What?

I seriously do not know what I was thinking when I let a 4 year old and 8 year old talk me into changing their stuff around so that they could share a room to sleep and share the other room to play...Well as you can see buy the pictures and yes I do know they are out of order but you get the point before and after..I think it goes bad on bottom good on top.. I took Rivs bed apart because of course it wouldn't fit through the door,after putting it back together I attempted to lift it up on top of the other bed you know so I could make bunk beds...After some very encouraging words from my son I got it but not before I dropped it, not tottaly just a little, but enough to whack that cute little boy right in the dang head and yes it did hurt badly-he has been telling me just how bad it hurt for hours... Not to fear though we got it and it looks awesome.. I am most excited because now for some crazy reason we have left over mattresses so for those of you who are dying inside to come sleep over we got a bed just for you.yay:)

Nothing fancy

Well here goes- just a quick update on the lives of the Smiths. We just got home from grandma Sandra and grandpa Davids house we spent 9 days there and I am pretty sure they were ready to see us go. We had a super good time I love visiting and spending time with the fam. We played tons of games had mama mia sing along blowout and ate till we couldn't eat anymore. We had a blast, Whitney took us to this awesome sledding hill and we were there until 1:30 in the morning sledding..My kids are die hards..Kait gave up and sat in the car while the rest of us got even crazier. Laken went on a jump that sent him like 5 ft. in the air landed on his tummy and continued down the hill..When he finally stopped he tells aunt Whitney "now that's the way to go" we all laughed so hard.. Our last run of the night we decided to make a train with Riv at the front then Whit then Lakey and last but not least the old mama( that's me for those of you who didnt catch that) we went down the hill so fast we flew off the curb into the road down the street coming to an abrupt end in the other curb smashing Rivs finger between her sled an the curb.. It was great. While the kids and I were having the time of our lives Mike was home believing he was going to die with something he was diagnosing as meningitis or something close to that.. He thought for sure he would be dead so sure he was making sure his life insurance was in order.. Well its good to let everyone know that he is doing much better. He started himself on some antibiotics that luckily kait had for her skin and they have done a great job of helping him get better.. Thank goodness cause what would we do with out him..We love our Daddy..

LUCKY

What a lucky girl I am to have TWO new nieces within 1 week of each other.Angie had her beautiful baby girl last week.They named her Justice Im not quite sure on the spelling but you get the point..Last night Mel had her Darling little girl and we are not 100% sure on the name but most likely she will be named Brooklyn.I am lucky to live so close to mel so I got to see her baby when she was new however I am not so lucky to live so far from Angie I have not yet been able to see their baby in real life yet but soon very soon..I am so happy for both you girls,congrats.. I think that it will be awesome for these two little cousins to grow up together being so close in age..

WOOHOO WHITNEY

Today my baby sister Whitney is graduating from BYU Hawaii .We are all so proud of her and her achievements..Hopefully she will use her expertise in Hurricane so she can be close to her awesome sisters..I can hardly believe that so much time has gone by that my little bro is getting married and my baby sis is graduating college. How time flies before I know it hopefully my own son and daughters will be doing some of these same things.( Kait in college so she can get a great job and take care of her ever loving parents) Good job Whit and I hope your future holds great things for you..

PeOpLe PLEASE

Please I beg of everyone with kids,if your child is sick please please please keep them HOME from school.Why do I say this? Well today Rivers comes home from school and says that they have an illness going around school that sounds a lot like the roto virus im not sure if thats how you spell that but you get the point. What is this you ask it is serious diareah and some serious barfs..Well just a couple of hours after that I get a phone call from Kaits school telling me that the county health dept. has notified them of several students that have been seen for pertusis( whooping cough) sick I know they follow that up with please check your imunization records to make sure your student has had this shot because this is a very contagious virus..Oh great so if these idiot parents who send their kids to school sick would keep them home I am pretty sure this would not be a problem..So PLEASE if your child is sick keep them HOME, sickness is really not something we need to share..Thanks and have a great day :)

We are finally home!

Well it took us only 11 days to wear out our welcome, I think my mom and dad and whit are probably breathing a sigh of relief after we left the drive way yesterday. We had so much fun being with family again we played games,watched several episodes of that 70s show ate a ton and just plain old enjoyed each other.We stayed so long that Laken actually thought we had moved in. He was talking to Whit and said something about before we moved here ,wow what a confused kid.. We did have a lot of fun and hopefully we didnt totally drive them insane. Thank you mom and dad for letting us stay and thank you to Michael for giving up your bed and thanks to Whit for not killing my kids. Love you guys and dad I hope you are doing well..
