Our activities today....

*  Cleaned the house
* Jumped on the bed in our undies (Josh, not me. That would be weird.)
* Ate at Carls Jr. (gasp!! Fast Food?? unheard of here! joking~kind of.)
* Picked up Trevor from the airport. HALLELUJAH! He's been in Washington D.C. for the Glenn Beck rally. He got to visit a lot of really cool places and took some really good photos that I'll share tomorrow. I know, I know. You want them now, but you will just have to wait. :)
* Made lasagna and salad and brownines as a homecoming treat for daddy. Nothing fancy just yummy.
We missed him soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. Stephen cried every night for him and every night, it broke my heart. 
* Break-danced. Well, Stephen and Joshua did. They did the robot too. And the worm. 


So that's about it..... 


Oh wait.. that's right! The kids started school today!!! Which they loved by the way. Totally excited to go back tomorrow. That's a success, I'd say...







Thank heavens I took advantage of Old Navys "hoodies for 8$" deal cause it was a chilly morning!
(Do you like my "cowpie" wreath? No one else can see the resemblance but I can. How about you? I can't look at it without thinking of Pioneer Fires.)
What a day, what a day. It ended up quite fabulous.

Beautiful kids. Teachers probably feel lucky too have them.

What?! Trevor was there?! That's the coolest thing ever! I can't wait to hear all about it and see some awesome pictures.
How adorable are your kids? Emily & Anna look like twins in that picture.

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
