Walk to school...

This morning was walk to school day! We met at the park, were escorted by the police, walked in classes and had fun!

Arrow of Light!

My little man is almost 11 and he completed his requirements to receive his arrow of light! He will now be in the 11 year old scouts with Brother Murphy. I was proud of all his hard work this past year. Now my late nights are filled with a jumbo scout manual trying to get a grip on that program! Way to go my sweet boy!

Middle school open house...

There are no words to describe the feelings I have about middle school approaching in a few months. Am I ready to let go of my little boy? Heck no! I am FREAKING OUT!!! We've had lots of talks about the good, the bad and the ugly and all I can do is pray like a wild woman. I'm trying to focus on all the amazing things middle school will offer, but sadly, I'm still searching for them! I know he will survive, we all did, but I'm not ready for this! Just the other day Daisy asked what getting to second base meant!

Tristin's track meet...

Tristin had his track meet 2 weeks ago. He was in 2 of the jumps and did pretty well. It was fun to sit in the stands and watch all the kids.

A little lost...

Every once in awhile when I take personal inventory of my life, I feel a little lost and buried. The past few months have been a little wild and I'm still trying to come down from it all. I know myself and know I can function at a crazy stress level, but I think I'm really tired right now. I can't seem to rest my mind and my anxiety level is through the roof. I keep praying to settle down the thoughts in my head, but I just feel like I'm spinning constantly. The thoughts, the to-do's, the obsessing- it just doesn't seem to stop. And sleep, I wish there was more than a few hours, all of which are interupted. I love my life and where I'm at, I just feel a little crazy and need to find a way to calm it all down. I think I need to go to the temple and clear my head! Just a morning vent...
