I know I know....

I haven't blogged for a while, okay for about a month. I tell ya sometimes life is so crazy busy that we don't have time to update. Here I go again. I have to tell you all about the last month, and everything that has happened.
First I want to say that Jaycee is doing so well in her Tae Kwon Do class, she is advancing and picking up on the moves so fast. Its amazing to see how far she comes every time she has class. She has also been off for a month and I tell ya she has enjoyed every moment of not going to school. She doesn't want to go back, aww sad. I reminded her that she has to go all the way to 12th grade. Her reaction was "I'm going to die, that is too long and I don't think I can handle it". I just started laughing and by the way she didn't think it was funny that I was laughing. Well its life girlfriend, sorry! I will update some pictures of her in her uniform, they are so cute.
Now Princess Amaya on the other hand is learning her dance moves and I think that she watches who is watching her more than looking at her teacher. The other day the teacher had them all line up and sit down in a row, well Amaya decided she didn't want to sit on the end so she wiggled her way in the middle almost on another little girls lap. It was the funniest thing to watch, plenty of room on the end, but it wasn't the attention spot. She is excited that she will be performing her dance routine in May, and can't wait to show off for everyone.
In March it was Aunt Sherry's surprise 50th birthday that we attended in Idaho. The girls got a kick out of the funny stuff she got,and of course we all had to tell the crazy stories about back in the day. I reminded her of the dance routine that some of my crazy aunts put on and performed at Lagoon. The song was " She works hard for her Money", and I just remember my little innocent Aunt Sherry dressed like a hooker with a whip, and man could she crack it lol. Her sister also had to tell stories of her doing naughty things that her parents wouldn't approve, and she would drag her siblings into it so they couldn't tell on her. Wow, Why didn't I think of that. This is coming out now, now that I am an adult and don't have anyone to blackmail. We had such a great time and I know how happy was that we were all there to share the special time with her. We love you Aunt Sherry!
We also had my little niece Rivers birthday. She turned 3, and man does she have the attitude to go with it. Dinomite does come in small packages, she is so cute and she loves to play with the girls. Amaya and her will disappear and finally when they come to, they are all dressed up with makeup and their hair done. They are little princesses. I love to watch all the kids together and when they don't fight its the best.
My Brother Justin decided to go back down to Lake Powell and work. We miss him so much, but know how much he loves doing what he does. He is a beach bum, and you can't keep him out of the water. He will be back in like October, but til then we will just have to wait til he either comes home for a break or we go there. I would really like to show the girls what Lake Powell is all about. It's such a beautiful place. Justin also had his birthday this month, we didn't get to see him, but knowing him I am sure he has some awesome pictures of what he did.
We did talk about going to San Francisco, and we decided that it will be in May. We are driving for 12 hours with two girls who love to fight in the back. Wish us luck, I know it is going to be insane, but worth the memories. We are planning to go out there for Baby Matthews 1st birthday. We haven't gotten to see him yet so this will be the first and we are so excited. We will stop in Reno and probably stay at Circus Circus so we can have a break and then drive the rest of the way.
In June it will be back to California, this time in Long Beach. I want to play at the beach and see the sun, have good weather, watch the girls play in the water, and just enjoy the time out there. California will be our place of travel this year. Rhandie will be the Godfather to one of his friends baby's so that why we are going out the second time, its not because we enjoy driving 12 hours every weekend, believe me. We will probably have to stop again, just for our sanity, because yes we are taking the girls both times. The second time will be easier because my wonderful Mother in Law will be with us so she can control the kids in the back. Yeah!
Last but not least, its almost Easter, 3 more days. We usually go to the fitness center for the Easter Egg Hunt, and then to my in laws and my parents for the rest of the party. They love to see the girls and let me tell ya, they get spoiled. Rhandz and I benefit from it too because we get to eat their candy... score! and most of its free, can't get better than that. Okay so I think that is enough updates for the moment, watch for more at a later date!

I was wondering where time goes?

