Let's Do Something Amazing!

I love music. I also love Hilary Weeks. She is a singer/song writer and produces uplifting and inspirational music that I love more than I can describe in a blog. She has a new c.d. "Every Step" coming out next Tuesday and is trying to get charted on the Christian Billboard charts. She needs help in order to do this and I am trying to help her. You can help her too! Find out how on facebook. I hope you will consider joining me in this. Also here is a video from her explaining how to help.

Snow in October!

Only in Idaho does it look like the middle of December on October 6th! I need more sunshine and am not ready for teh snow to be here for teh next 6 - 7 months. However teh kids are having a blast playing in it and Samuel is creating a huge snow wall in our front yard. He should have fun playing his flag football game tonight in the snow.

Back Again!

So I have not blogged for about 13 months! It has been crazy, busy, hectic. Since last September things have changed for our family. We found out I was pregnant in October of 2010 and welcomed our 4th son, Mack Lincoln Bush, into our family on May 29th 2011 at 10:59 p.m.

He is a great baby and is now 4 months old. His brothers love him and I love having 4 boys!

Samuel will be 8 in January and is loving the 2nd grade and playing flag football. He is so smart and such a great artist. He really enjoys school and reading and is taking piano and doing well at it.

Russell turned 5 in July and is enjoying an extra year of being a kid before he starts Kindergarten next year. He is a funny kid and very sensitve and tender hearted.

James will be 3 on the 18th of this month. He has a bit of a speech delay but that does not stop him from trying to tell you what is on his mind. He is my wild child! We are currently trying to potty train him. He will start pre-school on his birthday.

Mack is my easiest kid at the moment. He smiles all the time and has the cutest little laugh. He sleeps great at night, is not fussy, and a joy to have in our family.

Life is good and we are blessed!

My Parents 1 Year Mark

August 29th marked my parents 1 year anniversary from getting baptized! They are now taking Temple Prep classes and hoping to be able to go to the Temple in September. They are excited and i am almost in denial that this could really be happening. You never know what the Lord has in store for you.

My Nerdy Kids

Russell has these funny glasses and thinks it is cool or fun to be a nerd. Then he let James try them on. they were having so much fun with just these 1 pair of glasses.

School Days

I thought I would be sad and miss Samuel like crazy when he went to 1st grade ALL day long. I have to admit the first morning was a bit rough getting up early and getting him on the bus. I was emotional as the big yellow school bus drove my firstborn off to school. I came home and got ready for the day. I noticed that it was very calm and quite. I had more time to get things done. Could it be that this was a blessing in disguise? Russell and James still have their occasional tiff but they play quite and are good little boys. I just might end up liking Samuel being away at school. Part of me feels like a terrible mother that I would enjoy not having one of my kids around and the other part knows he needs an education and that is why he is gone. Might as well enjoy what life brings.

Where Have I Been?

You know I thought that I would be good at this blogging thing. I like to write, I like to know what's going on with others. I work online so I thought I could do it. Well I am not so good at it. Things happen and I don't share I just write in my journal with a pen from my personal collection. For all those who may be interested in what has been going on here ya go.
