Fall is here! All summer long I would tell myself "When fall gets here I can relax"! It seemed every weekend all summer long was filled up. So I just kept telling myself if I can make it till fall I will have a free weekend. Little did I know that would not necessarily be the case. I found a few weeks ago I had one or two free weekends till Thanksgiving but those have quickly filled. I am now completely booked till Thanksgiving and have been for a few weeks. In fact I really don't remember a free weekend in a while. Now as far as I figure I have 2 free weekends in between Thanksgiving and Christmas but as I sit here and type that my mind races with hmmmmm that would give me a chance to do a few other things I had been hoping to do. See I can't help it I can't keep a weekend free. Thank heavens for sundays when I can't book anything. So I sit here eagerly awaiting christmas vacation when I WILL NOT plan anything except visiting with family and enjoying mine.

My little wrestler! Hunter is LOVING wrestling and doing really well at it. He was so thrilled that Steven was there to help coach him. I had some photo's with slade but they didn't turn out very well. I will post more of him next week.

I will win.

I WILL FIGHT! I will not give in. I will not succumb to my cough. I will not give in. I WILL NOT get sick. I have not planned that for my week. I have plans every day. Each day is FULL there is NO room for you cold. I will not allow you to take over my well laid out week. I will fight you with vitamin C. I will wash you away with Hot spiced cider. I will push you out with tylenol. I will mentally conquer you! I have no time for you! I WILL CONQUER!

So tonight was the big night! Tonight was the first night of wrestling practice. And the boys had a blast. Slade is feeling a little under the weather but insisted on going but had a blast. Their attention was glued to the coach following every direction. Steven was not able to make it home in time to come. So the boys ran in the house to show him their moves. The fun thing was Hunter got to wrestle with my cousins son. We were sitting in the car waiting for it to start when they went walking by. Hunter really likes their son so it was fun for him.

Ty's art!


Every artist has their own unique style. Each has there preferred medium. Ty's happen to be my pen and him and Steven's legs. The nice thing about this is Steven was watching football so he didn't care. My little artist. All I can say at least it wasn't the walls. You know the thing of it is I just bought a whole new ream of computer paper for the kids to draw on. LOL

This is the mess that greets me each and every night when I go in to brush my teeth and hair. I set anything down and it gets on it. I touch it and I am sticky. It gets on my hair brush and everywhere else if I don't clean it up every night. How how does this happen? Each time I ask the kids " Who did this" I get the normal. "I saw ty" "No I saw slade" "hahuh I saw hunter" then there is the occasional " Rachel did it" which we all know is not true! So I am posting a reward for proof of who is doing this. I would love to make the tooth paste bandit clean this mess up instead of me!

My last 3 days!

My life has been insane lately! I have been super busy the last few days. My parents were up this weekend to help my sister move into her new town home. We love it when they come up. Wish I had pictures of the weekend but we were so busy I forgot to. That was saturday on sunday we went out to my brothers home in Tooele to visit them and look at a home my other brother was thinking of buying. We all had lunch together before my parents left for home. It was fun. Then we left and hurried home Just in time to make it to our interviews with the Stake President to have our temple recommends renewed . We finally made it home Just in time to get ready for bed and relax for a minute. Well on to monday. Monday I got the kids up and ready for school. Took them to school, came home picked up my Scentsy stuff and ran around doing stuff for my Scentsy open house this Saturday. So if anyone needs any let me know! Finished Scentsy stuff and headed over to pick up my sister and her kids. Came home and held her baby while she made some phone call's that needed to be made. Finished that went to pick up kids took my sister home. Came home helped with homework, made dinner, went to bed. Today got kids to school, cleaned house (it needed it after all this), went and picked up sister and her kids, took them to her doctors appointment, tried to keep her baby happy while she was there. Took her home, went and picked up sandwich bags. Picked Boys up from school, came home did homework, went and picked rachel up, made dinner. Came up stairs put on pj's and watched The proposal ( I LOVE this movie) I laughed super hard. And now here I am sitting at my computer describing to you my last 3 day's. For those who finished reading probably one of my more boring post's Thanks! I promise something better will be next!

Today Slade and Ty were in the basement and found the bag of winter pj's. As you can see their last year pj's don't fit. I suggested to ty that he give his to his cousin and take slade's. However he was not having that. They looked so cute in there tiny jammies!

I love my little pumpkin head!
Today was just an everyday kind of day! However I did get to go grocery shopping with my delicious little husband (yes I called him delicious lol). You know when in life did going to the grocery store with just my husband get me soooo excited? Hmmm I don't know but I am not going to put to much thought in it! It is conference weekend which means the family tradition of carmel apples. My mother in-law started this tradition ( I don't know how long ago but awhile ago). It is one we love. We make homemade carmel and get fresh, juicy, crispy apples to dip in it. Then on sunday you make a big sunday afternoon dinner. Then you lay around hurting from all the delicious food and apple carmel watching conference. Steven and I kinda added our own twist to it we go for a drive and look at the leaves after conference. Also to my sister in-law (you know who you are) watch out while your sleeping you never know what I can talk your daughter into doing! LOL

Today I can feel it. The change it is in the air with each chilly breeze that blows past telling me to get a jacket. It is the new snow I can see in the distance on the mountains. It is in the changing of the leaves. So I obeyed that feeling today I got out the fall Scentsy Flavors. The flavor today is "Autumn Sunset" yummy! It just makes fall even better. I am starting to look forward to thanksgiving and all it's yumminess. The family to visit and laugh with, the large copious amounts of pumpkin and apple pie that will be consumed. This very time has to be one of my favorite times of the year. So I for one am loving the sights, smells, cool mornings, and the yummy Autumn sunset scentsy.