It feels like time is flying by, I just talked about Christmas and now wow, March is here. The weather is warming up, the kids can play outside, and the grass is starting to turn green (kind of, maybe its in my head). I am so excited for the day that Jaycee can spar in Tae Kwon Do, and to watch Amayas little dance recital. My kids remind me everyday that I am not getting any younger and that they are always growing and getting older . Can time just stop so we can enjoy each other and the moment? I look on the news and I wonder what their little world will be like when they are older. Its amazing how much happens in one day, if time stopped for a moment would everyone stop too? Would we take the time to tell someone we loved them or just watch and amire what awesome people are around us? I just don't ever want my loved ones to feel one ounce of pain, if I could endure everything just to take it away from one of them I would. If I could change the world I would, if I could wipe these monsters off the face of the earth I would, just to make sure that we are all okay. I hate hearing that people are dead because others don't know how to be humanly acceptable in this world, I only have one question Why? I can't understand how you can hurt someone and not feel remorseful. How can you kill another human being and walk away? When you are being sentenced to death, how can you sit there and show no emotion, or say that you are not guilty? Do you have a conscience? I am for the death penalty but not for how long it takes, if you are guilty and you get the death sentence, I believe it should be within 24 hrs, and boom your gone. Why is it that when the government does cuts they want to take it away from education? Have you not ever thought about getting rid of these worthless people already in Prison and kill them, that would save a ton of money. Why would you think about cutting the kids from learning? Me, I guess it will never make sence the reason somethings happen and others don't. I want this world to be a wonderful place for our kids and kids kids. I want to walk down the street and not have to worry about checking my back because anything can happen. I want my kids to be able to play outside by themselves without having to worry that some dispictful predator is watching them. I want life to be easy and the events that happen are good and fun to listen to and talk about. I have so much fun with my friends and family they are my life, everything revolves around them and I wish that I never have to sit here and write that something happens to them ever! I sit here and read others blogs and think wow I hope that I never have to feel like that or experience what they are going through. Life is never predictable, you just kind of go with the flow. I am trying to make myself be a better person everyday, to help people in need, to comfort a crying child, to make the pain go away, to make someone smile just because I am being myself. I do ask that all of you beautiful, wonderful people in this world do the same, take time for others and to make it a better place. If we can't rely on eachother, who else do we have?

Some feelings about things in life...

I have often been wondering why life happens the way it happens, its kind of like you can't really explain it but just watch it go by. I have been thinking alot about why certain people die before others and wouldn't it be nicer if you actually all went to heaven at the same time instead of being sad that only certain people die at certain times. Why wouldnt families just go together, but then when would it end, its kinda like we are all linked some how. Just the way that it all works is wierd, and its kinda annoying. I have also been thinking about the fact that if we never died then when would it stop, the over population would their be a limit to how many people could actually be on the earth at one time, or would you never be able to have kids or your kids have kids? Its just amazing that you could never actually find out. Another note, if you could know when and how you were going to die would you want to know? Would you live your life any different, or would it make you feel that it was closer everyday and you would sulk in the fact? I keep playing all of these feelings and thoughts in my head and it makes me mad that I will never have any control over any of the unknown. One question I would have for God is why would you take children and young people over these dangerous people here on earth, why not give the kids a chance? Why make them stuffer and what is it for a life lesson, but when its all said and done, do we actually ever get over the feeling of missing some one you love and you wish you could love forever. I just look at all of these criminals and think wow what a waste of space and air, why not take them out of this world to let others who are great live? I don't know why I am thinking these thoughts, maybe because it kills me to see family and friends mourn the loss of the ones they love, and there is nothing you can do about it. You just sit there and tell them it will get easier, but how do you know, will it really or thats just what you have heard from dr's or people that have been through these kind of things in their life, or do we just walk around numb? Are we just waiting our turn to finally be with our loved ones again? Baffling and frustrating.

Time is Flying by!

I can't believe its already February tomorrow. It seems like Christmas and the holidays just got over. Training is over now and I am now doing my new position, it has really been nice, I feel like the nice guy again. I can actually say congrats and its my job, wow, what a neat experience.
Rhandie is still doing the same thing, which he really likes and he enjoys his team, so its good for him to stay there. On the second hand some of his co workers got him involved in this warfare computer game and he is totally addicted.
Jaycee has been doing really good in school and although she thinks that word is a bad word, she is doing great and she thinks she should be in 4th grade becuase she is so smart she got alot of a's on her report card! She constantly reminds me that she is smart and she thinks she is smarter than her parents. Jaycee also is going to start Tae Kwon Do soon, which she is totally stoked about.
Amaya is doing well too, she has a cold right now, as well as I do, but for the most part she is growing fast. She wants to be big like her sister and go to school. She is my little shopping buddy, I can take her anywhere and she doesnt complain about shopping, boy do I love that. My little Aya wants to be in dance so we need to get that going too.
I really want things to slow down, but the same time things to speed up so that it can be warm weather and we can play outside. I would love to start working on my yard again. This year I am going to finish the back yard and work on the front, so my yard looks as good as my retired neighbors. Thats really all thats going on for now. Kinda thinking about what to do for Valentines Day this year.

