We all DISLIKE Car Insurance at some point

Well in 2012 I didn't have the best of luck with my phone or my car...  I was in 2 accidents..  One was minor, but the other I totaled my car...  Yuck right? Well so much for accident forgiveness with Farmers...  Just got my renewal notice in the mail...  My car insurance is going from $160 a month to $270 a month!!!  Can this single mama catch a break!!!  Geesh...

So this weekend I will be car insurance shopping.  But its one of those things that you have to pay and they got you by the booty..

Anyone have a good company they like?? Or have any advice?  Is so leave a comment..  I know I have a select group since I don't want my family on here..

Anyways, going to spend my Friday doing taxes... another blah....  and then laundry and getting the house in tip top shape for the weekend.  I feel like I haven't had control since my parents were here.  Time to get back into routine for sure!!!  Then the reward will be scrapping if I still have minutes left!  LOL  Then I will be excited for the boys to arrive home Saturday morning for a fun play date with our friends the Spraggs!

Exciting visitor!!!!

My very good my friend Michelle from Sioux Falls South Dakota, will be coming into town spur the moment for a business trip. I'm excited that I get to pick her up from the airport and spend the evening with her! To top it off I even get to stay at the Butes.  yay me! It will be just what I needed. We will be able to laugh and have a great time over a bottle of wine!

Park time!

Night out...

what a wonderful night! It was much needed. My friend Kim and I went out on spur the moment and met up with some other great people.  it was a fun night and I laughed so hard. now I will go to sleep and rest my head and try and get re energized for tomorrow. The boys will arrive home at 7am. Not sure what our day will hold. I'm sure it will be laundry and Legos.

New River Weekend..

Saturday we woke up bright an early and went to New River to see the Sylvester family. Oh my gosh it was so much fun. I have never seem my kids so happy in such a long time. They played and played. Little fighting and I think it was truely the first time in MONTHS that I was able to relax. it was so nice and so wonderful to be surrounded by good friends who love us. it was 75 miles one way, but so worth it. The boys loved camping in the their new travel trailer and I got some good rest... Really what more could you ask for?

Church was amazing today. Lots of good information about how God can impact our lives. I continue to try and build my faith and knowledge about HIM. He is my guide. He gives me hope.

Blessings,

Jenny

wow where does the time go?????????????????

wow really 2008 since my last post???? well since then i have lost a job. got a job. laid off from a job and got a job.... get all that? nearly 3 years ago Jacob Graydon Hines was born.... hes now 3 and jackson is 6. curious to know if someone gets an update from this post... if so please comment...also anyone know how to change my main email on this thing???? that email is null and i need to change it....

Far too Long

So its been a LONNNNG time since I updated our blog. Not a whole lot new to report since the last update. But since Sarah demands it I will post it!!

Jackson: Well just coughed so hard before bed he threw up all over me. So that was so nice! LOL. Otherwise he is a very busy 2 1/2 year old. He loves to be outside, read books, help in the kitchen and just keep us on our toes. He will be moving up into the next room at school soon and he is very excited about that. He can't wait to be with his buddy Braeson again. Oh I failed to mention the most exciting part. He is potty trained!!! We wear a pull up at night but otherwise he is dry and naps and dry during the day. I could not be more relieved to have that done before the baby arrives!

Taylor: Jamie just came back from visiting her in SD. She is doing very well and that makes us both very happy. She seems to have adjusted well and is doing excellent in school. She will be down over Christmas we hope.

Jamie: Well he keeps busy as always. Always on the go doing this and that. He is still part time at the airport and shooting sports for the SPM. He really enjoys that and is looking forward to the SUNS new season. He hopes to get to shoot lots of the games. His Holiday portrait season is in full swing. Although not as busy as last year, he is still booking lots of sessions.

Me: Well I am just getting fat! This baby is growing like a week and I am almost 28 weeks. Maybe 29. I can't remember. But he was slow to move, but is now very active. My job is a job and we hope for something different once the baby arrives. But who knows. These past few weeks have gone better, but it is always a guessing game as to how the day/week will go.

Other than that we are trying to plan one last trip somewhere before the baby comes. Locally of course. No flying right now. So hopefully that can be put on the calender sooner than later. I have fallen into several of my friends trap and join face book. So you can always find me there too.

For now I will sign off. Hope anyone who stills reads this, has a great week!!
