has it really been a year?

Goodness gracious me. I got on today and realized it has been 11 months since I have blogged, which is really stinkin pathetic. I read other people's blogs every day, but don't take the time to update mine. Maybe I get depressed at looking at all the cute artsy fartsy stuff everyone else does..I really don't know. Many things have transpired this past 11 months. 1. the kids all passed school, WAHOO!! Now Beau is a senior?!?!?! Morgan is in 8th and Brett is in 3rd. Makenzie is currently employed and going to get her cna and retake classes to raise her GPA. Another WAHOO!!! We had a wonderful couple come into our lives and adopt our grandson. His name is Nolan Blake Smith and is the most adorable baby ever. Makenzie made a totally unselfish choice to let him be raised by Ashlee and Collin, who actually blessed him and took him to the temple today. A 3rd WAHOO!! We couldn't be happier for them. We are hopefully in the last week of selling our house of 15 years. Who would have thought we would ever leave? Not me. I am trying to tell myself it will be good and no house payment will be awesome. We are still on pins and needles waiting for the appraisal to come through. We will know more on Monday.
I am a guest blogger on Ashlee's blog myspoiledeggs.blogpot.com. I just wrote about my side of the pregnancy and adoption. I am still a Grandma, just a little differently.
Jeff has been off all this week and just resting. He sure has needed it. The kids have been hoeing beets and will have enough $$ to pay for their own school clothes. WAHOO a 4th time. Fair is fast approaching and the turkeys are more than ready to go...and I am ready for them to be gone. More to come...maybe I will find some cute craft to post, who knows.
