The kids are back in school and the house is silent for 8 hours a day. I have only been able to enjoy this silence for small moments because it is the busiest time of year for our family. I am in the throws of running the soccer program. Do not ask me why I am still doing this, because I do no have any children playing soccer. Yet, I am handling all the registrations, checkbook and ordering of t-shirts (complete with preparing sponsor art), go figure!!!! Scouts is in full swing and we have our recruitment meeting tonight. I have spent all day preparing for that and just got finished in time to walk down to get the mail (my 2 mile walk for the day) and walk the boys home from the bus.
All four boys are playing football this year, so the calendar looks like a flight plan for NASA. Mitchell and Stockton both have games today in Park City which is about 45 miles from our house. Their games will typically be on Monday, so I have had to rearrange my work schedule because of the two days that I work, Monday is one of them (of course).
It is also hunting season, so I will soon be a hunting widow while Jared scours the mountains looking for an elk to shoot with his bow. This is usually the only time he takes vacation, so he really enjoys being out in the mountains doing what he likes best.
Tomorrow I hope to truly enjoy the sounds of silence as I sit on the couch and eat bon-bons while watching a chic flick (if you actually believe this, then you don't have four kids), LOL!!!!
