WACKY WEDNESDAY

It started at 5 a.m. dropping Braden off at the airport to head to the MTC in Provo where he will reside for the next three months while learning Hungarian, how to teach the people about the Gospel, and I'm pretty certain he will get a big dose of reality while he is there as well! I got "teary eyed" but I kept total control of my emotions!

Back to school! Hannah Leaves at 7:30 (until seminary starts, then she will leave at 6:30)

Can you tell that Parker is a teenager with attitude? He was less than thrilled to have me take his picture! It was really fun getting him up to go to the airport with us!

Chan leaves at 8 am. He is pretty easy to get going in the mornings!

I am now suffering from "mom guilt" as I was eating my amazing breakfast at the famous "TOWER CAFE" I realized my kids all left the house without breakfast! I had delusional ideas of fixing them a nice breakfast to send them all off to their various locations, but they were all too tired to even think about it!

MAYBE NEXT YEAR.........

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT...I HATE REALITY!!

Yes, it's hard to believe, but I would much rather be in Cancun (as above) or Cabo, or Hawaii or just about anywhere else having fun than facing the sting of reality and going back to school, back to schedules and homework and eating dinner at a reasonable hour, no more staying up late playing games, going to the city and all of the fun, relaxing things that we do in the summer!
But here goes REALITY- 4 kids at 4 schools means 4 big packets to fill out, 4 different schedules to accommodate. Soccer, Tae Kwon Do, social agendas, homework, lunches, early morning seminary, back to school nights, and that is just the beginning of the list. I am just not ready to let the lazy days of summer go this year. Does anyone else feel overwhelmed at the beginning of school? The good news is that in a few short weeks we will have everyone in the groove of the new school year right?
