Catch Up!

Goodness we have been up to lots since Easter! I am getting really bad at keeping up on computer stuff of any type. I logged on to my e-mail today and had like a hundred e-mails. Yikes! So since Easter we have gone to Moab, had mother's day, had a beautiful addition to our family, and a lot a lot a lot of yard work.

Lets start with our newest addition to the family. Koy Tanner was born On April 16th to my Brother Mike and his lovely wife Hollie. We were gonna visit them in the hospital but they did not allow kids int he rooms at the hospital in Logan. Which in many ways I am sure was nice. So the sat after he was born our family went up to see him. He is soooo...cute and definitely belongs to Mike and Hollies beautiful family. They were way too gracious. We were planning to bring them dinner/lunch, but they and Hollies sweat mom made us a bar-b-q. It was so fun too visit with them. they are an amazing little family.


Next on my catch up agenda is that we went to Moab. It was pretty fun. Pretty much every one's vehicle broke down at one point of the trip. It is really quite funny now that I think about it. I must admit that our trip last year was more fun cause we stayed more days and did not try to jam everything into two days and really only one full day. We arrived Thursday evening and later had a bar-b-q and Janean's condo. Then Joe Sheri and I went swimming. On Friday we went to Gemini Bridges again. It was amazing. We were going to go under the bridges, but before we got there we stopped for lunch and it was hot and the kids were ready to leave. So we gave it up and went home. We went swimming later. There was a car parade that night cause the car show was the next day. So Dave and I went and cruised in it. it was fun. Then Sat. we went to the car show and we were gonna go to the arches on our way out, but it got too stormy. :( Oh, well next time. And next time we will stay more days.


Mothers Day was wonderful. Dave got up with Kimball that morning and made me breakfast. He also did the dishes and straightened up the house a little bit. He is so sweat. Then everyone went over to my mom's for dinner. Even Mike and Hollie made there long two hour drive to come down. That was awesome and sweet of them especially since they have that new little baby. Janean and her family was there, Joe was there, and Sheri and her little family was there. Matt was not there cause the sucker went to work in Baltimore for the summer. :) Later on we went to Dave's parents and had dinner. It was nice. Kimball loved seeing grandma, grandpa and aunt Kristin.

Last but not least we have been doing lots of yard work around the apartments. I really had no idea how much work goes into getting the property ready for summer. One day we ripped out or trimmed most of the bushes. We still have to the ones by the fence. Of course there is mowing and edging, but we had to dig out the sprinklers and cut grass away so they could spray properly and now we need to fix about five heads and dig two up to see why they are puddling up so much. We dug up all the weeds and mulched the ground. The next day we went and bought all of the flowers and the next we planted them. Hopefully from here on out it will just me maintaining what we have done.
