2011 Family Newsletter

Nathan Traveled over 130 Days for work, Ran a huge convention for his company, went on a family Vacation to Utah Arches National Park, Moved the house without a moving service, got a fish tank for his birthday, works his butt off for the family. And takes good care of us!

Devanie got the old house rented out the market was too hard to sell in, suffered a kidney stone passing, volunteered at the kids school for the Halloween Party and dressed up as Mrs Clause, drove the kids to school 2-3 times a day for 3 months while we were waiting to occupy our new house 10 minutes from the old. Her dear Grandma Leavitt passed away this year and the family took a trip to her funeral. Her oldest niece got married and the family got to take a trip to Idaho to be there.

Hailey has had 2 Orchestra Concerts she is playing viola and has moved on to Jr High. She has read a lot of really big books and is learning responsibility at school with 7 classes, lots of homework from each and working on getting things turned in on time. this year is a learning year for all of us. She is in TSA Technology Student Association and loves it. working with robots, and technology. her Christmas gift was a Lego Mindstorm robot. that and a comfy chair to read books in. 2 of her favorite things. she is in Young Women’s now and enjoys the girls at church a lot.

Sierra is fitting in at school well, she is fun loving and very outgoing. She loves to get a crafty idea and expand on it. She loves to go shopping for whatever project items she needs and works hard to earn money to do her own stuff. She has been a great help around the house and a wonderful babysitter for us. she made it to her school spelling bee and was top 20 in the Bee itself. she did well. Her many many hours of reading books has been paying off.

Zach is reading at the top of his class. He loves Legos. Loved having mom do his Halloween Party, Likes to play Lego computer and XBox games. He has 1/2 day kindergarten so we still get to spend a lot of time with him. He is getting a little more adventurous with foods but will gaga and puke if he really doesn’t like it or the texture. kinda silly, but that’s just how he is. He got the biggest bedroom in the new house because his train tracks and Legos take up so much room when he is playing. it’s a great space for his little mind to go on great adventures.

Aurora Stays home with Mommy, we watch TV, play birdie, puppy, Ipad games, shop, cuddle, snack, and chill together a lot. she loves little animals and loves pretending to be an animal. She is very active and loves being on the move. Her favorite place to go is Kangaroo Zoo. her second fav is chuck e cheese. kangaroo Zoo has a lot of blow up inflatable bouncy houses and big slides. she loves racing thru adventure areas like that. She is still working on reading we have a program called head sprout we try to do 2-3 lessons a week on when things aren’t crazy. with the new house her own room, lots of busy stuff with Mom reading is coming along slowly, but then again she is only 4. she is learning a lot on mommys ipad.

We are moving

In case you haven’t heard we are moving again this month. I have been driving the kids to the new school for the past 3 months it’s been crazy I live in my car… with jr high, elem and 1/2 day kindergarten. I’m looking forward to the move Nathan will have a few days off work and thanksgiving break to move things to the new house. NOTHING IS PACKED. We are doing 1 day at a time. 2-3 rooms a day for 9 days. Paced, planned and organized. guess we will see. It’s a model home 3 story compared to the rambler we have been in. Same SQ ft. bigger back yard. no private cul du sac, closer to some of my good friends and closer to freeway access yet far enough away! we finished the basement and paid to put the kitchenette in the basement and some other minor upgrade recessed lighting etc.

Nathan Hates Traveling but he has traveled more than 4 months out of the year this year. it’s been hard for him he has had one of his hardest year this year. Including chest pains, constant head and stomach problems, sicknesses, and bladder infections. He has had his quarterly depression swings but they have been worse to a point he has contemplated suicide or leaving us but regrets them later because he knows it’s the depression and stress of work talking, not who he really is. Sweet, kind, generous, loving, giving and just an all around GREAT person. he is so good and beats himself up inside so bad it’s killing him. He is amazing though. even thru the worst times he is thinking of us, how much he loves us and how important family is to him. Finances have been tighter and worse than ever this year. It will only get worse with a move of location and Christmas around the corner. I hope he makes it thru he could use prayers, blessings and extra help with the move but won’t say anything to anyone.

other things. I still sell Cookie Lee Jewelry http://www.cookielee.biz/dev I love doing it. its a great outlet from day in day out kids, cars, messes. It’s my thing! every woman needs a THING. and for some blogging/journaling/scrapbooking is good enough. but I am to social to sit and type all day I need interaction with people! Real live people.

