Surviving...

I am coming up for air long enough to post and say I am still around...I am not reading any blogs, but I am still here!

VBS is going well and is not too stressful. I think it is the swimming lessons every night that are pushing me over the edge.

Aaron is coming back in town tonight so hopefully I can get caught up on the things I am behind on once he gets back.

Hard to believe Grant is 3 months old tomorrow. I am going to try to take some pictures and post a few...

Can't catch up

I just can't seem to get my act together and catch up on things. And Aaron is leaving town on Saturday for 5 days - I think I am going to be in this eternal state of being so far behind I can't see straight for a while.

We did have a nice cross-country trip. It was great to see my grandparents and Mema (who is done with radiation and we are now just praying for clear scans for the next several months and beyond) and I was able to catch up with some old grade school and high school friends while we were in Memphis. It is always fun to hang out with those people who really "remember you when..." and talk about old times (even if it does bore the spouses to tears!).

Bryn had a great time in Idaho with Nana and Grandpa. After a week of swimming, horseback riding, camping, going to the park, playing the Wii and a bunch of other fun stuff she is pretty bored around here. We are not nearly as entertaining!

Bryn is going to VBS this week and has started swimming lessons. Next week is VBS at our church (I got roped into helping with science - God help me!). Grant is getting another cold and this time he has a lot of chest congestion and a cough to go with it. and we finally have a plan to get the front flower bed filled with something besides weeds- now I just have to find the time to get it done! Whew!

Jeremiah (my half brother) just called to say his wife Mesha is pregnant. There is a cousin explosion going on in the family right now - pretty cool! There will be 3 babies born within a year of each other...crazy!

Off to try to catch up on laundry, housecleaning and the mail pile that is about as high as an elephant's eye...

Home Sweet Home

We all made it back home safe and sound...now I just have to play catch up after being gone for 2 weeks!

More later...

Still on the road

Mom, Grant and I are back in Denver and will pick Bryn up at the airport tomorrow. Then we are headed to Kansas and are off to Memphis on Tuesday. Whew! I am behind on just about everything including blog posting and reading...I'll be doing a lot of catch up next week!

I did get my grades turned in (finally!) - my class was recovered through May 11th so only the last exam was missing. I gave everyone a 100% on it and didn't seem to get any complaints! I learned a valuable lesson...no more working at night when sleep deprived without backing up my info in multiple places!

I am off to get some rest...there are lots of hours of driving ahead...
