A short summary of the last few months.....

So far I have been horrible at this Blog thing..... SO let me catch everyone up a little. We recently moved to a new house in Caldwell. We love it! This kids now have their own rooms and a separate play room...no more tiny apartment!!!! We have been doing a lot of fishing as a family and recently went to Cascade for our first family camping trip of the season. Both kids caught several fish all by themselves, then we took the boat out and watched the fireworks. If we arent out fishing ( now that we are 7 min. away from lake Lowell) we are still unpacking and trying to adjust to the new duds.

So its been a very long time since I have been on here. A lot has happened! We have had a couple holidays, birthdays, and vacations. I also lost a very dear friend of mine. I miss her greatly and think of her and her little family often.I will try and get a few photos up to make up for my absence its been crazy around here!

The Vacation!

Last week I went on vacation with my BFF Allie to the Oregon coast. We left Thursday morning at 5 am. This was the first vacation I have been on in years, even though I went totally broke, we still managed to have a good time. It was much needed and Allie and I always have a good time. We did all the things you do on vacation; (window) shopped, walked on the beach, sat on the beach and did nothing (luckily the weather was nice), ate food, laughed, ate some more food, and all that fun stuff. I will post pictures when I get them developed.

What a man!!!

I have to say Eric is the sweetest most amazing man ever!!! I could not have found a more perfect match for my children and I. And believe me I worried about that. Eric has quite the Knack for entertaining the kids, between the lawn mower rides, the llama rides( he has 3 llamas that he uses for hunting), and the motorcycle rides, he also makes time to play tea party with Kiely. ( shhhh dont tell that I told :) ) He is the coolest ever. Thank you Eric for being you!!!! I love you babe!

I cant believe that it is already May!!! This year is flying by. Kiely is taking dance class and is loving it. Wesley is all boy and would spend every second of the day outside if he was given the chance. Unfortunatly he got his mothers fair skin and has to be lathered often with sunscreen. He is getting soooo big and is talking a mile a minute. I thought for sure he was mute a couple of months ago, but has caught right up to his cousins. So far this year I have been hunting for the first time, and have been out shooting a couple times. Eric is a very avid hunter and has been teaching me the ropes. The whole gang (kiely, wes, eric and I ) went out on the boat a couple weeks ago fishing, it was a good time! Wes was a little unsure about the fish flopping around in the bottom of the boat, and called the lake, "yucky juice". But eventually he got the hang of it. Between our two fishing trips we caught 4 pirch, 2 sm. mouth bass, 2 trout, and well over 100 cropie. We are so looking forward to camping and such this summer!!!!
