All about US up to now

Obviously I'm the best blogger ever, as seen by all my many posts in 2008. So just a little bit and you should all be caught up! You already saw the ducks and the green pool, and since spring is coming we are doing lots of yard work, which includes that green pool. I have been out weeding and mowing and trying to get the grass too look green again. I am going to plant flower sometime soon, Scott assures me that he will run a drip line so they don't die. Amazingly enough the trees that never got the drip run to them last year are still alive! I'm happy about that! Nothing gets enough water if the drip isn't on! Scott wants to do a garden, but I don't know if I have energy for it with all the other projects we have going on right now. I guess we'll see. Maybe if he runs another drip line!!!

We are still working on the new garage project that has taken us WAY too long! It should seriously be done within a few days! I can't wait to be able to use it! The color coat of the stucco didn't turn out as dark as I wanted it to, I'll put pictures up so you can see, I just wanted to wait till the doors were on.

Scott works too much and I have hardly been working at all. I really should get into the office every once in a while! I wonder what Lori (our office miracle worker) thinks of me as of late! I've abandoned her. Oh well, it's been nice and I have been working on all this house stuff. We are nearing the beginning of another house project. We are going to do a small addition and a kitchen/ master bath remodel. We are excited and stressed at the same time about that. I would like to just get started.

The kids have all begun taking piano lessons. From the 14 year old to the 4 year old! It's fun and everyone of them really likes it! Carter thought that for sure he wouldn't, but secretly he does. Don't ask him to admit it, cause he never would.

The little ones stopped doing gymnastics because I really didn't like the coaches. It's too bad too because they loved it. I wish there was another place up here! I am going to have to look into it. Brodric said just today that he would like to do it again.

Kendahl is swimming for the High School swim team!!! I am so proud of her. She has swum (is that a word?)off and on through the years, but has never competed. Today we went to her second meet and she did great! She swam the 100 free, the 500 free and a 50 free for a relay. It was great! She loves it and has always loved being in the water. I'm glad she enjoys it!

For Easter we are going to Williams to the cabin! We should have a blast there! Last time we were there it snowed a foot. I don't think we will have that excitment, but it will still be great! I'll definately post pictures of that.

Ok, so this is like a Christmas letter, but I thought I better get caught up on us so I can continue! Hopefully I'll post sooner than later next time. I should get the hang of this soon wouldn't you think?

Hey, I didn't know you had a blog! If you were keeping it from me you didn't do a good enough job :o)! I'm glad you got away for Easter. You guys deserve a break as often as you can get it. I can't wait to see picture's of all the home remodel projects.

Love you.
