So little time . . .

I have so much to do and so little time to do it in! I am so sorry I haven't posted for soooo long. My family was here for a week and a half, and I don't think I got online once while they were here. It was so busy and fun, and I am just barely recovering from all the excitement! It was funny too because on Friday after my parents left Kira (my sister-in-law) and her sister, Megan, showed up. It was a total surprise! I still cannot believe she did that.
So, needless to say, between Wes' parents visit a few weeks ago and my family's visit, I haven't had much time to blog. I got a CD from Wes' parents with a bunch more cute pictures from their visit, and I have about 300 pictures to go through from the past two weeks.
Well, so, ummm . . as far as TIME goes, I don't really have any. For right now, you can look at my sister, Cristi's, blog. She is amazing and always on top of anything having to do with pictures. She has a bunch of the cutest pictures from their visit out on her blog. Her link is here on my blog.
We had so much fun with my family. We went to the beach and swimming at the hotel and to fun parks and to the aquarium.
I have so many thing I want to write about. Bradley is starting preschool in a couple weeks, and I am having all sorts of mixed emotions about that. Connor has learned his ABC's. He loves to sing the song to us.
Oh, I have the funniest story about Connor. Usually when I take a shower I let the boys watch TV or a movie or something. The past few weeks Connor has been telling me, rather frequently, that I stink. :) He'll come up to me and say, "Mommy, you stink," and then promplty after say, "Can I watch a movie?" It's so funny. I guess it doesn't sound as funny on here, but it is. He knows that me being stinky means I need a shower which means he gets to watch TV. He is so hilarious.
Halley is growing so fast! I cannot beleive she is 3 1/2 months old already. Her favorite thing to do is watch people's faces. She is especially fascinated by the boys.
Wes is doing really well in his classes. He has been getting up early to study a lot, and he studies during his breaks too. Chinese is a hard language!
I am having so much fun out here. It is hard to adjust to the fact that we won't have family out here again for awhile, but it's all good. We went to a bar-b-que at a friend from the ward's house on Monday, and we have one planned at our house this Saturday with all of Wes' friends from when he first got here. Oh, and on Sunday we are having dinner with a family that is from Utah. Marc is in the Utah National Guard too. He is here learning Russian. Wes met him in his unit before he left for basic.
Yikes! So, sorry, not many pictures. GO TO CRISTI'S BLOG! :) I promise I will keep working on everying and post more soon. Soon, of course, could mean in the next few weeks, but I will get on it!
I think I'll just post a couple cute pictures from the aquarium since Cristi wasn't here then, and she posted a lot of the other cute ones. :)
Goodnight! (Sorry this is soooo long.)

Are you using me for my blog? That story about Connor is WAY funny! He's a smart kid....I miss them so much already!

Yes, of course I am using you for your blog! Would it be ok if you just printed double copies of your scrapbook for me too? he he he . . . :)

you seriously can have any of the pages you want that I've scrapbooked. you just have to tell me which ones you want. I print them for $3 a page at costco but you can get them printed for as cheap as a $1 a page and that is through the internet so you'd have to pay shipping too...it is usually $6 but if you order a bunch at once then it doesn't matter. it would probably be the same price for you to get the pictures printed and pay for the paper. so just let me know which ones you want!

Trish, I know this is weird, but do you have Danyelle's phone number? I haven't heard from her and I'm a little worried. If so, can you email it to me at stampinashley@gmail.com

Thanks.
