Yes, it has been six months and I will admit, for those that care, that I have been a slacker! Updating my blog has been low on the priority list so I thought I better up my game if I want to feel on top of things! So here's a brief "catch up!"

February: I started babysitting for a wonderful teacher's kids at Taylor and Logan's school. She was in a bind and it has worked out so well! I babysit Ashley (3) and Tiffany (1). They are so darling and a joy to have in my house! I have never been a daycare person but it sure keeps Sadie and Megan occupied!!

March: I took the kids to Sacramento at the end of March, beginning of April. My brother lives there and my sister drove up from So. Cal, accompanied by mom. It was a whirlwind weekend but my kids are still talking about it!

April: The boys went to Arizona to spend a week with Grandma, Amy w/ her fam, Hillary w/ her fam and Hailey and her fam. They had a blast and came home suntanned and exhausted! That means for a good vacation. Sadie also had a surgery and Seattle Children's Hospital to fix her herneated belly button. I didn't like her being put "under" but she did great!

May: Jen and I met at Women's Conference in Utah and had a blast being together again, uplifted and spiritually edified! I also reunited with my old roomies-how I love that we can just pick up where we left off....we all have lots more kids but still felt 19 again! I also met Sister Dalton and she gave our Young Women a special assignment as we're working on Virtue together! I love that woman!

Now that takes us swiftly to June where we are in full swing of summer! Taylor just ran a marathon, and is now mowing lawns to save for his mission. Logan came down wrong on a trampoline and shifted his growth plate. Cast comes off the 18th. Megan is as fiesty as ever--I pray for patience daily/hourly. Sadie is hilarious--she's convinced a boy in our ward is Troy Bolton and gets so shy and giddy when she sees him. I love these kids! They're the best!
