Exhausted







I was sooo happy to go to Idaho to see my family for Thanksgiving. I have been so blessed and what better time to celebrate those blessings than being surrounded with the ones you love. We had so much fun and thank you to all of my family and I love you all so dearly. I was able to have my children, my mother, and my grandmothers pictures taken together. Melanie and Heidi you are great photographers!! I love this photo of my nieces and nephews!! Parker is such a little ball of dynamite he wouldn't look at the camera because he was extremely ticked off at us!! Kaiden has the sweetest little voice. Madie May knows what Tuesday starts with and my two new nieces are so precious.

Hooray!!

Ok I am very excited because I just got my LAST assignment back for the term and I am now officially done with one term. I just have 3 more to go!!! I am so stinking excited and I have nobody to share it with right at the present...I just texted Paul and told him but I don't think the librarian would really care or appreciate it if I start jumping up and down. Now I can come home for Thanksgiving and not stress about school work. HOORAY!!

FYI

Well there isn't a whole lot that is happening here in the middle of nowhere. So I thought I would do like Heidi and just post some general happenings. I am winding down my term at WGU, I have one essay left to do. Hopefully, it will get graded before Thanksgiving so I can have that weekend to enjoy my family. We are getting really excited to come to Idaho, I don't think that I have spent a Thanksgiving with my side of the family since before Tony and I got married. Paul is just working hard and he is getting ready to start coaching middle school basketball after the break. Joseph...well what more do I need to say. He has a terrible terrible attitude!! I know for the most part it is because of his age because when I sub at the middle school they all act like that. He has a new girlfriend. I guess we will see how long that last! Ben is doing good except when he and Joseph fight...ooooo that drives me nuts. Jacob is just Jacob...my little ham. Wait until we come up and he will sing you a song he made up. It is called, "Baby I'm Breakin' Some Wind."And Halle, precious precious little girl (yea right)! So that is it...our kinda exciting life!
