Not to worry..

I realize it's been four days since I have updated my blog...Oh the horror! 

So here we go...

We all smell like chips here in our house. Lays Salt and Vinegar, to be exact. We went swimming on Saturday and all six of us got burnt. After lots of tears from the pain, Trevor was given the suggestion to put vinegar on the burns. It's suppose to relieve the pain and prevent blistering.
We tried it and we got hungry, dang it.
And we're all still in a little bit of pain.

This week we are busy packing up. We move in a week and I have one box packed. I'm in denial that the closing on the house will go smooth with absolutely no problems. Which is why I've put off the packing.
No worries though. I shine under pressure (I'm just saying that. I don't actually shine...pressure sucks.)

Today the boys played this game:


You can't really tell from the picture what game it is they're playing cause I took it through the window. But I think it's cricket or croquet or something like that.
Being on the internet, I'm sure I could find out real easy but Trevor is snoring very charmingly behind me, reminding me that it's bedtime so I'll have to find out later what game exactly Joshy and Stephen were playing.

And now it's time for bed.

Good night.

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...