I had an amazing event yesterday only amazing in a way that The police were called on ME for no good reason. The people running the event were naive quick to judge and wouldn’t communicate with me directly. It was a very slow dead event it was a fundraiser for organ and tissue donation….that in and of itself not and exciting thing to be at. but still I did it. I even helped get 10 vendors of about 36 vendors at the event. I was part of the committee putting it together. but they banned me by the end of the night for trying to pay the $1 admissions for anyone that couldn’t pay the $1 required donation included a raffle ticket from 4:30-6:30. They made me put a $40 DEPOSIT in the till in case someone didn’t pay. and I had them mark tally sheets if no one paid. I would pay their $1. The cashier who witnessed the whole event and watching them take my deposit and flip up my signs came with me to check tally sheets. one of the 5 committee members saw her getting my deposit out and told the committee members instead of asking me what I was doing.. and instead of talking to me called the POLICE and told them I was stealing and lying. There was still a ton of $1 bills in there till and even another $20 but Jillian only gave me my my $40 I didn’t steal and there was no need to take and $1s out cus no one but vendors packing up to leave passed thru the doors. So they did many things wrong at this event and could get into a lot of trouble if I take them to court. They have embarrassed me in front of some of my own vendors, slandered me on facebook, and put a POLICE REPORT out on me that STAYS on your Criminal record FOREVER. Just because I was helping with their event. I helped by getting 10 vendors, Advertising all over KSL classifieds, Facebook, emails to my vendors, and word of mouth Like they required vendors to do. I tried to pay for people to get into their event. There was an entire huge boutique next door with 50 vendors that had FREE admission. They did everything wrong from the beginning to the bitter end. They charged some vendors $120.00 and others $75 and a $50 donation item for their raffle. They won’t refund the overpaying vendors or help vendors stuck in dark hallways a nicer location where there was room closer to the door where I have had events before and put people in the empty space.

It’s been a Crazy weekend. Nathan went to Mexico, came home I saw him for a couple hours then had this all day event that turned out trashy. but I still did an amazing day of sales with the vendors and few people that actually came in…amazingly some people showed up and I new a bunch of them they probably read my ads and came to see what was going on. I saw Nathan for a few more hours and then he had to make another trip to Las Vegas he has traveled over 1/3 of this year we are going on about 120+ days apart this year. that was easy at the beginning of the year but has really bee wearing on me this past 2 months. I miss him and need him.

Hailey is in Young Womans and became a young woman a month ago. We have had so much trouble with her remembering her homework and school work and getting it turned in. She now has 7 teachers and it’s even harder. Nathan and I have tried everything to get her to remember to turn in her stuff. we have made her list her classes and projects everyday for us to see. we have micromanaged the computer system and grades and even talking with all of her teachers a ton. we tried taking things away, we tried paying, we tried rewarding, we tried everything. We finally gave up and let her remember her stuff herself. it takes a lot less stress off me thinking Nathan hates me for not getting Hailey on task all the time. I felt like I was failing. It’s not me it’s Hailey’s personality. she wants things perfect or completed before they are turned in and if they are not then she just doesn’t submit it. We have had many conversations with her to just turn it in a 60% is better than a 0 that was about 1 1/2 months ago. She now has 2 F’s in the 1st week of the 2nd term. Nathan and I decided she needs to see herself failing to see how much more she needs to get her act in gear. She is sooo flippin smart she can get it done and when she does she is 100% or more. but she forgets things slips up and messes a lot of stuff up all the time. I have been to the counselor to her quarterly conference and we still left stuff up to her and started getting her a little more organized.
She plays the Viola and plays it well, she likes the after school Technology Student Association class and all the robotic stuff they get to do. She gets to do field trips with that group and thrives on that. She loves scientific things like table of elements and so on.

Sierra has had moods of her own so many she is my mood swinger, but a much bigger help than Hailey. It’s nice that remembers her work. She like to to tattle tale a lot. I’m working on that with her. She gets great grades. she is popular in her class and quite a social butterfly like her mom ;) Sierra loves horses and playing on ipads and ipods. she loves lava lamps right now and wants a collection. she loves origami and does some amazing work with paper. She has talent. she likes dancing. someday I will have the energy to try another extra curricular activity with her. who knows…she may want to Irish dance later in her life, or something else. She gets a crafty idea in her head and goes on and on and on and on about it until we go to the $1 store and make it a reality. Still a cutie when she wants to be and can be pretty funny.

