The Carter Family

Okay, so almost 3 months ago, due to the persistent nagging of my wonderful mother-in-law, I decided to attempt to join the blogging world as well as the 21st century. Resulting in this sad page. Somehow at that time I was delusional enough to believe that once summer was over and school began again I would actually achieve the ever-coveted status of "working schedule" with my children. Like I said -I was deluded! I somehow had envisions of children in school, and hours of free time in which I would find myself at the computer updating my quicken as well as my blog.
Even more visions of grandeur, I dreamed I would become a truly note-worthy Mormon mom. Or as I like to refer to her as "mother superior." If you are not familiar with the Mormon culture, mother superior is the ideal mother that actually keeps scrapbooks up to date. She also volunteers at her child's school on a regular basis and actually grinds up and uses her wheat while rotating my complete year of food storage. She achieves all of this while keeping herself in tip-top shape while wearing meticulous clothing and surprisingly uncomfortable shoes. Well, when it comes to me being classified as a mother superior, as Jake would put it I am either a "newb", or have "epically failed." (these are both World of Warcraft terms- which he probably doesn't want to admit to playing- but as the WoW vocubulary has began to come out of Tallie's mouth- he's day of reckoning has come! )
So the point to all this rambling, if you have found my blog.. be patient- it is very much a work in progress. (I keep bribing people to help me make it look decent and one day the generic slideshow of sunsets might transform to a slideshow of my children in hawaii in the sunset... just keep your fingers crossed!)
