Today was a good day!!

Helping dad put together his big boy bed!!!


He is very excited to have a big boy bed!!






I am disapointed that we didn't get anything done on my closet tonight, but I am so excited we sold our truck!!!! Super yay!!!! And we put together Marshall big boy bed, which by the way he is asleep in right now, without getting out of bed or crying at me (i figured if I sat in here on the computer till he fell asleep he would see me and fall asleep, which he did) So awesome. So needless to say I am a very happy person right now.

































CLOSET UPDATE!!







We are getting really close to being done with the closet here are a couple pics of the shelves we did the other day, we need to finish a couple more and prep and paint, then it will be done, I CANT WAIT!!!

Wall E

This is kind of a funny blog, but this is my snowblower!!! It is so old, it's probably older than I am!!! When Kendall bought it home 6 years ago it didn't run and I was like why did you bring that home?? But he fixed it this year and it works pretty good, and makes snow removal a little better than just shoveling. Besides we need a new shovel because our shovel has about had it, the metal in the middle is gone and it's wearing away!! The snowblower even has chains on the tires just in case it gets stuck LOL!!! When I was snowblowing my driveway yestarday I looked down at it and thought man this thing is old, it looks old, I think it looks kinda like Wall E so from now on I am going to call it Wall E!!! I think it's so funny when I am outside snowblowing because all of these big guys have these tiny "snow throwers" and I am little and have this HUGE snowblower that is way bigger than I am!!! They kinda look at me funny maybe it's because the snowblower is so old!! So I must say I am pretty proud of myself, because when I was snowblowing my driveway today in the middle of it my snowblower quit driving, the motor was on and everything, but the wheels wouldn't turn so I thought well I dont just want to leave it in the middle of the driveway and wait for Kendall and I dont want to have to try to drag it into the garage because it's so HUGE and HEAVY. So I just looked at it and said "i think I can figure this out" so I looked at it and actually figured it out, then I loaded up the kids went to Lowes, got the parts and fixed the wheel!!! So I finished the driveway and the sidewalks!! It might be an old snowblower, but at least it works!!! So thats my story ENJOY!!

My CLOSET




It's coming along pretty well now. After about 50 coats of mud. (just kidding, more like 5 coats of mud) We could finally start building the closet shleves ect. Thank you to Kendall, for building my closet. To Gary, Kyle, and Tyler who all came and helped Kendall the other day to work on the closet and the Laundry room. Kendall got alot further with all the help than if we were just doing it ourselves. Well the kids love to help also, even though Marshall always runs away with all the tools and just so happens to be right where we are working all the time, at least he is helping a learning from his dad. I cant wait till tomorrow when we can work on it some more and I cant wait till it's done. Then I need to do my kids closets next.

















NEW YEARS EVE



Bodie and Jen came over to hang out on new years eve, Karwin and Suzanne stopped by for a little while, we played a couple board games and then we played guitar hero. It was lots of fun, Marhsall only stayed up until 10:30 and Jenika stayed up as long a s we did, she went to bed at 12:30. We were having fun playing guitar hero and didn't want to stop so we had to limit ourselves to 12:30 and then we had to go to sleep. Jenika has stayed up till midnight ever new years since she was 18 months old.








Marshall and Jenika



They love each other so much.
