So yes I am so far behind in my blogging that it is sickening. You see I got a discount for publisher books to get my scrapbook for 2011 done without the extra page fee. So I have spent my blogging time for scrapbooking and now I am behind in this.
You see I have run into a problem with my scrapbooking and it looks something like this... Although I have the rest of them stored in my bedroom closet because they all wont fit in this closet. See this scrapbooking of mine is just taking up too much space in my house. So I have started doing digital so instead of 3 big huge 12x12 books that are about 2 inches thick each for one year. I am getting it bound into a book that is only 1 inch thick. It seems more expensive now but I am sure in the future I will be glad I changed my ways.
The last half of January was fun as always I must say I have never enjoyed January but this year has been ok for me. I don't know if it is because I signed up for my first triathlon and so I am looking ahead to the future and not the snowless winter days that we have had this year or what. But YES I am going to get that triathlon off my buckets list come May. I am just hoping I can cross the finish line, Kami signed up with me so it will be fun to have something to work towards. So working out of course has been a big part of my days well just about 1-2 hours depending on the day but it sure cuts into my schedule.
With our pass of all passes we got free Grizzly hockey game tickets so Terry took the boys and went with Troy and his girls while I carpooled Matia to dance. She is so funny she happy to go to dance rather then some sporting event. Silly girl she drags her feet to dance every week except this one just because she is getting out of a hockey game. The boys had fun and came home with so much excitement they are ready to go again!
Then on the 20th I went out to Wendover with Holly and Tonja. They are such great girls and I don't know what it is but when I am with them they just have a way of making me feel young. I guess it is all that giggling we do when we are together. We went to see "Little Big Town" at the concert hall. It was fun but it was no Sawyer Brown! Then we spent the next night dancing at the Nugget. I don't think we stopped until 2:30 in the morning. But we did have a good time and yes we slept really good and didn't wake up until right before check-out time. Thanks Girls!
That week was filled with more basement work, basketball practices, basketball games, piano, dance, scouts, and spending $500 on paint for the basement. Yes we are getting closer and it is so fun to see it coming along! The kids have been so good to do their homework without us and reading at bedtime together and going to sleep on time so we can just keep working. They want it finished more then we do! But it is fun to see how far it has come just this year!
Then on the 27th I got to go to see One for the Money with some fun friends of mine who share the same love for those books. These girls were in the book club with me some time back and they got me reading these Janet Evanovich books which were just hilarious. So when we found out they were making a movie for the first one we started planning a party for it. We ate some delicious food, talked about these funny books with 2 hot guys in it, and then went to watch the movie. It was good but like always my imagination is so much more creative. But I did love the movie!
The 28th Terry went elk hunting with the boys again. So this was a good night for a movie so me and the kids went to see Real Steel at the sticky shoe. We all loved the movie so much that I think someday we will have to buy it. We all just wish Terry was there to see it with us even though he is not a big movie goer we all agreed he would have loved this one. Then Tayla and Izak got to sleep over, staying up late and chit chatting like cousins do. While I stayed up making 12 days of Valentines for Terry.
