Sammie's School Play "UTAH!"

Sammie has been studying Utah history in school this year. She performed in the 4th grade play Utah. Sammie has been looking forward to performing in this play ever since she was in 1st grade.


She played the part of a Spanish Explorer and a Mormon Pioneer. She did so awesome! She smiled all the time and did all the actions to the songs just right and sang so well. I am so proud of you Sammie.

Grandma Hancey made the bonnett and apron for her pioneer costume. Gma & Gpa Hancey even came up to see her perform! It was so great of them. Thank you.

Stuff & Things

Has it really been that long since I posted???? Whew, time flies! Every minute felt like a day when I was pregnant and now time is just zipping by. SLOW DOWN!!!

Well I'll start with the latest and go backwards.

Dillon, J.W.'s youngest brother, is living with us. He is a pretty nice kid so it is not as bad as I was expecting it to be.

Sammie is working really hard and anxious about her upcoming school play, "Utah"

Felicity turned 3 and is the funniest thing ever. I will post some pictures of her.

Luke was blessed. J.W. gave him a beautiful blessing and most of my family was here and it was wonderful! We had a really nice day. I will post some pics too.

I started working again. I work Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I don't know how I ended up working 3 evenings, oh yes, I said yes at different times and then realized it was 3 nights a week! It sounds worse than it is because 2 of the days are only for 1 hour but I teach so add another hour for lesson prep.

I haven't lost the prego weight yet. It really ticks me off. I am going to the gym but it is not working yet. I have a session with a trainer tomorrow so we will see how that goes. I hate that so many of the girls around me have kids and then 2 weeks later are back in their size 2 jeans!!!! I can never be friends with them. Just kidding. Sort of.

Life is good! I have the most fantastic hubby in the world and he is so good about helping out with the kids and treating me nice. I just have to remember not to wake him at night or he is up and will not go back to sleep. Last night I asked him to get Luke at 4 am after getting up with him every hour and then he never went back to sleep.

J.W. is obsessed with his latest project. He wants to put mantles around the see-through fireplace and build cabinets on the side and an entertainment type center for the top for a TV to sit on. He is completely obsessing about it. He looks at sites online for hours and hours to find the wood and is thinking up plans over and over on how to build it. It is consuming him!!! I am not complaining though, I know he will end up with a fantastic result. He is amazing at what he can create. I just love the quirkiness about him dreaming up the plans forever and ever and ever. He's the best.
