HOLY S**T!!!

Okay, so I get a call from Bo around 6:30 p.m. or so and he tells me that he has been in an accident and he is pretty sure the car is totaled. I say, okay, where are you. He tells me where he is, I get dad and we rush over to where he is. This is what we found when we arrived . . . .



I was stunned and Bo was in shock. He was on his way home and was coming down a small hill and got over for a utility truck. They just re-chipped this part of the road and the gravel is very deep. Well, when he went to get back on the road the rear end of the car fish-tailed through the gravel and he ended up running up an embankment, flipped 180 degrees, and landed on an EMPTY propane tank. How grateful we were that that tank was empty and not full. I was very nervous about him, but he continues to assure me that he is just fine. Although, he keeps telling me that he feels stupid, and I keep telling him that he is not stupid and it can happen to anyone of us and it is a blessing that he is just fine and that no one else, especially one of the girls was not with him at the time. We will definitely thank the big guy upstairs for all of our many blessings tonight!

1st Week of Soccer

So, Saturday was our first official week of soccer. Things went well and we received several compliments as to how much the parents enjoyed the way that we have set it up. Hopefully, it will continue to progress and we will have even more kids out next year!
Both Lizzy and Mikki did very well. Mikki just kind-of ran around the field and smiled! Lizzy was awesome. She scored several goals and was very excited!!! She has shown a lot of progression just since last year! No pictures yet. I will have to try and figure out to post them using dad's computer!
Well, things are going good here. Bo likes his job and I am still busy being home with the kids and running all sorts of errands!!!!
Hope all is well!
Love to all!

Ahhhh, Soccer!

Okay, so since moving back to Idaho and our little town, Bo and I expressed our interest in helping with soccer. We said we would help coach if they needed. Well, the City Secretary just happens to be Brylee's pre-school teacher. So we talked to her and told her the same, we were interested and wanted to know if they were going to do soccer this year. She said yes, she was just slow getting the flyers out to parents and kids. Well, the flyers went out on a Monday and by Wednesday, Bo and I found out that . . . . . . WE ARE IN CHARGE OF THE WHOLE PROGRAM!!! AAAAAHHHHHHHH! So this past week I have been puting teams together, trying to find coaches, ordering equipment, etc. We had our first coaches meeting last night and I think things went ok. Hopefully the kids will have fun and next year we will have a better turn out! Well, wish Bo and I luck in running the program. I guess if we bomb, they won't ask us to do it again!!! :)

Preschool :(

Okay, so Wednesday was Brylee's first day of Pre-school. She has been soo excited and that was all she talked about for weeks in her big sisters got to go to school and she didn't. So, the big day finally arrived. She was up and dressed all by herself before I knew it. We headed into pre-school. When we got there I noticed that she got a little nervous. I read her a couple of books and then talked to the teacher for a few minutes. Well, on my way out the door I stopped to tell her bye and that I would see her in a couple of hours, well, she was sobbing. :( I comforted her and then for the next 30 minutes she wouldn't leave my side. Everytime I got up to move she grabbed me and said, "Don't leave me mommy." Doesn't that just break your heart. Well, I told myself I had to go or the next time she went she would want me to stay again. So, I got up the courage, her teacher got her entertained and I snuck out. Well, as I was driving by I seen on of the helpers pick her up and walk back to kitchen area with her. I cried the whole way back to mom and dad's! My baby is such a big girl and going to pre-school already. When I went back to get her, she was fine. Her teacher said that she had a shadow most of the day, but she did quit crying! Hopefully when she goes on Monday, she and I will both do a little better!
