the toilet paper posse

tonight my boys seemed to be doing so good.. just watching the chipmunks in their bedroom and just relaxing..
notice how I say seemed... well El got up to check on them and then all the crazy giggles and running around started.. this is what I found...

AHHH.. BOYS!!

Don't let this innocent look full you!

attempting to clean up the mess

I like to call this one "toilet paper super man"

ARGH!!!

So on August 25th Murray City decided that because we had two water main breaks during the winter, they needed to replace all of the main water lines! NO PROBLEM right?? Well I didn't think so.. But our road is still torn up, we have new water lines, new gutter & driveway entries and we are supposed to have our road repaved this week..
The reason for the ARGH is, it has been a long time!! We can't park on our street, or pull in our driveway.. It is just a pain..
I guess I have to look at the bright side and realize that it is "supposed" to be complete by the end of the week.. That is what the construction guys tell me.. But what it reminds me of, is the movie the "MONEY PIT".. if you haven't seen it, please do..it is old, but funny.. The owners of the house keep asking "how much longer", and the workers keep saying "two weeks".... But in our case they keep saying one week..
We will see how it goes!!!

First day of Fall

This morning, I awoke to Morgan singing, "Hooray, its the first day of fall" over and over again...
My question to her was, Morg why are you so happy for fall? Her response, because my birthday is coming up! DUHHH!!
I love fall.. I love the smell, the coolness of the air and Halloween.. And, I love that Morgan and Kylah will be a year older, and that will make me feel much older!!
