Congrats Taxinators!

So Evan's x-tax team won Friday night! I am so proud of Ev and all of his hard work. He not only had this competition this week, he had a big test in one of his classes and was sick (see previous post). Not to brag, but I think he is the brightest guy ever. Keep up the good work duder! We find out in a few weeks if they were selected to compete in the national competition in Washington DC. Only 5 schools in the nation are picked to compete. If they do go the school only pays for Evan to go, so here is my genius idea so I can go...a bake sale!

Better health to come

So Evan was sick the past couple of days. So it wasn't to unexpected when I started to not feel well. We learned this past weekend that Ev is a stronger soldier than I. I woke up around 11:30 Friday night and couldn't move off of the couch for almost 20 hours. Thanks Evan for putting up with my complaining and running to the store about 20 times to pick me up stuff that I thought would make me feel better. This has been my bed and 'buddy' for the weekend.



I am proud to say that I am feeling better now and was able to shower this morning and go to church. I always feel better when I can go to church and hug my hubby standing up.

Parents, Potatoes, and a Piano

Two weekends ago I went down to California to see my parents and visit my family. I flew out Friday morning on the cheapest flight in the world! Thank you Jet Blue for being awesome. My bro Devo picked me up from the airport and on the way home we stopped to look at the pirate ship in the San Diego Harbor. Friday night was also my cousin's wedding. Congrats Wayne and Brianne. The wedding was really pretty and it was so nice to see so much of my extended family.

While I was gone, Evan was able to see his parents on their way down to Vegas for his cousins wedding. We had a full house; Ev's parents, two sisters, a brother, and a girlfriend were all jam packed in our tiny apartment. So now to the potatoes and piano. Since Evan is from potato country, his parent's brought down a huge box, I would guess 20 pounds, of potatoes. So I will be making lots of freezer meals with potatoes. They also brought a piano down so we can play and I can re-learn.

Thanks for being great parents, all four of you! Love you guys.
