest. He was feeling up for going and making pizzas at the Bishop's hous...
