I'm Soooo Tired...

Seriously, I'm so tired. Don't know why I'm typing other then I realize I haven't posted since July, so I guess I'm due. We've almost gone a whole football season and not one football post....its been a better season then I expected it to be. Last week blew, but other then that, not too bad at all. Last home game tomorrow and we're not going...Chris couldn't get off work and taking the kids by myself doesn't sound all that fun. Maybe I'll see if Grandpa wants to come over and watch them earlier and I'll go to the game on my own...I think we still have 1 ticket that Ray hasn't sold yet...he's better then KSL.com.

Lets see, what's happened since July?

School started, Zach's in Kindergarten and his teacher loves him so much she got emotional when telling Chris about how much she loves him...boy has her wrapped too...seriously that kid knows how to work people. Either going to be a saint or criminal...I sure hope he chooses option 1 :) How could anyone not love that kid. He makes my heart warm and I wish I could take credit for it, but I can't. He just came prepackaged that way from Heavenly Father.

Tay and Steph are big girls and so smart. Steph told me the other day that no boys in her class have a crush on her...I told her that they do, she just doesn't know it. I also told her that if she is smart, she won't worry about boys as that is a total waste of time....just be friends with them and if she is smart she'll be the nice, kind, sunny, funny cute girl that she naturally is and everything will work out just fine. I'll just pray that Heavenly Father sends her a boy just like her father but not until she is 23. Taysia on the otherhand can't walk into a room without everyone following her around...boys included. Hopefully not a sign of things to come. We were watching the CMA's the other night and as Keith Urban came on, she said "he's cute!" Seriously, she is in 2nd grade. Although I remember being in 2nd grade and loving Andy Gibb and Donny Osmond and Lynn Swann and Sugar Ray Leonard...she is just like me but with her Father's charisma and that scares me even more....

We got a dog. Max Oaken Smith..a 3 yr old Dandie Dinmont mix from the Humane Society. Seems like a pretty good dog...kind of acts like a little old man sometimes. Reminds me a ton of Sissy, Grandma and Grandpa Z's dog from my childhood.

I won free tickets off of Facebook to go see U2 in Las Vegas. On the way down the car broke down outside of Beaver on I-15. Ray called Mark Emery and told him if he came and picked me up he'd buy him a ticket to see the show...and he did. It was so fun and an amazing concert. I got the flu or something when I got home...And we got a new car.

We got a new car just like our old car...just a 2010 model instead of a 1997 model. We were due, but I hate having a car payment again...yuck! But it does have blue tooth and XM and those are my favorite new toys! Welcome to the 21st century :)

Chris got put into the Bishopric...2nd Counselor...that has been interesting and we are being blessed. We miss him and sometimes its hard for me to not be jealous of the time he gives there that I wish he was giving here, but then I remember that God was gracious enough to share him with me, I need to share him with others. He never ceases to amaze me with what a good man he is, so I guess I should share. We'll be married 14 years next week, seems like forever and a brief second all at the same time. I'm hoping we can go away for the weekend and just snug and be for a few days, no work, no school, no church, just us, that would be nice....I can't remember or imagine my life without him in it.

Sick sick and more sick...seriously with 3 kids in school now, someone is always sick and it seems like a never ending cycle. So far nothing more serious then a few fevers, a little throw up and a couple of runny noses. Let there be Hand Sanitizer!

It's Thanksgiving next week...its been quite a fall and a year to be thankful for. Hopefully I haven't forgotten anything. It is supposed to snow all weekend...great fun! :)
