Everything But Nothing

That is exactly what has been going on at our house Everything but nothing! With in the past few weeks we have started Gymnastics ( Kinzie & Halli ), packed, Packed and packed, study, studied and studied, worked, and moved, and of course all the other day to day stuff and things I have forgotten, because my memory is full.
Life like I always say is busy but has managed to get bussier. Trying to pack a house by yourself and trying to fit in school during the last 2 weeks of school is incredible stupid. I have 2 large final projects due this next week then Final exams the next week, and we had to be out by the 1st so it was better to get it over with.
I know you didn't even know we were moving, well we did give our notice 2 months ago hoping to find a place, and we did we just can't move in till the middle of December. so our stuff had to go into storage for a few weeks, our life is never normal like others we can't ever move on smoothly. But we are use to it I guess you can say. So we are back at the parents for a few weeks (Thanks Mom & Dad)!
The kids are getting ready for the holidays and can't wait to get into the house to celebrate them, of course the girls want everything they see, an Mik is wishing for a Nintendo DS and a Basketball hoop along with anything BYU of course.
Note: If you saw the BYU vs. Utah game don't say anything this may strike a nerve and you may get hurt by a 7 year old BYU fan!

So along with our crazy week my phone was on the Fritz and to make a long story short changing providers and should be up and running this week, along with that our lap top just shut down while I was putting together my power point presentation for Architecture, nice like I need this right now so I let it sit for a couple hours nothing would not even turn back on, so as tech savvy as I am I decided to investigate I got on our desktop and googled somethings and after doing a few little minor surgeries we are up and running again. I was shocked and had to give my self a high 5 for a job well done! ( do not attempt at home)

Next good thing( or not) I got out of school early so on the way home I thought I would check out the new store that opened on the way home, so I looked around a bit and headed out, was in a good mood and thought I would just take some back roads home, Bad idea, I got a ticket, I know nice I was out in the middle of nowhere and thought I would be OK well I guess in the middle of the farm area it is only 25mph apparently during the day kids are always crossing back and forth I guess the cop didn't notice it was 9:30 at night and those farm kids were in bed! What the heck if there are no street lights or signs it should be rural not residential! 42 in a 25. I can also blame my parents for the lead foot I inhereted it is hereditary you know. well that is $80 taken out of the Christmas budget!
Anyways here is my attempt for some Christmas pictures that we will be doing over and this time I will make sure Scott is their with me to help with the melt downs!

Going to bed crying!


I know we all have all put our kids to bed crying before, but who would have thought that it would be over the election. I don't know if this is a good thing or not I think Mik might have know more about the election then I did this year. That just shows there is way to much TV ads for the election( Waste of money)in my opinion.

So this sad little boy stayed up till john McCain decided to concede he just was so upset and in tears to her the news. He told me that he didn't want him to win because some how he learned about Obama's, plan about spreading the wealth and thought that he was going to be taking our money( Not that there is any to take) or something like that I was shocked that he could even go in to detail about it, more then I am. What are they teaching children these days, no I am kidding I think it is great to get children involved in the voting process but maybe not know all the propositions and Amendments that the president Elect is standing behind or wanting to change. This kid he cracks me up everyday he is so grown up I still catch my self thinking of him as a little toddler.


On another note Mik has been put in an advanced group for a few subjects and is testing in above his grade, this is the kid that already hates to do homework and anything his favorite subject is playground football, and the son of a mother who was class clown, and a dad who fell somewhere in between the 2 of us, well I guess we weren't blessed so someone had to be. There is hope! We are "BETTERING THE BREED" and that is all that counts! GO MIK!
