Finally Spring?

Well, Memorial Day went well. Early in the morning we went to Walmart and Austin went to the church to fix it's internet connection. After Walmart I took the kids back to the church so they could run around until Daddy was done! I cleaned out the Relief Society closet because HEAVEN KNOWS it needed it!!! Afterwards, we finally got on our way to Marquette (a bigger city a little less than 2 hours south east of us). We had fun! i went into Michaels with Zoya and Austin went into Gamespot with Tevin. They had Mario cart set up so Tevin was in love! When I went into Michaels it was SENSORY OVERLOAD! I haven't been in a craft store for such a long time. I felt like standing there in awe! I was happy to be there though! I kept saying "wow" and I guess I did it a lot because Zoya would say it too! After all of our shopping and getting the kids new shoes, we headed home after a nice day. When we got home it was freezing! Come to find out we had a frost warning! I am so sick of it!!! Five days till June and it's still close to FREEZING! Agh! Sometimes I dream of tropical beaches. lol : )
I finally got off my duff today and did some housework. It's nice, but it would be nicer to snap my fingers and take a spoon full of sugar. : ) Austin has his three month review today! Hopefully he can get a raise and then we will actually have enough money to SAVE! It's a miracle! : ) We're definitely blessed already, I know. But Austin is always happier when we are "comfortable." He's so funny! Tonight we are roasting marshmallows and cooking hot dogs while we plant our garden! YEAH! I'm glad Austin and I love to garden and work outside so much. It will definitely be something our family will continue to enjoy, especially if there are worms! Then EVERYONE is happy! : ) Hope this nicer weather sticks around. I don't think I can take much more of the color gray!

Talk, Talk, Talk!

Well today was fabulous! We had to give talks in sacrament meeting and I thought it went great. Austin talked on Prayer. He said it wasn't good but I learned something! : ) I gave a talk on your Calling and Election made sure. It was great!!! I was just excited to teach a little meat for once! Anyways, I thought it all went well. Tevin loves his primary teacher and she's always doing fun things in primary. He's the only little kid and there are two other boys (8 & 11). Today was a little sad because Tevin's new fish "Nemo" died. Austin said we couldn't just replace him so I guess we will have to just try again later. But what do you expect from a $0.28 fish from Walmart. Not a lot! An older couple in our branch had a bike with training wheels and they let Tevin borrow it, so now he has to ride it NON-STOP!! Austin rides his bike back and forth to the park with him and is getting a ton of exercise. Tomorrow Austin is taking us to Marquette for a fun Memorial Day!!!! He's so sweet! Hopefully we'll be able to find some fun things to do. I know I'll have fun. Austin promised to take me to the craft store! I knew I loved him! : )

Four to beam up!!

When we saw the blog the Sara-Lynn posted we thought, "WHAT A GREAT IDEA!" So, we thought we would start one too! It's so nice to go on and see what everyone's doing and since we are so far away from everyone, it will be perfect! We will work hard to update it and get pictures on it so you can see! We love you!
