I feel like lately I have been so busy. Thinking back, I don't really even have any evidence for my self-proclaimed swamptness (yeah, that word means, the feeling of being over scheduled or swamped.)
We had our enrichment birthday party last week. I only had to pick up cake and ice cream and show up to set up tables and chairs, then clean up. We had a speaker on organizing our lives spiritually and physically. She motivated me to get rid of stuff and get my home in order. I have just the top shelf in both kids rooms left before I have their rooms done. So far, their rooms are the only things I have done. It amazes me that when I focus on getting rid of junk, the rest of the house explodes. I have so far to go before I feel that I am where I want to be. Spiritually, I almost don't even know where to start. Baby steps I suppose.
I started my weight lifting class this week. We had to sit and listen to the rules and the lady talk. This will go on for 2 more classes. I cant wait for the yakking to be over and just to go to lift.
I signed up Kaden for T-ball and Hailey for machine pitch baseball. That starts in may.
We have been busy doing our basement. We have come so far, yet have a long way to go.
Anyway, I thought I would put up an update. Hope all is well with everyone
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMY (April 4th)! Amy is my sister-in-law. We went to California together last may, and had a great time (Aaron). She is always happy and always making me laugh. She is a great friend and I am glad to have her at family gatherings!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALLAN (April 5th)! Callan is my nephew. (Amy and Aaron's son). He had a super-fun sleep over. Kaden got to go...I don't know that they "slept" much because on the way home, Kaden fell asleep! We love ya bud!
Happy Birthday Aaron (April 5th)! Aaron is my nephew. This picture is 2 or so years old. Aaron likes to dodge my camera...but no fear, I would have pulled out the picture of him NUDE sitting on his little hot wheel with perminate black magic marker ALL over him. Aaron is now 13, Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Beverly (April 10th)! Bev is my sister-in-law. I don't get to see her or her family much. I thought I was going to have to post a few year old picture of her (and Curtis), but they came down this weekend. Bev and I used to love to watch mini-series together...ahhh the good ol days!
Happy Birthday Preston (April 16th)! Presto (yes, I meant to forget the "n") is one of my 5 favorite brothers. He is a lot of fun to be around. He is searching for Easter eggs with his daughter Arden. I love how much he loves being a dad. He is so fun to watch around Arden. Happy Birthday Preston.
Happy Birthday Curtis (April 22nd). Curtis is my nephew. Curtis spent the entire night attacking me and Thomas with a pillow...didn't stop when I carried him upstairs and threatened a head in the toilet. He has the most amazing eyelashes you would ever see. They are so long, dark and curly. I remember going to the swim park with them and he actually had water trapped on his eyelashes. Happy Birthday Curtis!
Happy Birthday Tiffany (April 27th)! Tiffany is my sister-in-law. I love being around Tiffany. We are taking the women's weight lifting class together. I am so excited to get to spend more time with her! She has 3 amazing children, and is the wife of one of my 5 favorite brothers!
