Okay, so its been awhile that I've writen. We have been BUSsssY. We have been getting our things unpacked, then getting Ryan and Liz unpacked, and then reorganizing. So we have it done now, yeay team! So this is how the day usually goes. We get up (we at first as David) to get the kids up and going at 5:30a. We queitly get ready for the day, eat, brush teeth, get dressed while we listen to Kaylea complain about wearing uniforms, and get out the door by 6:30a. David takes the kids to the bus stop and then heads to work. I go work out for about an hour and a half to two hours. I come home get a shower, eat breakfast, read email and all that fun stuff. Then if its Tuesday and Thursday's I go to school. If its a Monday or Wednsday I stay home, do house work while I do homework or plan for cub scouts. ( by the by, we got new callings. David teaches the 12 & 13 yr old Sunday School and is the wolf/bear assistant. I am the Webelo leader & help David with his sunday school class.) When the kids get out of school is homework with them, piano lessons or practice, cub scouts/activities (on Weds), David soccer game (Tues), or church stuff. So, the weekends we like to veg. Its crazy with just that stuff.

So talking about David and playing soccer. . . a couple of weeks ago David signed himself up to play for a team from work. They just go play on Tuesday's. Two weeks ago we all go watch David play, be his cheerleaders and such. Usually there is not much others there so that team members get a break, so he plays the whole time. I can tell that he was hurting towards the end. He ended up tering his grone muscle. So for a week he iced it, kept massaging the leg, but he still was hurting bad. That Saturday he showed me his inner thigh. It was really bruised up. We never knew that by taring a muscle that it would bruse. He finally called his sister Faye to ask if he had to go see a Dr. She said that he just had to wait it out and continue what he was doing. So heres some pics of my poor baby. Well, I got to go. Hayden's waking up, so that mean Liz and I are going to go work out!!

We are still unpacking because we just moved, yes once again. I know that some of you are going "goodness, when are they going to stop moving. . .", "they are not stable". Its my fault. Lets see, the first time we moved was out of the Mesa house to Germany, so that was military. Then we bought our house in El Mirage, we lived there for four yrs. Then we moved to a rental in Rockwall for a yr and then bought a house. We lived in there for . . . oh, 3 yrs. Then we moved into a temp rental. That is because we wanted to move back to AZ because we miss family and our close friends. We were almost there, but David and I started praying for us to go there, he got an offer from a company that was just a contract job. We were going to take it, but David's job here gave him more to stay. We do love the family, but AZ is sooo not stable right now. Hopefully in another couple of years. So now we are within a couple of miles of David's job and we are good now that I can concentrate on school and not worry about working too. I know I should not have to explain everything that we do, but I do want people to understand what we are thinking.
Any who, we are still unpacking and we are unpacking a bit fast right now because my brother and family will be living with us for a bit. Like I said, AZ is not doing well right now for jobs. My brother and wife have decided to try it here. We are happy to help them out. We would do that for any of our family and friends. So we are getting things organized around here. I hope most of you know ( because this is for family and friends to be reading) that we would help any of you out, no questions. We both feel that this is something that family would do right away, but I guess that is something that most others do not do. That baffles me. Why would you not want to help people that you love? I know that you also have to take into account what kind of help your giving that person is going to help or hinder them. You can still do something.
Well, its late and we have a busy day tomorrow. . .
Yesterday was fun. Must of you know that Ike hit TX. We're east of Dallas. We have been told for several days to get ready here because it was going to be bad, wind gusts up around 80 mph. Well if you know David and I you know that we are ready. We have our 72 hour packs, water, and we do what we are told. So we are ready. I LOVE STORMS! Yes, I'm crazy in that way, but I love watching the clouds come, I love standing out in the wind, feel the rain all that stuff. We got the storm, but not much of it, Darn it. I just wanted a little more. I shouldn't complain because there are the people south that have nothing now, so yes I'm grateful for having a house to live in.
By the way people, be prepared!!

I went to the Dr.s yesterday because I am just not feeling good and cannot concentrate. I have a ear & sinus infection. I haven't had an ear infection since. . . well, I think as a kid. So I am bed ridden (shaw, that's going to work). I hate going to the Dr.s, especially when I know that I have a sinus infection, can you please just give me the meds? But I am glad that David dragged me this time. I do feel a bit better, I'm out of the bed. Plus I didn't think that I had the ear infection, just pressure in the head. Oh, and my blood pressure is through the roof because I'm sick. So I learned that I should listen to my bright husband when he insists that I should go see the Dr. The question is if he will go when I say that he should? Silly man.

K, so I haven't writen on here for a LONG time. I figured I should start doing this more since family what to know what is going on in my busy life and at least this is something that I can do inbetween classes and such. So from this time forward I will start writing more, thoughts, whats up with this crazy family, rantings, and such. Lucky you!!
