Help!!!!!

How do I get this stupid photobucket box thing out of my blog? Does it come up when you read my blog?

Terry Fox Run!!

So, lately I have been a little into running. I wake up at 6:30 and go on a run before Chad has to go to school, and before the kids wake up. It makes my day go by way smoother. I have been getting a little addicted to it. Any of you runners would be able to testify to that!! So anyway, the Cardston Terry Fox Run was put on by my cousin. She is a wonderful person, who lost her husband almost 2 years ago, to cancer. A bunch of the family try to go in it every year, and this was my first year. I loved it!! It was nice to go participate and help with the fight against such a horrible disease. I have had numerous people that are close to me have cancer, and a few who have died from it, so it kinda hits close to home. It was great to see such an awesome support for the Cardston race. It was fun to be able to spend time with my cousins, and catch up!! Oh, and at the end of it, Aunt Patti fed us the best hamburgers smothered in some sort of sweet sauce, squished between her homemade buns!! To Die For!!!!! And homemade lemon cake with super yummy icing for dessert!! We love you Aunt Patti!! I am excited to be able to do this race again next year. Although I do hope for some nicer weather. I would have to say that I was absolutely FREEZING! The pictures will show. Oh ya, and as for the way I look, just remember the circumstance, please!

Fews Flash!!

Hey Everybody.......

Did you guys know that at the end of your post there is a place where people can put comments about what you wrote?!!!!(I'm kidding) Apparently I did not, but now I do, and I read peoples comments dated back to a year ago!! I know, I'm slightly retarded, but I really did not know!! So, thank-you to everyone who has commented, and if you asked questions, I'm sorry but I will not answer them, because you probably wouldn't remember them anyway!! So, please keep commenting, I will read them, and I will comment back, I promise. You'll all just have to bear with me!!!

Flipped Around!!??!!

So, i know i'm not a very good blogger. I do have good intentions, really, but life is busy and I feel guilty when I'm on the computer. It seems like such a waste of time!! But I enjoy it, and i know its important to journal, so heres another crack at it.

My life right now is.....wierd, crazy, a little scary, exciting, and hectic. Let me explain.

So we (Chad and I) have decided that the best thing for our family is for Chad to go to school. So, he is doing upgrading in Lethbridge at the college, and then going to Sait in Calgary next year. We decided to put our house on the market to see if it would sell, and guess what.......it sold in 2 weeks!!! Crazy!! We had to move out quick so our August was a whirlwind of packing, cleaning, moving, and going crazy amongst it all. Chad can not stand the thought of paying someone else's mortgage, which I can understand, so renting a house was not an option for us. So to solve that problem we decided to look for a house to buy. And the pics above are what we found!!! We wanted to keep it cheap, so our options were few. It is small and old but we see some potential. I have to admit, I do get a little tiny bit depressed each time I go over there, but with some positive thinking I quickly get excited again. The previous owner was a smoker, so really, thats the biggest issue. As soon as I walk in the house I feel like I am surrounded by 8 people blowing smoke into my face, but you get used to it after a while, hehe!! With some help from numerous coats of kilz primer, then some texturing, then some more coats of primer, and a coat of color, the smell will no longer be an issue. Then some new flooring and lights will make it nice and cozy!!!! I hope we can get cracking on these things, hopefully to be in by Thanksgiving!! But who really knows, no one is ever done by there estimated date, honestly!!!

So, you'll have to wait and see how it turns out!! I am so very excited, I will post when we are all done. And I'm sure you'll get some updates along the way!! Although with my past blogging record.......you might see by next year!

Halloween!!

So, we had a fun Halloween. I wasn't sure if Luke would get into his costume. He was not really excited about it and when I tryed to get him to try it on he didn't want anything to do with it. But in the end, when he saw all his cousins dressed up, he decided to get in his too! We took the kids to the trunk or treat at the church. Luke was LOVING the fact that people were giving him candy. He thought it was very cool. Then we went to a party at Aunt Brenda's and had some more fun. There were some pretty hardcore costumes. Chads family really know how to do Halloween!! Chads aunts convinced him to dress up as a girl, it was pretty halarious. I think that in every picture Luke is picking his nose. He is in the nose picking stage and driving me crazy!! i don't know if I should just ignore it or get after him every time he does it!?!? Anyway, it was a fun night!! I'm just excited for Christmas now!!

I am a Handi!!

So, I kind of fell of the blogging band wagon and then tried to jump back on. To my suprise I totally forgot my password. I tried to "recover" it , but its not that easy to do. Anyway, I'm back and ready to keep up with the rest of the blogging world. Chad is gone working up north for the week, so this is my time to do as much stuff as I can while he's gone. Sewing, making bows, bracelets, and of course, keeping the house clean. I am making a halloween costume for Lilly. Cute witch kind of thing. I am making a tootoo but not quite sure what to do. Luckily she's not totally counting on me. She'll have no choice but to wear it!!

Rolie Polie....Lilly

We love our Rolie Polie little girl. She is so adorably cute. She is the most content baby in the world. She sleeps through the night and I usually have to wake her up in the morning around 9 or 10. She is sooo happy, loves to smile really big and loves it when you talk to her. Chad can get her to talk really good. Its so fun watching our kids grow and learn new things. Although it goes by way to quick. Lilly has about 4 rolls on each arm and her legs are just about the same. She has rolls on her little tiny fingers and toes. Oh, and we can't forget her neck rolls, the ones that are so deep its hard to find the bottom!!! I just LOVE her to pieces. Every last roll!!! Notice, in the swing picture she even has a roll just above her ankle!
