Weekly Smeekly.....

1) Trent was once again deer-less with hunting this past week.
2) I just about killed myself with electricity and water. Well, I was giving the girls a bath and noticed my blow-dryer was still plugged up. I thought I should put that away, and unplugged it while my hands were still wet. biggest shock of my life through my right hand and up my arm....it really freaked me out. I was mad at myself for doing it. But, still ALIVE!!
3) Since having smart phones Trent and I are enjoying apps and he downloaded the  KSL app. We loved KSL up in Provo Utah, and found our Denali on there. As Trent was browsing on his phone he found a used trampoline in St. George. Called the gal, it was still available, $70 and a St. George trip later, we now have a 15ft tramp for the girls and us to enjoy. We probably were on it for at least 3-4 hours, I felt like a kid again. So fun. Now we don't have to ask Santa Clause to bring one in a few months. Gotta love great finds and deals like this:)
4) Oh how I am starting to loath the computer screen, I have probably spent 15 these last week editing my sister in laws wedding. It's something I enjoy doing but it's so time consuming. Not easy to find extra time with my young kiddos. On a more positive note, they are turning out fabulous and I got some really great shots. What a beautiful day that was.
5) We got lots of rain this past week, which is nice, until I get into my car and drive in our muddy driveway and down our seemingly long dirt road. And mud mud mud. After 2 days of rain, I couldn't take it anymore, I had to wash the car. So out on the lawn I put it, Felt so much better afterwards, even if it did rain again. There is just something about my black stroller and car, I want them spotless almost always.
6) We went and had a play date at the Terril's and went on a walk in our jogger strollers. It was so fun, I would love to have that trail right by my house, I would be on it always. We had an enjoyable time as we always do. Some kids were grumpy particularly mine. We put Brielle and Lyla in my stroller and Evelyn, Macy, and Tyson in Danielle's stroller. Lyla wanted to sit by Evelyn, Evelyn wanted to stay sitting by Brielle. Then Evelyn cried because she wants to walk. So, we just let Evelyn and Macy walk and run together and hold hands together.
7) Trent was hunting and I was bored and my mother in law Camille asked me if we wanted to go to the Homecoming parade at the high school with her. I said I would and since I didn't get my workout in I thought, why not walk there in my handy dandy stroller. It's not that far. But what I failed to realize is, it was FREAKING FAR. Plus without a nice sidewalk and being by the main road it was ok for a while and then not fun. I was however, very proud of myself. The girls and I got out together and I got my exercise in. Evelyn and I had some fun conversations. She hated the bumpy rocks on the way back, so did I. The worst part was crossing the street to go onto the bridge to get to the high school. It was a little scary. On the way back I wanted to cut corners and go down a dirt path that leads right up to our house. Wasn't thinking there so much mud. By the time I wheeled my tired booty and the girls up to our house, I noticed one of my back tires way flat, crap. Trent helped me take off my tires and find thorns in them. I put two and two together and realized that I most likely got the thorns earlier in the week while on the walk with Danielle and the brutal high school walk really drove them in there. So now I am stroller less. lol.  *The parade was fun but only lasted for about 10 minutes. Then I knew we had the walk home. People offered me a ride, but I wanted to take me and my girls back home ourselves. I was being a little proud about it all I guess. When I told Trent what I did he couldn't believe it at all. He was like your crazy that was far. I just laughed and said it was interesting. I got my feel for it all and well, will probably never ever do it again. Another thing I noticed while at the parade, I am freaking old. I wanted to go back in time for just a moment my senior year while I was up for Homecoming Queen and sit with Trent Leavitt(my current hubby and escort) and have no responsibilities and lots of fun. Those were the days. :) I can't believe I will be 28 this November....say what?
8)Evelyn is starting to get the wrath that Lyla has been holding inside of her all the times she has hit poor little Lyla, it's like she remembers now. The other day she was grabbing her hair and laughing and laughing. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw Lyla's smug face like it's payback time. But, put her in timeout and told her (with a grin on my face) to stop.
9) Evelyn loves to refuse to do anything I ask her and is a lot harder and more demanding than Lyla is most hours of the day. Today she said, "I don't care what you tell me to do, I just won't do it". I put some new children's place jeans on her and she said mom I hate these, they look too big and baggy. Oh heaven help me:/
10) After having a high the week before about scoring a free freezer. It stopped working the 2nd day we had it. We were confused, the lady said she never had a problem with it at all. And I trusted her. Trent got asking his dad Rodney about it and he asked if we layed it on its side when we moved it, yep we did. Bad mistake we damaged something in there. Trent and I had no idea you don't do that.. So now it sits in our garage meatless and empty and warm. Probably most likely cost $100. When it could have cost us nothing, oh the agony of it all. Oh well so happens in life.