Not really anything new......

Lets see so I thought I would blog a little bit.... I am trying to think of something to write. The only thing that crosses my mind is a vacation, or in other words some alone time with my hubby. Rhandz really wanted to go to wendover and see "Air Supply", but it sold out and training for me isn't done until next monday, so that is kinda out of the question. Maybe in Feb when its all over we can take a couple days and get away. I want to stay close and not spend too much money, so pretty much wendover or Idaho.... hmmmm we will see. The girls are doing really well considering I wake them up every morning early, they have been pretty good. This summer we would like to go spend some time in California preferably San Francisco and see some family, that is our goal, good thing that tax refunds are coming up. We also told Amaya when she is 5 yrs old we would take her to Disneyland, she really wants to see the princess', even Rhandz loves the girls (lol), Belle is his favorite. Last time we went I think that we have more footage of Belle than the family on the ride. I better watch out ha ha ha. So on that note we will be saving up for that vacation as well. I am really hoping I do well at this job so that we can have the money to put away. I am going to try hard to make it go well. Okay so until another update, well wishes for you all!

Is Training over with yet?

I am in training for a new position and I am exhausted. I think my family is feelin it too, I have to wake up early as well as wake my girls up, ahh we are not morning people. I feel that I have learned alot but I am more anxious to get on the phones and do it. The class thinks I am crazy because of the way I think and say things lol, oh well its me right? I am really missing my friends that I use to sit by too, they are thinking I abandon them, sorry I still love you all. And for my friends that I used to hang out with in the morning, I miss you all too. Everytime I think about complaining I think ya know it could be alot worse so Shari suck it up and deal with it. I have a healthy family, a house to live in, and food in our bellies so life pretty much is great. I didn't even have to cook today, or should I say Rhandie didn't have to cook tonight. My mom made an awesome turkey pot pie last night, so I just stopped by and picked up the leftovers, its one of the white girls favorites, the filipinos are wondering where the rice is at., she also gave us brownies so score we got both and there was no labor involved. Thanks mom! We also got to hit the gym and see my wonderful mother in law, she is so helpful and I am really greatful that we have grandparents, they are wonderful. I don't know what I would do without my parents and Rhandies parents, they are like angels! It must be a new year though because the gym was packed, wow the only machines open were the treadmills so I did that. It was nice just to go and work out for a little bit. I do feel so bad for Rhandz he passed out at 6:30 tonight, poor guy is exhausted. I tried to talk him into going in work later at like 7:30 instead of 6, but he insists on working that crazy morning shift. I hope to post some pics soon. Love you all and hopefully soon I will be bringing in the dough Yeah baby Yeah!!!!!

The New Year so far has been wonderful!

The start of this year has pretty well been awesome. It has been kinda low key other than me training for a new position. The family has adjusted well to me working later in the afternoon, but I am feeling left out so I am going to be working days now and will be home earlier to help out more. Plus I love spending time outside of work chatting and visiting friends & family. I am looking forward to my normal schedule again and what I call normal life... being available to take Jaycee to school, drop off Amaya at lola's house, and then not having to stress about getting to work on time... normal to me is 9:30-4:30. I am right now on an 8am shift...waking up early, waking jaycee up early (which she is not a morning person), and then waking up Amaya lastly (who loves her sleep, and to wake up on her own, so yes she is yelling and crying in the morning), dropping off Jaycee to a wonderful friend of ours (Traci love ya), dropping off Amaya at lolas and then heading to work. Ahhh its been kinda hard. Last night however we did have a great time seeing our good friend Gor. He is so entertaining and I think he thinks the same of us. Amaya and Jaycee were showing off their mad skills on the wii and rockband. Then we lost his keys and we were looking all over the place, it was kinda fun! Anyway we always have a good time with him and we miss him.
Today is thursday its getting closer to friday which means that the weekend will be here soon, yippee! I don't have any plans, hubby would like to go see Avatar in 3D, so maybe we will do that . After this week I just want to relax and sleep in. For all you who know me knows that sleeping is one of my favorite things to do! I hope that you are all having a wonderful start to the New Year, and wish us all luck, money and health...
