Well we made it

Okay I know we have been here for a few weeks now but I just not had the time to sit down and post here. The house is nice it needs some work but that is fine. It is 4 bedrooms. It has 3 levels but not as many steps as the house in utah. so the downstairs is a very large room it is like 27 feet long. This is our family room. we have set up the Tv on one side and the other wil be like a play area for the kids. the main floor has the Kitchen dinning room front room. The dinning room is too small for our family so we are converting the front room to the dinning room works out nicely. the dinning room houses the 2 refridgerators, shelving and a phone area we have set up with a desk and shelving. the main floor has both the bathrooms and laundry area. there is a bedroom that has a bathroom attached and that has become Hope's room and the girls bathroom. the other room is the office for right now. But if needed it will become my mom's room. the up stairs has 2 large bedrooms each about 16 foot long this is the master bedroom and the 4 boys room. Now that is what is going to take adjusting since the 4 booys have never shared a room befor but they will be fine after some time.
the back yard has a good sized shed and a workroom. the yard itself is all dirt and some rocks. Kinda nice not to worry about grass now but I will miss gardening. i will be able to o some gardening soon but that will take time as well.
The kids are adjusting fine. Joshua is in middle school and not really liking it very much. I have a meeting with all his teachers on thursday along with his couseler. Hope and Ale are making friends fast and like the new school. Nathan is having a very hard time and really misses is friends in Utah.
Today Avery and I went to our first playgoup ever. We met a few nice ppl and Avery got to play with kids.
McKay has been working since the day after we got here. It is nice that he is working But honestley is is wierd not having him home so much.
Me i am holding out okay I get to see my mom ad that is nice and i am back on my old bowling league. friday nights I get a few hours to myself.
of course we are still unpacking and it may not ever get fully unpacked. I am hiding in the family room away from the site of cardboard boxes
Well I will end this I am going to get some pictures taken as soon as I find the charger for my cameras LOL

Packing sucks and Hope's hair

Well I hate packing ok I really want to know who likes to pack LOL. I am at the point of what now?? I have everything in the kitchen pack that i do not think that we will need for the next few weeks (just under 2 now) I still have to take apart beds desks book cases ect ect. I am so not looking forward to that at all. I have done very well not hurting myself at all during this I am very proud of myself on that point!! Oh yuck I still have to pull things out of the storage closet too. Right now I m enjoying sitting outside writting this it is a bit cool at 72 degrees but still nice. I am really enjoying our view of the mountains and everything so green this is something I am really going to miss alot.

Well I have cut Hope's hair. Came out cute and she really likes it. Plus with it so short it is easier to wash and brush!!

No more Training wheels

Well we have a new little boy across the street he is 5 years old and can ride a bike with no training wheels. Well this has gotten Hope motivated to try and she did great her first try!! No she is riding with ease. Now this has made Nathan want to try. so the net weekend we took his off. It is great they are riding "big kid" bikes now!! They are asking to ride them to school but that will not happen here there is a steep hill and they are not good enough yet. Well here are some videos for ya

Vegas Baby

Well as many of you many know or even thought we are leaving Utah and going back to Las Vegas. It will be had to go but we feel that this move will be best for all of us. So we have been busy with the packing and getting ready to go. The kids are handling the move better then we thought they would so that is a great thing. It is amazing all the stuff you gain in a 2 year span. We are not taking many of the desks and stuff like that since we will be moving into a smaller home there. So we are having fun trying to decide what to take ad what not to take.

I am at a loss for words

Well I know that people read my little blog here but did not really realize how many ppl do care. I feel honored. I have to remember not to take everything to heart all the time and to let myself cool off before blowing up so much. I have found away to o this step aerobics and loud music!! at first I stomp the step cause I am angry then after a while I start to cool off and I keep going until my legs are screaming at me. and it is fun I have found I can do this and watch tv or movies. I use to do something like this when I was a teenager I would go for very long walks with my disc man or Walkman. Funny on how it is now a MP3 player.

So some good things are going on we may be staying for a bit longer. McKay has been offered a good steady year round job we are looking into it all please keep your fingers crossed for us. Plus this company is also in Vegas so if we still choose to leave he can transfer and possible have help with the move.

Everything is up in the air right now. McKay has worked a total of 6 hours this week. So right now we are taking everything day to day. I feel like I am in rehab again telling my self to take things one day at a time LOL.

So the kids start school on Monday. We are hoping to go get my rivers license that day Yes I am SCARED. I drive a Suburban the test car is this tiny Honda.

SO with the kids back in school I may be working again. I know that some jobs i can take avery so that is a help.

I dont know what I have done

Well apparently this whole blog thing has gotten a few people upset. But I thought the reason for blogging was not just to update on the positive things going on in life and the new achievements of my children. I do not like the feeling of letting people down in my life. I do not wish to have to sensor what I have to say at all. Yes it is bothersome that my life is not all rainbows and sunshine honestly it really never has been as happy and cheerful as people may think it is. I know that no ones is.

So this is going to be the end of my blog for now. I do not know when I will start it back up. But I feel that I have to simplify everything and I do not need the added stress and discomfort of comments, emails and messages. I can not please everyone and I do not wish too.

I started this blog to allow the people in my life that are not close to know what is going on. Sorry that it has not all been positive. I guess if someone what to know how we are they can email call or write a letter.

I will be deleting this blog in a few days.

Leaving Utah

Well I think we have made up our minds the whole work thing is just not going well her. McKay has several job opportunities in Las Vegas so we think we are going to go back. Right now it is really hard being in Utah. I hate to say for nearly a year now I have been fighting depression because of the lack of friends and the whole money thing. It is really putting a strain on our family. I need to make the best choice for us. Part of me hates to leave because I will miss the family very much. Mostly my mother in law Ellen. Over the past 2 years she has become very very dear to my heart. I know that we will be coming back to Utah to visit. But it will not be the same. And will not be that often. I hate to leave this house I have put allot of my heart into it and I know that it is just a house and in time the new house will feel the same. The other hard part is that the boys will have to share rooms But we will all get over it and deal with everything in time
