Scholarship

I applied for a scholarship to study in China and I found out today that I have passed through the first round of the application process. Now I have to apply directly to the Chinese embassy. They want letters of recommendation, transcripts, a copy of my BYU diploma etc. so I have been scrambling today to get everything put together. I have to get a physical for it too. It is going to be a big pain.

Heaven help me

Last night at 2 am after trying to get Gideon to sleep for about 4 hours I finally put him to bed for the night in his carseat where he slept for 6 hours. If I don't get a nap today my children will have a VERY grumpy mom all day.

First post in a long time

I thought it was best time to get back on the sibling blog. Let the sibling Blog Resurrection project begin......

Death To Evidence

But in 24 hours I will be done with it.

Christmas

It has been so much fun to have Cat (otherwise know as "duck" by Ezra) and Andrew here to visit. Can't wait until Christmas when we can all be together!!

Cog

Cool commercial.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Enough said.

I'm pretty sure about half of the words coming out of my mouth lately have been "no" or some other form of "don't do that". Hopefully Ezra won't remember this part of his life too much because it would result in serious insecurities regarding trying new things ☹

Synthpop!!!!

Puppies

PUPPIES!!!!

2 a.m.

So, this is the kind of thing you see when you are watching TV at 2 am. I know you want one.

Andrew's Done!

I got to talk to Andrew today. It was nice to have a conversation with him. I can't believe he is done with his mission. I bet Diana and Catherine are excited to see him come home on Monday. I can't wait until we come home for Christmas, it will be awesome!

Smooth Jazz

So I created a pandora account which is supposed to pick music for you based on what they think you will like. I was listening to it today when I heard a song that I remember hearing on the breeze 97.9 fm.

Scary.

Nostalgia

So I have been unproductive and looking at old blog entries for a while now. We were pretty witty at one point and then it kind of petered out. Maybe it was because Andrew left, he was always good for a laugh.

On a related note, he is done with his mission in two days! That is so crazy! I am excited to see everybody for Christmas, it should be super fun. We can eat breakfast for dinner and watch the Muppet Christmas Carol etc. Maybe we can get Ezra to jump off of the sign since everybody else is too mature to do that now.

Also, I will be home in time for the Tab Choir Christmas concert which will be awesome.

Revive It!

come on

The Blog is Dead

True Story

Marco

What you can get for 4 bucks...

Yesterday we went to Ross to find some shirts for Joe. We came across this video and thought we would get it for Ezra since he loves trucks so much (and since I love laying down so much).....pretty great theme song if you ask me : )

80's music rocks

Especially this

Bust My Buffers

For all of you toddler TV pro's out there you know that is from "Thomas and Friends" which is one of Ezra's new favorite shows. I am having old memories of me with the Turner boys come to me every time I watch it with Ezra. This show has brought out quite a sensitive side that I didn't know Ezra has. There are a few episodes where some trains crash or get torn apart and every time that Ezra sees those parts he comes to me whimpering until the trains get better. Who knew? I hope you all have a great Memorial Day weekend!
