The Latest

Sometimes I feel like my life is running away from me. I get to the end of the day, thankful that it's over because I'm exhausted, but also wondering what I did that made me so busy during the day that I can't even remember what I did or if I accomplished anything. Yet I feel like nothing ever gets done. I still have all my uncompeted projects that I never seem to have time for. And I never feel like I do enough with the kids. Is life supposed to be like this??


Anyways, Here's the latest. Our PTO election ended last week and I lost. However, Katie won the position of President and the others we were hoping would get voted in won as well.

Rhett and I spent last weekend in Santa Fe for his boss' wedding. We dropped the kids off at the neighbors (thanks Giras'!!!) and went up Friday for the wedding the evening, then stayed the night and toured around the various churches, art galleries, and places Saturday. That night Rhett's boss and new wife invited everyone to a dinner where we ate great food while the waiters and waitresses sang us show tunes! It was a wonderful evening.

Porter and especially Zach spend all of their free time with their Legos. They build cars, spaceships, airplanes and Transformers (transforming Transformers). Their creations are so cool - cooler than anything you'd find on any instructions. Rhett and I are always amazed at what they come up with.

The other night the boys were playing in the family room while I took pictures. Porter wanted his picture taken with this pose:

Then it was Andrew's turn:

And Zach had his own:

There is always so much going on in your house... looks like fun. The boys are starting to look so much older!

I feel the same way you feel Stephanie. I never let myself be content with the things I've done for the children, nor the progress I've made on my projects. It extends to every area of my life . . . keeps me busy! I admire you from an onlookers perspective though, so don't be too hard on yourself; you do better than you think you do!
