Can you say CRAZY!

I'm really starting to feel the stress of moving and mostly of buying a new house.  We are finding out the hard way that you just can't live anywhere in a bigger city.  Our dollar doesn't go as far as we want it to in  Cheyenne.  There are lots of new houses that we can afford, but if we can afford them all the riffraff can to.   We put our trust in the Lord that he will lead us to where we are suppose to be.

You What?

Last week Doug and I drove to Cheyenne for a job interview.  It is very competitive in the job market and we where not excepting much.  Just glad to get an interview.  Yesterday Cheyenne called and offered the job to Doug.  We are so shocked!  Of coarse we are so sad to leave our mountain town.  Cole and Kam are trying to figure out a way to stay to the end of football season.  School in Cheyenne started yesterday so we are in the same situation we where in last year.  Start school early and go until June.
The boys have a game 50 miles north of Casper so we will go to the game and then head to Cheyenne for a long weekend.  Try to find a house and go to church there.
Everything is going to happen fast.  Doug starts he new job September 1st but doesn't have to report until we are moved down there.  Wish us luck on the house hunt.

update

 Doug's parents came to town on Thursday,  Grandpa and Doug got in some good fishing.
I still haven't taken pictures of my high school kids.  Kameron was cleared to play football on friday.  His first practice it today.  We hope everything goes well.  We saw our first 6 man football on saturday.  It is alot different then we are used to.  Lots of touchdowns,  Cole got a little playing time and he did a good job.  We are busy with school things, everyone is in a sport.  Ren and Wes are playing soccer, Wyatt, Cole and Kam are in football.  It is going to be a busy month.
I'm staying busy working for Ida and volunteering at the school, run forgotten things to kids.  You know all the regular thing a stay at home mom does.
There is a cold in the air,it was in the high 30's this weekend.  So sad to see our summer fading away.

Kam's home kind of

We picked up Kameron yesterday afternoon.  He really enjoyed flying, he slept the whole flight so he must of been comfortable.
He is out early this morning getting all the things he need to get done before school start tomorrow.  We haven't seen him all day, but we are happy to have him home.

update

My camera cord is M.I.A.  so no pictures.

Anyway, we are excited for school to start on Wednesday.  Wyatt went to the dr on Thursday and he was cleared nothing wrong with him.  Friday Arron and Jeanine came to town to pick up Ethan.  It was fun to have him with us this week.  Saturday was full on house and yard work.  Sunday we had 3 sets of missionaries over, and enjoyed the afternoon with them.  We had a missionary fireside and one of  the people I invited came.  It was a good experience for our family.  The boys where very interested in how things went.
 Today is an other busy day, we pick up Kam in  Riverton at the airport.  Wyatt has his first practice to night.  The boys have an open house for school.  It will be nice to start school just to get things to slow down.  Let it is a nice thought anyway.
We are headed to Cheyenne for a quick trip, leave on Thursday come home on Thursday.  Cole and Kam's first football game is on Saturday afternoon in Lander.  It is going to be a crazy week.

Busy day

The day started very busy.  Cole had practice at 6:30.  He get home at 7 tonight.  We started dentist appointments at 8.  Wyatt had a physical at 8:15.  He wasn't cleared to play he has to see a specialist on Thursday   He might have a hernia.  He is excited to start football on Monday.   Figures another surgery,  I almost have Kameron's paid off.   We have a few more things to do today.  I need to get the kids school bags ready and clean, clean, clean.

look what came to church today


 I thought Josh would like to see a little competition with his bus.
this was a long load!

Cole had a birthday

 Cole turned 15 on sunday,  he is busy today with all day football practice.


 He got new cleats and a lunch cooler for all those long trips

The thing he like the best.  Slushy magic!!  I thought Cole would be more excited to get his permit.  He has lots of reading to do for school and had put the permit on the back burner for now.

Fishing with Ida














the boys and I took Ida fishing on friday,  all in all it was quiet a success.  She caught a fish and got out of her house.
