Still the Sweetest Boys Ever!!

Our weather has stayed very warm until just recently. I wanted to share a sweet picture I took just before we went into our Sacrament Meeting at church. It was taken just a few weeks ago. Aren't they just adorable? I love Alexander in his "Southern Fancy Pants", and hope you Northerners will forgive me for dressing him this way. It is a true "Deep South" Southern tradition, and is ACTUALLY Remmy's outfit he wore 12 years ago when he was a baby!! WHAT am I doing with the same exact outfit my older son wore over a decade ago, you ask?? Well....unfortunately, I am a packrat......I told you I needed to clean my house!! I had better get crackin' !!!

Life is What Happens While We are Making Plans!!

WOW!! Is life ever busy!! Between three children in three different schools, one baby still at home. a football player, a cheerleader (cheering for the football games...now for the basketball games...all 112 of them including the 9th grade, the JV and the Varsity), wrestling season (ugh! I hate it when they squeeze, smash, and get sweat all over my son!!), drama club and the two performances so far (Charlotte's Web and the Christmas Pageant), band concerts, band competition and travel performances, soccer season for Kylen (which, by the way....they call "foot ball in Russia),church activities, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, and....HOMEWORK!!....working for me (oh, and by the way I took a second job temporarily.....mainly because I was "temporarily insane", and shopping for food, and cooking, etc.etc.etc......OH! Did I forget to mention "cleaning the house"?? Well, that must be because it has NOT been done in a while!! HA!! Oh, I know....I have a day off from work tomorrow....THAT is what I can do in my spare time! I have had so many aspirations for this blog....and all of them have seem to have gone by the wayside......and lost in the flurry and hustle and bustle of everyday lifes schedule. I am hoping to make a resolution to blog because I really want to make a contribution that matters, and provide help for those who are seeking answers, and I know some of you are just plain curious as to how we are all doing. I am thinking now maybe I should just blog to save my own sanity!! Somewhere out there in the world, I have some interested readers.....or I wouldn't have over 10,000 readers looking at my blog!! So...as my Mother would say...."Come on Susan, Get it together!!"
