I am just planning the future week and started getting a little sad. Here's my list why.

1. I am so not prepared for halloween. The kids have their costumes(we got them Fri), but in my head I always wanted to be more prepared. We carved a pumpkin weeks ago at Aunt Karla's that is now old, mold and wrinkly and have yet to buy more.

2. This is the last week of football for Dan and Tanner and cheerleading for Jayla. It takes up so much time, 3 practices a week and game on Sat. This has been going on since the second to last week in Aug. It creates for a busy schedule, but I love being busy (as much as I may complain sometimes). They are undefeated, so we are playing in the championship.(That doesn't make me sad. It makes me happy)

3. The Rockies lost. That's all I'll say about that.

So thanks to my sis. Ellen and bro.-in-law Jason I now have the movie icon on my dashboard!!! YA!!!! So here is my attempt at putting a video clip on my blog......

This is Tanner at our family reunion in Logan canyon. He is 5 yrs old. It makes me laugh every time I watch this.

What to do about clutter.....

I have decied I hate paper. I am always trying to manage it as it comes into the house between school and mail and stuff that Dan brings home from work or football. Now that we know we will be here for at least another 2 years ( Dan got a promotion that will keep us here in Colorado for a little while longer. Ya, Dan I love you!) I am trying, actually always trying, to organize the house. The toys are finally manageable, I have gone through closets and gotten rid of things or put them away for pass me downs. And then there's the PAPER!!!!! There are so many "what if's"...... I better not get rid of this or that because WHAT IF I need it later. It doesn't look that important but WHAT IF it is and I will be asked to make it appear at a later date. I do not have that inner knowledge of how to contain/ organize. It was not something that I was born with or taught. I am tired of all the crap and want an organized home!!

Help!! I am drowning!! (in paper)

Zach got fast and Jayla went short.


As you can tell in the pictures Zach is running fast. Dan bought him new shoes at our new Kohls that just opened up by the Super Target. He told me he has lots of energy to run fast because he eats so good. Then he said that he talks so good because Heavenly Father gave him the energy to do that. He has to sleep in his shoes, too. I don't know if it's because he needs to run fast in his dreams or if it's because he's afraid that one of his bro's are going to snatch them at his most vulnerable. ( It's a third child thing, or second boy thing, they never really get anything to themselves.)

You can tell as well that Jayla got her hair cut. She has wanted her hair cut off and on for a year, so Sat. came along and I took her to go get it done. She really likes it and it makes me kind of sad because I think it makes her look older. My little girl is growing up.





Here is my lame attempt at post a video. ( how do you do this experienced bloggers) click the little question.
