One of those weeks

Talk about having one of those weeks. Nick and I had to travel to Montana to do a job there. It was on the indian reservation so it was out in the middle of no where. We spent 4 days there working long nights and then having nothing to do during the day.

While we were gone, Nikki was back home with the kids battling household disasters. The new TV broke, the basement flooded with septic water and a wind storm tore the backyard apart. We also had a stump removed from the front yard that made a huge mess. So we got home in time to shop vac out the basement and then listen as 3 kids did all they could to do help by saying, "ewwwww, gross."

Jaren spent a whole week at the Washington Intensive Wrestling camp. He got home and said he would never go again, no matter what. They worked out like crazy. They got up one morning at 2am and ran 10 miles. They were in class 24 hours a day. The wrestling team from Boise state put it on. He got home yesterday and has pretty much just slept and ate.

Nick has been playing indoor soccer and is the star goalie. He has never done it before but seems to be quite good. It must be that second base experience.

Darbi has been reading those vampire books non stop. They must be good.

Zoe stays busy being in everybodies business. She loves the computer.

Jaren, nobody would ever fault you for not wanting to go back to that crazy camp!! Nobody should ever have to spend their summer working that hard. haha
As for the basement mishap - I agree with the kids!! EEEEWWWW! YUCK!

I was wondering where you have been! Understand Darbie's obsession...I loved them, so did Sommer. Was it wrestling camp or Boot camp...come on.
