Is it Fall?

Why is it that every time I have time to blog I am in a super bad mood and I just want to write mean grumpy things?
Ok...well I will just say one thing and then I will move on with the kids...the real reason anyone reads this,:)
High School Drama Queens that are grown women are really getting on my nerves. My Ward sucks! Leave it to me to piss off the queen drama bee within days of living here...and it has just gone on from there. I am too old for this!!! All my patience is taken up by my four kids folks....so don't mess with me!

k...I feel better.

September is over. Where did it go? I felt like I was in a dentist's chair half of the time! 2 crowns and one check up, and a root canal later...I think I am fixed. Thanks to my brother in law who is now a real dentist. ( like he was a fake one before...you know what i mean!)
I hate the dentist office...I hate the smell..the sounds ...the gloves...I hate people in my space...I hate stuff in my mouth...AHHHHH!!!! But I do love the gas. IT saved me. Poor Cory.... he had to deal with me and all of my neurosis at his work place.

Ok...on to the important stuff...the kids....
First quarter of school is over...we are officially on fall break. Parent Teacher Conferences went well...good grades....
Ella is in half day kindergarten and is quite the little reader. Her teacher gave her an AR goal of one point...which is adorable. She took 2 tests and made it and got to go in front of the whole school for a certificate. She is loving it.
Hope had her 9th birthday this week.....we had a super fun day. Breakfast in bed ( a birthday tradition)....then Seth and I picked her up at school and took her to lunch. Then we set everything up for her tea party that she invited her friends and their Moms to. Super cute!!!!! They were all so cute and sweet. Then we had the bead junkie bead party ladies come over to make bracelets! It was so fun!!!!!
Luke is actually not doing any sports this quarter......we are taking a breather and trying to enjoy family life a little more....slow down...smell the roses kind of thing. :) He did get a special treat from our awesome neighbor, Chris, who works for FOX Sports. HE knew MAx HAll the BYU quarterback who made the AZ CArdinals TEam this year was coming in for an interview...and invited Luke and Seth down to meet him!!!! I was so jealous! If I could find the thing to hook up the camera I would post a pic of it. Later!
Sadie is still ruling the roost around here. She asks everyday " How many more days till Sea Word?" She is very excited about going to the beach and to SEaWorld here next week. We rented an apartment with our friends Becky and Chris right by the beach for super cheap!!!! We can't wait!!!!
When we get back I will be heading home to Canada for 6 days. KIDLESS. Scary and exciting all at the same time! My Mom needs me...so I am off. My Grandma is in the hospital and not doing well either...so hopefully I will get to see her as well.

4 more sleeps till San Diego!!!!!

Too fun. It's always great to get an update on everyone! Glad your teeth are better...that is the worst. And I wish we were going to California with you. Maybe someday. Have fun!

Glad you have a dentist in the family! And woo hoo to Ella for being such a great reader! Happy B-day Hope! Still sad I didn't make it. And I'm glad you guys are taking a breather this quarter! Have a blast in Cali and pretend I'm there blinding you with my whiteness!
