Updates...

As prompted by my husband, I need to get some updates on this blog!  We've recently purchased a Wii, and of course now all of my "extra time" is devoted to conquering Bowser, riding Yoshi, and tag teaming with Luigi to beat every world while collecting every coin in my way.  So blog?  Hmmm...  I get around to it when I can.  ; )  After both kids' birthdays I took them out to Taylor Made Ranch, and got their photos done...and finally (this week) I got around to ordering them...so I'm looking forward to showing those off!  Spring set in and Jared and I got out in the yard and dug up the weeds, sprayed the moss, planted some new seed, weeded the flower bed (that took us 5 hours!), lined it with old brick, and ever since I've been slowly filling it with gorgeous greenery and flowers.  I'm so excited that I'm actually liking it...I never knew gettin' dirty would be so much fun!  And relaxing!  Ruby turned 50!  Sunny got Engaged to Mr. Neil Perkins and they are happily planning a Fall wedding!  Leah moved to Utah for massage school.   Ethan had a day of bike safety at Grass Valley at their BIKE RODEO...and that day we removed his training wheels!  Lilly is finally through the diaper stage of life (praise GOD!).  Jared's studio got it's finishing touches...the new desk went in and the shelves went up.  Amber and Paul's adorable Hayden Joshua was born.  We are the new proud owners of a '73 Super Beetle!  And in less than 2 days I will be on a 5 day trip to the East Coast to visit Curt and Ruth in DC/Virginia Beach.  That about sums it up!
