So I just realized how long it has been since i participated in the blogging world and I am so sorry. Let me give a quick update. First I put another post in before this one so scroll down to see it! it's long but you will enjoy the update i promise!
* Alex is now gone but while he was here he basically worked and slept ans ate! Really that's all he did. However while he was working he cut his finger open on a skill saw and basically it looked a little bit of spaghetti. They were going to give him stitches but there wasn't much they could stitch it too so it healed on it's own. Just so you know drugs were a wonderful healing power!
* Nathan built a home for the Bear Lake Parade of Homes of which he WON THE PEOPLE"S CHOICE award! I am so proud of him!!!! It's a beautiful home that we were so blessed to build because we have really met and made some pretty special friends. I will post on this a little later.
* I am going back to school to finish my degree in Elementary Education! I am loving it!
* My pool project isn't going like i thought it would but a little at a time. I am almost at $10,000 which is a start. I need much much more than that so if you know of any companies that need to make donations please let me know! Or if you know of any grants that I may obtain somehow please let me know!
* Tavis has found the new love in his life! TRUCKS TRUCKS AND TRUCKS. He makes the driving sound and drives them all over his body and all over everyone else. It's so funny to watch. He has taught himself to put things in the bucket of the trackhoe and skidster and hull them around. I did not teach him this but I think he got it from his watching his dad drive all the equipment around. He recently started putting food in the buckets and feeding himself from the trucks. It must be in his blood!
* His first word is of course DAD! :( and the 2nd word is Dog. There is no mom, infact he's not even close. He won't even make the sounds. I am so sad. He loves our dogs and points everday out the window at them and dog dog dog. . . he'll point at Nate's truck and say Dad Dad Dad. I have tried everything but there is not mom.
* Tavis has taught himself how to use a fork. He will not let me feed him to save my life. I tried the kid forks but they are not sharp enough for him to pick anything up so he won't eat unless he has a big people fork of which h is amazingly accurate and feeds himself very well.
* We finally got grass! Well kind of. it's in quite the fragile state but i'll take pictures to show you later when it' doesn't look soo umm well fragile.
