Slacker!

Well yes I am a huge slacker lately! My last blog was over 2 months ago...I have good reasoning though! ;)

Shortly after Huntor's birthday, we headed back to Utah for 2 weeks. It was my grandparent's 50 wedding anniversary party (my mom's mom and dad, Carol and Dewey) and my 10 year class reunion.

The anniversary party went well. They had a very good turnout! They had family from all over come and friends that drove from Montana and Casper to celebrate with them! I thought that was pretty amazing! I think that grandpa and grandma had a great time!

In-between the party and the reunion, we helped my other grandparent's do some deep cleaning! D'Ann and ArLlyn have a huge storage shed, and we went through every box! Man that lady keeps a lot of stuff! ha ha It made me reevaluate some of the things that I had been holding onto! ;)

My class reunion was fun! It was a lot of work! I helped plan bits and pieces of it, but did a lot of hands on work when I got there. The girls that planned it did an awesome job! Especially considering that they had no money, yes, our class is broke!! Thank you class president! Marissa was the only one that was on the reunion committee that did any work, so it was a good thing that her friends rallied around her to help out! ;)It was good to see so many people that I hadn't seen in years! Some people had changed a ton and some hadn't changed at all!

We finally got home from Utah again and it was time to pack; we had a new house to move into!! I promise to post pictures soon. When we moved in, there was still no hardware on the cabinets, no mirrors in the bathrooms, etc. I am still waiting on a few things to be done. We told them that we are not signing the papers to buy the house until they have the punch list completed, and done right... They haven't been here to work in over a week, so I guess getting their money isn't that big of a deal to them...I am not very happy with them today! As you can tell! I spent 13 hours of the last two days resealing all of the tile in our master bathroom. They didn't mop before they put the sealer on and there were chunks of mud all over the floor, and the shower wasn't completely sealed. So I got down on my hands and knees and scraped all the mud up and resealed it...resealed the shower too. Grrrr! But don't worry, Alan called and told them that we will bill them for all of my time! ;) They may not love us after we meet on Monday! he he We have our appraisal on the 13th so I'll have to have my house put together by then. I'll plan on posting pictures by then as well ;)

Tailor has been playing volleyball. She loves it again this year and has improved greatly! They weren't going to be able to have a team if they couldn't find a coach...so guess who volunteered! I didn't know a ton about the sport, so I recruited Leish to help me out. She has taught them so much and I am so blessed to have her drive up here on the weekends to help coach!! The girls are having a blast this year, and winning some games I might add! I'll post picts of volleyball later too.

We decided that we are going to hit a Broncos game again this year! Yay! Since Alan loves the Giants, we are going to Denver over Thanksgiving for the Thanksgiving Day game! Us four will fly down around the 24th of November and fly home that Friday or Saturday. We are all so excited! It will be a different Turkey Day, but well worth it!

Huntor did start Kindergarten this year! Hoooooray! He loves it so much! Both of the kids have excellent teachers this year! It's amazing what a good teacher can do for a child. Tailor got an A+ on her math test yesterday! Math is not her strong suit and she is excelling in all areas this year. It is also great, because I have not had to fight one day to get either of them out of bed for school! I am loving the time around the hosue by myslef, it's amazing what you can get accomplished!

Well I better get cleaning again! Prince Charming is going to grace us with his presence this weekend! He will also wrap up his jobs in MN today!!!! Yahooooo! The job that he starts on Tuesday will be only 2 1/2 hours away! So much closer! I hate him being away, but you have to go where the work is! Part of owning your own biz ;)

Please keep my grandpa in your prayers as the cancer has started to spread. Pray that he will not be in too much pain! I will know more about the route that they are taking early next week so I promise to post and ask for specific prayers. Thanks so much! God Bless you all!

Until next time...
