Text of the page (random words):
efore i ve had a chance to print it out today i ordered 3 blog books and i ll probably have to order at least 6 more to be all caught up i m pretty much humiliated by 75 of the content here and that is what has kept me from printing it out however the other day logan was sitting on the couch reading one of my two blog books from 2005 2008 is all i have printed and i realized that as embarrassing as they may be they are a record of our family life during those years and i should make sure they re preserved i guess the kids love them i m super embarrassed by a lot of it but i was young and very open oh well here we are at the end of 2018 time sure does fly lexi is in her senior year logan is a junior macey is in 8th grade and mack is in 2nd my kids like to be involved too involved i think but it s also good so i m constantly torn between hating the involvement in everything and realized it s good for them too some of the things my kids are involved in are x country dance team piano and guitar lessons madrigals lexi has a job at a local frozen yogurt shop basketball right now and swimming in the spring sewing class church responsibilities assassin maybe it s own post someday and more luckily lexi and logan both drive and have been pretty good at sharing the car so i am not running around that much anymore life is insanely busy but i really am aware of trying to enjoy every minute because i know these kids of mine will be gone so fast and i ll miss it all when i look back at motherhood i think the first 8 years crept by but since then it has flown by next fall at this time lexi will be off at college and the fall after that logan will be then i ll just have 2 kids at home i think i should probably get a job i don t want to work right now but i like to feel a sense of purpose so i might need to work we will see i thought i d give more of an update but this is all i have time for merry christmas denae posted by d dawg 0 comments monday december 08 2014 alice in wonderland macey recently performed in the walnut acres fall play of alice in wonderland she was the queen of hearts she really wanted to the part and i didn t know if she would get it there are a lot of girls that try out and she s small i thought they d want someone bigger and scarier well she got the part and she was thrilled the first night i saw her perform i couldn t help but laugh this part was made for macey or macey was made for this part she spent most of her early years pretending to be sharpay from high school musical and the queen is basically sharpay bossy mean loud dramatic and controlling with a glare that makes everyone around her shrink macey had it all down and did a great job the part that suprised me was how loud she was and how confident and how well she sang if you can t tell i was really proud of her here are some shots her grand entrance off with their heads she must have said that line 15 times she had a lot of family and friends come to support her and that means so much to me as her mom thank you friends and family i don t know what happened but i lost some of the pictures i took but i want to have it be known that my parents were there and dustin and moriah too when i find those missing pictures i will update this post this is our cute neighbor kristin macey s friend clarabel aunt emily and cousin parker uncle devin and cousin wyatt grandma susie macey and her friend guilia who was alice macey and her cousin miles when miles saw her acting as the queen on stage he said very loudly why is macey being so mean it was super funny the best part about this whole thing was that cousin conner and macey got to do the play together that means week after week they stayed after school together hung out and walked home together they spent hours working on their lines and practicing the dance moves they became such great friends and i am so happy about it what lucky cousins to have eachother and have so much fun together it makes me so happy conner did an awesome job too he has a great voice and blew me away here s a video just for fun posted by d dawg 2 comments tuesday september 23 2014 3 obsessions lately i am obsessed with three things my new watch it s hard for me to find watches that fit right and look right and feel good so i rarely wear one i finally found this and i m obsessed i look at it every other minute it s super light weight and fits perfectly in the spot on my wrist where i want it to sit loooovvvveeeee vitality bowls they re expensive and all the way downtown but they are so incredibly delish and make me feel healthy too i want one everyday but really i m just going to start making them myself so i don t break the bank it s basically an acai berry smoothie topped with granola almonds honey fruit and other great things how hard can it be anyone have a recipe scotcharoos they are the devil i have made 4 batches in the last 3 weeks and i m devouring them without control i just finished off my last pan today and i swore i wouldnt make them for a good long while the reason i love them is they re chewy chocolately a little crunchy and take less than 10 minutes to make i only wish they made individually wrapped cups of peanut butter so i don t have to dig out of the jar that s all posted by d dawg 4 comments thursday september 18 2014 out with the old sometimes i can be impulsive and i love to get rid of things organize de junk but when i get in an impulsive de junking mood i often do things i regret well this summer i got rid of our beloved family piano logan needed some motivation to practice and he kept blaming this one key that was sticking and not playing as well so in an effort to get him motivated again i decided to get a new piano our neighbors had mentioned that they wanted to get rid of theirs so i went to look at it i was rushed and took a quick photo in the photo the lighting must have been just right because as i looked at it over the next few days i started to actually think it was cute it was smaller and small is good plus it was newer and probably worked better so i listed our piano on facebook and my old bwood neighbor wanted to come pick it up perfect except when i looked at our cute piano being loaded into the trailer and it hit me that all the kids had learned to play on it that it was one of our oldest pieces of furniture we d had the longest that was a great decor peice and i started to freak out but a deal is a deal and our friends had rented a trailer and come all the way down for it i had to go through with it it was very sad even more sad when we went across the street to get our new piano and saw how ugly it was it s an orange y wood color and the keys are yellowish it s small and won t fit my christmas tree collection on top at christmastime like our old one plus there s just nothing special about it and instead of enhancing the living room it actually makes it worse so i cried for a few hours and then decided that i just had to move on things are just things and don t matter i can paint our new piano and make it cuter and i have these pictures to remember our old one everyone does stupid things sometimes but you can t wallow in it you just need to look to the future haha these are all the thoughts i was forcing into my brian at the time now that it s been gone a few months i m mostly over it i ll miss it at christmas time and i ll always regret my decision but that s just life and that was a long post to tell a simple story so what color should i paint the new one any suggestions in our neighbors house moving out the old the new ugly one in my house it needs some help stay tuned posted by d dawg 3 comments labels decision regrets personal progress award lexi worked so hard this year to complete her personal progress and receive her young woman recognition award she did 8 ten hour projects lots of service read the whole book of mormon and did a lot of other studying learning and

about our theme and then do father s blessings we had stroganauf this year plus homemade rolls corn on the cob peaches and frozen hot chocolate for dessert we were stuffed we usually have the feast outside but it was cold that day the kids each got a journal and eraser they were excited then the first day of school arrived this year we have 8th grade 7th grade 4th grade and preschool the kids were mostly happy to go back ok only kindof they got great teachers and i m sure it s going to be a great year preschool didn t start till the following week but so far so good mack likes it i think and is starting to make some friends he loves the playground the most and wants to play everyday after school it s hard to pull him away his school doesn t allow backpacks and that s why he has this little white tote the bigs kids of course headed off to middle school on the first day and i hung around with macey until the bell rang she was excited to see some of her friends the best part of the year though is cousins to walk with and see at school between us the blodgett s and danny and christy we have 5 kids there and each grade represented yeah heading out of pawnee it s always bitter
