It's the end of life as I know it!






Today was the end of life as I know it! Well this month is really! I am so excited to be done with school! As Trent can attest to I have been very stressed out the past couple of days preparing for my PRAXIS exam! I passed both the reading and the math sections and in 15 business days I will know if I am going to actually have a chance to get into my licensing program for fall, when I receive my writing scores!! I have to thank the Lord! He truly blessed me through my test! I am so grateful for father's blessings and for a father that is a worthy priesthood holder that could give me one!  With out the Lord there is no way I would have been able to remain so calm through out my test! So Thank you HEAVENLY FATHER!  

Other reasons for beginning a new page in life:
*A TOILET UPSTAIRS-- Yes my family has been sharing one bathroom. It happened to be downstairs so in the mornings I would have to force my self to get out of bed, to hike down the stairs to the bathroom! NOT ANY MORE!! :)
(No Our Toilet does not look like this but I thought it was pretty cool!)
*Heidi and Dave and Anna-- They final came home! At least for Christmas! It was a very exciting reunion as everyone danced around excited to see how healthy they are and excited to see how big Anna has gotten! Of course the cousins attacked her! At one point I walked into the TV room to find them laying on her on the couch! Funny Nieces and Nephews!

*REMODELING almost finished!!--  They laid the carpet in the TV room, refinished the floors and tomorrow is the day for all the shelves and things in the bathrooms! I am excited to have a clean house again!

Life has been busier than ever! But I am ready for a break! I am so excited for December 31st! Why you may ask?? Well Trent has invited me to go to DISNEYLAND WITH HIS FAMILY!! I am so excited! 3 days in the happiest place on EARTH!! I am really excited to go again with Trent! I just love being with him and adding Disney makes it even better!

The other night my mind was going crazy I couldn't sleep because things just kept piling up! I hope that my brain decides to calm down!!

OH THE FIRST DAY OF SNOW!!!

So I went to work today not expecting 6 inches of snow!! I wore slippers!! Anyway it was fine in the morning but come afternoon there was a ton of snow! I wasn't going to take my kids outside to play because...well I am a baby! Well kids have their way of driving you crazy enough to take them outside in the white out!! When we got outside it wasn't to cold! I love fresh snow days when the snow is pure white and the earth is so calm! I was enjoying it! Despite my slippers! AND THEN IT HAPPENED!! I called to my kids to line up and discovered that two of them were missing! When I went to my door they had already let themselves inside, locking the door behind them! YES I WAS LOCKED OUT!! I was livid! and then to top it off I pounded on the door and they just looked at me, laughed, went and hid in the corner of the room! I ran to the kindergarten door and went and opened my door! 
Needless to say I was frustrated and not so happy!! 
But the kids left pretty early and I was happy for that!!

The best part of my day was morning circle time! We talked about careers and jobs! We asked each of the kids what their parents do for work! WELL KIDS SAY THE DARN-EST THINGS! One kids says... My dad plays baseball (His dad is the U of U baseball coach), another says my Mom is a heart doctor, and helps people (which is true), one child says My dad watches TV, and my favorite response "Them don't do anything"!! 

Everything pays off when you have those amazing comments!! 

Life in the MAKING! !
