I Am Getting Old

Alexa was calling a friend the other day. She said "mom something is wrong with the phone."
I told her to hang up and try again. Once again she said "the phone is making a funny noise." I took the phone from her and realized she was getting a busy tone. I said " Alexa the phone is just busy." She said " whats busy." I started to laugh and realized my daugter had no idea what it meant when a phone was busy and she was only use to a world filled with call waiting. Oh I am getting old....

Sammy I love ya!

This was so cute that I had to put it on my blog. When my sister came and stayed with me, her daughter Sam was such a help with Blake. When we were getting out of the car one day, she had been so helpful I said"Sam why don't you come live with Aunt Leslie you are so helpful." She replied " Aunt Leslie I clean too." I seriously laughed so hard. A few days later I was cooking in the kitchen she came in and said " I cook too." Sam I'll adopt you any time!

It's Already March!

This month has been crazy. Both the boys started baseball, Chance had blue and gold dinner, Alexa had New Begginings( which I was in charge of), my sister came and stayed a week, and Dane had a performance at school. I am sure I am missing the other hundreds of things we did.
All I can say is Trace and I are so busy. Busy making sure we give our kids opportunities, busy making sure our kids make good choices, busy driving kids to activities, busy making sure they pull the weeds (cause every kid has to pull weeds), busy making sure they get homework done, busy teaching our children about the gospel, busy making sure they know we love them! This all leads to parents who are exhausted but would not have it any other way!

Alexa and Blake at new beginnings.

We are so luck to have Grams and Grandad close by. They get to share in all of our kids wonderful accomplishments. We love them!

Alexa was introduced at new beginnings for young women. I can not believe she is twelve. Time goes by so fast.

Ashlee and her family came to visit for the week and we all went to Disneyland. I loved having my sister stay with me. Sisters are awesome and I love mine both so much!

Chance's Blue and Gold dinner for cub scouts. We made a flag cake or should I say Alexa, Dane and I made a flag cake. Where was Chance? Playing baseball with his dad.

Dane at his Presidents Celebration at school. He was George Washington. Dane hates to sing, so most of the time was spent just smiling on stage.
