I ran the kids projects to school this morning and did my usual cleaning and now i am all done for the day and it is only 9:40am. Now what do i do???? maybe i will just relax and read a book or take a nap. The kids get home early today. and the girls want me to color their hair again. Kiana said the dark did not stay in long enough and she wants it lighter on top. We will see how that turns out. Wish me luck. It was kinda cold outside i hope it warms up soon.
I think tomorrow Tag will take myriam and the girls snowboarding they are excited. I really wish i knew that my knee would hold up cause i would really like to try it. But it scares me to death. I really don't want to be hauled off the hill on a stretcher.... That would not be funny at all. I don't know i guess we will see if i feel up to it tomorrow.

Happy Birthday !!
Happy birthday Steven... You know i should really know how old he turning but i am not sure. I am going to guess he is turning 27 or 28. Anyways i hope he has a great day.
I had a great day with Myriam and Zain. We were at the mall all day shopping. And we had lunch at panda express. The chicken was yummy. I finally found some shirts for the girls so we can do family pictures. I have bought to differnt shirts now and they end up not liking them when we get home. Even after they pick them out.
Tonight i am ready for bed.

Great Day !!

This is keagen's family tree i did for him.

This is kya's underground railroad poster board that we did. well she gather some of the information i put it all together and made the board.

This is the flag that i made for graysens project. I went to the school and took a picture of it.
Ok i have not been here in a couple of days. I have been very busy....
First Tags family was here til Sunday. and then i had to get going on the rest of the kids CORE projects... I finished Keagens today and i just finished McKya's. And if i do say so myself they look good. Oh ya I finished Graysens last week before company came.

Zain Myraim and the may family at Golden Corral
Tonight Tag and the kids and I went to dinner with Myraim and Zain...and Stephanie and her three kids. I am sorry i just forgot one of the boys names so it is easier not to put any names.

Me Myriam and Stephanie They look great... I am really hoping to be as skinny as them again some day.
It was so nice to see them again... We really did miss them. I have to say it makes me so sad to think that i am not the one helping them at this time. But they have a great Surro. And i pray that everything works for them. They deserve to have a beautiful baby of their own. They would make wonderful parents.

They brought us some gifts. First they gave me a Traditional wrap from Tunisia and a family picture from when they were here last time. In the picture i really looked terrible. For some reason my eyes are always closed. but everyone else looked great. and then they gave the family some chocolates. Which i had to hide from Tag..
they are the most amazing people ever. I wish they lived closer. It sounds like they want to go skiing on Thursday that will be a lot of fun. Zain and i will stay in the lodge and Tag, Myriam and the girls will go snow boarding.
ok i am off to bed early tonight. i took some pictures i will try to post them tomorrow. i still need to post the ones from the other day.
I forgot to add that kya baby sat Kenzie on saturday. She was so excited to beable to watch her. and she did a great job. Tag and i took Kooper with us to the baskeball game. he did great to. He is so funny i love to listen to him talk. He does not like storms....

Family is here.
I got the the kids off to school and then i ran to the store and got some stuff to make dinner tonight.
Tag's family will be here for the Dubois Basketball games. the game starts at 3pm. Three out of the four kids went with us. Graysen decided that he would rather stay at school and play with his friends after school. So he went to drews house while we were gone.
Dubois played Richlfield and it was not a great turn out. they lost. they play again tomorrow at 6:15 pm.
It has been fun having family here. It is nice to be able to sit and visit and laugh. We are all off to bed now.