Zach 1/2 day Kindergarten. He has been reading so well lately he’s really good at getting me to help him with his homework and get it turned in. He never puts his laundry in the laundry basket 1 foot from where he drops his dirty clothes. He never puts his shoes in the shoe baskets in his bedroom or by the door as we walk in. He’s Very Picky about foods new foods textures. He pukes when he doesn’t like something. He is as addicted to gaming and computers and TV as everyone else in the family is. He wears his emotions on his shoulder. you can see how he’s feeling by his expressions and when he gets hurt he needs a kiss on it and it’s all better :) I love that! If his feelings get hurt and he’s crying I have to get an apology out of whoever did it to get him to stop crying but that always helps him. He was up at 6AM with his Sunday cloths on today :)

Aurora Preschool Aurora has good days and bad days good moments and bad moments. we had to revert to diapers at night she keeps peeing the bed. We had a long time there with only a couple. I don’t know what to do except try again at 5. she could have a small bladder like Hailey did. same problem. she was out at 4 1/2 though at night so I crossed my fingers for Aurora gave it a good whirl and with the move and driving everyday its too hard to wash the sheets everyday. and have a clean mattress cover by evening. She is doing a mini Preschool with me and my friend Jenni and a boy her age 8 hours apart. They have so much fun together,. They are so cute. except when they are not. but usually one will have a bad day and it will switch the other will have an opposite bad day. between the 2 and Jenni and i we have a lot of moments we could have done without. Aurora loves stuffed animals, mini figure toys, and movies, ipad games and computers. She is really good at entertaining herself. It’s taken time but I can usually get an extra 1/2 hr of sleep in the am if I give her breakfast and a movie or Ipad to play with ;) they all get up too early! but it’s goof cuz we have to all be out the door by 7:30 am. She loves to color.

Jazzy the dog….
we got a puppuy a super cute puggle for chistmas. we did our best to keep up with her. what she really needed was another dog and we wouldn’t want to keep up with 2 dogs so we had to give her up after 8 weeks 1 on 1 in home training and lots of cute tricks we taught her loads of love toys and gear we had to give her up so Jenni took her on. if things don’t work out we will sell her she was too expensive to just give away. microchipping, spay, medical exams, licensing, food, treats, toys and messes all the time, she would chew the kids toys. With the new house, move, and how she likes to BOLT out the door or fence it’s been a struggle. she was cute and learned great tricks but we still get to see her, she knows us and she has a new friend Dexter. a silver and black Schnauzer.

That’s us and our life in a nutshell.

Hailey 12 years is writing a book this is how it starts

TITLE?

Chapter one: Let the journey begin!

With a shriek of pure terror, I woke from my recurring nightmare. A shadowy figure in a billowing black cloak had chanted eerily: The fifteen approaches! The fifteen approaches! I sensed the familiar cold sweat beading on my brow and moistening my soft blue pillow. I once again became overwhelmed with horror as the terrifying images flashed past my vision. The terror enveloped me like a cold, dreary blanket, and it wouldn’t let go. Slowly, the door creaked and groaned as it started to slowly inch open. I wanted to scream again. The lights flashed on, blinding me.
“Surprise!!!” Mom, Evelyn, Rose, Natasha and my sisters shouted, wheeling in a huge, blue, rectangular cake with “Happy 15th, Lumina!” scrawled across the top in white icing. Celia, my bronze-haired older sister with hazel eyes like mine looked at me with one of those expressions. She gave me a huge grin, which I knew meant trouble.
“Pillow fight!” She declared and rushed me. That’s when I noticed that everyone, even Mom, had brought in an old pillow. Celia charged me headlong and launched her feather pillow at me.
By the time my party was over, my room was filled with human geese and rabid frosting monsters. I began combing feathers and cotton out of my long, wavy, light brown hair, and asked Mom if we could use my auburn haired, blue eyed younger sister May’s huge room for a sleepover. Mom did agree, (eventually.)
I thanked her and spotted my blond friend, Rosalie. I told her the news and we did our little handshake. I found our redhead friend Evelyn next. “I’ll be glad to get away from my Brother for a night, Lulu.” She said with a wink. All four of us knew that I had a huge crush on her older brother. Then I saw Natasha eating her second slice of cake. She turned around and carelessly flicked her shoulder-length dark brown hair. She lazily put her hand in her pocket and accepted my invitation. We all got ready and chose a spot in May’s mansion of a room.
I woke up to find my friends gone. I decided I’d check the kitchen. When I stepped out of my room, I was shocked to find that I’d stumbled onto a rocky ledge by a deep black abyss! As I stared down into the yawning pit, I could just make out a familiar ruffling sound…
“The fifteen has arrived! Delve into the precipice, or all will be lost when you wake!”

Summer Festivities!

Se we found out that we are MOVING! not far from where we are now. So this summer I spent a lot of time cleaning the house and showing it, I interviewed 15 Real Estate Agents and couldn’t choose one it just wasn’t worth the 3% or 6% commission in this low market to have someone else sell the house. So i cleaned it for days and days showed it to many people and to some of my freinds. one of my good neighbors needs a bigger house so it loks like they will be taking over the payments on the house. they own some of the properties around here and manage properties themselves. They are super excited to make the move. we love the house and will miss it, but it will still be ours. the new house is a lot more like the one in Connecticut, but we have different things now and figuring out which room gets what items is already a challenge. But it is still super exciting for get a clean fresh start on a new house!

