Crazy Life!!

Sometimes i wonder what i would do if i didn't have soooooo much to do. Would i keep my house clean? would i get all my half done crafts done? would i relax!!? (how i wish i could!) Well this last week and upcoming weeks will be no different i will continue to run around until i am blue in the face!! This week i have a job relate conference in Boise ID so i am leaving for the wednesday after work for that and will be working all day thursday 12 hours and then all day friday only about 7 hours then i am driving home that night so i can be ready for my friends wedding on saturday where i am a bridesmaid for the first and last time of my life!! and her wedding is seriously going to be a full day afair with almost no breaks. then next week will be halloween in poky i hope and that saturday i will be doing scentsy fun allllllllllll day too i might have 3 parties. The early parts of my week look calm but they will be spent trying to catch up on laundry, cleaning, time with the family and tmrw we are going with some neighbors for some halloween fun, corn maze, hay slides, pumpkins and more!! I got a little razzed for not having a single picture of johnny with my last blog so i will add it to here!! and i will post another blog about tmrws fun after tmrw happens!!!

Johnny!

Well this last week was interesting! Scott's best friend Johnny Cardell came to stay 2 days and 1 night with us before he flew to Australia to be with his wife. So we decided to go to the park and take some pictures with him cause he is an uncle to the kids and like a brother to scott so i thought it would be fun. And johnny has a freakin nice camera so we needed to use it right? I will put these pictures on a slide show as soon as i can figure it out but for now her are a few to tease you all!!

Craft Show!

These are just pictures from the 4th of July! One family picture and a picture with my friend Julie!

The last week was again another crazy week I was getting ready for my craft show where i was selling my scentsy *wickless candles* (www.scentsy.com/moon) and my jewelry so needless to say all last week i was getting 4-5 hours of sleep! Then Scott decided to also can some beef, chicken, and boston baked beans. Which ment my kitchen was dirty again!

When i went to pocatello for the craft show i knew i couldn't have the kids with me during the weekend cause they couldn't be at the show so Grandma and Grandpa Doncouse kept them from friday morning till saturday night for me and the kids loved it they got to play tons watch movies in the theater room ride a horse and pretty much just wipe grandma and grandpa out! while the kids were playing i was selling at the show and friday night I stayed the night at my friend Julie and Dustin's house and we played wii fit which she is now the leader in hula hooping (I will be changing that soon!) and we just played and had fun. Then on saturday i was planning on driving home after the show when Julie offered ther house again even though i had my kids with me! WOW brave friends!!!!!! So we stayed and it again was a blast the kids were good and full of energy!! Especially Shane cause he got a late nap at Doncouse's and then we let them have brownies and ice cream! Then we tried to watch the morning conference through the kid noise. THe kids loved playing with julie and dustin and it was so fun watching them all together. You can read julie's version of the story on her blog click on my friend "the Morris life" to read it!!

Thanks Julie and Dustin for such a fun and relaxing weekend I love you both and i am grateful that we are such great friends. Especially thanks for being so patient! and loving to my kids they love you both and love play with you!!

Canning!!!

I am happy to say that after 8 days an average of 6-7 hours a day. we are finally done with all our peaches, pears, and green beens we have canned about 240 jars ranging in size and items in it!! Unfortunantely we will be reopening some of our juices to turn them into jelly and syrup!! I am hoping that we can wait a few weeks or months before we start into those! Now i am just trying to clean and take all the jars to the basement! These pictures are from sunday showing the mid way progress!!!

Overwhelmed

Hey everyone!!! I waited to post another blog just to see how you all would vote!! :) So i have been checking my blog thinking of ones i should post and pictures i should add but just waiting to see if any of you had any faith in me! he he

So i am so freakin tired! I have about 15 loads of laundry to do, my entire house to clean, I need to haul about 100 more jars of peach crap! 5 bags of 25 lbs of sugar and 120 cans of food to the basement and then label everything (including the 250 cans down there we just bought) and find places for it all on our shelves that are already full even though we just bouth 2 more huge shelves that are 6 ft tall!!! I need to wash all the jars of peaches before we haul them down cause they are sticky and my entire kitchen is a sticky mess from all the canning!!!

But good news is we have a TON of FOOD in our food storage and i feel pretty good about the amount there are just a few more things to buy and then from here on out we will just do our coupon shopping and cut our grocery bill down to almost nothing!!

Okay sorry about my grumpy post but I AM TIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOODNIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too Busy To Do What I Want!

So, this is Teresa's first post, and .. well.. she isn't writing it. This is Julie, her upmost bestest friend in the whole entire world... (she may word it a little different). Teresa told me today that she decided she wanted to join the blogging world, but she is just too busy to do what she wants to do. So together with her in the kitchen taking care of MORE PEACHES and myself in by her computer typing away, we have put together this blog. HOPEFULLY, this won't be the only entry, but the beginning of Many! Maybe we should vote! See the bottom of the page to cast yours now!!!
