Well, Ashlen is making me a big crazy. She loves to make a mess, I am talking bad messes. I don't even try to pick them up anymore cause it just encourages her to do it again. I don't think I have ever witnessed a kid so into mischief at such a young age. Since writing these few words she has already dumped out a box of crayons, thrown all the cushions off the couch, and is now standing on a plastic storage box singing nonsense.
Ashlen has a favorite doll that she carries around with her. Just a few minutes ago I rescued the doll from the toilet. It had been dunked several times so I had to spray clorox on her and stick her is the tub to soak. I have also found the doll in the dishwasher, dryer, garbage, chest of drawers, and in the stack of dirty clothes. Many other places as well but not as interesting as the toilet. Ashlen loves the toilet, I close the door to the bathroom 100 times a day at least but she always finds those times that it has been left open.
Lauren finished off her volleyball season yesterday as district champs. she played great, Brent and I kept giving each other high fives when she would spike the ball. she also came home last week with a straight A report card. She has a tough load in school taking all honors, we are very proud of her.
Peytens football team is playing in the "superbowl" this weekend. His baseball team last weekend took home a first place trophy in their tournament. Austens football team lost in the second round of the playoffs, but he made the "all pro team" for his leaque. His baseball team has their first tournament this weekend. lauren also starts club volleyball next week so we aren't taking any breaks from sports this time around. my life as a taxi driver. Thank goodness for drive thru's and talk radio!!!!
Brent took a four day trip to Alabama to play golf with 3 of his college buddies. He said he had a great time and loved every minute of the beautiful weather and great friends. I on the other hand loved having 3 out of the four kids sleeping with me for 4 nights. They had to take turns sleeping next to me, I feel so lucky. I do have dreams that I am sometimes sleeping all alone in a huge bed all toasty and warm. No one kicking me and plenty of covers, sheets smell fresh and when I awake in the morning I am looking forward to a day all to myself with no one fighting over which cereal bowl they want. I do love my sleep, but I happen to love my kids with me even more. I would like the no fighting thing though.
Ashlen and I are going to pick up a new car today. We decided on black this time. I always get white, I am sick of white. Then I think we are going to head to costco to shop and then my favorite time of the day, her naps!!!!!
Hope you all have a happy friday.

Yeah! A new post! Yuck! Doll's head in the toilet. Naughty Ashlen. That is exciting news about all the kids sports. And Lauren's grades. I like to hear about what they are doing. Good for you on the black car. Black is my favorite but Mike says that's because I don't ever wash the car.
