Long Time no see.....

Okay so I think I should start up the "Ol" Blog again or should I say, have my daughter Shelby write It for me. I love all the comments and sweet words you all leave me so I deiced we should let you know of our craziness and be entertained by our family.
December: We went down to Arizona for Christmas and It was so fun to be with my parents and my brother and his family. We drove all night to get there and it was awful! The twins cried all night! About Vegas I told Mark, who had his ipod on to pull over i am about to lose it! He got me another Diet Coke and we kept driving.. We finally made it and it was a great time with family. When we arrived home to snow and lots of it, it was great to be back..

This last school year i went back to work part time. I was the Lunch Lady at Lincoln Academy. It was really fun! I got to meet all the kids and laugh with all the teaching staff. When school was ending i was sort of sad to leave for the summer. I hope i can return next year or I might need to go to work full time. Mark was laid off in April and it has been so hard to find employment. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

In February, the twins Reagan and Reese turned 3. Three has been a bit eaiser, but double the trouble. Let me tell you of some of the naughty things they got into....
Reagan walked behind our soccer net and yelled to Reese to "help i am stuck, help me Reese", well the little lady that loves anything that cuts grabs the scissors and cuts her out....
Many times you would find them locked in to the car waving hello to us...
Many times they tried to paint, there bodies and toes with finger polish....
Sneaking out to go walk in the snow in there dress up clothes...
Many pretty pictures on our new walls.. Thank goodness for magic erasers..
They always keep us laughing, and we don't know where our life would be without them...

Talmage is almost 5.. I really can't believe it. He had another great year at Preschool with Ms. April. I think he made her laugh most everyday. He was able to have his Grandpa and Grandma Bishop go for Grandparents breakfast.
He loved going and we think he did well and, he is ready to head to Kindergarden...
Mark had to take him for his Shots and he was telling some friends the other night, that he even got to pee in a cup...
He also makes us laugh. He loves any computer games and he loves the Wii... He completed all levels on Super Mario Galaxley... Yes just like his Dad.
He loves to play and he really loves any small toy, because he makes most items fly.
Our nephew just returned from his mission, and Talmage still thinks he went to space....

Sydney just completed the 5th grade.. Wow where did that time go... She is almost as tall as i am and is so full of energy. If she just gets done with something, she want to do something else.. She is always keeping us jumping. She played Basketball and is playing Softball and she also tried Lacross this year. I told her to pick her favorite and she picked all three..Her class also was involved in Hope Of America... She loved going to that, Mark and I were glad it was shorter this year.. She will turn 12 in November and will be in Young Womens. She is a great help to us and makes us laugh...

Shelby our teenager..... She turned 13 in May... I know i just said this but really where did time go... This year she was a big 7th grader! She was able to go with her Journalist class to Washington DC. She loved it. She was able to see many places, the White House, The Pentagon, The Temple and many other awesome places. She was a part of a group who won best Newspaper for a Junior High class. She loves writting for the newspaper. She also loves hanging with her friends or talking to them or texting them. She is very social and she always has a smile on her face. She was also in the Choir for school and she did great! We loved going to her performaces. Shelby and I just returned from Girls camp. This has been my second year with Shelby and i just love going. I hope she enjoys going with me.. It is fun to see her grow each year. She has many wonderful friends at camp.
