The Update

Well Here is an update on last week. Well Craig got a 19 on his DAT which is very good, which means dental school here we come. YEAH!!! ( hope he interviews well) Wednesday Craig s parents came over and got the kids. Craig asked his father for a blessing, then he studied for Thursday. We are applying to 15 dental schools. Top choices for me are 1: New Orleans 2. Kentucky 3. Arizona 4. North Carolina. Those are in no particular order. Just my top pick. My all time least favorite would be California. For personal reasons. Not because its California or the people. SOOO we are very excited. We are getting ready to fly out next week to go to Kyle's wedding in Arizona. I cant believe he is going to be married. I cant wait to meet all the family it is going to be soo much fun. They are such a fun family. Well that is what we are up to and I will post pictures of the wedding when we get back.

The Most Stressful Week

I am loving learning how to sew. I am addicted to making my boys there ties for church. Craig said that I should start selling them, but I am not that good yet. Plus I don't know really how well they would sell.

( of course my mom never comes empty handed I mean never she got the boys Halloween shirts and got Craig a pair of really nice shorts and two pair of nice sandals from the Gap)


My parents always stop by unexpectedly. I love that. I like it when I look out my door and see my mom and dad and they say " Just wanted to see the kids" . This week is a very stressful week for us. Craig is taking the DAT on Thursday, so when my parents were here my dad asked Craig if he would like a blessing. Craig said yes and my dad gave him a great blessing. I am grateful for my dad for doing that for Craig. It meant soo much to him. After they left Craig went and took a 3 hour practice DAT and got a 21. He was soo excited and feels so confident for Thursday. My dad after giving him a blessing said
"Son I know you can do it" Tears filled Craig's eyes. He tried his hardest not to let his emotions show. But Craig has a lot on his shoulders right now. I tell him I am behind 110%. I know through the prayers of my family and friends he will do great. He is a great person all around. I wish that everyone got to see the Craig I see. He is not so quite and he makes me laugh all the time. He is so positive and never speaks ill of no one. He always puts himself in their shoes before he speaks. He is a terrific dad. On top of the Dat Thursday, Myron started BRECS playgroup this week. They meet Monday thru Thursday from 9-12. It is only 2.9 miles away from our apartment. He absoutely loves it. He already knows two kids there, so he thinks it is great. No I did not cry when he walked away, I actually clicked my heels whoo hoo, haha. I will probably cry for his first day of Kindergarten. That is a much longer day and it means that he is getting to big. He grew up so fast. Ethan was the one who cried, No I want to go to Myron school. I want MY Mymy. Lets just say day two without brother is going terrible. He doesnt know what to do without his brother. I hope it is always like that. I hope they develop a friendship and always rely on one another. I am so grateful they have each other.

Loves his booksack, thank goodness, I could not find a Cars one for the live of me. Luckly he likes Spiderman too.

F. H. E and Kyhaking

We had FHE and we talked about prayers and made someone we knew who was involved in a terrible explosion a card and when Myron was done drawing he said look mom I drew a man on the potty. haha Craig and I died laughing. ( doesnt look like it )

We also made this super easy hero capes
1 or less yard of fabric( i used felt)
ribbon
fold over cut silts weave throw ribbon
then tie behind arms instead of around neck
cut extra off to make cool mask. They play with them every day.

We went kahaking with the boys it was so fun. I forgot to take pictures of Craig and My, but we did not see any alligators just birds. It was so peaceful. Atferward we went and spent time with some friends and he said there are huge alligators where we were. He has spotted a 10 footer. Ok now I am a little scared to go back. Before my dad pushed me off he said if i see an alligator do not start rocking because i will flip me and E out the kahak. Thanks DAD!!!

Did they have fun or what!!!!!!!!

The whole family

So we went to my grandparents for the 4th of July. I guess I never realized how lucky I am to have grandparents who live in Florida. I have always gone there growing up and it is soo fun to be there with my own family now. We had so much fun and made memories. I love this country and the freedoms we have. I am grateful for all the men and women who proudly serve this great nation.
