Ah crap.

I'm so overwhelmed at the amount of blogging I am behind in that I am now just avoiding it. I really have a lot to say, but for now I'll try to sum it up. We had two birthdays in August. School started in August. Samantha and Phoebe both learned to ride a bike without training wheels in August. We had another round of swimming lessons. Our parents anniversaries and numerous extended family birthdays. Sang in church with my sisters. Trevor finally got the ac in the van fixed! Boo-yah on that one!  Decorated a major event and did a good job using weeds as centerpieces (I can only take the credit for the idea on this, but good job Kaitlin and Megan!). I have so much more to say, but I can catch it all up another time. 

Violated

Today has been just about the worst day I've had in a really looooong time. Really. Pretty bad. The cherry on top though... the icing on the cake... tonight while organizing the garage I found a wonderful treasure; a mouse had made a nest in a tote of sweet little 18 month old girls clothes. He/she had nestled deep inside and pooped and pottied all over. Not only that, but the mouse had also decided that my sweet little clothes smelled so good,  they must taste good too. That mouse had better hide, because as of right now this means war. That mouse is gonna be dead meat.
