Update for August 30-Sept 5

Well, I still don't know what is happening with my computer. I have tried three different memory cards and none of them will import so I don't think there is anything wrong with the cards. I also went to Wal-mart and put all the pics from my memory card onto a cd so I could upload my pics that way, but when I put the cd in the computer, it doesn't let me import from the cd either. It's got to be something in my memory card reader. Hopefully I can get it taken care of soon.

Braquel has been working weekends again. She is really glad that school's back in and she doesn't have to work everyday anymore. The money isn't so great, but at least she has a little time for herself now. She is getting ready to have her senior pictures taken so she is busy putting outfits and jewelry together. We went to town the other day and I told her I would buy her something for her pics, but she said she wanted to wait until she knew exactly what she still needed. She's such a smart girl and so good with money....must get that from her mom!!!

Mikayla made the freshmen volleyball team in Declo and is very busy with that. She has to be at practice every day at 6:00 in the morning. They were supposed to have two games this week, but Tuesday nights game was cancelled due to double booking on Aberdeen's part. I took the night off to go watch, but instead we had a nice dinner and sat on the deck enjoying the evening. I forgot how nice it is to be home during the evenings!

Chelsey signed up for Honors Geography. Along with the regular classroom work, she has to do some extra projuects. Should be great fun! She also tried out for and made the Yearbook staff at the jr. high. I'm really excited that one of my kids finally followed in her mom's footsteps and went into annual staff. I loved it in high school and I think she will like it too since she likes to take pictures.

Treven is having a rough couple of weeks. He is not used to getting up so early for school and somedays I have a terrible time getting him out of bed and into the tub. He had back to school night on Thursday and they learned some new songs for the cook that retired and the teachers aide that moved away this summer. He dressed up in a button-down shirt and his black slacks- what a handsome guy he was!

Ellie turned six months old today. She also is rolling front-to-back and back-to-front like there is no tomorrow. She rolls until she can't go anywhere else and then she gets so frustrated. She's also doing pretty well at sitting up- she tips sideways a bit still, though. She came down with a cold last night so she was pretty miserable. This is really her first bout with a cold and she's not too sure what is happening to her.

I did a couple of scrapbook pages last Sunday for the retreat challenges and I did one more layour yesterday. Today, my neighbors and I froze corn. We had quite the assembly line going! There wasn't a whole lot of corn ready, so when we do it again in a week or two, I will take some pictures and post them...if this stupid thing gets fixed!

Have a great week!
