Slacking again......will I ever catch up? Probably not.....

Okay, truth be told...I am tired!! I can't believe that it's been almost a month since my last post. I am sure no one is counting, but I feel bad to miss out on documenting our adventures. So, quick update.......

• Love, love, love the newest baby in our family. Another HUGE Lines baby was born to my brother Michel and his amazing wife Shanon. I feel so lucky to have been able to hold him when he was only hours old. I thought Krista was big at 9 lb. 2 oz.....and this little dude was 9 lb. 4 oz....and so dang cute! Go check him out on their blog.
• Took another test last Saturday.....about 1800 people, ($140 some odd dollars later, after buying a study guide), 4 hours of filling in bubbles and writing an essay....and I won't know for a month if I passed or not. All I do know is that I wasted $30 bucks on a study manual because nothing that I studied was on that test. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
• Halloween was fun, as always.....I need to post those pictures. Brett had a bummer of a night though when he got nailed in the face with a water balloon while he was riding his quad over to the neighbor's house. He had his "Jason" mask on and was wearing all black and the kid that threw the balloon actually had perfect aim......square on his nose. I still can't believe it wasn't broken. Other than that.....love Halloween....hate pranks that can hurt, but love most everything else about it.
• We had a great mother-daughter modesty night a couple of weeks ago for Young Women's and the older activity day girls were invited, so I got to go with all of my daughters. It was definitely worth missing school that night for some time with my girlies.
• Had a rib out of place last Sunday and Monday.....so not fun. Thank goodness for chiropractors and massage therapists. I wish I had some way cool story to tell about how it got out of place, but no such luck. It just did it on its own.....so not fun.
• Work, work, and more work......school, school and more school.....can't wait to have some of our life back. Don't mean to sound like a big 'ol fat complainer...just am counting down the time.
• Love facebook......what an awesome way to connect with friends, both old and new......love, love, love it!! If you're not on it, get on it, and then be my friend.
• My baby brother Stephen(#6) turned 20-something, my baby sister Melissa turned 20-something too, and my #3 brother Brent has a birthday tomorrow and I'll just go ahead and say that he's 20-something too since I am the oldest and still holdin' on at 29, so we'll just leave it at that......Wow, we are all getting so old.
  

Okay, I know I probably left out way better stuff that I could have written about, but it is what it is. I will now post my 4th file, 4th picture for fun since I saw that Tawna tagged me...it is the 4th file and 4th picture, right??....and now that I've looked at the picture, I couldn't have picked a better one. It's me and Tawna on the bus on our way to camp in 2006. What a blast that was. So, here it is! I now tag anyone who wants to play along.

Happy day everyone!
