Working 9 to 5

So I am no longer just a stay at home mom anymore! After much thought & this lovely economy I am now going back to work after a nice 10 year break! I am now working every MONDAYs and TUESDAYs at SIMPLE PLEASURES SALON at 57 E. state street from 9 to 5 . It isnt quite the right time for me since I still have a 2 year old at home but with trevor going to school it will really help out. So if any of you need anything just let me know........ I have a great Color line and a GREAT Highlight and Low light line. I also do eyebrow waxing/haircuts/Perms etc etc. I really do love it! There is a girl at my salon that does nails, and she really does a great job- My sister also does Eyelash extensions ! They are awsome and are so cute! It takes about an hour or so! I do hair for Proms and great going out do's- I do give great discounts for family and friends so let everyone know! I know this is a shameless plug for myself but I just thought I would let everyone know that Im back in the game!

BUSY, BUSY, BUSY

It is just so funny how fast time does fly! I guess thats what comes with the territory of having 5 kids- I just feel like i never get anything done but am always doing something. The spring time is always really busy for us, Addi just started Gymnastics- boy is that girl flexible. Anika started ballet and Ashlyn is starting league soccer in st. george and Ashia is in the new play coming this spring in Laverkin. So I pretty much am just driving here there and everywhere. Trevor is no where to be found he works full time and goes to school full time and sleeps the rest of the time so we only see him a few hours a week. Between all this and 3 church callings and room mom , Im POOPED! But on the bright side I am really excited I just got a new camera, so I will feel that I have more to share now- Not that its that interesting.

We have had the rounds of sickness at our house this year! First it was the colds and coughs and then it was the 24 hour flu! Not fun!!!!! Then last week my kids got 4 day long fevers followed by some weird mouth virus! that causes severe coldsores and fever blisters all in their mouths! My baby was the worst. It was so sad to see them in so much pain!

Here is our cute little Yorkie that we got for christmas, He wasnt able to come home until the first week in feb. i just keep thinking to myself what was I thinking- (Especially at 5:00 am this morning but hey the kids love dogs!

Here is my two year old! She love to play with her old baby stuff and we just laughed our heads off that she fell asleep in her old carseat! She still is my baby, even though she is growing up so fast! too fast if you ask me!

14 years old Today!

14 years old WOW how times flys- My Little Demon is now growing up to be such a wonderful young woman! She just wants to hang out with a couple of friends today and go to the movies and to DQ- I might just tag a long especially because im the driver! Ashia has been such a joy! She really is such a good teenager- She is very smart! Very Driven! and will go places in her life! I just hope when she gets rich and famous she remembers her dear old mother! Especially the rich part! She loves to read, being in plays, school (now who loves that) and she is good at what ever she puts her mind to! Im very grateful that she decided in heaven to let me be her mom and that she got to be my very first Ginny-pig, while trying to learn this mom bit. She reminds me daily that in only one year she can get her learners permit and now can go to stake dances! Wow wasn't it just yesterday that I was at dances, and learning how to drive! We love you Miss Ashia, thanks for letting me have the privilege of being your MOM! i love you

HE MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT MIRACLES CAN HAPPEN IN LIFE! i CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT 15 YEARS!


HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TREV!

HOLIDAY-WHOBIE-WHATIE

This is exactly how I feel this year! For some reason I don't have very much holiday spirit! Im excited don't get me wrong, but Im just oh so tired! Just thinking about how much there is to do- along with church callings, homework, the freezing weather, and everything else. I just wish there was a day just to stay in bed with nothing to do and no reason what so ever to even get out of my PJ"S. FOR A WEEK! I know I just probably need a good night sleep but even that seems to be gone these days! I still have to pick up ashia from her play tonight and it is 10:00 at night!

Our school has a thing called "HARVEST OF TALENTS" its kind of like reflections-
Addison won 2nd Place- SHORT STORY
Ashlyn won 3rd place- drawing-
but cried all night because for the last two years she has gotten first place. How do you teach them to be good sports and be grateful for what they have! Because her younger sister ANIKA did a drawing for 2nd grade and didnt receive anything.
All the while we had to listen to Ash who was devastated ! "KIDS THESE DAYS- SO DECENSITIZED(?) by movies and other things" (THE GRINCH)

WELL AT LEAST WE HAD FAMILY HOME EVENING TONIGHT!
the kids made the Christmas count down. Where you make a holiday figure- we did santa claus and then you get 24 pieces of chocolate (my FAV) and roll them up in clear wrap and tie a ribbon around each candy so it makes a long chain of candy and we hung it up . The kids cant wait for december 1st to come! BUT I SURE CAN!
