Back to School





It is that time of the year again and I am so torn! I LOVE having my kids home this summer because we had a terrific time but at the same time, now that they are all in school I can get a lot more done around the house! Okay- so theoretically, I should be doing a lot more but taking it slow for one week has been nice! Tonight I went to the Temple to be with my sister in law Emily. Her and her husband took out thier endowments today. I sure did need to go as I have been so restless about my life. Drum roll please...........................................

I have enrolled at Dixie State!!! Thats right- its back to school for me too!

We will have to see how it goes- I have registered for 13 credits. Not sure how that is going to work with being a mom, and Adam going out of town.

Go Rebels! (these are pics of the kids first day of school- after Makenzie went to her first day of 6th grade we took her and her friends out to celebrate at DQ)

Oh don't worry everything is going to be fine, you will be home just in time for the kiddos to get out of school, so you can easily morph from student, right back into "supermom" as soon as you walk through the front door. You just might not get in as much quality shopping time as you had before but oh well, to bad so sad... good luck! Luv your guts!

Ohhhhh, I can't wait for school to start. Only one more week for my kids. I told Matt the other day, if we were still in St. George the kids would be in school today!! I think I can wait. We have a fun trip planned for the zoo next week. One last hoorah of summer.

Way to go girl on going back to school! You better learn to fight off all those college boys cause they're gonna think you are HOT!! They'll die when they hear you're married with children. You look like a college student! Have a great time. I miss ya!

I have been loving having the kids back to school. Its so quiet! And the kids don't seem to fight as much. I love it that you are going to college. Maybe I will see you around....I am taking a few classes myself.

13 credits! What the heck is wrong with you lady? You don't think you are busy enough already? By the way you are a freak, you don't look like me when I am 20 weeks prego. Nice try! So when you aren't too busy with the 21 year old boys and the 18 year old girls at dixie, give me a call and we will go to lunch.

So, I thought of you this morning as I was eating a toaster waffle covered in syrup for breakfast. Wondered if you're still enjoying your egg whites for breakfast. Ha ha. I guess we won't be laughing though when I get my mind serious about it too.
Congrats on the schooling. I have had to put mine off - it was too stressful to go while Dustin was/is and have our little youngens, so I will eventually join back into the world of schooling - now is just not the time. You will be great!!

It's so nice to have the kids back in school....sanity again!!!

About Me

My photo
Adam and I have been married now for 14 years! To make a long story short- we met at the end of June, had our first date on July 4th, and were married on Sept 1, 1995. All I have to say, is "it was in his kiss." Adam is now a regional manager with Vita-mix. It has been a great blessing to have him here at home so that he can witness his children doing and saying all the fun things they do. We love where we live, but really do miss living close to both our parents and siblings. We have so much fun when we are all together and I am so lucky to have 4 fun loving wonderful sister in laws,lots of friends and 4 amazing BEST friends to hang out with. I know many of you will find this shocking but one of my best friends is my mother in law! I know that I can call on her at any time just to share a good laugh. She has given me the best thing a woman can give away- her son. I know- grab the tissue, I'll wait. Seriously- I love life and above all I am so grateful to know that MY FAMILY IS FOREVER!
