How much can you pack into a week? With four teenagers and
moving from one Ranch to the other….You can pack a lot in. I might actually
sleep a little while I write this blog to catch up ha. ZZZZZ…okay back! I am
awake. What was I saying again? Oh yes! We had a crazy fun week.
We have had two baseball games with Jason. They won both
games and he was able to steal home. I love watching him play especially
because he enjoys it so much.
Joshua turned 15! I still can’t believe I have a 15 year old
that is 6’2’’. He is by far the tallest in our household. He has outgrown Ryan
and I by the time he was 14 ha! I still can’t believe he is already 15. He had
a great time with his friends the weekend before with a slumber party. He was
beyond excited when he got his present of his headphones that he has been
wanting forever. On his ACTUAL birthday we were moving and let me tell you he
used that to his advantage ha! Plus that got all the kids more snacks and soda
which we don’t normally have in the house. The other kids were grateful for
that too. Right now is the only time of the year that I have a 17, 16, 15 and
then 14 year old. At different times of the year it ends up being two 17 year
olds and two 15 year olds. That’s what happens when you have an amazing blended
family.
Side note! Four teenagers. In just one week we will have a
Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior. What was I ever thinking? In four years
it’s going to be so quiet. I am SO NOT looking forward to that.
Then we had the FFA event. Future Farmers of America where
Cassie and Joshua both won awards. It was a nice Tri tip Dinner and seeing what
they have been doing this year. It was a good event. Jackson was in FFA last
year and Jason is in 4H this year. It will be interesting which kids decide to
do it next year. Joshua won his Greenhand Degree and Parliamentary Procedure
Career Development Event Award. Cassie received her Chapter FFA degree. I was
very proud of those two.
The kids had a field trip couple hours away to an Aquatics
Center also. They had a lot of fun with their friends. Pretty neat to be a
small school so everyone could all go. Love how they do this at the end of the year.
Then on top of all of this we were moving. Yep! We moved a
whole house of stuff from one ranch to another. I am so grateful for my husband
and kids. I have to give extra kudos to my oldest Jackson because he really
used a lot of strength. We got a HUGE U-Haul, loaded it in one day and unloaded
it the next. Then had to bring all the
animals up also. It was just the 6 of us and Jackson’s good friend Mateo. Thankfully it was a three day weekend. We were
all beat. The kids set up their rooms and I worked on the rest of the house
while also feeding them every 5 minutes it seemed. You know teenagers get…they
are NEVER full.
I absolutely love this house. Love Love Love it! Its
beautiful inside and out but the views are glorious for as far as the eye can
see. This was one crazy week! Next week is even more. 8th grade
trip, Baseball games, Academic Awards Ceremony, Ortho Appointments and Maybe a
Bull riding event if the double header gets done in time. Oh and did I mention
Finals and Graduations? Man this time of year is crazy busy but its so worth
it. I really should stop beating myself up for not blogging this week huh? Now
that we are all set up in the new house I will be more on top of it. Its hard
to blog when your stuff is in a box. J
