Our crazy week...

Hello from the Dorius'!!

Things here have been crazy!
Jes has been working crazy long hours
(I think in hopes of making Christmas not so tight)

Monday he worked 5am-3pm at his regular job.
Then he worked on a side job from 4-10pm.
He was in bed by 12:30am.

Tuesday he worked 5 am-3pm at his regular job.
He then drove to Park City and worked at the Mansion, not getting home until just before 1 am.

Wednesday he worked from 4am-3pm - regular job.
He took his big ladder over and hung "Grandma Carolyn's" Christmas lights on her house.
Then went to his side job again, getting home just after 10:30.

Believe it or not today he slept in!
He didn't leave for work until almost 6 am.
He didn't get home though until 5 pm.
He ran back over to "grandma's" to add an extension cord and get them lights glowin...
He actually ATE DINNER WITH US...
and then headed back to his side job in American Fork.

Emmalee has been working crazy long hours as well!
She has Concert Choir at school, and then are doing a "Spirit of Christmas" program.
She has had rehearsals almost everyday for the past 6 school days.
(It is not just the choir, but it is the whole fine arts program together!)
(so it's BIG)
She has gone to school at 8:30.
She gets out a 3:15 and stays at the school working on her homework as best she can because rehearsals start at 4:00.
She is supose to be done by 9pm... but her best friend is the President of the Concert Choir, and multiple times she and her friend have had to stay late to clean up the classrooms the students wait in until it's their time.
It has been A LOT of work for her.
She crashed yesterday and called in a Hookie Day.
We ran errands together, and she spent most of the day desperately finishing the homework that has been piling up so she won't mess up her honor roll status.
Performances started tonight and so she will be at the school from 5-9 today and tomorrow and monday, with another program on Saturday from 2-4.

During dinner tonight, when we did our "Best Part/Worst Part of the Day" - without Emma because she had just left for her performance - Caleb said his best part about today was that "I gots to see my whole family all at the same time for a few minutes today"
*sniff*

He is such a sweet boy.

It has been rough!
They have been in bed everytime Em and Jes have come home.
:(

I can't wait for NEXT TUESDAY!!
Oh wait!
That's Young Men/Young Women's Night.
Ok.
I can't wait for next WEDNESDAY
LOL
