Story Hour

One night, Nate wanted a story so I started reading to him. Then Josh wanted to be included and then Colton woke from his nap to join us. There was sitting room only. The funny thing about it all is that Colton was looking at the pictures with us and trying to get them. It's the moments like these that are sweet, the one's that you just want to lock into your memory forever!

Mole

WARNING: MAY CONTAIN GROSS IMAGES
Our lawn is being destroyed by moles and gophers. We have underground trails that you can see all over our yard. You walk on our lawn and you can feel it just sink beneath you. They are destroying our yard. So Danny, bought some traps to kill them. We have 4 traps placed near their holes that they come up from. This morning had hit the jackpot in our front yard. This is actually a dead gopher. We didn't know what it was but Nate said it was a gopher because he saw it on "In between the Lions" and he described it for us. So Danny looked it up on the web and sure enough he was right. (I guess I don't have to feel guilty anymore because watching tv is paying off.) This one gophers has a trail leading all over the front and then under our driveway, which because of the tunnels it is causing our driveway to sink and crack. Stinkin rodents! We don't know how many are out there but one is DEAD and because we were so excited we really just had to share it with everyone else. Hope this doesn't gross you out too much! Oh, there are spikes peircing through the entire body. And look at those hands for digging, aren't they awesome!

Boy's Bathroom

This is the boys bathroom.

Another look at the bathroom.

This is their shower curtain.

Last look at the bathroom. The yellow doesn't look to bad in these picture. It was bright lime green before we painted it. I don't know what the old owners were thinking! But I think that since we didn't prime the walls before hand that the yellow went a little brighter than we wanted it too. We were trying to match it to the yellow in the shower curtain. It's not a huge bathroom but it's the boys' bathroom and really what do boys care about having a big bathroom for anyways.

Family Room

Here is a video clip of our family room. It still needs some finishing touches on it. We have more pictures that we to hang up but we need to buy some new picture frames for them. Then I am still trying to find some tie backs that I like for the curtains. But we like how this room is coming along. It has a nice warm feeling that we were looking for. And maybe one day I can talk Danny into putting some crown molding on the ceiling because I would really like that. But I just wanted to give everyone a quick glance at what this room looks like right now.

Chubba- Bubba

Ok, I know, it's been awhile since I last posted. I have been meaning to come up with something. But this calling has my mind just on overload right now. I fall asleep thinking about what needs to be done and I wake up thinking about primary. I sure hope that it gets better the longer I'm in there. Anyways, here is a recent picture of "little" Colton. He is wearing a 6-9 month outfit. And I guess officially he is now 4 months old. I can't believe it. He is rather a happy boy. He's pretty good too, he's being so patient and good for daddy on Sunday's since mommy is so busy on those days. But look at those thighs! I wish you all could actually see them and feel them. He loves to stand now and when he does, you should see the dimples in his knees because he's so dang chubby. I'll have to let everyone know what he weighs when I take him in for his 4 month appt. I will be posting some more things in the next day or two of our house and some of the things we have done, so keep an eye out for that.
