Hello Blog

Hello blog and bloggers. Sorry for the lack of news lately but we have been in a no school zone here at the house lately and it has been quite nice. Brett had his last test on Monday and it officially out for the summer!! WooHoo! 2 whole months free of a little school stress. I am so proud of him. He finished out the year great!! Only six more yrs honey. 6 more yrs and then 20+ yrs paying off those 6 yrs.....

Brett has had a few late night though at work. He never works more than 20 hours in a week, but this week seems to be the one exception. He has been gone every night this week until 11 sometimes 12am. Poor guy hasn't gotten to enjoy much of his time off just yet but itsa comin'! Brett went out and bought a HUGE prime rib for a "we made it through yr one" bash for Saturday night with all of our fellow 1st yr families here in good ole des moines.

We took the kids out today for some swimming at the Y. Sad I can't find my camera because the kiddos had a blast. Cason is fearless in the water...Adalie too. I really need to get her in swimming lessons soon.

So funny thing, there are birds living in our roof. Ya, IN our roof....like right in the fan outlet thingy in the bathroom. They are so stinkin loud. A nest full of babies. How do we solve that problem eh? Deal with the annoying sounds for the whole spring/summer? Or deal with the guilt of kicking a single mother and her babies out of their home??

I am excited for the summer. Bretts study desk is being turned into my scrapbooking table until school starts up again. I got a lot of pressure on me to finish up some picture projects around here. Poor Cason doesn't even exist past 4 pages of a scrapbook. Adalie has about 200 pg already and she isn't even 4 yet.
