Well it has been awhile since I've updated. Feburary just flew by. Things are starting to slow down a bit with us. Hopefully it will stay that way for a bit. Jeremy finished up the Ririe league basketball last week and has just has church ball. They start tournaments I think next week so he's about done with it. Olivia finished her basketball up on February 14th. She has improved quit a bit. In May she will start baseball and we will have that to do. It is fun to watch them get better and more confident. Jeremy has been busy working on the downstairs. It is really coming along. He got the cement poured for the shower last week. I got to help mix the mortar. That was a workout. It is looking like a bathroom now. Jeremy will start working on the tile probably this weekend. I can't wait to see it up. On the 19th it was our 9 year anniversary. We didnt do much since it was a weekday. Jeremy got me a pretty necklace with white and black diamonds. He spoils me! Friday night we left the kids with my parents and stayed at the Black Swan in Pocatello. We stayed in Atlantis. It was neat. They had a fish tank in the shower, behind the bed and a table. I know how I want to do the kids bathroom now. We went out to Red Lobster and I finally tried lobster. It was good. Saturday we didnt have to be out until 11 so we took our time. You get to choose what foods you want and they give them to you the night before so we didnt have to find anything for breakfast. We went to Home Depot on the way home and got the tile for the bathroom. Then we went and had lunch at Ruby River and made our way home. Mom had a fun time with the kids. I felt bad for her. Kirby stopped by with his two and mom was watching them also. Nate had came over to clean the saddles and so the girls were jumping on a saddle that was sitting on a bench. Livvy ended up jumping on it and landing on her hand and hurting it. She was tired so it was major drama. Then Nates dog bit Chantea really good on her hand. Mom laid Tayson on the couch and a remote fell off and bonked him on the head then Brynlee got her hand stuck in the couch. So Mom had a very eventful day. It was a good weekend though and we needed a bit of a break. Last week all the kids were sick with the flu. Elayne got it Monday. She was a bit grumpy but was pretty good until around 2. Her sisters woke her up so I was holding her and then she just threw up all over me. I had to put her in the bathtub and have Alex grab me some new clothes. I couldnt clean up Elayne till I got me done. Shes sitting in the bathtub with it all over. I was glad I had left her pants off so that made one less thing to take off. She only threw up the once but she was sick until Sunday. She had a fever Wednesday, Thursday and Friday morning. I was going to bring her to the doctor Friday but it cleared up. She didnt sleep well those days and just wanted held all day. Not fun! Alexandra got it Wednesday. She woke up and said her tummy kinda hurt but I sent her to school. She came home and ate some of her lunch then said she wasnt feeling good and laid down. She ended up throwing up all over the couch and floor. She only did the once but she had a fever Thursday so she stayed home from school. Livvy woke up Friday not feeling good so I made her stay home. She threw up most the morning then started feeling better by night. Chantea woke up that night around 11ish and threw up. She felt better Saturday then started feeling yucky again Monday and threw up . Jeremy got is Sunday and went to work for a bit Monday then came home. He still felt yucky yesterday. So I am just waiting my turn. I've had a wierd headache the last three days that has made me sick so I'm hoping that counts. =) I'm tired of sick! Today I went to my last dentist appointment. It was just to finish cleaning my teeth. I am very glad to be done with it. I almost forgot on the 23rd was the ward talent show that I was in charge of putting together. I turned out ok. We had some cancels but a couple of addons too. Livvy ended up singing two songs. Alex got scared and wouldnt do it. We even got her friends Stef and Kory Willmore to do it with her and she wouldnt so I had Livvy go up with them. Chantea wanted to do her turtle song but decided not to. Dont blame her! I sang Kiss The Girl. It was scary. I will not be doing that again. There was some neat talents though and I know what to do next year to improve it unless I'm lucky and someone else takes over. For the month of March I'm going to be going nuts wanting the snow to melt and things to dry up. We've had some nice weather lately and spring fever has hit. We aer going to try and get the chicken coop fixed up and get some chickens this year. We wanted to last year but there was too much snow and we couldnt get in to work on it. My parents want some too so we will get some for them also. They've got feeders and stuff so we shouldnt have to buy too much stuff for them. I'm eager to see if my plants survived the winter and to get the greenhouse ready. I mostly just need to clean all the weeds and stuff out of it. I want to get the rock put around the trees this year so we wont have to TRY and mow around them. I'm also hoping that will keep the dog from digging up my plants. I've got all my garden seed already and all I have left to get is some onion starts, potatoes and peppers. I'm going to attempt my tomatoes from seeds this year and if it works I'll do my onions and peppers next year. The girls are very eager to get camping (so am I) and Chantea keeps asking when we can go. Well I think that is all thats been going on in our crazy world. The pictures are of Black Swan, Livvy singing at the talent show and Elayne figured out she could put the flap thingy of her dress on her nose. She thought it was pretty funny.
