Life Expectancy

I have had lot's of fun with these little survey's and things lately. I loved this one that calculated your life expectancy. Of course it gives me several suggestions to add on more years so I will have to give it a try so that I can stick around for a good long time!

My calculated life expectancy is 85 years

(I got it from answering a few questions on livingto100.com.)

Which Disney Princess Are You?


I am Jasmine!

Independent and adventurous. You don't want much; just to break out of the guilded cage society has put you in and experience life to the fullest. Following orders isn't really one of your strong points, and you would rather live a life of poverty than being forced into something that you hate.

Updates....

Ok so for all of you who check my blog I'm soooooo sorrrrryyyyy! I have been a blog slacker lateley, the last few months have been so hectic, but I think that this will catch me all up for now & I will try to do much better from now on. So here is what's been going on, the company that I worked for closed their doors here locally so I had 2 months to find something new, I did get a new job and have started to work for WL Gore, (the bad thing is they only hire f/t so I went from working 4hrs a night to 10 hrs a night 2:30-12:30 pm) wow has that been a shock to my system, but I think I am figuring it out. We went to our anual big family reunion for 9 days and enjoyed being to relax & hang out a bit (we missed everyone that wasn't there), we came home on Sunday & I started work Monday I didn't plan that too well, but Scott was amazing and made sure that everything ran smooth, I really am very spoiled! Scott has had several appointments with the Mayo Clinic and we fill we are getting somewhere so hopefully soon we will know what we can do to help him out so that he will start feeling back to normal (or as close as he can). We have a great Nanny (Ann) that comes in to be here with the boys during our few hours of overlap and she has been awsome to help with some of the house work too, the boys sure love her, thank goodness. Oh and probably the funnest news (atleast for the boys) they got bunkbeds and oh how they love them! Matt has done very well on his big boy bed & Jake loves getting to be on top cause he's so big. I know the beds aren't made but the boys were so excited to get to bed. I hope you all enjoy catching up with us, we love to see how you are all doing, sorry for all the slide shows but it was the easiest way to get caught up. Love Ya All. Melinda

Ok so if you know me very well you'll know that I am not the best house wife out there. But I did manage to put up a few batches of Plum Jam this summer.

Lake Mary Trip with Les & Tori



While Les & Tori were out we got to go to the lake a few times, we had so much fun and the water was pretty nice even though it was a little cold. Les is pretty good she has already passed me way up! Dad even got out it was a great time.

4th of July

We had such a good time over the 4th. Yep we were at the Ranch again, we sure love that place, especially the people that usually come with it. It is so fun to get to spend time with so much of our family while we are there. The Brinton's let us crash with them again, and we are sure greatful, the boys have even taken to them as an extra set of Grandparents :-). My kids are sure lucky to have so much family that spoil them and love them. We had some strage weather while we were there some sun, rain, snow, & even hail. But it was all worth it to get to be out enjoying good company.
