Someday I'll Be Famous...Or Not

Brielle has a shirt that says "Someday I'll Be Famous"...this morning she asked me what that meant.  I told her it means that you will be known by a lot of people, like MAYBE you will be on TV so everyone knows who you are and it COULD ALSO mean you have a lot money, that you are really rich. 

Brielle: So Miley Cyrus is famous AND rich?

Me: Yes exactly

Brielle: I want to be famous and rich. I want to be a ROCK STAR.

Me: Ok baby, whatever you want you can be.

Brielle: Well, will I still live with you?

Me: No honey, you will have so much money and you will buy your own house and it will probably be a big house.

Brielle: I changed my mind. I don't want to be famous.

Me: Why not?

Brielle: Because I love you and want to live with you in this house.

Me: Oh baby, You can buy a really big house and I will come live in it with you!!!

Brielle: No, I want to live in this house with you because you wake up good in this house.

Me: I wake up good in this house? What?

Brielle: When I come in your bedroom in the nighttime you wake up good in this house and you didn't wake up good in the house we just moved away from.

Me: Oh my Goodness...I love you Bri Bri!!

Here she is in her Rock Star outfit for school...We crimped her hair too.  She thinks she's pretty cool.

Thanks for the Email!!

 

I haven't blogged  for a while and I really had no intention to anytime soon,  but after opening my email today I decided I owe Casey a new post. It wont be funny or silly but because of her email I will do my best to post something good soon!! I hope she isn't mad but I'm posting her email because it meant SOOO much to me.  I haven't blogged because I honestly don't know what to talk about.  I am not going to pretend I'm doing fabulous by posting a bunch of bull crap lines..I'm not going to complain and share my every thought about what I am going through....I truly have not known what to say.  I am so grateful for those who have been there for me.  Thank You Casey for listening and for taking Bug this weekend and for the email..Thank You Jami for listening and listening and listening and for letting me cry and listening some more and letting me cry...Thank You Hil for listening and watching Roxy, for being so good to my girls and listening...Thank You Jeremy for loving me unconditionally, protecting me, providing for me, listening to me, understanding me, reassuring me and most of all for choosing me to be your wife. 

Hey Kizzy,

Just got home from work and of course can't sleep so I am goofing around on the computer and just like always, the first place I go to play around and be nosy is your blog... Well, too bad for me, it's the same one it's been for quite a while now.  Instead of feeling bad for myself like I normally do, I thought I'd let you know just how much I miss reading all your funny little stories and seeing your fun pictures and stuff...  Kiz, I know that you are having a hard time right now and I just wanted to tell you that even though some days are really really bad, try to keep your chin up and don't forget who you are!  You are bright, funny, silly, smart, pretty, best dressed and the best accessorizer (sp) that I know!  And you have great hair too!! 

Things will get better soon I'm sure, just try to focus on the things you have to be thankful for to help you get through the dark times.  You have so many people around you that love you and your family so much and will be there for you at any moments notice when needed. 

If you need anything please let me know, and I mean that!  Talk to you soon....

Love,

Casey

We headed up north for the weekend for my niece Alissa's baptism and Jeremy also got his stitches out.  He is doing really good and I think he will be very happy with his "NEW" feet!!

We took Jami's girls with us while they had a fun weekend in VEGAS!!   So off we go, Jeremy, his fabulous wifey, 6 girls and Roxy (also female)...I'm so lucky to have such a great guy! :)

The guys put orange energy drink in the humming bird feeder. It was hilarious!! There are so many of them at the cabin.  They are really cool to watch.

The fire tower has 73 steps to the top.  The guys who stays up there talked to the girls about fire safety and they each got a smoky bear goody bag.

This is Grandpa's pinzgauer.  It is a Swiss Army vehicle.  The kids love riding in it through the trails.  I actually do to! It's a blast!!!

Crazy August

My computer has been down for a few weeks...I had ovarian cysts rupture about 3 weeks ago(the pain was worse than having my c-sections..it was awful!!)... Jeremy had surgery on both of his feet a week and a half ago and has been in a wheelchair...Thank Heavens the girls are back to school!!  It's been a crazy month.  I am definitely ready for my long weekend in Cali with Jami for her birthday in September!!  WooHoo!!!

Jeremy has flat feet and basically had arthritis in his left from the way he walks. Dr. Hall (aka Ryan my bro-in-law) scoped his left foot and inserted stay-pegs in both his feet which helps him have an arch so that he can walk better.  He is doing really good and just started walking today.  If I was a better wife I would have taken a picture of him walking with the shoes that he has to wear..he looks hilarious.  I don't think he finds it as funny as I do:)

The girls are liking their new school and get to ride the bus.  I was a little nervous at first about the bus thing...ya know that maybe older kids would pick on them or something but so far they have said the older girls are really nice to them and there is one boy that is not mean just annoying (I told them get used to it cuz that's just how boys are)!!

I think I had too many kids!!!

So I am totally going crazy!! Like pull my hair out, cranky, depressed, feeling sorry for myself crazy!! I am not one of those awesome moms that doesn't go crazy after the 4th week into summer.  9 weeks is too long for my kiddos to be at home in the summer...Add on the extra week we have now becuz we moved so we don't start until the 17th! Are you freakin kidding me?? Jeremy might be raising these kiddos on his own cuz I'm thinkin I'm on my way out... So thanks to Rhegan they are totally into making friendship bracelets and it has kept them quite busy.  Ohh, the freedom I am so looking forward to in a little over 2 weeks when my kiddos are back at school where they belong using their brains and not their high pitched girly screams and sibling rivalry...she's in my bedroom and I don't want her in here...she called me stupid...she won't play pet shops with me...she made the mess not me!!!

I'm really not a horrible mom...I took them to see Aliens in the Attic today and went to Dippin Dots...My awesome hubby is takin me out tonite (I seriously love  date nite!!) and Taylor is babysitting...Taylor has been so awesome this summer...I don't know what I'd have done without her :)
