MY kichen? A MESS???

My kitchen's never really that messy. In fact, I told my friend, Danielle, just the other day that my house is almost ALWAYS clean. LOL! Look at it now! Me and my big mouth...

Wind Storm

We're having a storm this evening. The wind is blowing really hard. Nothing new here really. Haylee was outside with Elizabeth, though, and I just HAD to get this picture. What timing!

OH! And we're finally getting some rain! It's about dang time!

Grape Tomatoes

I have LOTS of grape tomatoes in my garden if anyone is interested in purchasing or trading something from their garden.

$2 per 1/2 lb. or trade!!! We love squash, green beans and fruit among other things. Just post a comment!

1st Day of Kindergarten

Yesterday was Lauren's 1st Day of Kindergarten. When I asked her how she felt about it, if she was excited, she told me "Ya, but I'm also nervous." I asked her why she was nervous and she told me she was worried that she'd miss me when she was gone. Ahhh, how sweet. She's so dang cute.

BEFORE SCHOOL

At the bus stop w/her buddy, Ryan.

We waited forever for the bus and I ended up just driving them to school.

Walking home from the bus stop after school with her "big" sister Haylee. =)

School

I just realized that some people maybe be confused. Yes, I was home-schooling last year. And then just a few days ago you saw pictures of the kids' 1st day of school. Yes, I put them back in public school. I home-schooled for an entire year and it's just too hard (for me, anyway) to teach 4 kids at 4 completely different levels. I just don't have the patience that some people have for teaching, I guess. Anyways, I'm exited and THEY are excited to be back in school. After home-schooling for a year, I have a new appreciation for public school. I guess my husband and I will just have to un-teach the things we don't agree with in the public school system, at home.

Children's Upscale Re-sale Boutique

My friend, Nanette, just recently opened an Upscale Children's Boutique in San Diego, CA called Fresh Picked Boutique. It's located at 6904 Miramar Road Suite #103. She's selling a lot of brand name items in excellent condition. I wish she lived closer so that I could shop there as well! The more kids I have, the more I realize just how much longer brand names out last everything else.

Mention Jessica in Utah and you'll get a discount! Happy shopping!

Closed

They closed the diner as of yesterday (Thursday). I guess it was just WAY too crazy for the little place to handle. They're gonna open back up Monday with the hours of 10am-9pm. They'll be making some changes over the weekend to better handle the amount of people we're getting in there. Who would have thought it would be so popular???
