I Gotta Get Some Sleep

I used to sleep all the time and I did not even understand the concept of not being able to fall asleep.  I would hear people talking about taking something to help them sleep and that just seemed so crazy to me.  I could sleep anytime, not necessarily any place, but if I wanted a nap during the day that wasn't a problem.  I could sleep during the day and fall asleep at night.  Now it is a whole different story.  I am guessing it starting about the same time as Ray got off the road and was home all the time.  A lot of things changed in my life and that did to and I hate it.  I have never needed sleeping help and the idea of taking something to sleep was just not real.  Well, I understand all of you non sleepers now and I HATE IT.  I have tried several things and nothing is working.  So, I may have to break down and get a prescription.  I can't fall asleep at night and it really makes me crazy.  

No, it didn't help.  FYI

The other night I watched Greg Stoddard take some vitamins.  It was so funny, I take all of these at once and he could barely swallow one at a time.  I or course made fun of him, but I guess some people are just different, I can't sleep and others can.  So, that's all.
But one more thing, these are the vitamins I take at night along with my blue pill and sleeping pills.


Snap Chat Naughtiness

I must have snapped these two about being at church and this is what I got back.  Silly sluffers.
So, Kinlee and I snapped this back to them.  We love those two ladies.


Tonias Here Yay Friend Time

Our favorite Tonia came to visit Tiff so we had to make a party of it.  Even though Ray doesn't look excited, he totally was, he just doesn't like his picture taken.  We had dinner, played cards and hung out.  We just love our friends and getting together.  And Tonia and Parker were just icing on the cake.

 

 

 

I guess most of the men in these pictures look overly thrilled, don't they.  Connor and Cort were there too and even let me take their pictures.  I just love those boys.  Connor was talking about dating the other night when we were over there which is taboo and we are not supposed to talk about with him but he informed us he just doesn't talk to his parents about dating.  Tiff said Ray and Janel aren't your parents and he said "well close enough" which really made me feel good.  Even though he doesn't like discussing dating with us. 


Dance Competition....I know weird right

 




Brooke let me go tally the scores of the dance competition she is in charge of.  It was at KaReena's new school where she teaches.  I really just sat in a room the whole time and didn't get to see anyone dance, but I got to see KaReena and the school.  Things were a little sketchy in the beginning with my printer, but it was because I didn't open the door on the printer where the paper comes out.  It was something a little different that what I usually do on Saturday.  
See where it says Titans?  My nephews wife Victoria designed their logo for their new school, which I think is pretty awesome.  I was able to go out during the awards ceremony and watch the ISU dance team perform.  

Change is Hard

With everything else going on in our crazy lives, I can't remember if I even posted about our ward boundary changes.  I am sure I did, but I want to revisit the topic whether I did or not.  Last Sunday, as I was still struggling with the change in boundaries, calling, church building, etc., I went into the bathroom at the new building.  You are all going to think I am pretty crazy, but here it goes.  I walked in the bathroom and the stalls are PURPLE.  I know its really stupid but if you know me you know I love purple and on a side note I haven't been into the bathroom at our new building since changing buildings.  And mind you I know its super trivial, but the purple made me feel a little like I am really at home.  It is a hard change and certain people are not in my ward, but the church is true where ever we go and the people might be different but I can do this.  We have been through some really hard things lately and this most certainly isn't going to break me.  My new church calling is with the young women and some of my very best friends are serving with me.  Kinlee is just finishing Young Womens and so I get to spend extra time with her and did I mention we have the most amazing bishopric and we get to make new friends.  It really is a win win, and we get purple bathroom stalls.
