Great News!!!

Chad and I found out this morning that we get to close on our construction loan today at 3pm. Yeah!!! We already have the concreat people telling us that they can start as soon as the second week in June. So once we get started you will be seeing a lot of pictures of the progress. I can not tell you all how excited we both are. With all of the stuff that Chad and I have and all of the stuff that the kids have we can no longer fit into this current house. We have been putting in a lot of work with the current home to be able to put it on the market to be able to sale and get bills paid off so that the only bill we have when we move in is the house payment. I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.

Summer Weather

The weather here in Blackfoot this weekend has been hot. Yesterday it was mid 80's so my mom and I took the kids to Walmart to get a new kiddie pool while Chad took a dumptruck load of yard cleanup to the dump for free dump day. I really did not think that Tessa would like the pool all that much but she really loved it. Today our weather is in the high 80's with a light breeze. So all in all it has been a really great weekend.

Aunt Debbie thanks for the clothes they are really adorable. And Grandma thanks for the new hair bow. Everyone loved it today.

The Before Picture

Hello every one this is Chad I cant let Kass have all the fun of Blogging. So A. Deb here is the best picture I can find of our front porch before the new Deck. You can see Jeff on the Old Deck and Pat My Dad, and my Mom I think is holding Miss. B. This was at Paxton’s two year birthday party.

New Deck

Well here it is the finish work. I really think Chad and Chad Kuhns did a really great job on it. I really think it will bring a lot a curb appeal to the house and it makes the proch look a lot bigger than what it really is. We really like it so we hope that you all like it as well.

Happy Mothers Day

I hope that you all had a Happy Mothers Day. My day was great. We all were up by 8am. Chad went to Walmart to get a few things and by the time he got home the rest of us were dressed and ready for our day. Chad came in with roses for me from Paxton, Tessa and him, then came bike trailer from Chad, and then Paxton took me outside and showed me the bike that he got me. To say the least I got spoiled this year. Once everything was set up I took Paxton and Tessa on a ride around the block. Let me tell you what a work out you get by pulling two kids along behind you.

Saturday was a great day also. My mom came up to watch the kids for us so that Chad and I could go to Lowes and get wood for the new deck. We came back and all of us went outside to help Daddy build the new deck. We got part of it done and then we took my mom to PBG's, a resturant here in Blackfoot, for mothers day. We did the rest of the deck except the railing on Sunday morning.

Well here are some pictures my mothers day gift and the new deck.

Sibling Love

Tessa has learned to sit up on her own pretty well now all though she still tends to fall over a bit. In the past week any time that I sit Tessa on the floor to play with a toy, Paxton comes and sits right beside her with his own toy. I think that it is so cute how Paxton and Tessa interact with each other that I just had to post a picture. I think that they are really going to be great buds as time goes on.

Tessa really loves to have Paxton beside her. She has already started in on if Paxton has something in church then she tries to take it from him. It is so funny just to hear Paxton laugh. They are so cute with each other, but of coures that is because I am the mommy.

Tessa has also started to really babble. Her new words (sounds) are dada and nana. She is starting to get so big and is just really a sweet little baby.

Park Time

Paxton, Tessa, and I had a really great time at the park this afternoon. We went and got lunch from Arbys and meet Sari, Harlee and Trayton at the park for some fun. It was really great for me to be able to get some adult conversation, since all that I have during the day is a 2 year old until Chad comes home from work. Paxton was so excited when I asked if he wanted to go to the park with Harlee. He couldn't wait. The weather was pretty nice, not to much of a breeze. It was a little cool but the kids didn't mind. Even Tessa enjoyed being outside. I even got a slight sun burn on my face.

Its Done!!

The bathroom tile is in and done. It really looks great. Chad and I are so glad that we had some one come and install it for us. It only took the installers two days to install and it would have take Chad and I a lot longer than that. We like the tile job so much that we are really thinking about having the same guy come and tile the new house for us. The installer also told me that he can get us a really good deal from wall to wall carpet for all of our flooring needs and he would do the installation. Well any ways here are a couple of pictures of the new tile.
