Capistrano Beach

We went to Jeremy's sister Tammy's beach house last week.  It was a fun & relaxing trip.  I'm scared of ocean water but Rhegan convinced to try boogie boarding so I decided to go for it.  Jeremy, Rhey, Taylor & I headed out on our boards and I knew I shouldn't have done it!!  Taylor & Rhey took a wave in then Jeremy so now I'm out there alone so I go for it.  The next thing I know I'm being sucked under the wave...I try to get up and go for it again and BAM it takes me under again!!!  Now I'm panicking and convinced I'm going to drown..I'm sucking down way too much salt water, trying to catch a  break from the waves but I can't get to my feet and run!! I don't really know how it happened but I finally washed up on shore.  I'm gagging, snot running out my nose, sand is covering my entire body (inside & out  if you know what I mean!!), bleeding on my leg & my a** & Taylor, Rhey & Jeremy are LAUGHING at me!!! My girls love me though...they were worried about me!!  I will NEVER do that again.  The ocean is not my friend.  I'm gonna stick to laying out.  We played lots of sand volleyball & smash ball, flew kites, watched movies, ate yummy food, went to the park, had Thrifty ice cream (chocolate malted crunch Mmmm!!!) & bike rides!!

LIFE IS CRAZZZZYYYYYY!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BABY BRIELLE!! SHE IS 5 TODAY!!! I LOVE YOU SWEET GIRL!!  PLEASE DON'T GET ANY OLDER!!!  It's a good thing Julianne is so accepting of my daughter who has now kissed her son 6 times on the lips!!!  Although Cooper doesn't seem to be avoiding her..in fact he wants to play all the time...hahaha :)

Trying to keep my sanity this summer...Tylar & Kiley fight like cats & dogs.  School doesn't start till Sept!!  I'm NOT looking forward to the two of them as teenagers!!  I doubt Jeremy & I will both survive the drama...1 of us is bound to CHECK OUT!!! 

We moved AGAIN!!! Lived with Cindy & Bart for 4 wks & my parents for 2 wks until the house was ready!! It's just down the street from our last place...we are pretty much settled, just a little painting left to do!   We are trying out a new school.. girls will be going to Adams Traditional Academy.  I'm looking forward to it..uniforms again (awesome!!) & overall think it will be a better education.  I start the phlebotomy program Sept 7th..very excited & nervous!! (more nervous about having to interview for a job!!!) 

We are heading to Jeremy's sisters beach house in Cali this Friday...looking forward to relaxing in the sun that isn't 115 degrees, a little boogie boarding, cool nights, sand castles and just good family fun!!

Dance Recital

Results are In!!

WOO WOO!! I aced all three sections of my final.  I was so stressed!!  If anyone feels like taking me to lunch to celebrate  I would have no problem with that!! Or cold stone for some ice cream:) OR if you are really feeling nice you can by me these amazing heels..I've had my eye on them for a few days now...I'm  trying to decide if they are a want or a need...I'm leaning toward need...they will be a great addition to my collection!!

A little bit of this, a little bit of that

I got a 99% on my final exam two weeks ago.  I had another final yesterday and had a complete break down!!! It was critical thinking essays and I had 1.5 hours for each section.  I felt ready and confident and started the 1st section and when I looked at the time remaining I had 30 mins left and I was only on the first essay out of 5!!!! I was taking my damn sweet time obviously and seriously panicked at this point.  I started crying and omg!!! I was a mess!!!  I did however finish with 2 mins left on the clock...I took a deep breath and started the 2nd section and and onto the 3rd.  I aced the 1st section!! Woo Woo...and am anxiously awaiting my scores on the other 2.  Holy moly, I have never seen myself act like such a freak.  I'm pretty sure my hubby and kids have but off the top of my head I can't recall any other time of complete insanity:)

Stetson Hills has a program where each semester certain kids are chosen to go in a limo to chick-fil-a.  Bug was picked!!! She was so excited.  It was a yellow hummer limo...so cool:)  We've had her into the doctor alot over the past 6 months.  She is still gaining weight.  She has been tested for diabetes, thyroid, pituitary, and so on.  Everything is normal except her metabolism which is off the charts low.  She is having night terrors and awful headaches and stomach aches and she is so tired all the time. We are waiting to hear back from Phoenix Childrens Hospital for a date to have her tested for sleep apnea.  Hopefully we can get some answers soon so my sweet girl can feel better.

 

And now!!! the best pictures of me in camo!!!! Seriously, I should wear my dad's jacket more often:)

Jami is sporting my dad's plaid jacket.  How awesome are we with our big glasses and hunting coats???

Love this girl!!! I'm so lucky I could train her to be as cool as me!

I know! I know! I look GOOD!!!!

This is Victoria...or is it Mary? I can't remember...I took her down!!

My posture may not be correct but nobody wants to break into my house!!

He thinks I'm sexy...he wants to kiss me...love me and marry me...oh wait he already did that!!! I know how to shoot now so he will NOT EVEN THINK about leaving me:))

That's all folks!!

 

 

Gotta have POINTS to start Kindergarten

Brielle had 4 points yesterday.  For those of you who don't know what points are, they are shots.  Funny little girl.  While we were waiting for the doctor to come in, she said how bad do the points hurt?  Where do they do the points?  How many points do I have to get to go to kindergarten? Did Tylar and Kiley have to get points to go to kindergarten? Will I cry when the doctor gives me points?  When it was all over, she didn't shed a tear.  I took her to the dollar store to pick out a few things for being so brave.  However, last night she was miserable.  Running a fever and so cranky.  I snuggled with her until she fell asleep.  She is such a sweetheart!!  I'm not sure I'm ready to send her off to kindergarten this fall...she's my baby!!
