2 more days :)

Until I get to see my sister again. We have been cleaning house (not that it's dirty, but it really needed a good fixing up!) and washing laundry for the past three days!!! I do not think that laundry in my house will ever be finished. My kids have a tendency to take blankets out of the linen closet and make "tents" in our living room, and because we all know how sticky kids are, I always feel a need to wash them afterwards... so ya.. endless cycle. I cannot wait for the kids to start school this year. I will only have Ben (for at least half the day because kindergarten at this dumb school is only half day and it's only dumb because of that) so I think I will be able to have more of a social/living life for those couple hours at least. HAHA I know Sam is super excited about starting school. He's one smart SERIOUS little dude.

Its been a while!!!

I guess upon discovering the ease and loveliness that is facebook I have seriously neglected my blogging duties, and decided now is as good a time as ever to update a bit.. haha We haven't really been up to anything, our electric bill here at this new house has gone down considerably, and we are trying to get back on track!
We've had a few family nights playing Apples to Apples (which I just LOVE!!!) and it's nice to see all the kids together and playing. My sister is coming to visit in 3 days FOR 9 days so I am SURE I will have pictures to post of her trip and the visit. I have yet to meet my nephew Brandon who is 2 and a half now...AND she hasn't seen Ben since he was 3 weeks? old... Other than that, I have been enjoying the outdoors when the weather is as nice as it has been!!! I have successfully mowed my ENTIRE lawn and even have a few sunflowers growing!!!
