It's been a MONTH!!


It has been 1 crazy month since I have blogged...CRAZY, I know! I have no idea where all the time went, because I have very little tangible evidence that I did anything with this time.


FIRST OF ALL...I feel a ton of gratitude right now. It is so great to have friends that you can count on when you need their help. A very SCARY thing happened to my sister Tuesday night, and I was blessed to have understanding friends to take my children so I could drive the 5 hours and be with her. They watched the boys 2 full days, and were so kind to do it.


Next, I have so many plans, and things to do, and so little time to do them! I am going to make some lists tonight, pay the bills (@12:30 am) and get my life in order. I need to grab the bull by the horns and make some things happen. (AKA the ward cookbook, home projects, primary projects, easter weekend plans, laundry, toilets, parties, etc.)


I hope that everything is going well in your lives, and that you are all taking pictures of everything...
Like the photo of V and E at Buca de Beppo, my new favorite Italian Place? Happy B-day V!
I can't believe that you are actually 20!! You are no longer a teen! You get prettier every year you gain. Thanks for the fun new restaurant experience, Mom and Dad, you paid the bill!! YUM! The chicken SALTIMBOCCA, is a must have!!


My little bro Q, went deep sea fishing this week, in the gulf of Mexico. He said he was puking the whole time as the 10 ft. waves rocked the boat, and as he was reeling in mackerel (sp?) It was crazy fun times...Attitude is everything, he proved, as he stuck with his guns, and determinedly enjoyed his fishing trip, though most people chose to stay down below, and lay down, and wish the trip was over! What a TROOPER! (I would like to see you do your best Captain Ahab impression, Q!) YES! YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY DO IT AGAIN!


DS E is such a great kid, and DS A is a fantastic boy, too! They are so cooperative, and didn't even bat their eyes at me leaving them with someone else. ( In all truthfullness, I almost wish that they were a little bit sad about me leaving them!) DH J, you are so sweet and understanding, and I appreciate you for taking charge, and supporting my sis.

.......and little sis V, feel better, and know that most people are decent. Don't be afraid; live your life, and love it, as you always have. WE LOVE YOU!!
