Look, It's Me!!!

Updating

I am making it my goal to write on this blog at least once a week.  I have another blog that I've recently restarted and that one is a personal blog to keep myself going on my Project 365.  I am doing really good with keeping up on that blog and have been writing in it a couple of times a week since I restarted it.  So that is my goal with this blog too.  I will update this blog at least once a week, more if I have more that I want to share.  I will also continue posting my pictures as scrapbook pages from Creative Memories Storybook Creator 3.0 plus.  So tonight I will post this, a little post to get myself going again.  If anyone is still out there, thanks for taking the time to take a glimpse into our crazy, crazy life.

Jason's Crazy Idea

2nd look for Back to School Pages

I need some input from my friends and family. I really like the look of the pages I did for back to school, but I found a template on the Scrap it Digital blog that I think is super cute too.  So here's the question...do I use the pages that I posted in the last post or these pages in our family scrapbook? 

Back to School

On Monday August 23rd, my girls went back to school. B'Elana started 4th grade at Fox Hills Elementary school magnet program. She has been going to school with most of these kids for the last 3 years and was so looking forward seeing all her friends again.

Deanna started her 9th grade year. Her schedule was a mess, so she had a bit of a struggle the first couple of days, but she thinks she may finally have it figured out. She's going to take a couple of classes online, swim for Skyline, skip Chinese for this semester (hopefully we can get her into a class for next semester) and take Seminary. It will be a busy and fun year for both girls. I'm hoping they both do their best and have a great time.

Our poor ignored blog

Life being the crazy thing that it is, our family blog has been completely ignored. I read back through some of the posts and realized that I had intended to make blogging more of a priority. Then we went to Las Vegas for cheer, Jason broke his ankle, school ended, Jason started working in Seattle, Washington, the girls had a full and fun summer and now school has started again.

Starting over again on blogging, and hoping to keep up again. Let's see if I actually can do it this time :)

Valentine's Day

For Valentine's Day this year, we got the girls their traditional small stuffed animals, a cookie, a pencil and some Sweethearts. The dog got some Sweethearts too, but only because she stole them! Jason got a gorilla that was holding a heart. It said "Let's monkey around." Jason and the girls got me a dog with kisses all over. I wanted to name him Kisses, but Jason said he had already named him Rufus, so I went with that. We decided to have a heart shaped pizza for lunch and went to our favorite pizza place, Pier 49. I think that will become a new Valentine's Day tradition. We had a great time!
