Back to School


Back to school and am loving the fact that we are all back on a schedule. Adjusting to new classes and new students have made for a long week. The kids seem to be loving their schedules and I have a class full of personality. I wouldn't want it any other way. This next week we will be jumping in with both feet as we move to a more routine schedule in my classroom.
Got some much awaited for news on Thursday. Colton will be flying in to SLC on Oct. 12 at 7:07 p.m. I'm sure the time from when I get out of school that day until we leave to go pick him up will seem like FOREVER! Can't wait for the day to get here!
Cameron will be ordained an Elder this next week and will soon have his papers ready to send in. I am looking forward to the time that Colton and Cameron will have together before Cam leaves. I'm sure Colton will have some good advice for his as he prepares to enter the mission field. Don't think I could be any prouder of those two boys and for their diligence to serve their Heavenly Father.

CRAZY~

It has been a crazy month. I start back to school in 2 days and can't seem to get back into that frame of mind. I definitely wanted to stay busy this summer but think I have overkilled it. Blogging and working part-time have consumed a lot of my summer. I am trying to finish up started projects and get back to a normal routine. I guess I better hurry. I only have 2 days. UGH!
My computer crashed!!! Until I get it fixed our blog will be pictureless. Hopefully it isn't too long before I can post current pictures.
The kids are all ready to head back to school and Cameron is working on getting his papers completed and turned in so he can get his mission call. We hope to have that all wrapped up by the end of the month. So crazy to think that I have one coming home and one leaving. Hope it's a little easier the second time around.
We have Taylor living with us at the moment. Bad choices make for bad consequences. We hope that by staying here we can help her get back on the right track. She knows what she needs to do and by staying with us she feels that she can do that. Rules here may be a little stricter that at her home but she was told what to expect before coming and she still chose to come. We love her and hope that we can make a difference for the better.
Only 57 more days!! WOOHOO! Can't wait until I see that kid come down the stairs at the airport. I just hope I can contain myself until he gets to the bottom and that I don't run up the stairs to meet him..LOL. I think I need to hire someone to take pictures so I can post the great reunion. Take care all! We love ya!
