BOISE IS WHERE I WANT TO BE

So as some of you know, when Cassidy is finished with high school, my plan is to move to Boise Idaho. This is the house I am planning on buying. I am sure it will be sold by then but wow what a deal and they are abundant there. GET ME OUT OF VEGAS !

Like the outside isn't great enough...look at this kitchen!!!


2 more years!

PICTURES FROM CAMP

Taylor is loving being the rock climbing instructor at camp! I am so proud of her. It is just another one of the things she has done that makes me so proud. She is doing a great job I am sure. It is truly the first time she has been "on her own". When she went to Kindergarten Scott was at the same school. When she went to Middle School , She went to a private school where Scott was there as a Freshman in high school. When she went to High school, he was there with her. When she went off to college at USU...Scott was there. I had never really looked at it that way until one night I got a late night text from Scott saying how he felt strange about her going off and his being there. He told me he contacted his friends that were at camp ( he was an archery instructor there 2 summers ago) and asked them to keep an eye on her. I know I say how amazing my kids are all of the time but seriously how great are my kids!! Anyway, here are a few candid pictures I took from thew camp website of Tay doing her thing. They are lucky to have her there.

I MISS YOU DAD

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY~I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU EVERY SINGLE DAY

THEY GROW UP...AND KEEP LEAVING!

So I feel sad today. My second oldest, Taylor 19 left today...again. She left last summer to attend college in Utah. It took me a few weeks to get past being sad. Don't get me wrong, I was thrilled for her! I was sad for me. So all year I knew she would spend the summer at home with us and I would have her back, for a while at least. Well, being the amazing person that she is, an AMAZING camp called Gold Arrow ( I attended as a child and so did my kids) has hired her to be their rock climbing instructor. It is a wonderful opportunity for her and I know she loves the smell of the trees, campfires and she adores little kids. She will be in heaven. I on the other hand will miss her like crazy. Why cant they just stay little? I have tried to talk them into this but they just do not seem to agree. I still have the other 3 at home, for now. Until Scott leaves again...this is his LAST summer home before law school and the life of a big boy...ugg do not even get me started on that. I love you Tay....and I am so proud of you. P.S. Scott school called they said stay home lol just kidding...kinda

YES IT IS TRUE...I AM DIVORCED

After 23 years of marriage, Chad and I decided divorce was what was best for everyone. I will always love him, he is the father of my children and for that I will always be grateful. We are still friends, no hate, no bitterness just grew apart. So a new chapter begins and I am scared and excited. Thank you to all of my friends who have been amazing as I moved through the process of deciding what I need. I love you guys :)

SWINE FLU CRUISE

The cruise was so much fun! Me, my BFF since Middle School Ronni, My cousin Melanie, My mom and Pam went to Mexico and had a blast. We laughed until we cried, ate, watched people make fools of themselves and relaxed. This should be a yearly event. We are going to Iceland in December. That will be a great adventure!

ON THE CRUISE

Pictures to follow..Bon Voyage!!!
