Happy Fathers.

I'm a little late posting the pictures. It was crazy every day getting Cassidy to School. She had her last day Wednesday. She was sad but I was Excited! I don't have to drive 200 miles everyday. So now that I have a few minutes to sit, I decided to post. Last weekend was Fathers day & we got spend it with Grandpa Charlie too. John was so excited to carry the present all by himself to Grandpa Charlie.
It was before church of course. The kids picked out there own cards too. Luke of course picked a Indiana Jones card for dad. 
Adam and grandpa came so spend some time with us before Adam leaves for his mission. It was a good visit. We spent most of the time on the boat. We all had fun except Cassidy. She got a rope burn within the first 5 minutes. They did it all this weekend. Tubes, wake boards, Knee boards, and finished off with surfing. Luke wants to do everything his dad does. He even got up on the wake board for a bit and he is only 4. This is him surfing. Just like the song "I'm watching you dad." 

Official Boat Post

After Many requests to see pictures of our new boat, here they are. 

It is a 2008 Malibu Wakesetter VLX, 21.5 ft V-drive. 

It is SUPER responsive and rides like a dream. It is so nice being right across from the lake, because we can go out for like 30 minutes at a time and it doesn't wear the kids out too much. 

Here's hot mama, driving while I go get the trailer.

Yours Truly, of course, (Notice I Do Not Have a Watch On)
The best time of day, just enjoying the cool evening, listening to music while we wipe her down and put her away. 

If you want to come on out just give me a call. The water temp is like 72 deg. So it has been great!

If anyone is looking to get a boat I would like to give a shout out to Tommy's Slalom Shop in Denver (that is the store logo on our hull) they are great and treated us Like Family.

Always better with friends.

The Millers & Heaps. Kris & Sarah came to Visit. It was a short but sweet. This was taken bright and Early in the morning. Cassidy's looks like she just woke up because she did. 
Then Heather brought her kids to play. We got to try out our new and AWSOME tube. IT IS THE BEST EVER!!! even when it is not blown up all the way. 
They had a great time! we waited till they looked too cold. Of course they wanted to do it again but they looked freezing.
I think I made the right call. This is Luke trying to stay warm. 

Moving pictures.

Little John found this when we were packing. We HAD it in the get rid of pile. O-well. How can you resist something so cute? He wore it all night. 

Wednesday morning. 9 am. Allied did a great job. Thank you! That is one big truck. The boys of course loved it. What boy wouldn't ?

I am so glad we found this great house in the best neighborhood. I couldn't ask for a better place to raise our children. As we were unloading some neighbor kids came to play. 

Then more neighbors. Of course they had a race. Thats a given. The next day even more kids. so many new friends. My children love it here. They LOVE playing outside. I love having a place where I don't have to worry. 

What better way to cool off then a quick run in the sprinklers? I can't wait for my yard to be done. 

More pictures to come soon. I just got my computer up and running today. ( I should say Abe. He did it for me. Thank you babe.)We got our boat Saturday so I will post those pictures later. We are in our new house and loving every min. 

Moving Day (Good bye Ghetto Valley Ranch)!!!

Sorry no pictures. Not yet.

We are armpits deep in mud in the new house. the builder hasnt put the fence up yet (so thats fun with three dogs), the landscapers wont be putting in the grass for another week and a half. UGGG

But at least we are in are NEW house yay!

our first house!!!

So we did it!. We closed on our house. I am very proud to have a key.  It was the same day as the tornados. They touched down just a few miles away. I would have been one crazy woman if they took out my house the day we closed.
Here is one of my handsome boys about to open our door for the first time we own it.
Luke took this picture. good job luke.  It is a beautiful home. It was worth the wait.

So now we are just crazy packing and taking some small loads up. A lot of miles are going to be put on my car this next month. June 18th cant come fast enough. That is Cassidy's last day of school. So even after we are all moved in I will still be making the long drive. UUUGGG!

Oops, He did it again!

I was doing some serious packing today. We close on our house tomorrow. YA!

I went to see what my trouble boys were up to. They  were too quiet. I found Luke up on the table trying to catch a fish with his jump rope and John again covered in powder. With all the packing he must have found an old bottle. What is with this Kid????

He is so proud of himself!

He must not of thought he smelled fresh enough, Because I caught him trying to go after some baby cologne.  
I sent him out of the room so I could clean up. He went strait for the bathroom to admire his work.  He has his dad's gloves on to help pack. Can you tell how much help he is? Thats my boys.
