Who is your hero?

I went to the Successful Mothering Convention today. My Mom was thrilled (apparently she can tell I need some help too...). I convinced my friend Sally to come with me. It was fun, a nice break and I learned some things that will hopefully help.
While we were checking out the vendors we found these amazing posters of Book of Mormon heros. I had to buy a couple and I am totally excited to get them framed and hung up in the boys rooms.

It turns out that Jason's sisters husband's brother is the artist. (I know....I know...) They sent some over to Jason's parents in Germany and the members over there loved them too.
If you want to see more of them go to www.realheroposters.com, they are pretty cool!

Attempt...

I realize I haven't blogged for a while. I think my problem is that there has been NOTHING exciting going on at my house. I haven't taken any pictures for a long time, what is wrong with me?? (this is not really a question...) I have been dealing with REALLY emotional children lately, I don't know what is going on with them. Someone is always crying at my house it's like they are all a bunch of girls..... On top of the crying, Luke has turned into a bully, he beats up Isaac and Noah daily. Aghh.... I obviously need some motherly help....maybe Super Nanny can find some time to visit the Miller home.....

Almost January!

It seems that December has come and almost gone and I didn't post at all this month. Yikes! So here is my month in a nutshell:
I got in a tiny wreck on the Monday before Christmas. The roads were slick and I took out a mail box and ran over some landscaping rocks. It ended up being no big deal, $150 bucks later and we were all done, car all fixed. It's funny, we thought we were going to be into it at least $500 so when it was all done and only cost $150 we felt like we won the lottery. Stupid....I know.
My birthday was on Tuesday, the girls in the neighborhood made me breakfast, it was awesome! They are so nice to do that for me!! I stayed home the rest of the day mostly because my car was in the shop! Jason took us out to dinner for my birthday. He got me an I Touch. We loaded Cars, Kung Fu Panda and WALLE on it, so now Luke can be entertained anywhere we go! Yipee!
My Mom came up and spent a couple days with us! Christmas was fabulous, they boys got tons of stuff and had fun playing with all their toys. They got sleds for Christmas and have loved playing in all the snow!
We took Luke to the Dr. on Friday, we think he had croup but was actually on the mend by the time we got him in to the Dr. He is doing much better!
Jason has the rest of the year off, it has been nice to have him home. I am not looking forward to life getting back to normal next week.....

Count down to Christmas!

Can you believe it is already December, where has the time gone?? I took the boys to their Dr's appointments today and they ended up taking the whole day. Isaac got 6 shots, poor little thing. I think he is going to be pretty sore tomorrow. Luke just got his flu shot, that was it. I took them to the park later this afternoon, I was hoping maybe if Isaac ran around a little it would help his legs out. He is so dramatic, so tomorrow should be interesting. I am almost done with my Christmas shopping. I did a bunch last Friday, I got up at 5 and hit all the stores. I love to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving!! Any ideas for good neighbor gifts?? I do the same thing every year and thought about changing it up this year. My house looks like a bomb hit it last night and I haven't been home all day to clean it up. Guess I should go do something today.....

I am thankful for Sunday, a day to relax and catch up on The 4400. We are on season 2 now, pretty good show.....

Things I am Thankful for Day 11 & 12

I am grateful I got a chance to hang out with my friends. I went to lunch and Twilight with Tracey & Kae on Friday and then on Saturday I got to go to breakfast and shopping with my friend Shelly! I haven't hung out with any of them in a long time so it was so great to see them!!
