Little up date without any pictures

So I realize I haven't updated anything since April. There's a good reason for that. Our computer at home DIED!!! It finally kicked the bucket and I haven't had a chance at work to update. Meaning I haven't wanted to come early or stay late to update my blog. So here we go. Russ did graduate he was unable to find a job for this school year but had an interview for a new school going up in Saratoga Springs that will open fall of 2009. He's been really busy with the band. As many of you know Charley Jenkins (who Russ plays for) was on Nashville Star in June on NBC. He was the first contestant booted off. It was a coorporate decision rather than a jugde decision but non the less we've been very busy. They've opened for Lady Antibellum and Daryl Worley they are opening for Carolina Rain tonight and will open for Montgumery Gentry in Pocetello on Sept 21st I think. The kids are getting big, Brock finally desided he wanted to walk all by himself so for the past 1 1/2 weeks he's found new freedoms. His vocabulary is growing everyday. When he wakes up first thing he screams for Gracee, then he needs a drink and then wants cereal in a bag (Lucky Charms) He learned how to pick out the marshmellows early! He just throws the cereal out of the bag as he digs for more cereal. It's pretty funny. He says please and thanks, dog, meow, chicken, cocka-doodle-doo, candy, fish, no no and bad boy that's my favorite. Gracee is getting big! She starts pre-school in 1 1/2 weeks. Crazy! They grow so fast. Everyday she tells me she's going to pre-school today and I say another day so now she says "I go to pre-school another day mama?" She's too cute. She's really had a ton of fun this summer with all the neighborhood kids. They ride bikes, scooters, jeeps, and whatever else they can find. The neighbors just got a trampoline and she calls it a jumpaline and love to jump. I took her and Brock to Kangaroo Zoo (it's a inflatable jumping place) a couple of weeks ago and they had so much fun. Brock wasn't walking yet on his own so he had a blast just holding my finger and walking me around all the toys. I did put him on the little 0-2yr bouncer and he was a bit nervous but after a few minutes he desided it wasn't too bad. Gracee was running all over the place I had a hard time following her everywhere. She made some new friends there and just kind of played with them the whole time. She was going down huge slides and loving it. Back in June she had tried the slides and was fine on the first slide but got to the top the second time and cried. My niece who really wanted to go down the slide went up to get her. So I was shocked when she just kept going and going like it was no big deal. I am still working and actually working a lot lately it's been kind of slow. Hence, I'm updating my blog. Just a little FYI my mom is getting remarried. He's a really good guy from Payson and he just wants to take care of her which is nice. My life is not very exciting I really don't do anything without my kids so what they do I do and I love every minute of it. Hopefully one day I'll be able to put some pictures on here but I'm pretty sure I shouldn't download the Kodak program on to a work computer I just might get in trouble.
