Summer Is Here

It was about 110 outside this weekend. It is going to be a hot summer! We got a new little pool for the side yard. It is 12 feet round and 3 feet deep. It is the perfect size for our little family. We can all fit in it and play. The best part is Evan can touch the bottom. We are going to try to keep cool in the hot weather.

We have been doing a lot of work on the backyard, and by next month it should all be done. My super husband has been working really hard. We bought wood and made a planter box / retaining wall all along the edge of our backyard. Then we moved 5 yards of sand to the back for under the swing set. If that wasn't enough, we moved 10 yards of dirt to the back yard to prep the back for seed. Now we are trying to grow seed! I say we in all these projects but, it was mainly Jeff. He really has worked way beyond most people's breaking points. When it is all done we will post all our hard work!

So, that's what we have been busy with. All while Evan and Sadie our growing up and getting bigger and bigger. Oh, and big news for Evan, our little boy is potty trained. He has accidents and has a diaper for bed BUT, he is doing really well! Woohoo!

I am so Happy we have a Mini Van!

We took a family vacation. We had to go to go to Utah for Jeff's new job to go over some HR stuff so...... we took to whole family. Evan had so much fun with all his cousins. I had a lot of fun seeing my family. I got to go out with my sisters and mom. We went to get our hair done, we shopped a little, and we went out to eat. That really was so nice for me to get out and be with the people I love so much. We also got to see some of Jeff's friends and his old scout master.

The car ride was not bad either. We traveled at night so they would sleep. And it worked. They both did so well. It really could not have gone any better. I am so thankful for my family. I loved the time with all my sisters and with my kids AND Jeff. He was great and helped a lot. What a good trip!
