Howdy ya'll! I haven't written anything for a long time. Sheesh! Well I can't believe summer is almost over. I think summer should last a lot longer than it does. I like fall, I just don't like the snow. The only day that it's nice is Christmas, and I can't believe it's gonna be that time again so soon.
Well it looks like we will be moving to Sandy next month, funny 'cause I said I'd never move back there. I have come to LOVE living in utah county, and when we can buy a house it will be here. I have mixed emotions about the move but all in all I have to remember it's temporary and it's going to help us get into our own house soon.
This summer was great! Beau's mom bought her kids a boat that they all share and the dock is straight down the street from us. So nice to go and be so close to home. We are sure gonna miss this house, but at the same time I won't miss the rent.
We went to California, Disneyland, St. George. The beach was the best part of Cali. I'm not a huge fan of Disneyland. I guess we should of waited until Isaac is older so he could go on more rides. It was however the CUTEST thing when he saw Mickey Mouse and got to take a picture with him. He said "Mom he doesn't talk, but he does on t.v., why?" Ummm? I wasn't quite sure how to explain that.
Oh...the best news ever!!! We finally got rid of the diapers!!! I thought that day would never come!!!! Everyone was right when he's was ready it would just happen, and I am so HAPPY it did.
Beau is good, he's looking into every option at the Prison. Sargent testing is coming up and they might do SWAT testing again. Also overtime might be picking up again after a long stretch of not having any at all. I'm grateful he has the job he does, and that he's not alone or on the streets with people losing their minds. his buddies from the academy have all been at least shot at and the thought of Beau doing that is too scary.
Well that's about it...still looking for a job if anyone knows of any suggestions, anything helps right know. Hope all of you are well and Granquists we will see you Sun. :)

To Good To Be True....

Wow....What a roller coaster it has been lately. I was reading my last entry and laughed because I put not only a jinx on me but a horrid, evil, black curse on us!! My job was GREAT. I loved it and thought it was going good, up until about early Feb. when Beau's sweet grandma passed away. We got home and have been sick with "Influenza" (went to the hospital twice) and now this cold that just won't go away it's now April for crying out loud!!! Not much later than that I was in an accident no big deal slide hit the barrier on Bangeter didn't hit anyone else thank goodness (in our recently purchased truck). Come to find out our insurance said we didn't have full coverage thanks to some air head girl that has messed up our policy multiple times and there's not a dang thing we can do about it! So five hundred dollars later and a partially fixed vehicle.....I got laid off. Not only did I get laid off the DAY AFTER MY BIRTHDAY, on my birthday my doctor called saying I had to have surgery. Surgery for what you ask..some freak growth in my intestine causing problems that had to come out. Icing on the mother friggin' cake!!!! Excuse me expressions but I am at a loss. I had court today to contest my ticket from the accident for "failure to maintain control" which is 112.00. I was informed that because I told the officer that I slid and he saw the flat tire and minimal damage ( could have been worse) that there was nothing I could do. I could go to court and was my time he said. And if I wanted to pay 70.00 more dollars to keep it off my record and take driving school. How the *#@!* am I going to pay for driving school let alone the ticket after all this stuff has happened? So it's not over yet.....Beau's check is being garnished for a dental bill we thought we paid and the rest our insurance covered. Why we pay them I DON'T KNOW!!!!! I really don't like to cry I'm 26 and have a four year old I need to be the strong mom and be tough...well today was not that day. I haven't cried that hard in a long time but if you call and ask I can pretend that's it going to be ok, so if anyone knows of a shelter that has room for 3 individuals (we are neat, and friendly) please let us know. It sounds funny now but it might be a reality sooner than we think. I hate to be so glum but if I don't say something now I will explode!!! Everyone is struggling and I know it's not just me and I don't want anyone to think oh pity me. I just thought what the hell happened if you read my last blog you'd see things were GREAT. WHAT HAPPENED??!!! Anyway thanks for listening and letting me get that of my chest. I hope nobody has to go through what we have been through these last few months. I really hope everyone is well and we need to have a huge family party to relieve this stress!! Best wishes to all.

Hi everyone it's been a really long time. I just started working ...at a Bakery in Provo. LOVE IT! I got really lucky at the perfect time. It's been hard to be away from Isaac (I've been at home since he was born), but it's great that Beau can stay home and spend that time with him with out me hovering over his shoulder. Things are good it's been a long time since it's been this good and I'm hoping it'll last. I finally see a light at the end of the tunnel with our debt and can't wait until we've gotten on our feet and saved enough for our own house. It'll be scary because of all the things that are going on right now with the world hopefully it'll get better.
I am how ever having an issue with my little boy using colorful language! Not my fault of course you now how guys talk and the way they talk at the prison! I am an angel always have been right mom! I'm afraid they kick him out of school when he goes if I can't get it under control. He's a good boy and sure knows how to make me laugh!!
This is super random but I am so glad the holidays are over. It's nice to be together as a family that time of year but that shouldn't mean we can't stay that way. Isaac is already understanding the presents part of Christmas and I want him to have them but I'm trying to teach him giving is way more important that receiving.
So for now I'm back off to the family and spending ever minute I can with them. I hope everyone is well. Oh and here's the questionnaire......

One word questions make me think you don't want to hear what I have to say because I can talk for a really really long time about nothing in particular just stuff that comes to the top of my head which happens a lot and well I guess I that not everyone has a lot of time to sit and listen to me talk and talk and talk about random things that come off the top of my head....... I'll stop! Later.
