Us, these days, in a nutshell

It's time to update this blog. It's been a while and our situation, though not a lot different, is much happier :)

I'm not sure how to do this post. I wish I could post all kind of pictures of the trip, the Family reunion/cabin, the visits from Aunties, the trip to Rexburg we just took but it all seems overwhelming right now.

So here is what has happened since the last post (for those who really want to know):

After my last depressing post my sister Wendy came over from the other side of Washington, to visit me and the kids. It was so nice to have her around to help entertain the kids.

Not long after that my dear friend and old college roommate Adrienne and her husband Denver and their four kids made a trip down to the area and stopped in for a night or two. It was SO fun to see her and her cute family. Sadly I am so lame and did not take ONE picture while they were here. Some how it slipped my mind, it might have had to do with the complete chaos 7 kids 7 years old and younger can cause in one house hold. It was fun chaos though!

Finally after what seemed like an Eternity Daddy returned home to us! The kids spent the next week jumping on the trampoline every day with daddy. It became his new source of exercise.

Shortly after Daddy got here we had another visit from my another sister (the favorite one ;) Angela came for a few days. The kids were so excited to have another Auntie to entertain them.

After Angela left we went back to "regular" life what ever that is these days. Daddy hit it hard job hunting in the area and has several leads which we are hoping one pans out for us soon. The kids and I stayed home and annoyed each other all day. Okay so E and J fought and I was annoyed by it all. They were SO ready for school to start again.

Over labor Day weekend we headed off to Rexburg Idaho to visit with more family. It is so nice to be out West and close to all our family!

My sister Kim and her husband Tyler had a baby three months back and were blessing their sweet chunky baby boy over the holiday weekend. So we (me my family and my siblings and Mother) all met up in Rexburg and crashed my sisters' place and her in-laws place as well, it was crazy fun! My other sister Whitney and her Husband had a baby a month ago and also live in Rexburg and so we got to visit with them and meet their sweet tiny little girl and also crash their place. It was really fun to see them and their cute little babies.

My Mom was so excited to have all her grand children (all five of them) in one place. We got some really cute pictures of my kids with their new cousins, I sure wish I could post them on here, oh well.

Now, we are back in Spokane. Daddy is job hunting once again and interviewing, the kids are in school as of today and life seems a little bit more normal.

That's us in a nutshell.

Hope you endured this lame post. I promise soon I will put real thoughts and pictures and good posts up soon. Promise.

Stay tune for a million posts of just pictures (to catch up where I have been lacking).
