The newest happenings

















It's October and I haven't posted a blog for awhile. So what have we been up to?
We went to Ensign and contributed some hard working hours of service. We had to cut logs into circles, cut the circles into pieces and then stack the pieces one by one into a log shed. It was fun...for the first five minutes. We were really grateful for the great opportunity to serve :-)
We got a new suburban! Yeah! It's so pretty! Kyle and I took off to the tri cities and found one with in an hour. The best feature: The built in entertainment package. Equipped with a DVD player for hours of enjoyment. Oh and the leather seats that heat up. I feel spoiled!!
The kids and I went to the tri cities and enjoyed a day school clothes shopping and having fun! We went to lunch at Red Robin then bopped around the stores and mall while we waited for the Suburban to be detailed. The kids found lots of entertaining things especially these cute animal masks. They thought they were a hoot! Especially Savannah!
I got to attend the Brad Paisley concert with Shana. We had so much fun!! Felt like we were 16 all over again. Her and I have a fun history of our adventures. This was one of them. Right when we sat down the guys next to us asked if we were single. We laughed so hard. It was a good concert to. We danced and sang to all of the songs. He had Darius Rucker and Justin Moore (who I actually thought was better than the Main act) The most entertaining part of the evening was watching all of the drunk people dancing and singing. Life is so much more entertaining when you are sober and you can watch all of the drunk people make fools of themselves!
I started working again. I got hired on at Perkin's Bakery as a waitress in hopes to get some extra income coming in. Because of the suburban getting stolen which caused us to have a car payment and the house in Warden not selling as quick as we had hoped, I will be working until we sell the Warden house at least. But it's ok. I like to work. I feel it gives me a sense of accomplishment. Sounds funny I know. Maybe that's why I've been a waitress for 12 years now. The tips are like instant appreciational gestures from customers. I love coming home everyday with instant money in my pocket! Plus I love to give great customer service :-)
Anywho...well that's about it. I'm excited for Halloween. We were going to go with the family theme but the kids just wanted to be different things so Savannah is going to be a blue butterfly (her favorite color is blue) Katelin is going to be a neon green witch, Wes is going to be a Zombie football player and Cody is going to be a Warewolf (gosh is that how you spell it?)
Happy Fall everyone!!
