House Update

We are so excited to close on our house on April 21st!  It is looking so good!  Here are a few pictures of the newest additions.
Front yard is done!

Appliances are in!

Carpet and tile is in, but will get ripped up and replaced after closing.

I don't know anything about having gas appliances, but everyone says I will LOVE them...I hope so!

This carpet is staying in all of the bedrooms!

My favorite part of the new house...a walk in shower (no more clear glass doors to clean)!

I love our bathroom and two walk in closets!
Pavers are in!

Jerry loves is RV gate!
 

Cute picture of Brody and Mimi!

Happy Easter!!!!

We felt so blessed to have family here from out of town (Ohio & Alaska) this Easter!  We had a beautiful day together!  We went to mass, had a wonderful dinner, a FUN egg hunt, and welcomed Uncle Tony back from the hospital.  It was wonderful making memories with our sweet family!
The boys left out carrots, water, and a note for the Easter Bunny!  Wyatt's note asked the Easter Bunny for a fanse (fancy) egg! :)

On Easter morning, Wyatt got many fancy eggs with chocolate mini eggs inside...yum!

Brody was excited to see the goodies he got too!

We already have a ton of Nerf guns, but these boys just can't get enough!  They LOVE them!

Locked and loaded!  Ready for a Nerf war!

Jesus has risen!!!  Gorgeous!

The whole gang!  WE LOVE YOU!!!

HUGS AND KISSES TO YOU!!!

Ethan wanted to be in our family picture...we miss him! xo

This is just after the egg hunt!  These kids found some serious cash in those eggs!  I think Natalie found a total of $21.00!!!

Cousin love! :)

My dad with his beautiful sisters!

Uncle Tony was released from the hospital on Easter!  Praise the Lord!  We were all so happy to see him!  xo

Aunt Bev and Uncle Paul headed back to Alaska the following day!  We loved every story and every bit of time with them!

We were so thankful that my Uncle Tony was discharged from the hospital and feeling well.  We were blessed to have time with him on Easter and the following night.  Praise Jesus!  xo 
 

Ohio & Alaska Family Visit :)

We felt so blessed to have some of our Ohio and Alaska relatives in town for a visit!  We had many fun family gatherings and prayed a lot for my Uncle Tony who was hospitalized while visiting.  We love you all so much and miss you already!!!
Coloring eggs!  :)

The boys LOVED having Ethan here!!!

So blessed to have these sweet aunts and cousins!

Aunt Bev and Uncle Paul were able to make it out to see our new house...almost finished!

Wyatt's Zoo Field Trip! March 27, 2015

Wyatt's 2nd grade class went on a field trip to the Wildlife World Zoo!!!  I was so happy to be chosen as a chaperone!  I took the day off of work and we enjoyed a wonderful day together with our group.  Wyatt's favorite part of the trip was going on the log ride!
Aidan, Chase, Hunter, Wyatt, Brody & Karsten (Wyatt's class has 5th grade buddies...here are Wyatt with his two 2nd grade friends and all of their 5th grade buddies).

Cool stingrays!!!

This one particularly loved Wyatt!!!  :)
