Correction

My Mom was reading the next post and she realized I did not explain how I almost ran over Bram, well I did because he was messing with the tires so when the truck started moving........ well thats all. Sorry if you were confused.

Catch Up Time!

Where to begin?? I don't know! [We moved into the house July 3, that was the first night there. Well maybe I should start with the 4th. ]

We did not do much, spent the whole day moving, went to Applebees and saw 2 tiny fireworks, nothing like the Stadium of Fire. It was not a very big day. We all missed being with cousins. We did read the Declaration for FHE on Monday though.....

Sunday was the last day with our old ward. Very sad. I almost cried thinking that I was leaving the ward and people I grew up with. Nine years is a long time. But I got through it with no tears, mostly because all my friends were like " Kat, don't cry." In Young Women's we were having a little testimony and my friend stood up and said that she was going to miss me and I just almost broke down and cried. I am getting a little teary thinking about it, excuse me for a moment.......... Okay I am done.

Wednesday was the last mutual with them and that was because they were doing a service project and cleaning our old house. I cried there. I couldn't help myself. And the older girls who use to babysit me were telling me all these stories about when I was little. I was just so Sad. I just am going to miss them, even though I will see them, and hang out, it just won't be the same. I can't just walk to their house if I wanted to. Okay, you don't want to here me cry so I will move on to a different part of the week.

We spent the whole last week cleaning. And cleaning. Did I mention we cleaned? It actually was not that bad. Well I got lucky Thursday and Friday I went places with friends and went swimming. Then on Saturday Mom, Dad, and Asher and Rhys went to the Calders to finish the clean-up and I got to stay home with Ari and Bram. And I am very thankful that I did not have to go, but I had a very boring day without any good books. And there wasn't much to do. Oh well.

Sunday was the first Sunday with Cortina First. I was super nervous, this was not just my cousins ward in which I knew at least them. I did not know anyone. But it was okay and I think I am going to like my Young Women leaders.

So that is pretty much everything. There is two more things. We did not have water from Thursday or Friday to Tuesday. That was miserable!! Its horrible, we lived on about 15 gallons of water a day. Which is not that much for a family of 7. Well, it was a good learning experience that I can look back and learn from it, not any time soon.

And the second thing is, I almost ran over Bram, yes, it was horrible. Let me explain. It was on the 4th and we were about to go to Applebees. And I got in the Uhaul and was pretending to drive. Now I know you have to push the brake to move the thing into drive, [thats a different story] and I was showing the boys, something happened and it got stuck and started rolling down the driveway. I opened the door and Dad was yelling "The brakes, the brakes!!" So I slammed on the brakes, got out of the car and hugged Dad. He told me that I almost run over Bram and I started crying and laughing, I couldn't stop. I got in the other car and just sat there. And my contact was coming out and I did not have solution to clean it with or a container to out it in because we were at the Calders. Well I did joke about it after we got out of Applebees. Because my Mom was saying what if I had not slammed on the brakes and it just rolled through into out neighbors backyard? That would be a nice way to meet your neighbors, " Hi, we just moved in and have crashed through your wall. Its nice to meet you."

But its all over and I can laugh about it and it will be fun to tell Bram. And Rhys and Asher were in the car to and their faces!!! LOL! Well, you are probably tired of this so I will stop now and post later. Bye!!

Moving!

I never realized what a chore moving is. The last time we moved it was during school and Mom did most of it. And the time before that, I probably made more trouble then help. But I am really excited to move. I just wished we were done with the cleaning and packing! I am sure everyone knows what I am talking about since most of you have probably moved once or twice:] But at least we have a place to go. Oh, I could just scream from excitement! the house is so cool! The kitchen is HUGE. It has double ovens and like 500 cupboards and it has a butlers pantry. And thats just the kitchen! I won't tell anymore so you will be forced to come and see it, meaning that after we are all settled in, you have to come visit! He he! But that is all for now!
