long time no blog... sorry!!

I hope this finds you all well...   we are keeping busy with school scouts, life...   for those that dont follow me on facebook..  I have gained more weight and up to 140 lbs.   this is exciting for me..  I would post pictures but not sure how from the phone..  

The boys are getting big..  Robbie has had another growth spurt and now he is nearly as tall as Kennen and I..   He wears a size 12 mens shoe..   He is doing well in school...  He almost has his star rank in scouts just waiting the time he has to..  

Sid is doing well at school also..  he loves to draw and does it well.. he loves scouts has hiswolf and his gold arrow point and 2 silver ones.. he cant wait to turn 9 to become a bear..  

Kennen is the new scoutmaster for the ward..  he is not as busy now so thats a plus.  last night he and Robbie went on a winter camp..  they said it was freezing...   Kennen is still working hard...  and cant seem to stop even when he is home.

as for myself..   busy with the boys and our activities.   need to be better at organizing our house..  maybe if I de-junked I would be better..  oh but where to start???

sending hugs to you all.  

WE WON!!!!!

Have you ever entered a drawing?  We have entered a lot and never have won a thing..   well....   Greiner Ford here in Casper had a drawing for a car...  It started on black Friday and you could enter once a day as they were giving away three cars...   So we went Friday and entered,  we went Saturday and entered...  Then Sunday after church we were going home to change clothes then go and enter for the Sunday drawing.  When we got home there was a message on the phone.  "Hi, this is Tom from Greiner Ford...  Holly you won the car in the drawing for Saturday.  Please call me back"  I screamed really loud the boys thought I had gone crazy...   I called him back, we went down to the Ford dealer to see what we had won...  We had won a Buick Century.  WOOT!!!  WOOT!!!    It was such a fun thing, and now I know that people really do win things.  :)     Thank you Greiner Ford!!!!

Happy Halloween!

I am so far behind it is a little sad...  So, sorry for those that read and follow my blog.  This year Halloween was perfect here.  We usually don't go out on the street as the weather is usually NASTY but this year it was lovely and we went up to Bar Nunn with some homeschool friends and went trick or treating.  I think this was the first year the boys have done the door to door trick or treating.  :)   It was a lot of fun!!!   

Happy 13th Birthday Robbie!!!!

Here are some pictures from Robbie's Birthday..  Sorry for it being so late..   He received a recurve bow and he spends lots of time out shooting..  he also got targets, arrows, arm guard, finger thing..  hehehe   We had a GREAT time with Gaga here.   I can't believe my baby is 13..  how time flies.  Love you!
