5 years

Wow how time flys by...As I was sitting here today realizing I need to get the rest of the kids Halloween costumes done it dawned on me....

5 years ago.....I was teaching the sunbeams in primary
5 years ago....I made carmel apples for my primary class
5 years ago...My teaching partner Laura Chapman decided it would be fun to tell Jim I thought he was 'hot'
5 years ago....I took the carmel apples around and drove around Jim's block several times cuz I was embarrassed that he knew I thought he was hot...until I saw his dad (RJ) outside
5 years ago...I jumped out of the car and ran the apples to RJ to give to Patrick... he wouldn't take them he wanted me to give them to Patrick
Now....I think RJ wasn't wanting me to give them to Patrick but rather give them to Jim
5 years ago....I spent 3 hours in front of Kathy & RJ's house talking to Jim
5 years ago...At enrichment night Jim's Mom Kathy said "thanks for trying"
5 years ago...I went "huh trying for what" and it hit me...she thought I was trying to pick up on her son! Well dang if she thought that was trying I will show her!
Now...I think Kathy really new that I was not a girl that was going to take "aww shucks thanks for trying..."
5 years ago...As soon as I got home from enrichment night I picked up the phone and called Jim we talked for 5 hours!!
Now...boy am I glad that Kathy challenged me and RJ wouldn't take the apples
5 years ago...Jim & I went on our first "official" date a Lehi HS football game to watch RJ ref
Now...laughing hysterically because it wasn't that cold and both Jim and I were wearing turtlenecks...hummm wonder why????
5 years ago...I met the man of my dreams, my prince charming, my hero, my love, my world, my heart, my soul, MY EVERYTHING
Now....And all be darn after all we have been thru we are still together and in love
5 years ago...I was so happy and grateful
Now...I am still happy and even happier and so much more grateful
5 years ago....I met my husband
5 years ago...I learned what true love really is
Now..I know what true love is and I AM SO HAPPY I HAVE IT!
5 years ago.....My world became complete

I just want to tell my wonderful amazing incredible husband.....I LOVE YOU! You are my hero, my rock, my strength, my EVERYTHING I don't know what I would do without you...

Thank you for all you do you are AMAZING!

H1N1 ugh.....

H1N1 aka the swine flu hit the Walker house last week of course while I was in Denver. Darrien came down with it last Tuesday Oct. 13th so Jim took him to the Dr and sure as crap he tested positive....Of course I find out and feel helpless because I am so far away. Well they survived but barely until I got home on Thursday night to find Jim sick as a dog in bed. Poor baby I sware he looked so miserable. Then Aubrey got it Friday, then Connor Saturday then CJ Sunday and Patrick Sunday night...so needless to say it has been an insane couple of weeks but what's new really? Just another day in the Walker House.

We are finally getting back in the swing of things Darrien and Connor were able to go back to school Thursday and Aubrey went back today..Jim was finally able to go back to work today since it is so contagious they didn't want him near the ambulance geez the nerve...just kidding lol at least he was able to get some much needed R&R. I am crossing my fingers that all the kids will all be at school bright and early Monday morning or else Mom might just have a breakdown..........ok another one hehe

On a brighter note guess what????? I AM THE ONLY ONE NOT SICK!!!! Seriously how many times in my life have I been able to say that??? Umm Never!! So ya I am bragging that for once I didn't get it!!!!!

Take that you nasty swine flu!!!!!!!

(ok really i don't want to get sick this is purely for your reading enjoyment so if I get hit w/it ten times worse i will know i should have just kept my mouth shut...swine flu coodies please don't curse me please pretty pretty please...im begging..pleading...)

Oh and if I never have to use another can of lysol or clorox wipe in my life I will be happy....
