Justin's Many Projects

This weekend Justin decided that we needed to organize the garage. So off he went we worked Sunday evening and all day Monday and got all the shelves built. Then this morning Justin and I got everything orgainized and now everything has a place. Connor really enjoyed riding his bike around with all the open space. I love how well it looks and all the room I have now to get the kids in and out of their car seats. Stay tuned for more of Justins great projects:)

Honey Do's

Justin has been in and out of work since July which has really in alot of ways been sucha blessing. He was able to spend alot of time with Austin while he was here, he has really got to spend alot of quality time with me and the kids, he has been a huge help around the house and my absolute favorte part, all my "honey-do's" get done. I saw a spice rack I really liked in a magaize and I told Justin that I wanted it, he said "I can build you one better than that one for alot less". I said "well great! lets do it". That was over a year ago. He just never had the time to do it. Until now! I love my new spice rack!!! He really thought it all out. He measured all my spice bottles to customize all the different sizes and to make sure the shelves were big enough to fit the big bottles from costco and the little bottles for baking. I posted it on my facebook page and alot of my "friends" wanted one also. My bestfriend asked if there was any way she could borrow him for a few days, she has some projects for him:) I am working on quite the "honey do" list for him. I have asked him to build the kids a play kitchen for their Christmas present. I will keep you all posted on the progress of that project. I am so impressed with my spice rack that I absolutely can not wait to see his ideas for the kids kitchen.

Happy Anniversary!!!

After 4 years of marriage I got a wedding ring!!!! I love it! We had a wonderful anniversary. We rented a hotel room at the hotel that Justin's sister, Teresa, works at and got an amazing deal on an amazing room. We went out to P.F. Changs for dinner and took some time and strolled around down town Boise. Then went and did alittle shopping for the kids and picked up my RING!!!! It was an amazing get away and it has been an amazing four years. Four years really isn't along time but when you think about all the big live changing events that have happened in the last four years it is really amazing. In four years we have moved three times, had 2 children (One of which 11 weeks early and spent 60 days in the NICU), the passing of a family pet, the gaining a family pet, becoming a first time home owner, Justin graduating form the Electrical Appreniceship Program, me starting my own busniess and so much more. What an amazing journey!!!! We are truely gratefull for all our many many blessings.

Connor the Farmer

Connor's carrots are growing and growing. He is so proud of his carrots and loves to share them with mom, dad, grandma, grandpa and sometimes even sissy:). They are actually really good carrots. I have made quite a few different things with them and they really have good flavor. I have steamed them, made soups and stews with them and cooked them along with roasts. Everyone really seems to enjoy "Connor's Carrots"
