Spring stuff

In the spring we were TOTALLY busy, which I love. I like the craziness of running around and stuff going on. I feel that I'm actually doing something. KC and Kaylea were chosen to to do UIL (University Interscholastic League)for academics. Kaylea for third grade story telling and KC for fourth grade music memory. They did very well. Kaylea placed second place and KC placed fifth place. I'm very proud of them.

As this was going on, KC was also playing "FOOTBAAAALLLLL" or we in the USA call it soccer. He did fairly well and had tons of fun. I think he liked it more because he would occasionally play against his best friend, Master A. they would have so much fun.

So along with all of that there was pinewood derby of course. This year I told David to have KC do most of the car. KC loved it and had so much fun learning how to make it. He named his car Destructinator, after his favorite band. We were so proud of him doing the work and getting into it. The boy got FIRST place!! Yeah, he was happy.

A great beginning of our spring.

Yeah, I'm a SLACKER

The summer has come and gone and I'm finally getting pics down loaded so I got to put them on here. I need to do this in sections, from the spring until now so you will be seeing alot of new things. Hope you enjoy.

Where have we been?

So the question is "what have I been doing?" this is because I am lost people, lost!! I have to write this quick like because we are running off once more. The kidos are in baseball/softball. Tuesday and Thursday's are practices, Monday is softball games and Saturday is basball games. David is the assistant coach for KC's team. I help with the softball. We are loving it. Wendsday's is girls activity days and cub scouts which David and I are apart of. David's the Bear assistant leader and I'm the Webelo leader by myself. All this and we still have piano practice which we like. So our Sunday's have become VERY sacrid now. I'm trying to get this semester over and done with because I'm way sick of it all. I'm burnt out!! Well, I got to go. I will write more later, bit by bit of what is going on and maybe someday soon I will get pics up.

up dates

Goodness, Why is it I feel like I cannot keep up? So the kids are all in sports. KC is playing soccer and will be starting baseball with David being the assistant coach. The girls are playing softball. So this is how it goes. The kids get home from school around 3:30, have a snack, do homework, practice piano, and do what little chores they have. Tuesday's and Thursday's they have practice all at the same time at different places for an hr and half. Monday's right after school is piano lessons and Wednesdays its cub scouts/activity days. Now in the mix of all of that, I go 4 times a week to work out my muscles with a friend of mine around 6p. So life is busy, but we like it that way.
I don't remember if I mentioned this in the older posts, but I have two hernia's that I get to have fixed. I cannot do it now because I have school and the Dr. is saying I'm going to be down for six weeks. I will be able to walk around after two weeks, but nothing like housework and stuff. So I just scheduled the date for May 21st. Its a Thurs. and memorial weekend, so David will have those days off. Mom is planning on flying in on the 26th. It does hurt, but I think I can deal with it for another 3 months. We are thinking about starting to garden too. I have a friend that does it and Tiff is inspiring me, so David said "Lets do it!"
Oh, so we're already planning for next yr and are sooo exited. We are planning on going to Havasupai with family. I have never been and the kids are old enough now to make the hike. We have been looking up pictures and did see the pics of the flood that went through last yr. I have cousins that will be going this yr in June and will tell us if the water is all blue again. I think it would be fun. Any who, well, I will get pics on here soon enough. Sorry for being such a slacker.

Yeah, its been awhile

So we've been dealing with people being sick in this house and now almost everyone is better. David is still out of it. His ear is doing better, but he comes home to take a nap at lunch times and he's been getting to bed early.
This past Friday, KC won pinewood derby in cub scouts and David is thinking he will take KC to race in region. KC is so exited. He and David worked on this car together. They did a lot of widdling and shaping. The next day KC and Kaylea had UIL compitition for the school district. KC took 5th place in music memory and the 4th grade music memory team got first place. Kaylea took 2nd place in story telling for her grade. The boy that won first place won last year too. We are very proud parents right now. I will get pics up later. I haven't been doing a very good job with the pics. :( I will try to do better.

sick sickies

So this house hold has had its share of sickness. It started last week with Kaylea with strep throat. Then on Friday night Bre started with a fever that would go away, but then come back, weird. David got to take her in and she had bronchitis. She stayed home for 3 days. Then its me, start of bronchitis and sinus infection. Fun stuff. They gave me a shot and two antibiotics. So I have been out of it for the last 2 days. Feeling a whole lot better. David is now feeling yucky. I told him that he should see who I saw. He keeps on saying "its just allergies", umm. . . bebe, that's what I said too. I'm going to see the first surgeon tomorrow for the hernia. I won't be seeing the next one until Feb. 16 and then one in AZ hopefully in March. Have I said what is going on, gee, k slow down Shannan. I had a c-section with the twins. The Dr's. did not put the muscles back to where they were suppose to be and just told me that if I worked out then they would go back to normal. Well, its 8 yrs later and its gotten worse to the point that it hurts, having problems with my digestion and stuff, and working out is not helping. I just went in to see my OB/GYN and she said "yeah this needs to be taken care of soon". The soonest I'm thinking is the summer, then if I have the surgery here, my mom can come and help out with the kids. If I get to have the surgeon that I had in AZ (which would be great) then I will go there to have it done. Everything is in the works. Wish me luck.

Silly Bre

David opens the freezer and find a bowl of cheerios, no milk in it,just cheerios.
David: Who put the bowl of cereal in the freezer?!
Bre: I did daddy.
David: Why did you put it in the freezer?
Bre very serious: I wanted cold cereal.
David was laughing so hard and Bre just looked at him like he's crazy.
Kids are too funny sometimes and I have to stop myself and remind myself I have no idea what their thinking sometimes.

Busy, busy

Its already getting really busy around the Evans household, but thats the way we like it. I have been trying to get my biology done so that I don't have to worry about that anymore. The girls will be starting softball practice w/in a couple of weeks. Cub scouts is back up, David and I both have calling in the there. Nothing else really big. Hope everyone is doing well in this new year.
