The surprise!

I almost forgot the biggest event/surprise in September. Lowell surprised me for my birthday with a weekend away in Park City with no kids. (All arrangements made) I was so surprised and excited to know that we could be together doing whatever we wanted and also to enjoy a meal with no interruptions.
We were to go over Labor Day weekend but it seems that I was so excited I got myself sick. No really, I started throwing up Friday morning and didn't really feel better until Sunday night. We were both were bummed. It was terrible. Lowell called the hotel, babysitter (Aunt Cristie) to see if we could arrange it for the next weekend. It all worked out and we went then.
Thanks to all because it was a blast but especially to my wonderful husband!

I know it has been AWHILE!

It is amazing to me how helpless you can feel when your computer breaks down and is not available. I finally got it back and would like to catch everyone up on the events that have occurred this September.
For Austin, flag football has started and is in full swing. He practices or plays a game 4 nights a week. He has enjoyed it even though they have only won one game so far. This league is a whole new experience for these boys. He also keeps me running with scouts and piano lessons.
Halle has started clogging and truly loves it. She also is involved in soccer. She has made 3 or 4 goals a game.
Thank goodness that Jett is not involved in any activities because I feel like this month has come and gone with how busy we have been.
I was just called to be in the Young Women's as the Laurel advisor. It is so fun to be around these young girls and think back to my dating years (oh how I wouldn't go back) but also keeps me going 1-2 nights a week.
Lowell is busy with work with his boss leaving and all the budget cuts from the state. It sure makes life interesting but we are thankful that we have a job in this economy.
So there it is in a nutshell. Life on the fast track. Somedays I think I know this is only the beginning of feeling like the taxi driver but at the same time I love it!
