Our Yard-

On Friday-

Here is Frank, our neighbor, filling in holes and smoothing out the backyard. We no longer have holes!!!

WOOOO HOOOO

We now get to rake it smooth and away from the fence, put part of the fence back up and get it ready for grass. But the holes are gone!

On Saturday-

Trevor got out his new chain saw, with Virgil here to help, and cleaned up the trees out front. We had several branches that had been broken over the past few years and so they came down. The trees look a lot better, we also cleaned them out some too.

I love when we get to check off major things from the to do list, it makes everything that much better!

New Blog

Well I have filled my photo memory with this blog and have decided that the easiest thing for me was to start a new blog.  You can now find our life updates at  Irish Glam too .   (irishglam2.blogspot.com)
Happy reading.  

funny moments

I am in the Relief Society Presidency at church and last week we had an activity that I was helping with so on Tuesday we pretty much did relief society all day long.  On Wednesday afternoon Morgan came up from the basement with a folder, a notebook and a purse in her hands.  She sat down at the dinning room table and told me she was doing her relief society, just like that. 

Zach has a cold, a stuffy nose, and it is cracking me up.  If you blow your nose and pinch at the end of it you make it stuffier.  He has been walking around the house with a tissue held up to his nose.  (makes me laugh on the inside)  Also he says that his nose is on fire and has a fever and the only thing to help it is to have a tissue up to... funny boy.
    Another Zach funny - he was mad when we got to church and would not sit with us.  So, as a good mother that I am, I decided to just ignore it hoping he would come sit with us.  Well he did, it was just after the sacrament was passed.  He sat a few rows behind us for awhile and then stood in the isle a few rows in front of us.  The boys passes the bread of the sacrament and he just stood there, in the way.  Before the water came he sat down on the end chair of the row in front of us but wouldn't acknowledged the boy when he was offering him water.  We had some friends staying at my parents house too, her son went and sat by Zach.  That is when we stood up gave him a pirate face and came and sat by us.  Justin, the son of the friend, came back by us too and we were all chuckling at the whole situation.  I think I did get his attention and told him to sit down once but what do you do. We were in Boise at my parents ward where my father is the bishop...
All I have to say is ... if his father would have been here that would under no circumstances fly but when mom has to deal with the younger brother... you have a little wiggle room.

Katie got her ears pierced.  She was nervous, then cried, then smiled. (pictures coming)  
Trevor won a Wii system.(will post story about that later)

those are our stories for now...

buy more memory

Oakay bloggers out there I went to finally get caught up on my blog and when it was uploading Christmas pictures they didn't load.  I had a pop up that informed me I was out of memory and need to buy more???  WHAT  ????  does any one have a solution, helpful hints or info on what to do.
thanks

Trevor's photo

Trevor took this photo on their (Katie, Zach and him) to go sledding with the Armstrongs.  They didn't get to go sledding because of not enough snow but went out on  the four wheelers later in the day.  So instead of sledding we all went and hung out at the Armstrongs for the afternoon/evening.  They are great friends and am glad we can just go over and hang out for the day.

 way back in Dec.
