Busy Busy

We have been sooo sooo busy around my house! With getting ready to move to Texas, which we are going to be living in a suburb called Sugar Land, which so far seems to be a great place to live if you are going to live in Texas...anyway, and with me going to school, Ryan getting ready to attend Law school, Jake getting ready to graduate from Kindergarten, and Wyatt growing up and becoming his own little person, we are pooped!! Heres some cute pictures....

Jake at the safe kids fair

Jake got to meet McGruff the crime dog at the safe kids fair, Wyatt wouldn't go, he wanted to stay with daddy so just me and Jake went. We had fun:)

Wyatt being goofy...He is a crackup! He found these goggles and put them on, we were laughing so hard!

Wyatt at the treehouse museum..his favorite place to be!!

I say this in a good way though, it's nice to be busy in some ways, keeps my mind off having to move away, but I haven't had time for myself in...well, quite a while. I have either been studying, or doing homework, helping Jake with homework or soccer, helping Wyatt with all his projects, and just being a mom and wife. It can take it out of you! I wanted to take a minute to update the blog, I think this is the first "free" moment I have had all day:)

Boys will be boys

Jake and Wyatt helping do Grandpa Kieth's concrete

A little boys dream machine!

Ryan has been helping his dad pour new concrete at his house, and as you can probably guess Jake and Wyatt have been right there with him...Here are a few cute pictures of them working along side daddy...
As for me, I have been keeping busy with school, it is taking most of my spare time and then some. I enjoy it, but I haven't gotten into a routine yet...hopefully soon...

Mother's Day

In honor of Mother's Day, I wanted to share a little about the two women in my life that I call Mom....First is my Mom Janet...I love this woman more than I can tell you...She has been my rock my whole life, whenever I need her she is there..boy am I gonna miss her when we move.....I cry as I write this because this will be one of the hardest things I have ever done is leave my family.  But....we will be home soon, I remind myself of this each day as I prepare myself to move out of this beautiful state of Utah.  She was a Registered Nurse during her career, and she always took more care of everyone else but herself.. she is a selfless person, one who has devoted her love and energy to caring for others. She has been an example to me my whole life and I love her beyond words! I am honored to call her Mom....I love you mom:) Happy Mother's Day!


Now for my mother in law Diane, talk about an example of love and laughter...This woman is so much fun! She has become to mean so much to me in the years that I have been married to her son Ryan, she is just as
I said my second Mom...I call her Mom, but so much more I call her friend, and she is a wonderful Grandma to my two little boys...She is always there to lend a hand, or a shoulder should you need it....I love you Di! Happy Mother's Day! You mean the world to me!

And to all my sisters out there, Teri, Susan, Karen and Mandy, Kim, Natalie, and Stacie...I love all of you too and want you to know how great you are as mother's! Happy Mother's Day!

Back to school for me...

Hmmm..this is going to be a little harder than I anticipated....school...I am excited to get this going, but looking at the content for these classes has me...well...a little intimidated.  Ryan says "you'll be fine."  Okay I know that I won't be physically harmed in the adventure of school, but what about mentally??? I already feel like I am losing it....kids screaming in the background, me trying to read some article for some history class, and then having to write a paper about what????? oh dear.....wish me luck:)

Oh yea, and right in the middle of actually submitting one of my assignments, that I actually understood, and accomplished, Wyatt unplugs my computer:(    I lost everything I had just done, and had to redo it........let's just say that wasn't my proudest moment...me crying, trying to get the computer back to where I had it, with the assignment on the screen ready to be turned in....Wyatt crying because the horrified NOOOOO!!!!!!!! I let slip outta my mouth probably scared him to death!.....not a pretty morning.....but after some hugs from mom and a lesson about not unplugging mommy's computer, Wyatt was on his way...no harm no foul.....he got his legos and trucks and was on his way to play.

Me on the other hand, well let's just say I continued to have some tears as I rewrote my assignment....but all is well now....I hope I can do this:)...
