Another win!

Well we took Lagoon by storm. We got first place for each of our dances, and a Grand Champion! This has been so fun for me.
I also got to ride Wicked for the first time. David wouldn't ride it, so my friend Tiffany loaned me her husband and we went together. I thought for sure I wouldn't like it, but I LOVED IT! I can't believe all the fun I missed out on when I was younger because I was such a pansy. We got Hannah to go on the Bat, but she hated it, and almost lost her glasses. Chase really liked the dinosaur drop. You know, the one like the Rocket, but over in Kiddie Land. He went on it about 10 times! Ryan wasn't scared of anything. He is much braver than Hannah and Chase ever were. It was a great trip, and I love clogging!

Idaho History

Fourth grade means Idaho History. (it was sixth for me) As you all know, my family is way into Idaho history and the Native Americans that were here. So of course Hannah did her project on them. She put a lot of work into a diorama (with Papa's help) and ended up winning a ribbon for best village. I am very proud of her!

Happy Mother's Day

I love being a mom! It is the most frustrating, fun and dangerous thing in the world to be. I am constantly terrified by the fact that what I do will make my children what they are. If I force good behavior down their throat, then will they rebel? If I make them do things they don't want to do, will they hate me forever? If they find out all the things I used to do, will they think that they can do them too?
But wait, if I just love them and accept them for who they are, I can't go wrong, RIGHT?

I am falling apart...

This year has been hard on me. You would think clogging and the gym would keep me in good shape, but I have some serious problems going on. I have tendonitis in my Achilles, and now I have a rotator cuff injury that wakes me up all night because I like to lay on my side! I am very thankful for Ibuprofen!
