Lots Going On!

We have had so much going on !

So, a few weeks back, Miss Andrea went to the PROM! She was so stinkin cute.

I love this girl to pieces.

 

 

 

Easter was a fun day. Nothing too extravagant, but we did get a fun family picture and it worked out to be the day after prom, so Andrea got to wear her dress to church. It was so cute.

 

 

The washer and dryer have arrived and we have done tone of laundry since. I LOVE my Whirpool set. New appliances are amazing.

 

Rex has been in Idaho Falls all week for work, and I have learned some things since then. I appreciate all the things that he does for all of us. He runs silly errands, goes to the store, fixes things, talks to appliance people, installs things, calms quibbles among siblings , picks up, cleans up, and keeps everything running a lot more than I thought he did ( just being honest) . I am very grateful for this wonderful man. He really is my world.

 

Evelyn had her 1 year check up today. A little later than expected, but we got it done. She is a tiny miss who is fierce and independent. She is tipping the scales at 18.9 pounds and 28 inches long. She is doing great.  

The Upside

Yesterday was tough. It was one of those days when you should just go back to bed and start over tomorrow. I talked to the boys though, and we decided that we were going to have an Attitude of Gratitude! Even though we lost one of our dogs and our fence broke, we practiced faith that we would find our dog. We worked together to fix the fence and the boys learned a new skill. And while the washing machine AND dryer broke both on the same day, we decided to be grateful that we had just finished all the laundry in the house, and that we were able to purchase a new set for our family.
 Sure enough, the ONE friend I told our dog was missing, showed up on her front porch this morning, of all places. I was able to find a killer deal on a washer dryer set and it will be here next week. While, things were tough, it really was a great day. Trenton also received his Arrow of Light last night. The highest honor in Cub Scouts. Joe also received his Blue and Gold badge, Field Trip Badge and his Conservation Awareness badge. These boys love scouting! We are proud parents .

We can't forget Mr. Benji!

My Boy

Trenton received his Faith in God Religious Square Knot for Cub Scouts last night. He and one other boy were the first the receive this prestigious  award in our stake. This is a great great achievement for him to reach at age 9. I am a proud mama!
