Memorial Day Weekend

What a blast we had at the TOWER in North Ogden. Seems like it isn't where you are or what you do, but rather who you are with.

D had Friday and Monday off. We kept him busy on Friday with N graduating and getting cabinets for the kitchen downstairs. He did get in a bike ride to Brigham and back.

S finish the Dorothy costume and prepared to party. Finished 2 books on the Memorial day ride on Monday. Still trying to keep up with D.

T is sickly, but still pluggin' along. The Dr. says a virus..... I think she needs to slow down a bit. First big day at the pool was great. Cloudy and cool, but alot of fun. She made it to the zoo on Memorial Day.

K is getting ready to work full time at WHS. Only about a month left til he leaves for Ukraine.

N loved Lagoon and the graduation Pizza Party on Friday.

C done with Wizard of Oz and has only 3 days left of School.

Warm weather means busy.......

D is still hard to keep up with. Busy at work. Running and walking. Moved the Streaker out of storage and fixed the sprinklers S dug up when she tore out the bush in the back. Giving N a haircut.

S getting tired of the "General contractor" work that consumes her time. Paint and carpet looks nice, maybe we should move downstairs? Cabinets are next. The end is near. Battling with the school sytem for N.....is an emotional drain. Dorthy costume is done. Picking up after everyone.

T work....work....work.... Did hair for Sr. Cotillion on Saturday. Made breadsticks on Monday.

K actually cleaned his room...... Wow! Working a WHS and watching TV on Computer. Mom can't wait til school is out. Then he will work more. Hearing stories about Ukraine... Should be packing up....

N gets to go to Lagoon and will have a Pizza party on Friday. Getting a haircut right now.....

C had 1st performance of Wizard of Oz. Tomorrow is "Dorothy".... performance. She needs to clean her room as well...

Life Is Busy

D is working in the basement. Quite the electrician, I hate watching him change the plugs out... and tripping the breakers. He is really busy at work and still running.. sometimes twice a day. I cannot keep up with him.

S finished the May Craft with her sisters and extra helpers. Has returned to the Temple twice with K. Cleaning up one mess to just find another. More laundry and dishes and food being consumed with a full house. Stressed about the IEP for N and building a Dorothy Costume for C. Had a wonderful Mothers day. Has a new stereo in her car to listen to Tunes on.

T busy at work doing trainings. Life must be good, she seems happy. Busy cooking and baking which takes the load off others.

K spends too much time in front of the screen. He is only working in Logan at DB on the weekends and is back working at WHS from 3-6. Needs to get his stuffed for the mission ready. His room is a disaster, but the whole house is scrambled.

N is being neglected a bit with the remodel of the apartment. Excited to go to WHS. Getting ready for a Piano recital on Friday.

C is busy rapping up school, finished her State Float. Practicing her lines for the Wizard of Oz and practicing for the recital too.

Wow, will it ever stop raining?

We have had a great week

D is hoping the painters will show and get the apartment done. Going to celebrate another birthday. Has all the carpet out of the apartment. Was the Escort for K on Saturday. Haircut looks great.

S was gone for 3 days to Provo W conference with her sister L. What a great time, met a new friend, visited with Uncle J and Aunt L and G on the way home. Still working on the May wood craft...hurry this Friday. Adjusting to a full house now...all six of us home. Cooking the last of the Mormon Muffins for breakfast.

T done with school and working at the Pool. She took N and C to Toads on Friday night and met her cousin J on her first date. So much fun. She brought so much stuff home and has filled the hallway, her room and many other places.....

K done with School on Friday. Took after his Dad and missed a final. Moved a few baskets of stuff back home from G & G. Takes the longest showers in the family. Went through the Ogden temple on Saturday. Good to have family there in support. Will talk in Church on July 12th.... MTC in 71 Days.

N loved the go carts at toads. Keeps us on our toes. IEP at school on Wednesday to get ready for WHS. He also got a haircut. Wounds slowly healing from bike crash. Has been better about getting on the bus.

C done with gym. Doing well with Piano. Also loved toads. Likes to ask for "tires" in her sleep, silly girl. Doing her report on NC and has a box of travel guides.