They are here!!!!!!! Spring cleaning.....
Today i started some spring cleaning. i got quit a bit done. these last couple of weeks i have been going through clothes and getting rid of the ones we don't wear or don't fit. so this week i decided to hit drawers and the other closets.
I discovered even though kya is pretty organized and keeps her room clean. That she is a pack rat and likes to put stuff in bags or her purses and put them in the corner of closets or on shelf's and forget about them. rather then putting the stuff away. I am not even sure how many bags i found full of odds and ends. i cleaned her room and put everything away in the right place.
Then i hit the kitchen junk drawer that was a chore in its self. I am not sure how it happens but things get put in there that do not belong there. and it seems once you start cleaning things you keep going and end up doing something else to. But it is nice when you are done.
Kiana thanked me for cleaning her closet out for her. Kya was way beyond excited that i organized fro her and she thanked me for that also. i guess the shelf under her overhead projector was really bugging her that it was a mess so that was so exciting for her to see things put away. It is nice to have someone do that for you when it overwhelms you enough that you don't want to do it. I am glad i could help.
The boys room is pretty much clean all the time. I pick it up everyday pretty much or they keep it picked up. but i did make there beds for them the right way. that made them happy. They make their own beds each day and sometimes i wonder if they even try. But at least they are learning that it is something that needs to be done everyday and you will feel better.
I like to know that my house is clean because you just never know who might show up. or you might have to go somewhere and it is nice to come home to a clean house. I like to keep up on it everyday that helps. I do my laundry everyday that way i don't get overwhelmed. with six people in the house it could happen quick...
Tonight Tag and I went to lances house it was his birthday 38. We visited and ate. and headed home around 9:30pm.
I got a wonderful phone call today.... Zain Called and told me that Myriam and himself are in town... How exciting. We have really missed them. I really wish they lived closer. And i have to say it really made me feel good to hear his voice. I knew that they would call but the day after they got here that makes it even better. They arrived last night at midnight. and i guess their luggage got lost..... Anyways they were a little tired so we will get to see them hopefully Saturday. Tomorrow Tags family will be here till Saturday. So we will be busy. But after that we will get to spend time with them. I am so excited... I pray that everything works for them this time around. It has to. I have to say i am a little sad that i am not the one doing it for them this time. But i know it is best. But i would in a heart beat I told tag that tonight i would do it again for them if they needed me to. They are such amazing people.

Front view

Back view
Tonight we signed the three younger kids up for baseball. they start in may and it looks like we are going to be very busy this summer.
I worked on graysen core project today and started keagens. And then we have to get going on kya's. Graysen's project is on the American Flag. Keagen is on the Family Tree. Kya is on the underground railway.
It rained here most of the day. but it was in the 50's.
Keagen got mad at me today and said he is leaving. It was 7:20am and he got his coat on and grab his backpack and headed out the door. I asked him are you going to ride the high school and middle school bus today or what? He said no i am getting far away from here.... Kiana went out to get on the bus and he was sitting on the power box down the road. Kiana asked him if he was going to get on the bus? He started laughing. He came home and bugged the rest of us til it was time to get on the bus at 8am. He didn't get enough sleep last night and boy did we pay for it today. I am also going to bed early tonight.
Myriam and Zein will be here tonight at midnight. They have an appointment tomorrow. I can't wait to see them.

Not very Happy At All....
Oh my goodness i am soooo mad right now.. I just got done watching the season finale of the bachelor. Jason is such a jerk. He really needs to be slapped. that was just not right what he did to Melissa.
It is funny kiana kept saying mom its just a show. Graysen said if it was him he would of slapped him... Tag is wondering how many people will call or e-mail the show about him. i hope they do he so deserves it.
This last weekend was kinda busy you could say.
Saturday Tag and i worked at Phills house. we got home around 7:30pm and we were lazy the rest of the night tired....
Sunday the normal went to church and came home and took a nap.
Monday i cleaned like usual. and at 10 am my visiting teachers came. I had kiana make me a sign to put by the door. No Shoes Please..... Last time it was raining and muddy and they wore there shoes in the house. I have a rule NO shoes in the house period.... I feel like it is disrespectful and rude if you wear your shoes in other peoples houses. But that's just my op ion.. Well the sign worked. the visit went good. and they left around 10:30. and then i had a meeting with Amy. Had her fill out a profile and i sent it off to kathleen. I think she will be great... We talked about the neighborhood and whats going on. nothing to exciting.
When the kids got home i helped with home work and then the girls and i decided it was time to head off to wal mart and get supplies for the Core projects. I got a poster board for keagen to put his family tree on and graysen a Styrofoam board to make a flag out of. kya is doing underground rail road. she is going to use the boys trains and tracks.
I talked to mom today her and ali were off doing errands and the weather was nice today there 75. here is was 50's but then we had a cold chill coming through. but it was sunny off and on.
