A list.

Just a small one. 
1. We took the kids to Roaring Springs a couple of weeks ago and had a darn good time. 
Especially since we got to spend time with the Fowlers. 
(I'm not sure who those people are in the background but they will forever be remembered.)
 2. Last weekend we were in St. George for the baptisms of our 
niece and nephew~ which was amazing. 
We're so glad we got to be there!
 3. Josh is still just as cute now as he was when he was in Kindergarten. 
Especially when he sleeps with Curious George, maybe even more so. 
4. The kids all started school and it was a success! 
I dropped the boys off and then proceeded to run my fastest six miles yet...
as I've told many people, I was running away from my tears. Literally. 
 (josh has now worn this shirt probably 4 times since last Wednesday...I keep washing it and he keeps wearing it. It doesn't matter to him that he has a weeks worth of new shirts to wear. 
He insists on looking like a cowboy.)


5. I plan on updating everyday from now until the end of the week. 
Maybe that will help me get back in the habit.
Lately about the only habit I've had is running. 
Running, running and more running. 
But I'm not tired of it...yet. 
We'll see if I still want to run come October 6.

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...
