mid 2009

I cannot believe we are almost half way through 2009. 2 of my kids will be out of school next week and the other 2 a week after that. Just like everyone else with kids in school, May is a jammed packed month full of activities. I am lucky in the fact that alot of my kids are not involved in a ton of school clubs right now and not one of them has any kind of graduation. So I am sure it could be worse than it is with the little bit we do have.

Tomorrow is our Taylor Swift concert. We are getting so excited to finally get to go. I am still having camera issues so I am hoping to borrow one of my kids camera's for tomorrow night.

Thayne is coming home on Friday and that is always the best part of my week. He is home for the long Memorial Day weekend. He needs the break so bad even if he thinks he doesn't. He has been working so many hours and doesn't take breaks very often. I just hope he doesn't try working in the yard the whole time, he loves being in the yard working and I think this weekend we are going to have some family time.

The cell phone thing is still a thing in our house. My kids just don't know what to do with themselves without them. Detox can be a good thing I think. The kids think we are the meanest parents ever and our rules are way to strict. I am totally convinced that they will survive and they will not have any long lasting permanent effects from it.

Thayne has been saying for a few years now that 2009 would be a good year for us and I will say that sitting her mid 2009, this is a good year, and I only see it getting better.
