What We Are Asked To Do

We have been counseled to keep journals. There are some things that happen in life that should be shared and others more sacred to be kept for another time that I write in my personal journal. This blog is my way of sharing those things I want to share with all of you.

We Did Moving Clampett Style.

Okay, I am not sure how this picture looks I am blogging from my phone, so I cannot tell how good it is. This what we looked like going down the interstate on our way to Idaho. My father-in-law drove the 26 foot uhaul pulling a 6x12 uhaul trailer. My mother-in-law drove their pickup pulling a car trailer with our honda and four-wheeler. T drove his truck with dogs in the back, his fishing boat on top, pulling a truck bed trailer full and the boat trailer on top of it. I drove the expedition packed completely full. My brother-in-law drove our tahoe full of stuff for us.

What an experience. We are grateful to those who helped pack those trailers. We are grateful for family and their willingness to help us achieve our goals.

We did have T's clutch go out in York, Nebraska. The Lord blessed us by making sure it went out when he pulled into the gas station and not on the interstate. The chevy dealership was a mile away and so two and a half hours later, we were back on the road.

Stayed tuned for how I surprised my daddy.

Funny K Moment

My son went to the races with his sisters and grandparents last night. This morning I was asking him how he liked it and what happened, etc. K tells me the following...
"Mom, after the races were over, the cars slowed down and went back to their natural habitats in the back of trailers."

TIME FLIES

There is so much that has happened since the first of this year, and I did not blog about it because I was trying to surprise my daddy.  I think I was successful in that, so now I can share what has been going on publicly. 

This is the first opportunity since we have moved back to Idaho that I have had to actually get on the computer and do some blogging.  I have not pictures as of yet, because things are still being unpacked and situated. 

The biggest thing that happened was that we moved back to Idaho.

The next biggest thing is that I am going back to school.  I have had a week of class and like it so far. 

We were able to get two of our children into a charter school that we absolutely are very excited about.  And M and J are excited as well.  Hopefully, C will be soon because she is number 22, and K will have to wait until first grade.

M starts driver’s education in two weeks.  I am amazed at how the time has flown and how I somehow have a 15-year-old who is capable of driving.  On the positive side, it will be nice to have one more driver in the family because we cannot seem to get everywhere we need to sometimes. 

J will be doing girl’s camp this year.  She is not really sure about it, but I have every confidence that she will enjoy herself because one of my good friends is in charge of camp, and she is a very fun person. 

C and K are enjoying all the space we have to play outside and run around.  We are doing the summer movie program, so that is something they look forward to.

We have met up and reconnected with cousins, which did not take long at all.  I have been able to spend time with two of my sisters and hopefully I will get to see my brother and other sister very soon. 

I will blog more in detail when I get my camera connections unpacked and uploaded to the computer.

Have a great weekend!
