what we're up to

We have been happily busy lately.

CURTIS

Curtis loves his new job. He brings home a lot of samples so we have candy filling our food storage shelf's. When the other distributers put out their samples, hes good to snatch a few of those too. He recently brought home about years worth of lotion, shampoo, conditioner and a few bottles of gel and face scrub. Who doesn't love free? Of course the down side of the job is the commute. He leaves before 7am and gets home around 6pm depending on traffic.
Curtis is also a part of the Elders presidency in our ward. He is gone to meetings on Thursday nights and Sunday mornings. He has made some really good friendships with the rest of the presidency and we have even gone on a few double dates with them.

COLLETTE
I'm still at Heritage Makers. I have added Fridays to my schedule so now I'm there 3 days a week 7-2:30. I too love my job. I work in customer support so I help clients and consultants with any questions they have regarding our program, pay incentives or up coming events. Heritage makers has become my hobby. I've been sucked in. About a year ago I was in one of their focus groups and I told them there is no way I would pay their prices. So far I have published at least 10 books 5 canvases and a whole lot of cards. I have a lot of projects I have completed but have never printed...It is still a bit expensive for me to do all I want.
On my days off, I get to watch Isaac. I have him until a little before 5:30. I love these days. I get so much done and I get to snuggle and play with the boys. The diapers are the downfall but that will come to an end soon enough.
I have signed up for another Digital camera class. This one is held at Maple Mountain High. I really like the classes and they have me all excited about taking pictures. My class is on Tuesday nights and my friend from work, Brit, she is taking it with me.
A new thing in my life ... I'm now a beehive adviser. I have been the young woman's sports director for our ward so I already have a great relationship with the girls. We have really awesome girls. I hope they don't find out I'm no that cool. Lets keep that a secret.

MAX
Max has the life. Mondays and Wednesdays he gets to hang out with is cousin Isaac. Max loves it! He gets so excited every time he sees Isaac. We have a good schedule down for those days. Max is usually up before 7 and Isaac gets here around 7:30ish. They boys play and chase around until 9 when Isaac gets tired. Max gets sleepy around 11:00. They are both playing again by 1 then Isaac gets sleepy again around 3. Between snacks and tormenting the dog, they sure have a lot of fun.
Tuesdays he plays with Grandma Kizzy. They do all kinds of fun stuff like making cookies, doing laundry, playing cars...you know, the good stuff.
Thursdays Max spends time with Grandma Finch. He loves to go outside and play in the yard. He has one favorite toy at grandmas. It is a transformer car. It goes from a yellow sedan to a cobra.
Fridays he gets to go to Isaac's stomping ground. Like I said, he loves Isaac. They get to go on walks and play with all of Isaac's toys. For some reason they love his bouncer (it has a lot of bells and whistles).
Max has just started visiting nursery. We are finding we need to work on a lot of things.

Saturdays we are a family again. We are always looking for something fun to do as a family. Last week we went to see Uncle Kenton at Snow Collage. Kevin was on a date so we'll let him off the hook.
Our weekends are always too short - or maybe Mondays come too fast.

Well...now you know. This is what is going on in our life.
