Sorry it has taken so long to post something new. We have been busy enjoying summer and visiting family. I really can't believe that school starts in a couple of weeks. Taylor and Ellie are actually really excited for it. I am a little sad, I miss the kids when they are gone. Anyway we just got back from another trip to Nevada. Justin's parents celebrated their 40Th wedding anniversary. Justin's sister put together a really fun party. We also went to the Lake and just had a great time spending time together. I am still trying to catch up on all the laundry, but we are so glad we went. Nothing else really new, I am doing okay on my weight loss, but I haven't seen how much weight I gained in Fallon..... I am afraid to look, we ate REALLY well. These pics are from a few Sundays ago. I used to struggle with Sundays before. It is supposed to be a day of rest, but I felt like I was working harder than ever. Getting the kids all ready for church, going to church, fixing a big dinner... Now I have learned to relax and enjoy the time my family gets to spend together. Church is still a little stressful, its hard keeping 5 little kids quiet for any amount of time, but its getting better. I do love seeing my kids all dressed up, even if it only lasts for a minute. Oh and Ellie begs me to wear her Christmas dress every week. This time I gave in.
"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." Thomas S. Monson