The move won’t be til November and it will probably take us that long to pack everything up!

In the meantime this summer I have been figuring out kids schedules, getting birth certificates, immunization records, schools to contact each other, to send records, and driving all over getting it figured out. We had to get the “Proof of residency notarized since we cannot move into the new house yet, but we didn’t want to start in a year round school spend a month getting used to the old school and teachers just to start over again. So I will be driving the kids to school the whole time we are trying to move so for 3 month I will be driving 1 hr 30 minutes+ just to get the kids to and from school EVERY DAY! with a 1/2 day kindergartener it makes it even harder. . . . .ugh.

Lets see. Trips. We got Season Passes to Lagoon and have been making LOTS of trips to play there with family and friends it’s been busy and fun for the kids, but hard for me still, Aurora is still 4 and wanders off a little too much for my liking…… So I get freaked out at least 1 time each time I go to lagoon and many times I and taking them on my own, it’s just not easy. We finally got Hailey to ride a BIG roller coaster we got her on “Colossal” “fire-dragon, Jet Star, &The Bat.

I got to go to Las Vegas with my friend Jenni for a Cookie Lee Jewelry Convention. it was super fun!

Nathan has been traveling a lot but we got to have him for a few weeks in August. we got to go up to Idaho for my oldest niece Ambers Wedding. We got to stay in a hotel and swim and go to the reception really cool and fun with Yellow and grey decorations, Christmas icicle lights supplied by us and 6 Bolts of tulle, it was a fun scansion for all of us. plus I got to see a LOT of my family. we stayed and extra day and helped my mom clean up one of her rental properties. It took 4 hours just to pick up the junk but we had fun. we pulled out 5 sofas/recliners, 2 huge TV sets, mattresses, and abut 20 bags of trash. we cleaned up mounds of cobwebs on the ceilings and walls. it was quite the mess. My mom needs to sell the house so she doesn’t have to bother with renters anymore!

We went to Grandma Leavitt’s Funeral early in the Summer ALL of my siblings were able to make it for that. Super sad. But good she is finally reunited with Grandpa again.


Hailey Graduated from Elementary and goes to Jr High!! She is so little! see her compared to her piers…

I heard the secret to the diets you see flashing on the internet ads now is diet 2 days, then eat regular, diet 2 days then eat regular diet 2 days then eat regular on 2 off 1 on 2 off 1 get the point? It gets your body to the point you are at starvation mode, but then you feed it and it realizes it doesn’t need to store the fat. sounds like its working great for many people.

May 28

Just got done watching 3 episodes of the secret millionaire. Makes me cry. And want to volunteer all the time…..not sure how old they were. Reminds me of my mom and all the good she has done for people in need. And the homeless guys I have been handing $10.00 to lately.

May 14
There was mention of Hailey’s School in the Newspaper for coming in 1st place at the Lagoon Physics day with over 7,000 students from 4 states participating!!! Her team of 2 came in 2nd in her school. last year she came in first what a brainer just like her DAD and MOM!

May 12
So… It was milk & dairy causing Sierra to go deaf. hoping to get things cleared up. She has to claim that she has a “Disability” at school lunches to prove she can have juice instead of milk it cannot just be an allergy with a note from the doctor. without a note she has to pay the 30 cents for juice. Ugh. what congressman were we paying too much to make up that law?

Ugh. what congressman were we paying too much to make up that law?

Looks like I was allergic to a lot. I was close on a lot of them, but really the pointed out Oranges/citrus, which I new and Soy, which says I am allergic but doesn’t bother me but shocked me I’d have to be on a water diet since soy in in almost everything :) and close on eggs and Peanut butter :) ya yikes, but it doesn’t stop me from eating any. depends on ripeness of some.

The Garden is looking good
Peas, carrots, cilantro, tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries, onions

So allergy testing results. Aurora – Nothing(yet) Zach-Peanut….(we knew & have known) Sierra MILK & Corn….(she had pizza and ice cream tonight and her ears started popping and hurting again)…. Me SOY & Oranges, walnut, watermelon, avocado & an aversion to fish oil verging on allergic to peanut and something else(?). Hailey – untested – That brings my list of meal ideas for the fam of 6 way down.

Got a call from my visiting teaching rep and turnied in that I contacted 2 of my ladies instead of 3.
Shoot high cholesterol to add to my woes. still feeding Sierra Steroids for her ear hearing trouble but they didn’t make enough to last the 2 weeks so we will have ti get a refill on that. I was able to stop by stacys and make a scentsy trade today too. WOW! and washed all the rugs in the car yesterday and reinstalled them today.
