Moving weekend.

I have been getting ready to move this weekend. Unfortunately the phones will not be working at my new office because the phone people screwed up bad. It is so frustrating since I started the procedure for moving the phones 6 weeks ago. My back is already tired from packing everything up at the office. Tomorrow the moving truck will be at the old office to move all of the boxes, desks, file cabinets, etc. the new offices are new and will be great once the move is over. Cheryl and I are taking an exercise class for women over 35 Strength Training. I have a hard time not laughing when I am in pain and Cheryly is the same so it is sometimes very difficult to do the exercise when you are laughing so hard. I told Cheryl that I will not make eye contact with her. It has been really nice and warm in IF today almost 42 degrees. The sun was actually shining this morning. Paul washed my car for me. I hope that it stays pretty and clean for at least one day. Clayton called me yesterday after his business class to tell me that his professor had him teach the class with about 2 minutes notice and that he really loved doing it and did a great job. He was so jazzed. I would be terrified to have a teacher at college do that to me...even if I knew the material well. Makayla had the day off from school today for Parent Teachers conference..she had really good grades she just has a little problem with being too social..but all of her teachers love her and love having her in their class. Well I had better go and make something for dinner. bye now.

Update

What a busy week. My office is moving again and there are so many things to get done
before the move. We had a really nice enrichment last night. We made up goody bags and treats for some of the older members of our ward then we delivered them with a quick visit. I went and did a temple session yesterday and it really made my day alot better. I went in the earlier afternoon and it is a great time of day to go. I went to the CE Gale basketball games with Makayla this week and the games were really close and kept you on the edge of your seat. Makayla wanted me to come so that her friends could see who her mother was. I hope that they approved.
Well I had better get back to work. bye now.

New Week

This week has been rather crazy with work and family things. but not as crazy as last week when we had Carter and Max. I finished my last class of Intro to Quickbooks last night and start the Quickbooks II class next tuesday. Hopefully it will go faster than the first. I finish my strength training class this week and do not start again until 2-25 but luckily the exercises are some that I can do at home with the weights that I have. I was checking out Danielle's mothers blog and saw that her Grandma had passed away. It is so sad to lose those that have been such a big part of your life. The sun has been shining a little the last few days and the temperature has been in the high 30's, then we wake up this morning to a cold front moving through again. Brrrrrrrr......Winters in Idaho!!!!! I still do not know what to do for Paul for Valentines Day. Maybe we can go out to lunch on Friday since he is off. I got the kids a treat for Valentines and hopefully they will like it. Well I better get to work. bye now.

Last day with the Boys.

We have had such a busy week with Carter and Max. They do not stop for even 2 seconds. Yesterday we went and fed the geese down by the river. We put together alot of puzzles. today we have been going going going. We cleaned house this morning and then Paul played outside with max for awhile then we went to McKinley's bday party at Leo's. the boys loved the playroom. Carter especially loved the slide and then they ate lots of ice cream and cake. We then came home and gave the boys a little nap before going to dinner at Mrs. Mickelsens. The boys ate everything and then more ice cream and cake. We are now sitting around watching tv and getting ready for bath time. It will be awful quiet around here when they go home tomorrow. They are not ready to go home yet. I think we spoil them too much when they are here. We will have to bring Gabby next time. I miss having her here for a visit. Once the kids start school it is really hard to get them for a visit. Well I have to go and give some baths and finish the kids laundry. I am really looking forward to going to the Rexburg Temple dedication tomorrow. what a treat for everyone involved. Paul is going to drive the kids to Utah while I am at church and at the dedication. What a great husband I have. bye now.

What the....

Okay we wake up this morning and we have another snow storm overnight which puts down up to a foot of snow in some areas around town. ... what a nightmare...enough. I could hardly get around town today because the snow was so deep and then it kept getting into my snow boots because of how deep it was. I tried to get up my driveway after exercise class tonight and it took two tries before I could make it. I have been listening to the news and we are supposed to get even more snow tonight. It looks like a doozy of a snow storm that is moving in. Max had a blast in the snow today. I went out to shovel the front sidewalk and he shoveled in the driveway for about an hour and made a huge mountain of snow. He was so proud of himself. But I had a hard time getting around it trying to leave tonight. But that is okay. he just cannot understand why I do not like to play in the snow. Carter just watched.. he does not seem to like to get cold that much. max and Paul plowed snow all over the neighborhood tonight trying to help the neighbors out. Max had a blast of course. Well gotta go give the boys a bath and get them in bed. bye now from buried in snow.........

Crazy Winter

Ok enough with the snow. I know that we need the moisture but okay. I got stuck at lunch downtown and Paul had to come over and push me out. Then I get home and Danielle is stuck in the alley. I pushed and dug for about 20 minutes and finally some of the neighbors came out and we were able to push her out. Boy was I tired after that.
Max and Carter are staying with us this week to give Susan a break. They sure do keep us busy. I do not think that Carter is feeling very good but he is being a good boy and so is Max. They can hardly wait for Paul to come home from work so he can play with them outside. I did not go to exercise class last night but I did the exercises at home and Carter and Max had to try them out. They were so cute trying to lift the weights. I have Quickbook class tonight I hope that it is a little faster so it will not be so boring. Since I got so little sleep last night because Max got up twice. I think he had a tummy ache considering the condition of the bathroom when we woke up this morning.
Well I better get to work and get through another work day. I was happy to see that they plowed the roads downtown and they were starting on the residential this morning.
Bye now.
