Feeling oh so Good

This day has been a long time in coming. Last week was really hard and I had a hard time doing anything but sleeping
BUT this week
has been completely different.
I am singing and dancing and I'll tell you all about the things I have planned about saving money so that I can spend it and the projects I have planned or am planning to do and how I'm going to get into shape and the things I'm going to do for my husband and the things I'm going to do for my kids and the things I'm going to do for myself and for the state of Idaho and for the United States and the things I'm going to do for the World, if only people would ask me...

Mothers Day

This Mother's Day was the best yet.

I got breakfast in bed.

Cold cereal

Glass of Milk

2 toasts heaped with grape jelly

After Church the hubby and kids made a wonderful dinner.


Mother's Day wouldn't be complete without lots of lovely letters and pictures.


From the girls I got beautiful letters stating:

I know you love me because I am gentle and kind

Mom, I love you because you are nice and remember me.

The notes contained different sized and colored hearts


From the man child he made comments like:

I know you love me because you make me food

Mom, I love you because you make me snacks.

The note contained a picture of fighting guys in a car.


Truly this was the best Mother's Day EVER

Still Alive

We are still alive.

My brother Jared has left his laptop in my lap so I decided to write a quick post.

We have made it though a Idaho winter and are excited for the warmer weather.

The kids are doing very well in school because the schools in Idaho Falls are behind the schools in Dodgeville. It was good because then the kids were able to focus on adjusting to a new school and making new friends.

Jim is enjoying work and our home is full of Melaleuca products.

There are two great things about living in Idaho:

We are closer to family and
I am playing in the Idaho Falls Symphony.

Being able to play in the Symphony has made this move so much easier for me. It has helped me stay positive.

Boy do we miss our friends in WI. We love you all!
