Is it time to update?





Well to start off, we moved into a new home, it was a major project and of course is not even close to being done.  But we love it!! It was built in the 1940's and has all the character that comes with that period style home.  Of course I came in and went bold because that is who I am, I love bold color!  We love our new ward, and our neighbors.  We couldn't feel more blessed or good about where we are.

Dustin is working and going to school, we had to put off school for a couple semesters to buy and work on our house, but he is signed up for the summer and starts on Tuesday.  He is almost ready to apply to a  Nursing program, most likely in March.  He has been mowing lawns filling in where he can at All Things and working hard to get our house into shape.  He was just called to be in the Elders corm presidency and he is nervous about that.  I know he will do a great job though, and it will be good for him.  Did I mention that we have been married for 10 years now?  How amazing is that?  Time flies too fast, I sure am glad he is mine!!

I have not been up to any knew endeavours.  I run everyone around, we are down to one car right know, makes life a little more hectic. I clean the gym for advanced gymnastics, still do my vinyl, and take care of my babies.  I have the best calling in the world, I teach the 11 years old that have already turned 12, so then I get to go to relief society after, how cool is that?  Yah, I am loving it!!

Dagan and Rayney are out of school for the summer.  I am so happy, I love summer break and having them home all day.  Dagan, Rayney and Corban have been doing gymnastic, they are loving it.  The boys are more for recreation and Rayney did level 3 team this last year.  They are all getting so strong.  They are such good kids, I love that they are getting older and can help me out so much.  They are getting more responsible and I see them growing and changing all the time.  Oh, Dagan turned 8, did I blog about that?  He was baptized, I an hardly believe he is that old!  Rayney is seven, and Corban is 5 and, drum roll, finally 30 pounds.

 Lincoln and Skotlynd are both energetic and keep me on my toes.  Lincoln is just hilarious, he is 3 now and loves to pretend.  Anything from cowboys, pirates, magician, you name he is it.  We just had his Cardiology appointment and sometime having small kids has it's advantages.  Because he is so small they are going to hold off on his next surgery until next summer, unless things start to go down hill.  he is doing so well though, I don't think we should have any issues.  Skotlynd is really starting to talk and her personality is coming out, she will be two in a week. Can you believe it?  I have will have a two year old and I am not even pregnant.  She is potty trained and I cant tell you how good it feels to have no kids in diapers.  I am loving it!!

Well goodness, maybe if I kept up with my blog I could write about all the little fun things that happen or the cute things they do, but as it is you just get a broad overview of our life.  Well I better get back to my kids, later!
