Plans quickly changing

I am leaving next week for a family reunion in Utah.  The kids have been asking to go to Lagoon for a while and I thought we could to the reunion a day early and spend that day at Lagoon.  But after some questions to my mom's group (which I am very glad I did) I found out the new ride which was one of the main reasons the kids wanted to go is not up and running yet.  So our plan is back to me leaving Monday and home Friday in time for work.  I know where we are staying Monday night but Thursday night will be a see how far I can drive and then stop for a hotel.  Which I hate doing it gives me anxiety and I will have the kids.  So we will see how it goes. 

I think we may end up at Lagoon when Lee is on his bike trip but right now it is a wait and see.  I need another adult and my mom isn't sure she can go.  We have considered waiting until Lee can join us

We are heading camping on Friday which I am slightly nervous about.  Jake is planning the meals and will need to help with a few other things to earn a scout badge.  He only has six more months until his birthday so we are pushing him to get a lot done this summer before school starts back up. 

I am not sure what I was thinking planning on going camping and coming home for a day to do laundry before we head out for week.  At least I don't work Sunday.  Just Saturday.  If camping goes well we are going to do it again in two weeks.  Kids are excited.  It is way cheaper then a hotel and it is forced family time with no TV and no iphone or ipad.  Just dirt lots of dirt.

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...
