WHERE IS MY FAMILY??

It is too bad that all of you have become Facebook users and do not keep up with just a family blog. I am not very impressed with all this keeping up with everyone else but not concerned about family updates and coommunications.
The idea behind this was great but there was not very much participation. I was excited and used to check it several times a week.
Trina is married (9-2-10), we have had our week-end in Torrey and will be in Green River this next week-end. Green River will not be easy as my parents have issues. We have tried hard to resolve them but have had no success. I don't want to get old and be like they are....just don't want to put that kind of stress on my family.
Hope you are all doing well----kids are liking school and life is good. I appreciate you all for who you are and what you do. I am proud of all of you and of all my beautiful grandchildren. You make like worth living.

HELLLOOOOOO

Where are all you people?!?!?!?!!? mom you havent even been on in awhile. Step up your game here sisters!

Christmas 2009

Hello family! Yes I'm a bit slow on putting the Christmas pictures on here but I have been trying to wait on Mom and Trina to email me there's, ya right I have finally decided that if I wait on those two it will be summer before I can post them so I am gonna put on what I have and if given a miracle I ever get there pictures I will just have to add them later.
I hope everyone had a great holiday as always it is nice to have family to spend these days with. And thanks again Dennis for Christmas breakfast I'll be waiting til next year for your eggs benedict once again, gotta say they are good. Ok well that's all I have to say for now I just want to drop a quick note and post these pictures on here.

2009 OUT 2010 IN

Another year is coming to an end. We are so very lucky----so many people are struggling. I know you all are but hang in there and be strong---take one day at a time.....good health, great kids, awesome family----that is the greatest blessing anyone could have. Christmas was great and the kids were lots of fun with the games. The song deal got a bit intense but all ended well. I enjoyed our Christmas Eve dinner and our visiting on Christmas morning. After that I was a zombie---did absolutely nothing the rest of the day!!! I am so very proud of all of you and am looking forward to another year with the greatest kids and grandkids ever!!!

Thanksgiving 2009

Well family wherever you are.....Here are some of the pictures from Thanksgiving. It was a great day and it's always nice to have family around during the holidays and also to welcome our newest addition to the clan little Brody, he is so damn cute and I am so glad he is finally home with his Mom where he belongs. Speaking of my Sisters where are you? Now girls facebook is fine and dandy but you all know that if we don't post on here to we are going to have to hear it from our Mother Geez. It actually would be nice to see someone else posting on here ya know.
So life in my world is going alright I have had my struggles lately with job changes etc. but things are looking better and I will be ok. Just taking things one day at a time and trying not to let the crazy people get to me.
Ok so that's all for now I hope everyone is doing well. I love you all and I'm very grateful that I have such a terrific family.
Love
Suzy

Thankful We Are

Brody Neil Lierd made his appearance on November 1, 2009----Weston's 10th birthday! What are the odds? He was in NICU for almost three weeks but is home and doing well now. He is a cutie and a such a special addition to a GREAT family. We have so much to be thankful for and hopefully that is on everyone's mind this time of year. We have so much more than many people do and need to realize it and not take anything for granted. You are a great bunch, fun to be around and hard workers. I am very proud of each and everyone of you. My grandchildren are the best of course---handsome, smart, beautiful and all around AWESOME. I wouldn't trade any of you!!!

Hello Family

Yes, it has been awhile but I just never seem to have much energy to sit in front of the computer. I try to do a little work in the basement here and there but only for about an hour at a time until my back starts hurting from sitting. In case some of you haven't seen me in a while, there is ALOT more of me to love! That little bugger never lets me get any sleep which is why it is after 2:00 a.m. and I am wide awake. I can't seem to get comfortable no matter what I try. Tylenol PM doesnt even help. I am going on my 3rd night in a row with very little sleep. So I get up and wander through the house, watch tv, unload the dishwasher, read on the couch and other various things that should not be happening after about 10pm.
The boys are all doing good. Braxton is finally over what ever sickness he had and they are all still enjoying football. Both Weston and Garrett's team made it to the playoffs and played their first game today. Westons team won 20-0 but sadly Garrett's team lost 21-14. They were all very sad because for a bunch of little scrawny boys, they put up one hell of a fight every week and really kicked butt in the regular season only losing 1 game. This means of course that they are out of the playoffs now but will take a week off and then begin practice again for the tournament that they are going to play in starting in November. They all really work hard and have not complained once over the past 3 months. I am very proud of them.
Dennis has been in town the last couple weeks and it has been nice to have someone else be the "Football Shuttle Bus".
I think I have finally convinced him to finish the room in the basement for Braxton next weekend so we can start moving kids around. I would like to get Brody's room set up and have everything ready. Then Tammy won't have to be doing it while I am at the hospital like she has done before! With me you never know when my body might decide to give birth!
I don't remember being this uncomfortable with the other 2 boys but isnt there a saying about mentally blocking it all out because if you remembered everything then you would never have more than 1 child? My stomach feels so tight and achy all the time. I can tell when I am having some small contractions because it gets even worse.
My right foot is always swollen and nothing seems to help. I usually have it elevated all night and it is still looks like I have a club foot in the morning!
I sure hope the fact that Brody never seems to sleep now means that he is going to be a very good sleeper when he comes out!
I should head back to bed AGAIN and see if that sleep thing will work this time!
