Update Soon

We are alive and well, just very busy. Between the wedding, family visiting, and my house being trashed due to new flooring, it has been crazy. Pictures to follow at some point soon.

Also, if you need any handy man stuff done, or flooring put in, we now know a guy. He is an incredible worker and does an awesome job. He and PJ worked until 5 this morning to get the floors done. He knows how to do pretty much anything and is amazingly cheap!

Off to Dr.'s appointments since I cannot seem to have a day off!

What We've Been Up To




Getting bigger




The Army Dr. and Cowboy hanging out during school time.





Cleaning up water intrusion in my dining room. It is lots of fun living on concrete!




School time! Kayla loves Astronomy.




And history. She is very proud of her pyramid.







Doing the timeline is the highlight of the week. Except for when Daddy does the history reading with her. He pulls out the laptop and shows pictures. She told me yesterday, in a very sweet way, "Mommy, I like it when you do history, but Daddy is way better." Oh well, Daddy is heroic in all sorts of ways that I am not. Taken for granted once again!

School has been going very well this year. She is enjoying it a lot more than last year. Probably because I am attempting to do a lot more of hands on stuff that she enjoys. She gets through math and handwriting and the "not so fun" stuff to get to the history and science.

Besides that we have been painting our house to try and help with the water intrusion, praying for enough money from the insurance to fix the dining room, getting ready for Joey and Lauren's wedding, and looking forward to my cousin and his family to come to town in a couple weeks. Life is busy, but we are having fun! Most days at least....
