Signs of Life..

I really, really miss my blog..

I don't have a good reason for the drought in my posting..

I have stuff to talk about..

But ~ I don't feel like downloading any pictures..

Yet I want to prove I haven't forgotten my blog all the same..


So how's your summer thus far??

Good. Good.

Ours has been crazy busy..

Here is what's going on:

We didn't go on a beginning of summer trip for the first time in a long time.. Too much going on so far.. Hopefully we'll have time to go somewhere before summer slips away..

Savannah & Adi are practicing a minimum of 2 hours a day for their performance in the upcoming Stadium of Fire.. We're really excited to see these gals in the show.. Granted, there are about 600 girls performing, but we lucked out this year and our studio is right up by the stage, in fact, Adi will be on the stage! How cool is that?? She is considered a "Junior" dancer, but some of this group will be on stage. Savannah is a "Main" dancer. She was also supposed to be a Junior {technically ages 8-12} but because of her height, she was moved up to "Main". In our true procrastinating fashion we waited until Saturday to get our tickets {we'll call it the spendy route} ~ but in our defense, I wanted to get as close to the girls as we can so we can {hopefully} get some pictures, and be able to tell they're our kids! We {mostly meaning me} are really not looking forward to the final practices next week at BYU.. Because Adi is on the stage she has a practice Wednesday from 7:30-11pm, then stage and Main dancers have a practice Thursday 5:30-11pm, and then the real kicker, Friday from 6:30am-11pm {with 2 breaks for lunch & dinner} Then the actual performance is on Saturday, but not without a practice that morning 6:30am-noon. I know, you're jealous.. I am one of the mom helpers for the Friday practice, so here's hoping none of us ends up with heat stroke..

On top of all that^^ Savannah has also been to Beehive camp for 4 days, and is currently at Young Women's camp.. I'm really not ready for my little girls to be this old already. ::sniff:: Adi has also been taking swimming lessons again. She is a great swimmer, I really love the place we have taken them for years, and she is currently in a private lesson just to really perfect her skills!

Chelsea is actually busy.. {I'll give you all a moment to take that in, and possibly pick yourself up off the floor in case you fainted} She has her last final tomorrow for Spring Block, and will begin Summer Block on Monday.. On top of that, she's already registered for Fall semester.. For those of you who know our procrastinatey-ness ~ be duly impressed. On top of school Miss Chelsea also has a job. She is working at a couple of SnoShacks in town. It has been a great Chelsea job so far, and she's making money and fantastic tips!

I have a couple of big projects I'm really wanting to finish before school starts again {which is sadly feeling too close} I somehow manage to find other little projects to do, or worse, still love to randomly leave with the girls in search of something fun to do, or for a yummy treat..

Davy has been ridiculously busy with the whole 1800Contacts/WalMart business. We sometimes feel like he is traveling, but ironically he hasn't been on a work trip since April..

Wow.. That wasn't how I envisioned this post, and I'm sure it was a yawner to read {sorry about that}

One of these days I'll load some photos and liven this place up..
