Back to Life.

We had a nice long weekend this weekend. Lots of time to spend together, and I think we really needed it...it seems like there's been a lot going on lately and not a lot of together relaxin' time. Then we cleaned. yay. We've gotten really behind lately...just feeling lazy I guess. Getting things sorted out in our heads not in our home, apparently. And now we have to start the packing thing, cause soon enough we're moving into our new home, the May's old trailor. I'm pretty excited to have all that space, but I so do not want to pack again...what is it, every six months I move??? okay not quite, but it feels like it. I feel for Megan, and am so glad I don't have that far to go, and I only have one kid to keep track of...and about 1/4 the amount of stuff I'm sure she's got.

umm ... yeah ... packing sucks no matter how much stuff you have. Just throw it all away and start over. You'll thank me later. Well ... except for all that cool stuff Kenzie got in Idaho. :) Keep that.

Thanks, dude. Nice to know you have some empathy...funny how that doesn't help make my boxes disappear.

How about you come up here and I trade you some tooth extractions for some moving help?

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...

End of the week

This week has been lots of fun. J's mom, step-dad, sister and nephew all came to stay with us for the week. We've had a lot of fun visiting, playing games, and swimming. I'm so glad they came to visit us, aaallll the way from Idaho! We're lucky they had the time and all came! They are leaving in the morning because his step-dad has to work sunday afternoon! Crazy wonderful people. On another note, tomorrow J and I will have been married 3 years. I can hardly believe it's been three years....absolutely wonderful. I have never made a better decision in my life!
