Yes I am still here and I do still check up on my blog from time to time. For those who read my blog you will be favored because you get the latest information. Okay so last time I posted I just put up pictures that is mostly because that is what most of my family who looks at my blog want to see right. There have been a lot of things that have happened since my last posting, unfornutely I can't remember most of them to actually write them down, but here are some of the highlights. I am expecting baby #3, it is a girl. We have yet to figure out what her name will be. Kellen was layed off at the beginning of the year and has finished the re-model on the baby's room. We currently have moved Juliet and Mason into that room and hope to have their room torn apart and then fixed back up by the time baby bumpkin arrives. Working under the wire, I know but that is how it is. I finished getting everything out of the room so Kellen and I can start demo-ing it. It is amazing how hammering apart walls and sheetrock can really help bring any stress level down. The kids are excited about being in the new room. They can't wait to go to bed some nights. Kellen has been working on things for people around the valley, which has also kept him busy between doing things for the house, doing almost all the chores, because most of them require lifting that rolly polly me can't do anymore, and fixing things. he is almost more busy than when he was working. The kids have certainly enjoyed having him around more. This week he was taking a class in Pocatello that was a grade checking class. I was all sorts of ready for the kids to have separation issues, but they simply accepted that dad was gone and would be back in the evening, just like before really. I have been staying busy with all the cooking, cleaning and mountains of laundry that build up even faster it seems. My last doctor's visit said everything was good, which is always nice to hear.
okay so funny story time. I made bread on Wednesday and the loaves were sitting on the cooling rack. they were about ready to put into sacks and go into the freezer. Well Mason decided he wanted some bread, and not just any bread he wanted some of the fresh bread. There was a loaf in a bag that was sitting on the counter, but he ignored that and proceeded to take the tops off of the fresh bread. I couldn't help, but run to my room to get the camera and get a picture of the mess he made. Kellen put Mason back up on the counter so he was pictured with the destroyed bread. He was afraid he was in trouble so his face in the picture is priceless. We told him to eat the bread that was already sliced and in a sack from now on. The next morning I found that bag in his room will bread crumbs everywhere. I just thought to myself "Well at least he listened, somewhat."

October fun
We helped to get this steer back with the rest of the herd. We suspected that it was blind. It died a few days later, but i sure love these pics of the kids riding him.
August partying
This is while I was at Lake Powell. The Lake is trying to sink the red boat while it is beached. It was quite the storm. Poor mom (Grandma) got locked in the houseboat with all the children when all us mothers went out to help save the boat. We were successful, but it was quite the fight for a while.
July pictures
Here are some pictures from July with more to come in another post. This is Kellen and his three scouts. They went up to the Big Horn Crags and rode horses all over the place for a week. While he was there I went to Lake Powell with my family.
Picture Post
I haven't been good about posting on my blog and it seemes that whenever i do it winds up being a picture post and today's will be no different. I always like to see pictures anyway. The kids wanted to go swimming and so I worked on making my legs not so blindly white. They were playing ring and the rosies in the pool and made big splashes when they fell down.
We went to the drive in and the kids meals came with a small soft serve ice cream. Mason really got into his and it went everywhere.

The Re-Model
Okay pictures as promised forever ago. There are not very good pictures of the before room, but I found a few that will help.
Okay I know this picture is sideways. I forgot to rotate it before I uploaded it, but this is what my closet was before. The entry was as wide as my shoulders and it was scary inside.

Here is the room before. Notice the green/yellow shag carpet and the yellow wallpaper which was the 3rd level of wallpaper.
In this picture not only do you notice my hubby sleeping, but you can see the ceiling tiles which were stuck up there was some pretty amazing glue
They all were folding their arms, but as soon as I pulled out the camera they stopped. This was after Kellen and I had finished painting the walls and ceiling and starting to get the room prepped for the carpet.
Juliet's Birthday
