Sam just finished up his second semester at the BY. He is really loving it. It's hard to get back in the swimg of things but he's has done well. He has turned out to be quit the anatomy student and they have asked him to TA for his second semester in a row now. We're so proud of our little anatomy nerd. ;)
We finally moved into our own house the end of July. We all feel so much better being settled.
I start school on the 24th. I've decided that while we are poor and out of our minds anyway...I was going to do something I have always wanted to do. I'm going to cosmetology school.
I thought why not. It's BEAUTY school right? How hard can it be. I showed up for the regisration and they handed me an entrance exam. I laughed. They didn't. I had to take a test of 100 some odd questions to get into beauty school. Do you know how long it has been since I solved a problem like 7n-4r(8)=
A LONG TIME. Apparently lots of people fail it and I am a super star for only missing one. Who knew?
For Fathers day this year I bought Sam a tent. It was fairly out of character since I LOOOOOATHE camping. I mean a motel 6 with no room service is rough enough don't you think?
But as part of the gift I shocked even myslef by saying I would go camping...FOR 1 NIGHT.
So we just got back from out first ever Eastman Family camping trip.
Sam promised it was "easy camping" and there were no animals around where we were going.
Imagine my surprise as we pull up and I see this...
Ummmmm, I'm sorry...WHAT???
I followed the kids like a hawk picking up every skittle every piece of tiny trash. I was sure a bear was going to eat Lucy in her sleep since she had skittle slobber all over her pjs.

Why oh why am I not in a motorhome like those people to the side of us??
couldn't be trusted for 2 seconds. AMEN for pack and plays.
The river was very fun and only about 6 ft from where the car was.
I told the kids I would pull them across the river...
it got away from us a little and I was saving my children from flowing down stream before I knew it. (Sam was standing on the side laughing and yelling as both the kids were SCREAMING their heads off)
Mom, I have to pee...like NOW!!!
jammies and smores...
Bed time...which was really
deflating mattresses, bathroom trips, growing pains, noises and not much sleep.
Sam kept telling me there was NOTHING to worry about. But when he made me wash off my smelly lotion and made Henry sleep on the inside of the tent I came apart. Nothing to worry about??? For the love a bear is going to eat us all.
Sophie then proceeded to stand up and announce she was going home!!!

But my kids think I am "so awesomest" cause I know how to start the fire and save them in the river. That's all the matters. Mission accomplished
