SILENCE

I am just shocked at how fast time passes. So many things have happened the past week that it is hard to know where to start. Here are a few highlights from the week.

Cooper had a hard time sleeping the other night due to GAS issues. I don't think we had more than a few hours of sleep. I was dragging all day long! I couldn't take it any longer so I told Carson and Kelton that I was going upstairs to TRY and take a nap. They had a funny smirk on their faces as I was walking up the stairs. Time passed and I had zonked out for about an hour. I woke up and heard nothing.....just SILENCE. I peeked down the stairs and found the most amazing site I have ever seen in my life. Carson and Kelton sitting on the couch with a book and blanket reading. No t.v. was on, no loud fighting, no crying......just SILENCE. As I walked the rest of the way down the stairs all I saw was a SPOTLESS CLEAN home. While I was sleeping they washed the dishes, moped the floor, cleaned their rooms, put a load of laundry in the wash and pretty much scoured every ounce of our home. I honestly didn't know how in the heck they were capable of doing all of this. I was SO impressed that I just about fainted. The cute thing about it was they did it for ME! They knew I was exhausted and couldn't do much more so they decided to do it for ME. Oh how I love those little guys. They sure make me smile.

  • Yesterday we had to take the truck down to Idaho Falls to get the plow mounted for the winter season. The exciting part was we got to spend the whole day with Brian. We hung out at home depot, Sam's club, sportsman's, game world and ate lunch at Olive Garden.....YUM. We had a great time together as a family. It is not often we get to spend the WHOLE day doing fun stuff.

  • Stayed home and made some yummy cookies for the scouts.

  • Played with the boys.

  • Cooper gets a tooth!

  • Went to the Library. And of course......went to Dave's Jubilee. YIPPEE!
With a busy week usually comes a busy weekend. I will be working at the hospital this weekend. Cam and Leah are coming to visit to purchase some land up above our place. It is such a great piece of property. Can't wait!
