Fall is here

Well, Jesse and Mickiah have left and things are getting back to normal. (Well as normal as it can get until we move into our own house:)
School starts on Tuesday. The kids are so excited and I think I am too. I can't believe Brooklynn will be in the big school with Coleman now. It will be nice to have all day to work with Mason and really be able to focus on him! It seems like the older two are always needing me more:) It's really been alot harder this time around to shuffle my time equally! Hope I get it right. The shop will be done in two weeks so we should be able to move in the house by the end of the month...GOD WILLING!!! I've been feeling a little down, I think I'm just needing some change or maybe a break. Hmmm?

Admisions of old age

(Had to write this quickly so I don't forget)
The other day I went to see Granny and Papa and somehow age got brought up and Granny said that there is joy in all ages, i told them my joy then asked Granny what was hers: She said her joy is in the man sitting accross the room and their children and their joy is in me, being there, visiting them and the life the've lived! We were both choked up. So I turn to Papa, (I think he still thought I was Mamie, but that's ok ;) and asked him his joy, he said that old lady over there, but was covering his hand so she couldn't see him pointing at her! It was soooo cute!!! He also said his family and stuff and got pretty emotional. I don't know it meant alot to me to have that conversation, with granny telling me she wasn't scared and that every age has it's joy and pain. we just go on for as long as we can! She also told me to let things slide with my kids and enjoy them now in the moment because in a couple years the'll be 50! Anyways, this is more for me, but it was great!

Grandparents

Life has been crazy this last week. Jesse and his wife Mickiah are here and we've been getting ready for a Estate/Garage Sale for all of Granny and Papas stuff! I didn't think they had that much, but every cubby I come to, THERE IS MORE!!! They really seem to be settling in and liking the assisted living. Papa seems to not remember not being there, so i guess that's a good thing.
Sunday we leave for lake Cushman to camp and tube for the week! Super glad to see my baby brother too! Busy, Busy;)

Fun summer time!

It's 103 degrees today so we are staying inside!

Oh the Young

Day at the lake with my family

Today we went to the lake with the family! The kids had a blast swimming and going in Papas boat, even though it was freezing!!! The rest of the sain part of the family had sweatshirts and jeans on:) Great day all and all however. Hopefully next time it will be sunny!
We are moving my grandparents tonight and tomorrow. Busy, busy!

This is a forced upon me blog that I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm running on no sleep and I've had no Mt. Dew today! Happy to be here learning though:0
