Randomness

Wait......What.....29 bucks to fill the tank....that can't be where it's stopping. It's been almost 24 hours and I'm still overjoyed. We have 3 vehicles that we use regularly. Our kids are involved in many activities and most of the time Chris and I have to be in different places at the same time so we have two little "gas-getters" a Camry and a Saturn the dreaded "gas-guzzler" aka an SUV don't get me wrong I love my Durango, when we need to go anywhere all together it's a MUST and it's a BEAST in the snow (which in Utah is a must). Since we live 45 miles away from any BIG city we drive the little cars a lot. I usually drive the Camry but since Chris car-pulls with 3 other men he has decided to take it when it's his week to drive. So when I filled up the Saturn yesterday I felt like I really hit the lottery I got such an adrenalin rush and randomly throughout the day I smiled just thinking about it. I know it's only 11 gallon tank but still.

Forever Memories~

Kids say and do the funniest things. I have a hard time remembering all the fun things that happen during the day. Ang is growing up so fast over the last couple weeks it's like her vocab has expanded 200 words, because of that we've been having some detailed conversations.

Just today 1-17-13 she was sitting on the couch and
she said "Mom I have a boy in my class his name is Breck, he's very funny and laughs all the time"
Me- "Oh ya, is he your boyfriend?"
Ang- "No, he's just funny"
Me- "Oh but he's not your boyfriend"
Ang- with a huge smile "Nope and I'm bored of talking about this"
Me- "When I was little I had a boyfriend named Breck-he was my first boyfriend" (true story)
Ang- smiling even bigger "Okay.....he's my boyfriend"

Later that night-
Me- teasing her I said "it's bedtime have sweet dreams about Breck"
Ang- "I'm NOT, I'm having sweet dreams about UTES!"

Thata' girl, school before boys always! GO UTES!!

 
 
The kids that always has something off the wall to say is Gage oh man I could seriously write a book on his witty comments. He's defiantly his fathers child.
This was a conversation yesterday....
 
Me- "Gage you need to get that homework done"
Gage- "nope, it's already done"
Me- "no it's not, bring it hear and let me see it"
Gage- "why?"
Me- "I need to check it" he brings me a half finished paper. I say-"hey this isn't finished, you didn't do anything while you've been sitting here!" 
Gage- with a deep stare "uh, all I hear is blah, blah, blah"
 
At the time I didn't find it funny at all but now I have to admit I'm smiling a little as I write this.
