Thanksgiving is almost here

Yeah, the kids are out of school until monday, this means I get to sleep in--that is exciting. Tomorrow we are going to the movies the girls are going to see Twilight while D and I take the other kids to see Madagascar. Then afterwards we get to look at the Christmas Tree Jubilee-a family tradition for years. I love this time of the year. Without doing the ballet i have a little more free time this weekend. We have a Christmas party friday night, and Meg is in a parade Sat night to turn on the lights in Ogden. What a fun time-and also work at Wally world this slow and non eventful weekend-just kidding, it will be crazy but fun

Congrats Meg...

One more exciting news, Meg made Winter guard for Roy High. She is very excited, she got a job also (actually two)...Way to go!!!

Thanksgiving is closer, and Christmas follows

Well, the Christmas holiday is coming up fast. Thanksgiving is next week, with Blitz on Friday. Overnights have been quiet but I know they will pick up. I am very sad because for the last 20 years (with a few missed) I have done Ballet West Nutcracker-either carpenter, or wardrobe and this year I got kicked off the list-there goes Christmas money, I am really sad, but life does go on. We have been busy as a family getting ready for this holiday, I am helping put together the Angel tree at the kids school, we are busy planning our secret pixie that we do as a family, we have the family in mind now we need to decide what to do, that is the best part of the season because it makes you forget your own problems and issues. We are in the middle of fighting custody issues with Megan's mom, what a very stressfull process. Well, I have a lot to do today. I have a friend coming over to help me finish Megan's room. It will be done in a couple of weeks, because HF needs to come visit and have a place to stay(hint, hint). My next project is to get my Christmas lights up, with D. having a broken foot it makes it hard for him, so I get the privelage. I love decorating for the Christmas season

what a week!!

Well, to start off I am very sad..my sister moved to back to Vegas and took with her my brother-in-law and niece and nephew--how could she?? My family is very sad, but we are happy for the job opportunity. I survived a week already of overnights. It was okay working, it is the getting rest during the day because your body says it needs to be up. Friday night I went on an overnight with the YW and Ym. AK and Meg went also. The weird part is that our stake campground is the same campground I went to 22 years ago as a youth. It brought back lots of fun memories. My mom went and what an adventure that was. It is wierd looking back and thinking I was here as a youth and here I am with my girls now. I have pictures, but I
I'll post them later. Ak got into the National junior Honor society last week. Meg has tryouts for Winter guard right now-Good luck!!(we know she'll make it)

I made it!!

Well, my first all night shift. The work was okay, it was just slow but I kept busy and time went by fast. It was the once home that i got really sick. I got an hour nap yesterday, so I was very tired. I came home and went to bed, between the kids getting off to school(they wer very good), the dogs, and then the phone. It was a long morning. I have a major headache and want to throw up, so here I go back to bed before I have to pick up kids. I turned the phone off and the dogs will go out first then I will tackle a nap. I know it will be worth it, but it will take a couple of weeks. I am off until thurs. night. Good night..

overnights-good or bad???

So, I was told I will be going overnights, but first I have to be replaced. I was hopung to start Sat., but we will see. I am excited for the extra money it will bring in and the availability it allows during the week for the kids. I will work Thurs-Sun 9 or 10pm to 6 or 7am. I have not done overnights before, but D. and the kids are going to very supportive and allow me to rest hopefully, or at least as much as i can get with 5 kids, 2 dogs and a husband. Soon, we will be in full swing into the holidays. Wal-mart already has Christmas music playing and FM100. I am very, very excited. I love Christmas, so my kids plug their ears in the car.

Happy Halloween
