Man I am not good at this blogging thing. It has been a month since I have put anything on here. I guess I should catch up. School has started and McNeil is now in junior high. I dropped him off an the first day and asked him if he wanted me to come in with him. He said no that he would be fine. Until he looked and saw my face. Then he said "unless you want to come in" I think he thought he hurt my feelings. But I let him go in by himself. I felt like I had just dropped my baby off into a den of wolves. I cried all morning. I am such a baby. I know he is going to do great. Brenda and I are home alone now and we have a great time. We mostly just play and take naps. She has two teeth and really would like to crawl. I am not ready for that. She can get wherever she wants to go by rolling and scooting across the floor. She is growing way to fast. Pretty soon I will be dropping her off to junior high. That day will probably kill me!

Brandon has started coaching football and McNeil is playing even though the doctor suggested that he didn't. Hopefully his foot will hold up and he won't injure himself again. Brandon assures me that by taping his foot before the games he will be fine. Heres hoping! I am looking for some type of work that I can do at home. We would just like to pay off some debt and start a food storage. But I dont' want to leave my baby after waiting all this time for her. I am really enjoying her and if you saw my house you would know how much. I have not seriously cleaned since she was born. We all have clean clothes and food to eat but that is about it. She is just way to fun! I want to wish Kaitlyn well, and I hope she has a good time in college. I am so proud of her. She is awesome! I am going to sure miss her though! Good luck Kaitlyn!

Tah Tah for now!

Hey, today is July 31st. I wish there was something more to write about but our life is pretty boring. Things don't change much. Except Brenda changes daily. She learns something new everyday she is so cute. If you growl at her she will growl back at you. She is a genius I tell ya!

Cant' wait for the next brilliant thing she does. McNeil is pretty smart too. Today He learned that if you spit into the airconditioner it will blow your spit back at you. He also learned how to clean the carpet. School really needs to start. Man I have brilliant kids! All kidding aside a love my kids with all my heart and I am so grateful to have them. I thank Heavenly Father everyday for them.

Wow. what a day. The 24th of July, Pioneer day. A day off for some but not for most. Mom came and picked us up at about 10:30 and she watched Brenda while I took a nap. Bless her! I have not slept for a few days and she took pity on me. McNeil spent that time in Grandma's pool, and since I was napping I failed my motherly duty and he has a horribly sunburned face. At least he was wearing a shirt. He did have a good time. Melisa and the kids came over along with her mom, dad, and her sisters. It is always good to see them. They are awesome people.
we had good food and good conversation. No fireworks but that is ok by me! Well Happy Pioneer day to all of you.

Final Millet Family go-cart races


Well we are heading to Tremonton this weekend for the final Millet Family Races. Val and Becky are moving to Brigham City. It will be fun and sad at the same time. McNeil is sure going to miss the go-carts along with the rest of us. But at least we are getting out of it while everyone still has all their limbs attached. Now it is on to the next adventure for Val and Becky. McNeil is finally going to take his friend Justus with us for the weekend. He is very excited! They should have a good time. I just wish the camcorder was working so that I could film the last race. I hope Val and Becky know how much we appreciate all that they do for us. Especially for their grandkids. McNeil sure loves hanging out with Grandpa and Becky sure puts a lot of effort into those tea parties. You guys are awesome. So the go-carts will be missed but the dust and dirt in my teeth will not. Tah tah for now.

The year is 2008

This is the beginning of the Millet family blog. I have never done this before so bear with me.
We sure got a surprise last May when I thought I was getting sick from a medication I was taking for my back . On a whim I decided to buy a pregnancy test at the dollar store. Knowing full well that it was going to be negative. When it came out positive my first thought was well it came from the dollar store it probably is not accurate. I called Brandon and he advised me to go and purchase a "real one". Two more positives and a doctor visit later I still was not convinced. I kept waiting to wake up. But on January 8, we added a special little girl to our family. Brenda June Millet. We are so glad that she is here. Her older brother McNeil thinks that she is pretty neat. She really likes him too! It has been interesting getting back into the baby thing after 12 years but not as hard as I thought it would be. Brandon is still working in the garage door business and I am still at home wishing I could find a job I can do at home. We are all doing great!
