Watch Out...Virgin Blogger

Okay, so my sister talked me into starting a blog. This is not my thing. I explained to her that I'm not funny and my life is boring so why would people want to see this? Also ignore any bad punctuation (mom). So here is what my first and probably most blogs will sound like...today I woke up, fed kids, worked, took Ty to school, put Kaycie down for a nap, worked some more, made dinner, worked some more, put kids to bed and finally worked some more. Nice I know. Actually, today we picked up a kitchen set I bought on ebay for Kaycie. Definitely the most exciting part of this day. Is this what blogging is supposed to be like?

In all seriousness, our family does have some exciting stuff going on. We currently live in Buckeye, AZ. Where is that you say? If you're familiar with the vastness that is now the Phoenix area, we are the very last town you'll pass west on your way to California. Scott is in the process of building his own dental practice in the west valley (phx, az). It's called Estrella Mountain Dentistry. The logo is done and the architectural drawings are done. Next is bids from contractors. I'm actually really excited to decorate his digs. It cannot come too soon for him either. That also means a light at the end of the tunnel for me. 10 years of doing what I do has me burned out. Graphic design is great and all but the multiple deadlines + kids = many levels of stress.

Ty is in preschool right now since he barely missed the kindergarten cut-off this year. He loves it. He has a little group of buddies that he looks forward to seeing. Kaycie is jealous and wants to go to school too. I'm serving in the Young Women's group in our ward as Laurel Advisor. This is my lifelong calling. In the 9 wards we've been in, I've served in the YW in 5 wards and been Laurel advisor 4 times. The other calllings I've had are primary. I'm just not meant to know people my age. Scott is also again serving in his lifelong calling...the Young Men's organization. His is the same story as mine except he's actually had to serve as president a few times. Not me. Phew.

Well that should catch you all up. Thanks for visiting!

Cheryl I thought the same thing about having to have something exciting to put up but after a few times I realized it didn't matter! It is fun to just post whatever and have people comment and find new blogs to look at etc. I am so excited to read yours and put in on my growing list of friend blogs!! Hurray! check out mine and Carlos blog when you have time :)
