So we went fishing tonight. The middle two kids love to do this with Dad and we decided to have a picnic. It was a lot of fun and Jessie caught this huge bluegill! The kids were really excited about it and wanted to touch it. Of course they thought it was slimy and yucky, but it was cute to watch.
Random thoughts and family updates, come and get an insight into the craziness that is my life

Day 138...
We made the big move tonight! Evelyn and Dietrich now have their bunk beds. They are very excited about them and it does really open up their room again so they can play in it. I just pray that Evelyn won't roll out of bed and that it doesn't hinder night potty training.
Day 137...
So Timothy has been crawling up the stairs for a while now, but today someone helped him pull the gate down so he could do it without anyone knowing. He is really good at them and rarely falls.

Day 136...
We had a big dinner with the missionaries tonight and Savannah wanted to eat at the big table. They grow up so fast.
Day 135...
So I realized that I never posted a picture of the finished play set. os here it is. Jessie and Devan did a great job. The kids really enjoy playing on it, and to make sure the little kids don't feel left out, we got them this.
Day 134...
I just love this picture of Timothy chilling in the car. He is such a laid back baby most of the time.
Day 133...
So tonight was our monthly relief society weekday meeting. Kathy Bullock taught us how we can us T-shirts to make many different things. We had a lot of fun and got some great ideas. If you look closely in the background you can see Matt Foster talking to Lisa Jarbo. Matt was there to pick up his children. I just thought it was funny that he ended up in the picture.
Day 132...
Savannah is obsessed with shoes. She is my daughter! Today she put Timmy's shoes on her feet all by herself. Luckily they are in the same size so she couldn't stretch them out.
Day 131...
On Saturday, Devan and the other scouts went out ot do a service project. They planted these trees and laid out a lot of mulch and did other landscaping. The things that we can accomplish when we work together are amazing. Way to go Devan!
Day 130...
The way nature is always overcoming obstacles amazes me. Here is this tree trying to grow and it doesn't care about the power lines that are in the way or the signs that it will block, it just wants to grow big and strong. We could all learn something from this tree about how we should focus on what really matters.
Day 129...
Happy Mother's Day!!!
All of the kids wanted to cuddle dady today. It was so nice. I got some stuff I wanted to and a great day with my family.
Day 128...
Today I took Evelyn to get her hair fixed after she cut it yesterday. I threaten to have it all hacked off to even it up, butg I decided to be nice. I don't know if I like the haircut or not, I think it will have to grow on me.
Ummm...Friday Flip Offs
Okay, so I am getting pretty behind on my project 365 posts. I have taken the pictures I promise, just findng time to post lately has been rough.
So lots of people in the blogging world do these Friday Flip Offs! I think I might join in today.
1. To DHS for making us live in limbo longer, lets give unfit parents more time and more rope to hang themselves, nevermind that I have a life and a family of my own to take care of....Flip off!
2. To parents who can't take care of their kids and then talk about having more kids..Flip off!
3. To inconsiderate teenagers who don't listen and always seem to have attitude...Flip off!
4. To people who ask for help but don't really want it, if you ask me for help, I will do my very best to help you and will be very annoyed when waste my time and energy...Flip off!
5. To myself for being such a negative person this week and having no patience for my children and the everyday messes that mean nothing in the grand scheme...Flip off!
and finally
6. To people who waste everyone's time, just because you have nothing better to do, don't assume that we don't either...Flip off!
So now to see if I can get into a more positive attitude for my weekend off. I promise to get my project 365 caught up this weekend, so check back often to see what has been happening in the crazy world that is mine.
