On My Mind

I know I should update with pictures...but today I am just writing a few things that are on my mind instead.
-Today was such a good day. I had Sharing time at church and it went so great. Dustin is out of town for a bit so I was worried about having to do sharing time and have a sceaming baby and doing the whole church thing by myself. I rely alot of Dustins help at church. But it ended up being so good. I had 3 friends come and take Kyson from me so I didn't have to worry about him the whole time and sharing time was so much fun! I loove loooove love being in Primary. The kids are so awesome.
--I want to know what is up with the bald greeter lady at walmart. Why does she greet everyone except for me? In the 5 years I have lived here I have not once got a "Welcome to Walmart" or a "Have a nice day." She'll greet everyone around me but not me. Weird. Very weird.
--I have two favorite times of the day. The first one is in the morning when I am eating breakfast with my sweet little angel boys that could do no wrong. I love listening to them talk and laughing with them. The second favorite time of day is nightime..when I am putting my monsters to bed and I am done listening to whining, crying, tattleing and teasing. aaaahhhhh....the sweet sound of silence.
--Why do people (and when I say 'people' I am meaning all the boys that live in my house) think that throwing clothes on the floor is as good as putting them in the dirty clothes hamper?! Do I enjoy scouring the house on wash day looking for dirty clothes? No...I don't. Especially when I find little boy socks on the fan in their room or underwear tucked in corners or 4 pairs of shorts on the opposite side of the bed that I sleep on (I'm not naming names on this one ok Dustin).
--I am liking my new haircut.
---I like the Dustin doesn't get mad at me very often for being such a HUGE backseat driver. Maybe he thinks that I am such a good driver that he enjoys learning from the best. :)
--I love love my family get togethers. We have so much fun and I am so sad that my sister is moving across the country and that my parents are leaving on a mission. They are always so willing to drop everything and watch our boys for us, and then spoil them rotten when they see them. My dad is full of funny songs that the boys LOVE to learn, he wrestles with them, he hikes with them, chases them around pretending he is strange Uncle George,and gives them way too much sugar. My mom always plans activities for them so they are never bored, she never spends money on herself but will spoil the kids with everything, she knows the likes and dislikes of each grandkid and plans activies around that, and the best thing is that she sits and will just talk and listen to them. She makes them feel like everything they say is so important. What am I going to without them for a year and a half? And it totally sucks that Becky is moving. I love having her so close so it will be weird not knowing when I will see her again.
---I love the new bark collar we got for the dog. :)
---I wonder where we will be in 5 years. Dustin wants to move out of country. I use to think that sounded like a great adventure, but now I am feeling old and like the feeling of being settled somewhere for my kids' sake. I guess I wouldn't mind trying it out for a few years though.
---What in the world did I do to deserve Dustin. He is such an amazing person!

Well, guess that should be enough rambling. I have some pet peeves I'd like to add to that list, but we'll leave those for next time.

Cutie

Look how cute my little Boston boy is. Ok, the hat is huge on him, but isn't the pompom on top so cute.

SANTA!!

We made our yearly visit to Santa in Delta. It is always so fun! I think this is the first year that Jace didn't cry! Jace was really upset while standing in line this year. He is very worried that he isn't going to get what he is asking for. He REALLY REALLY wants his own Mountain Dew for Christmas and a piece of coal. Yes...coal. So, when your son asks for coal for Christmas...what do you threaten him with?

Dreyton was excited to ask for a Nintendo Dsi...but goofed up and asked for the Ds instead. He wanted to cry afterwards. Good thing we can write Santa letters to clear things up.
Ky with Santa.

My sweet baby.

Who's picture is this anyway?

So, I was trying to take a picture of just me and Kyson....it didn't really work out that way though.

It started out with just us two...

Then Jace decided to pop in...
Then Dreyton and Cameron (I call him my 4th son, he is here so much he is part of the family) had to come and join in....

And then I got pushed out.

Kysons Baby Blessing

We had such a great time and Kyson's baby blessing. It was so fun to have family around! We are so lucky to have such great supportive families! I love them!

Jaces preschool Halloween party. He's the football player.

Halloween

I am so far behind in blogging. Life is a little overwhelming and busy with a newborn. Who knows, I might even cancel this blog all together. Till then, here is a couple pictures of Halloween.

This guy is awesome! He has on 3 feet tall stilts and is so creepy looking. The whole neighborhood loves it!

My little vampire.

Freaky eyed mummy

My cute little boys

Carving pumpkins...yes, my boys got my weak stomache and we use gloves to carve pumpkins.

And Jace is wearing his every day black marks under his eyes, he thinks he is a real football player.
