just one of those days

so today was one of those days where you actually get the things you wanted done, done. well phil had his friend alii spend the night last night, they went to bed about midnight and woke up at 7:30. i got up to make breakfast, chris got up everyone ate. chris did his school work while we all got ready.

first, we had to go and pay bills. i hate doing it online, cause i hate having to wait for it to come out. i pay cash, have the receipt, and peace of mind knowing that its taken care of. so we left and paid the phones (house and cell), water, and gas.

second, we had to go to leslie and get the water tested for the pool. everything is great, all we had to add was 2 cups of acid. so i was happy about that. so then we had to go across town to pay the house phone.

third, we had to go to sports authority. last night we registered phil for baseball, so we had to go and look to see what he needs and what he wants. we found some great bats, but chris wants to hold off, cause he wants to go and look at big 5 and see what they have there.

we go and pick des up her friends and go and have lunch. can you believe this, i got alot done in just a manner of a couple of hours.

finally we get home and we clean up the pool. chris bought me a new chlorine dispenser, cause his friend busted up my other one. so now i have this new killer whale one and it is so cute.

so now i am relaxing and deciding on what i am going to wear to go out tonight. my sis in law is coming and we are going dancing.

San Antonio SPURS !!!!

So I LOVE the Spurs. This happens to be the only Texas team that I actually like and will cheer for. So they played the Lakers last night in San Antonio and they won 112 to 111. I told Chris that I want to see them when they go to LA. I went to their web site and found out they will be in LA on the 25th of this month. I told him that he could get me this for my birthday, but he said no cause it wasn't to much of a notice. So I will watch them from afar, see them on TV when ever they play, and hopefully one day go and see them. I just love Manu Ginobili, Robert Horry, Tony Parker and Tm Duncan.
So I figured since I couldn't go to the game maybe he should get me a jersey instead. So we will see what happens.
GO SPURS!!!!

Family History

So I have decided to look up my family history. I am so loving it. I have found out so many different things. For starters, I have discovered that there are apparently members of the Church on all sides of the family. I was looking up my father and grandparents on all sides (step and biological). I find out that several members of the family have be baptized. On Chris's side it said that his real grandfather, (that we named Phil after), is already done. It shows that someone went and took the whole family back in 91'. I am happy but a little sad at the same time. I glad that someone has gone and taken their names, but then at the same time I was wanting to do it.

So then I go and look at my family and discover that my older brother who passed before I was born and an uncle (mother's younger brother) who passed as a baby were also done. I called my sister to inform her that someone on our mother side of the family has to be LDS other than me and Phil.

I email my mother, cause this seems to be the only way I catch her and ask her to please call me so that way I can ask her who is doing this.

She calls me later and I am discussing this with her and she has no idea who it could be. I want to know so that way we could get together and I can have my family history. So my search is on to find out who the members are. I told Chris that it was meant to be for me to be a member of the Church. That we have it from both sides, he is next.
