Good Morning
Glad to see some more posts since my last. My life is going good. I am working long hours but that is part of life I have decided. We just found out that me and mom's trip to Italy is going to be canceled. I am bummed and not sure what to do. We do have the option of going on an early tour that includes Greece and Turkey but I am not sure what to do. Some of the places that I really wanted to see are not included in this trip like Dubrovnik, Eze and Barcelona. I have heard that Turkey is the "bomb" with some really cool ruins etc but with all the stuff going on over there it makes me really nervous. I will let you all know what we decide next week. The tour company has to know in a week.
The weather here had mellowed out a little we have been in the 50's this week but with the poor air quality I am praying for a storm to clean the air out! The warm weather has been a nice change from the 30's. Although it is not 70 and fun in the sun like Florida!!!
On the work front, there are alot of sick people out there. The flu is really ramping up and so is the pneumonia train. I just hope to stay healthy and on top of things with giving out masks and washing my hand all the time. My hands are so dry but dry hands are better then being sick.
As for you Janell I say go for what is best for your family. It's not like that you can't change your mind. I am sure that putting your family first is always a good decision!
I am sad to see LaNece and family go. We will have to visit often. It's quite funny Garrett and Tatum are little buddy's anytime they play together and Garrett has to go home he starts crying and saying "I want my Tatum". I know that he will miss her alot but it should keep us visiting alot to the warmer part of the state.
As for you Bethany I am way excited for you and school! I think it is great that you and Jake are ready to have a baby! It sounds like you and Jake are going through alot of crap with Jake's job but keep your head up it will get better. I really miss seeing you and talking about the random things that are life! I am glad that your life seems to be heading in the right direction!!
I am glad to hear that grandma is doing well. I got a little of a scare when I got the call at work on Monday she seemed like nothing was wrong when we saw her after surgery so I am glad all is well!
I just want you guys to know how much I love and miss you!

Heellllo Robinson Family members
Well the sale of the resort in Moab actually went through, Todd will be going down on Monday the Ward basketball team is excited because he will be here on Saturday to play with them in regions. He's had a really good time playing with them. He's also been putting in some resumes here around town so I'm crossing my fingers one of the local ones will work out. We are planning on me and the kids moving down toward the beginning on April while Brooks is off track. So he'll have a couple days to adjust and we can maybe move in a couple trips.
You guys would not believe what a trooper Mom has been after her surgery, she never even took a pain pill in the hospital or afterwards. She seems to be doing just great.
Okay Janell I think that your family comes first. So if that will help then you just need to do it. Sometimes it seems like a huge obstacle but it is way important to do what's best for you and your family.
Alright Bethany you made me giggle. I love you sense of humor. How's the online school going? I hope well.
We are going to visit Todd this next weekend and I'll take my camera and get some pictures to post.
I love and miss all of you that are away (or I don't see that much).

Hello Everyone
We hope everyone is doing well. And we are very grateful that Mom is recovering and coming home today.
We are doing great at our house. I'm recovering from the flu and I'm feeling tons better. If any of you get the flu, sleep helps tons.
Miles and Hanalee are off track until the 17th of March, we are hoping to get some spring cleaning done and hopefully enjoy some nice weather.
Daphne and Hanalee played softball in St. George last weekend. They both played really well. As a parent I am really proud of them and their dedication and sportsmanship. They are both such hard workers and team players. Hanalee's team was eliminated early. I think they had fun even though they were a little disappointed with not doing better. They need to realize that Hanalee as pitcher is only 10 almost 11 and pitching against teams with older players. Daphne's team ended up 4th, they played some really hard teams and lost by a run or two. She does awesome at 1st base and made some key plays for her team. I can't believe that we are getting back into tournaments. Sometimes I think winter isn't long enough.
We are signing Miles up for T-Ball this weekend. I can hardly wait for soccer and t-ball games to begin.
I have a feeling that our weeks are going to get crazy soon. I am thinking of going back to being an on-call employee only at the Temple again. I really want to be a mom and I'm tired of being tired all the time. I hate missing the kids games and then trying to get the kids taken care of if Lynn isn't home and I have to go to work. I really like it their, but I think my kids and family need to come first. I still second guess myself and I haven't told my bosses yet, but it just feels like the thing to do right now. Do anyone have any suggestions? I need all I can get right now.
We love you all and miss you tons.
Love
Janell

Mid 70's, sunny and so beautiful *sigh*
You poor snowed in people...heehee. I'm ready for the beach baby!! WOOHOO! Sorry I haven't been on in awhile. Things are going well here. It's actually pretty warm for the winter down here and the locals are complaining. It's funny that we leave UT and then it has the best ski season in15 yrs. At least that is what I've heard. I so don't miss shoveling driveways or scraping snow off the windshield.
Mom and dad are going to San Fran next weekend. The new Bingham debate coach is flying him out to surprise the debaters at the tournament. So I get to get some mommy practice time. :) Cody and Josie are doing very well. Josie received her first straight A report card. Cody also received a 4.0. He does very well in school and is excelling in all of his classes. Josie started softball practice today and I think her first game is in March...I think. She is still in dance for now, but is planning on dropping that after her recital so that she can pick up soccer. She is so sporty. :) Cody is still playing with his soccer team and is doing well. The kids are changing SO much. Sometimes I can't believe it. Mom had a little break in work this last week and she is afraid that Feb won't be as good of a month as others. Dad is teaching hard and doing a darn good job with it. He picked up contacts this week. It's funny to hear his stories about trying to put the contacts in. LOL. He makes us giggle like crazy.
Jake and I are doing well. Jake's work has been a little bit of a pain though...When he was hired on the told him that his review would come up in November and that they would give a raise that was close, if not equal to, what he was making in UT. November came and they informed him that the company had put a freeze on all raises until the beginning of the next year. So he waits...January comes! The company tells everyone that they bought out their sister company and are expanding. Jake's boss tells him he is leaving and that he wants Jake and another person to take over his job duties. Boss man goes to his boss. Boss man comes back to Jake and let him know that they are shutting down the branch that they work in and everyone being split up and moved to other locations. Jake is now in the new location. His new boss wants to train him for on-sight printing. This means they will send Jake to an engineering firm and architecture firm and have him print there. Which could be nice. Jake asks his boss about his raise that he's owed and new boss man says...wait for it..."Paperwork is all crazy from the move. Once we get everything sorted out we'll talk to you about a raise." *Sigh* So we wait. I've been busy for once. I signed up for an online scoping course to help me learn more about my software and so that I can pick up a client. I get everything together I get set up and then my current client actually gets really busy and I don't have any time to do more than the first 2 lessons. But on the bright side, I've made more money this month than I have ever made. :) That is nice. I'm supposed to have a break next week so I can really focus on school. That is very good because once I'm done with school and I get established with another client, then Jake and I are going to try for a baby. I want to be a mom now. I'm ready for that big step. I just need to get my things in order.
Jake and I are also planning on flying down to UT for next Christmas. We looked at our finances and figured that with our tax returns we will so be able to make it down.
It is so great to hear that everyone is doing so well. :) And remember, if you ever get tired of snow and need a break come on down to sunny FL and we'll all go to the parks and the beach! I love you all and miss you terribly.
