I've Got The Feeva!

I think Spring may actually be here! I had major Spring Fever today! I'm so excited that it is warming up outside....I couldn't help but do some spring cleaning. I washed windows, I cleaned my silk plants, I dusted my disgustingly dusty plant shelves....I had a long day! I'm so excited with all that I accomplished I think that I'll reward myself by laying in my bed all day tomorrow reading my book!!

I hope to not see the top of this shelf again until next year!

I Totally Deserved This...

Jace: 'Mom, can I have a snack?'
Me: (laying in my bed reading a really good book) 'Sure.'
Jace: 'What can I have?'
Me: 'You're a big boy, just go find something...'

Hmmmmmm......

My 2007 Blog Book

Yay! I'm finally done! (actually I've had my book for a couple of weeks...just procrastinated the post) Making my blog into a book was tons of fun and I think everyone should do it! This is the reason I'm such a diligent blogger...I love having a fun way to keep a "journal". There are several things that I will do different for 2008. Starting with not doing slide shows, and making sure I print a copy of the book out before I publish it. (the program recommends this but I thought I was above it...should have done it...I could have caught several mistakes!)

Total Cost (for those of you who are wondering) 8X11 Hardcover 110 pages about $37.00

Now I get to start working on 2008!

Karate Man Meltdown

Both of the boys had Belt Promotions last night. Jace was up for his white belt purple stripe and East was getting his brown belt yellow stripe. As you can see Easton got his new belt! We are so proud of him!Where is the photo of the little brother? Here's the story: (for posterity) As we are driving to the Karate school Jace asks me "Mom, do you think we could go buy some Pokemon cards after Karate?"...I gave the typical mom answer of "We'll see."

As we are getting out of the van Jace says "Mom, I forgot my shoes." "Oh well, I say...but we won't be able to go to the store without shoes so we'll have to go another time." WHAT??? followed by a major melt down!

So...I drag the kicking and screaming child into Karate so that I can try to calm him down in time for him to get his new belt (which by the way he has been anticipating for weeks!)~only to drag him back out kicking and screaming 15 minutes later...minus the new karate belt! AAAHHHH! So now...if you'd like to feel sorry for the poor little guy....his life is feeling pretty empty right now without a new Karate belt OR some new Pokemon cards! I would be willing to bet that my guy takes the cake for the most stubborn child!

It's a good thing I love him so much!....isn't Karate supposed to be helping me with this!!??

Aren't they cute!?

Weigh In

Emmy was weighed again today and is down to 11 lbs. 9 ozs. Yippee! Way to go Emmy!

I realize it seems like I take my dog to the vet everyday! This time it was for 'excessive itching' (like waking us up in the night 'excessive itching!')....apparently the dog groomer nicked the inside of her ears and they have turned into huge scabs...Poor Puppy! :( But, hey at least we got a good weight report!

Cool School Of The Week

The kids' school was featured on Good Day Utah this morning on Fox 13 News as the "cool school of the week". They had several segments. Camry was featured along with her choir group The Musical Express. It was fun to see the kids on tv. We LOVE our school!

Click on the link to our school to see Camry perform. She is in the 4th segment.
