I did it!




After viewing everyone elses blogs I decided that it would be a good idea to finally set one up of my own. Hopefully it will help my out of state/country family keep up on whats going on in our lives. So right now not much. May was a pretty busy month with Hollie and Mike coming, Kellie getting married and Noah getting out of school. It also seemed like we've had MILLIONS of birthday's in the past few months.
We had so much fun when Hollie and Mike were here. All of the kids seemed to have a good time together even with the occasional breakdown, fight and just getting tired of each other while thier dads played 27 holes of golf one day! While the women (hollie) slaved away making wedding cakes (about 12-14 I think). Taylor and Kristopher were an interesting pair. I think it's 2 when they say that kids of that age don't play together well, it's true for those 2, friends one minute, fighting the next. They are in England now and we are saving money to go, even if it's just me I'm going to England!
Kellie and Richard's wedding was great. Everything turned out beautiful. Hopefully they had fun too.
Noah just got out of school which he's really excited about. Our daycare has a summer camp that he's going to go to 3 days a weeks so he doesn't just sit at home all day and play Play Station and watch T.V. So far he likes it. Kristopher just plays all day with Kevin until he goes to daycare around 2:30. He's into Thomas the Train, I found Noah's old one's in the basement one day, he played with them for a couple hours. He also likes anything that Noah likes; transformers, hulk, spiderman, cars, and dinosaurs.
Me and Kevin are just working. Kevin will get to sleep in a little longer in the mornings now that Noah doesn't have to be at school at 8:30, so that will be nice for him. So now he can get 5-6 hours of continuous sleep after he gets home from work @ 3-4am. I don't have much going on at work right now, just the same old stuff: hiring, training,managing,firing, and being annoyed on a daily basis by people who just don't seem to get it.
All in all things are good. Last weekend we went to the rec center. The boys had so much fun swimming. Kristopher's favorite part was going down the water slide with Kevin. I'm not talking a small one, it was the big one. I think we were there for about three hours and they didn't stop once. I got burned, but it was relaxing just laying in the sun.
We are looking foward to Lagoon this weekend for Kevins company summer party, Noah is WAY excited. I think we may also go up to Brigham and visit Kevin's sister's, it will be 22 years on the 7th of his sister's passing, we always like to go up and do flowers or a windmill and clean off the grave since they don't really do a good job at the cemetary.
