Just one of those weeks....??

Have you every had just one of those weeks... you know the ones where you feel like they should be over but its only Tuesday? Where you are just tired? Where you feel like there are a million things to do but you are not motivated to do any of them? Where you just feel "blah"?

That is me this week.... I am in a funk I think and I know I just need to snap out of it but for some reason that is harder to do than one would think. So here I am, 10:50pm... awake and frustrated that I can't sleep because I can't turn off my mind. Some things I am thinking about right now:

1. Why am I so emotional?
2. How can I have a less emotional conversation with my husband, certainly he is not as emotional as I, therefor the emotion ends up being one sided and I'm the only one upset?
3. How can I be a better communicator?
4. Laundy..... laundry.... laundry....
5. My babysister is moving... to THAILAND.. yes THAILAND PEOPLE!!! I am super excited that she is going... because I know how much it means to her to go, but I am sad at the same time. Who am I am going to google chat with at 1:00am if she is gone??
6. Why do my muscles have to hurt so bad....??

7. Why do I sound so whinny in my head???

8. Gosh I wish I was sleeping now....

9. Please God don't let me be getting sick... my throat is killing me!

So that is just the top of the list... really I could go on and on but that is probably why I am not sleeping.... lol...

I am going to change my week! I want to have a good week, a good attitude, more patience, more fun, and more smiles! I want to be out of my funk!!

Good night!

Sorry its been so long...

Gosh it feels like forever since I last blogged! Anyway, here are the reasons why I have been MIA....

We were in Reno for a week with limited Internet access and then we were in Carson City at my grandparents who don't have wireless access so no internet basically...lol! Then when we got home I had my kidney stone removed which was harder than I thought it would be. Felt like I got hit by a truck the first two days. Anyway, I think things are getting back to nomal so I am hoping to pick back up blogging... even though I have made a resolve to not be on the computer so much during the day. It was really actually very nice without it, less of a distraction and more time with the boys! I loved it!

Anyway, hope this finds you all well and I will post some fun pictures from out vacation maybe at nap time!

XOXO

Labor Day...

So I am really behind in getting this post out, but to be honest,I am still recovering from a long weekend. It was a great one though. With my sister leaving in a little over a month to live in Thailand, we have been trying to get in as much time together as a family as possible.

Friday night my parents were so great to bring dinner over here to us, we hung out and ate yummy food. (Thank you Iron Chef Mom) Then Saturday we celebrated Father's Day...LOL... We had planned to take my Father in Law to an Angels game for Fathers day but it was not going to work out so we did his second favorite thing, had good steak! Melissa and Macha came up from LA and we hung out all evening. Macha made the best corn on the cob ever! He boiled it first until it was almost done and then put it on the grill to finish it off. While it was on the grill he brushed it with Soy Sauce which made it AMAZING!! It was great to spend time with the Huff/Suzuki family. I always enjoy our conversations...

Sunday was filled with lots of stuff. We went to see our good friends daughter get dedicated in the morning at Sonlife church in Apple Valley and then went over to their house for a BBQ. It was a nice relaxing time. We always laugh a lot with them so it makes any day fun! Then we went to my parents, who live around the corner from our friends, and hung out with my sister and her boyfriend Geoff. We ended up playing one of our favorite games, Settlers of Catan, that we did not get to finish because it was so late. My mom was awesome and let us keep it set up all night so we could finish in the morning.

Monday was BBQ time!! The older boys, Jake and Carter, wanted to spend the night with Nana and Papa so Ricky and I got to sleep in. We headed over around 10 am and when Geoff got there at noon we finished our game! He won again!! Stinking Geoff! Before he leaves for Japan he is going to need to get beat so he does not go on thinking he is the KING of Cattan!

Monday afternoon was filled with family and amazing friends. We ate good food, laughed, played in the pool, and took naps. Played Scrabble (ya I lost again) and Scategories! We stayed until it was time for bed for the little ones and then headed home! We were all asleep by 9:00pm! It was a great day!

I have pictures from hanging out on Monday so I will post those later. Noah wants to eat... so off I am go to take care of that! Hope you all had an amazing weekend!
