Riley's Baseball pics

Baseball !!!

Logan and Riley had their first baseball games on Saturday. Riley's was at 8:00 am we absolutely froze. He had such a hard time holding on to the ball. He had on a sweatshirt, his baseball shirt, a jacket, and a hoodie and he was still freezing. Even though it was cold he still managed to hit the ball and have a fun game. Logan's game was later in the day at 3:00 pm it was still cold, but not nearly as bad as when Riley played. Logan got his first hit off the pitching machine and made it to 2nd base. Then next hit he was able to run in to home. His team did a great job and really tried hard, but in the end they lost 8-21. All in all it was a great day of baseball.

Our Construction !!!

Well we got our tile laid, with the exception of by our front window, door, and closet. We were short tile and could not finish, we had to order more and will finish this weekend. I'm just glad that we had enough tile to do the area where the cabinets go. Today the cabinets have been getting installed. I feel like I am finally get my kitchen some what back. By tonight I will have a stove, a fridge, and a pantry. YEAH !!!!!!! I can hardly contain my excitement. We will not have countertops for another week, but I can live with that I think.

Easter 2008

We didn't have a kitchen for Easter this year so we went to our friends house to dye eggs with the kids. They all had a lot of fun and even managed to stay dye free. On Easter morning we woke up and the kids found their baskets before we headed to the in-laws for an egg hunt. It was a really laid back Easter and without a kitchen we had Easter dinner at KFC. What an Easter to remember.

OUR CONSTRUCTION !!!

CONSTRUCTION BEGINS !!!!!

We decided that we wanted to redo our kitchen and make our house a little more open. So on March 17th our construction began!!! We are having to do all our own rip out so needless to say our lives are upside down at the moment. I am to the point that I never want to see another fast food joint again!!! My house is covered in at least 2 inches of dust everywhere, and we are using our living room as a small make shift kitchen. The only meals we haven't been eating out are breakfast and some lunches. The date for the project to be done is set at April 17th and we are all keeping our fingers crossed that everything goes on schedule. I can't wait for the finished product, but even more just to have a kitchen back and my house back to normal as possible.

Beaver Dam

In March we were able to take a small vacation to Beaver Dam which is just outside St. George. My Dad and step-Mom have a second home there that we stayed at with them. We were gone from March 10th until March 16th. I stayed with my boys until Thursday afternoon then drove to Vegas to be with Brandon while he was there for work. The boys were able to have time with Grandma and Grandpa for a few days without mom and dad for the first time. This was a big accomplishment not only for me but for my dad and step-mom. They did an amazing job with Logan and I really had no need to worry about it. We all had a great time and we even got to celebrate my dads 60th birthday while we were there.
