Can You Hear The Bell Ring?

Ok - So I am so stinking excited! We are hitting the road tomorrow morning at 6:00 am! That's right folks - 6:00 in the morning! To go where you ask?? None other the the Polar Express in the Grand Canyon! I don't know who is more excited the kids or me! Yay! So it is a 8 hour drive! Yeah - we are going with a 5 year old and an 8 year old on an 8 hour drive and it is going to be AWESOME! Yeah! Dare I say... Awesome Blossom! Yes I do! You know something that is 1000 calories and 75 grams of fat is awesome!! So I will make sure that I take TONS of pics to show of the GRAND time... Yeah that pun was totally intended! Let me give you a little run down of the plans that we have...

Getting up...
Driving...
I am sure we will have to make a few potty stops...
Arive at our destentation...
Eat...
Look around...

Ok... I am bored! I will have to tell you all about it when we get home!

In other news...

If you can even believe it, everyone at our house is healthy. I could hear the gasps! I know! I am totally shocked myself. I am a little scared to brag about it though... So read the first part of this paragraph in a whisper! Tyson and Riley are both doing really well in school. They have been making their Christmas lists! Yikes! Really - what happened to the days when boys wanted Train Sets and girls wanted Dolls. I am thinking that I am going to have to call Hermie and ask him to swing by with something from "The Island of Misfit Toys" that is seriously what I can afford. Maybe a Spotted Elephant or a Charlie in the Box! Ok... I was going to put a picture of "Charlie in the Box" here - It won't let me!

Trent is doing great! Work is keeping him really busy! Poor guy. I tell you what though. Since his surgery, he is doing great! Maybe it is because he can breath... Maybe - Really I think that he is happy that I have put a little weight on... He always tells me that he likes a little Junk in the Trunk! Ok, I made that last part up. He is better though!

I am doing Thooper Dooper good! If my family is good, I am good!

I look forward to coming home from our vacation and posting all about it!

H1NWhat???

Yeah that's right! Trent has the Swine Flu - Ha - insert Cop jokes here!!! It has been the worst thing that I have seen. He has been sick for a week and now to top that all off... He has bronchitis. I thought that I was going to have to make a run for the ER last night! He seems to be feeling a lot better this morning! The kids Dr put Tyson on Tamaflu, but Riley and I are just going to have to take the chance of getting it I guess! I think that it is because the girls in my family are way tougher then the boys!

This past weekend the kidos and I put up the Halloween decorations! It was so fun! They were so excited! OK - So was I! I can't help it! I love decorating! Yesterday my Pop-in-law brought me over some pumpkins and a bail of straw - They look so cute! I will make sure to post some pics later!

IN other news! I put the last box away on Sunday! Tahhh Dahhh! It is true! It only took 2 months. I personally feel that is an awesome amount of time! Yay me! So, now I just have to get my big mirror and big pics hung and I am pretty much set - oh yeah - I need to get a garbage can for my downstairs bathroom! Then I will be almost!

I would also like to take this chance to give a shout out to my Little Bro - Jon! Just got an announcement in the mail! I have to say that my cute new niece Andy is an absolute doll! Well - she sure looks a lot like me!

Riley had a soccer game on Saturday and scored 2 goals! She is awesome! I would love to take credit for her awesome soccer playing abilities... but... anybody who saw me play soccer a few years would argue the point I am sure! To them I would just like to say that I was just giving the opposing team a fair chance! Gosh!

Well that is about it for now! I will get the super scary pics of my Halloween house posted ASAP!

Ok - I am just learning - sooo!

Here are a few pics!

Ok! So it has been a while! Here goes! I don't even know the last thing that was going on when I started this BLOG - So! We just got a new house in Syracuse and I am loving it! Finally a place where my kids can play outside - on sidewalks - with other kids! It is great! I am still at good old Roy City! I really am lucky to have a good job - considering all that is going on now days! Trent always says the same! I think that being a Police Officer would be exhausting - that is just me though! I just don't think that I could deal with DA's all day long! The kids are getting so big. Tyson is in 3rd grade and Riley started Kindergarten. I cried like a baby when I dropped her off the first day - I couldn't decide if it was because I was sad that my baby is in Kindergarten or if I was sad that she was "K C-ya Bye"! I am guessing that it is just a little of both. I am really going to try to get some pictures on here! I just took a whole bunch of the kids - I am just not exactly sure how to load them. I am also hoping to get some pics of the house on here! I will soon - I swear! I hope that everyone still checks this once in a while just to see if I have done anything! Love you all!

Pics Soon! I Swear!

OK! So I am going to get some pics soon I promise! I have just been so busy! With school, tumbling, basketball and dance... Well all of you other moms know! I just wanted to do a quick update and let everybody know that I haven't forgotten! I am going to do it! I am thinking next week! This week is just too full! Love you all!

First!

Ok! So this is it! Our first post! Very exciting! I guess I will say a little about us! Tyson is in the 2nd grade and just turned 8. He is the happiest little boy I know! He is so loving and has a huge heart! He is so sweet! Riley is in pre-school and just turned 5! She is just like her mom! Very sassy and strong willed! I know that this will be to her advantage later in life, but right now it is a little tough! I am going to get some pics posted - I promise! I am looking forward to keeping up on this blog and letting you all know what is going on with us!
