i'll huff and puff

So I decided if Brennen is going to join the track team we need to get him in shape. Sooo I made him go out running with me. Only I could only run-well, not so far until I was pooped! So we walked at a brisk speed the rest of the way and I was the only one out of breath. What was I thinking 15 yr old boy, 30 something mom. Yeah, I'll be rethinking this one. We did have a nice talk though.

dillon's turn

Birthday season has came to a close and we celebrated it with a bang!

Dillon turned 9 last Sat. Can we get another woot! woot!
The day started with a Dillon running into my room first thing and stating "It's Saturday mom" and I said "yes it is Dillon" trying to think fast what he was getting at but before my mind could even get started he stated, "It's my Birthday!" So I started singing and the day went like this...

• 8:30 leave for Dillon's soccer game which started @9:15
• 10:05 get the call from Jake that I have Caden's player card that he needs for his football game that starts @ 11:00 so miss the end of the game and send Dillon home with a friend
• 10:30 get to the football field, watch them warm up and catch the first half of the football game
• 12:00 leave the football game and get to the swim meet in plenty of time to watch Dustin swim in all four of his events. He qualified for state in two events! It was a good swim day for Dustin.
• 4:30 leave the swim meet and head home for the bowling party. I let Dillon, Caden and Dustin invite a couple of friends and we took them all bowling @ 5:30.
• 8:30 party was pretty much over and I was spent! What a day!!!

Getting three birthday parties over in one night...this may be the start of one of those tradition things.

caden is 12...can I get a woot woot!

Caden turned 12 today!!! Can you believe it? No more pimary, although he has agreed to be in the program next Sunday (he isn't a deacon until they set him apart after sacrament meeting). He also says he's going to the articles of faith sundae bar. He's looking forward to loading up his ice cream with all 13 toppings. YUMMY!


The cute little cake topping is actually a gift card from Target so he had to lick it clean!!!

Caden has started football and is really liking it. His dad gave him his old highschool football jersey to practice in. His first game is this Saturday. Go Caden!!!

Caden is such a responsible boy! He's a really good example to all his friends and I'm so lucky that he is mine!!! (all mine, at least for now)
I love you Caden hope you had a great day.

why me?

I have jury duty today, again. I am not looking forward to it. We have to go all the way down to freemont street, park in a garage blocks away and walk to the court house. And on top of all that OJ is on trial so I'm sure there is going to be a mess down there. Maybe I should put on my halloween costume and just fit right in. Look for me on the news channels!

icky tv

Did anyone watch America's Next Top Model? I started to and then deleted it and went ahead and deleted it off of my dvr. Seriously talk about Sodem and Gomorrah!!! I hope the little girl from Alaska is strong enough to make it out of there in one piece. What is Tyra thinking? great role model for girls, my opinion of her plummeted to nothing. If you didn't catch it don't! It was seriously that bad.
