the last few weeks

The last few weeks have gone by quite fast. I have been busy with packing and all the moving stuff. Last weekend we drove our car to Rexburg and left it at a friends so that my family can pick it up there and drive it back to Medford for us. While there we went to the Titanic exhibit. Which I have really wanted to go to. I find the story so fascinating. It was a great exhibit and Kaylie loved it. She even played titanic at recess yesterday and got so mad when one of the boys wanted to use there ship for his army. She had to explain to him that it is not for the army, it was a big ship that wrecked and lots of people died. It was funny when she explained it. All of you who have heard Kaylie tells stories can probably just picture her explaining this to this kid. She is a great story teller.
Some other funny things that have happened.
Marissa had informed us that when she grows up she is going to be a "lion". I am not sure how that is possible but that is what she wants to be. I do think that she is loud enough to be one.

We took our table up the the woods last night and burned it. We were really in need of getting a new one and so we cut this one up. When Brett turned on the chain saw Marissa started freaking out and crying, She did not want us to do this to the table. I tried to explain to her that we are going to buy a new one and she still was very upset. But when I told her she could come with me to pick out a pretty table then she settle down. Poor thing, she was so confused. maybe she thought that she no longer gets to eat.

The other funny thing that happened. My good friend keri went to get her hair done at the salon. I aid to Brett infront of the girls that I wanted to go see Keri's hair. They asked what happened so I told them that Dave (keri's husband) accidentally caught her hair on fire and she had to get it cut really short like a boys hair. They were very distraught about this. Discussing amongst themselves how she could wear hats and get a wig. Then when Sophie said family prayer last night, she was so kind as to ask that Keri's hair would grow. I had to call Keri after that and she got a kick out of it.
i will really miss when my kids grow up. Already I am having a hard time realizing that brett and I are done and will have no more babies. Sure no more diapers, bottles, and getting up allot at tonight. But no more tiny little hands and ears and toes. Soft little hair. Ok if Brett said that he wanted another so would I but I know that we are done. But anywho, It is sad to see your kids grow up, and into the more serious stage. I think that I want them to stop growing and just stay little forever. At least Marissa is still tiny.

Ok now today I have to call our the utilities, and start to pack up the rest of the stuff. My gaol: have everything packed bu Thursday. I could get it all done today, but I still might need some stuff. I hope that I don't run out of boxes. When we moved here, we burnt a bunch and I have not replaced any of those ones, so hopefully we will be ok.

Been Busy

Sorry I have been neglecting ya'all with my blog. We have been busy the last few days enjoying the nice warm weather.

Over spring break we went back to Oregon. We brought some of our stuff back to our house there. We built Brownie a kennel and did a few other things that needed to be done. We were able to be there when my Mom had her surgery, which I was so happy about. Things went well and she is doing great. She got her drain out yesterday. She was getting really annoyed with it. She had a little straw hanging out her nose. We told all the kids that all she had to do was put her nose in a cup and suck in. They were so confused. We also got to be there for Brenden's baptism. My brother Josh baptised him. Can I just say that I don't like how they do the stake baptism things. I am glad that we will have our own font for Kaylie's.

We also went to the beach and I will put some pictures up.
I also am gonna put some family pictures up that Keri took for us. This is the view from our park. We will miss the beauty of this country. WE will miss our friends that we have made and our branch family. We will also miss the pace that this small town brings, the small school for our girls, the animals that are all around us and I won't miss the cold and the snow.

Our Move

Well it is now official. We are moving back to our house in White City. There are numerous reasons why and we will miss our friends that we have made here. The main reason is that our house hasn't sold and with the housing market it won't for a while. I also am not liking this cold weather. When we went and visited last week in Oregon it was 70 degrees. It was wonderful.
Brett got a great job offer in Eagle Point, so any of you looking for a doctor Brett will start the second week of May.
