Right now I wanted to see if I could get the first Scrapbook page up here for you to check out. This kills 2 birds with one stone for me:
1. You can see what fun I'm having.
2. You get to see Eli's car from the Pinewood Derby.
Enjoy!

Check this out...
Bret let me get some Scrapbooking software the other day and I've been having a little bit of fun with it. I haven't had much chance to do too much because of sick kids and YW and Talent shows. I have so much to share about all that other stuff, but I'll save it for later.

This New Background Is For Livvy!
Her Birthday was on Wednesday - big 4! She is so big; I can't believe where the time went. I have really enjoyed getting time together just the 2 of us when the big kids are at school.
For her B-Day we had a fun morning (I kept the big kids out of school) playing with all the kids. Then for lunch we went to Peter Piper Pizza. She LOVES this place! When we got home she took a nap and then we had cake and presents. It was a real fun day. The only down side was that some of the kids got real sick. Jake is the worst right now.
So anyway, I love my Livvy! I can't imagine life without her. She such a joy!
Happy Birthday Baby!

Yuckies and Cloudyness
Well, today we all got up and started getting ready for church. Things were getting a little crazy frustrating just before it was time to leave. I was trying to print out something for YW, Bret had some Scouting stuff to print as well, the kids were starting to get crazy, Lizzy was getting shakey and nautious from fasting, and suddenly I hear Livvy cough. It was nasty. Then I started thinking about this morning and she's had an excessive runny nose now with the cough - she's sick and I really did't want to pass it to the rest of Primary. So Livvy and I stayed home from church. I think I might be getting the cold too - we'll see.
On a happier note, it's cloudy and on the verge of rain here in AZ! I'm sure everyone is loving it for the SuperBowl. :)
Yep, the SuperBowl is here in Phoenix (just in case you have been alseep in life and don't know)! It's all I've heard about for months now. My main thought has been - I'm so so so so so glad that we don't live in our old house. It is just down the street from the Stadium! BUT then I did see in the news a photo of some famour person (can't remember who) leaving a gas station. It looked a lot like the one I used to frequent VERY often (for my soda fix). So there is a little bit of coolness that comes with being a populer city for a weekend.
Other news - the kids have a talent show coming up. I think we are going to dress the kids up like Orphans (somedays I wish they were) and sing a song to the musical Annie - It's a Hard Knock Life. We'll make up some motions to go with the song too. I sure hope we can pull it all together! :) The kids (mostly Lizzy) has been wanting to perform in various talents shows for a few years now. But that is a lot of work for ME and I wasn't up to it at different times. So now we'll try it. Wish us luck!
Well, I have stuff to do and kids to deal with (they've been a bit naughty today). Take care and have a great week!

New Computer
Well, we bought a new laptop. We've had one from the school (Bret's work), but it is not performing well. All the schools' laptops aren't very good and he has to take it to and from school for teaching. :( So seeing as how Bret and I are starting back to school, we needed a laptop. We have our Mac that is still doing well, but the programs for our online classes aren't Mac compatible.
Bret filed our taxes and we'll be getting a bit of a return (8-15 days) and we went and did some looking around trying to find the best deal for what we need. The rest of the return is going to pay bills and sit in the bank. I DID get Elizabeth some new undies today and the boys some new socks though. I hope that won't break us. :)
Today is date night! I love Fridays when we get to go out. I didn't get to be with Bret on Date night 2 weeks ago, and last week was our turn to watch kids. So I've missed being with him. :) I'm not sure what we'll be doing tonight. Probably dinner and a movie. I just can't wait to be with my Sweet Hubby without the littles in tow.
So, I really had better clean up the house or do something productive.
