Random February Photos

We took a trip to Rexburg and ended up coming back with a “new” used truck. Rigg’s brother Dirk got a new truck and was needing to get rid of his other one. He offered the idea to us and we took him up on it. Rigg has been wanting a truck, but can’t afford it so this became our V-Day present. It is in really good condition and Rigg is one happy daddy.

February

We had Rigg’s friend Shawn come visit this month with his kiddos. Peyton loves playing with Luke, Taylor, and Linkin. Went to PoJos and let the kids play. When I mean kids I mean the two dads!

Steelers game! January 23rd

We have to look cute for the Steelers games. Heather and I made our shirts for us and the kiddos. Can’t remember if they won or not, but at least we look cute!

Happy New Years

I work for a doctor who has a cabin in Tamarack and was kind enough to let us use it for the weekend. We brought Beau’s family and had a great time sledding, eating yummy food, sitting in the hot tub, and just relaxing. Happy News Year! Here’s to a new year, may we have many more wonderful memories, be healthy, happy, grateful, and remember why we are here!

Blog is under construction!

As you can see I have not posting much since July 2009!! (This post was actually done in May 2012)  Life got ahead of me and the blog got put on the back burner. My husband has been bugging me to update the blog, but with work, new baby, and nursing school how was I going to find the time to do it. Well my friends it took the example of my husband. The day of my RN pinning he figured out how to update it (which he has never done before)  and left a sweet message to me. And since then I have been back dating with hopes to print it into a book. Since a don’t do any other other journaling or scrapbooking I thought this would be the perfect way to go. I have got journaling and photos all in one spot and I want my kiddos to have these memories and photos. My goal is to finish back dating 2012 and have 2011 done before the baby comes in November so I can have the whole year of 2011 printed into a book for our family Christmas present. I am pretty motivated right now since I don’t have a job and I have time on my hands so we will see how this project turns out.

4th of July 2009

Our original plans for the 4th were to go to Rexburg and visit family. That didn't happen due to the fact I was back in the hospital on Wednesday until Friday because of the infection I got after my c-section. It was bad enough that I had to be admitted for IV antibiotics and a placement of a wound vac, a machine that sucks out all the infection. So, thankfully Rigg's mom and sister and her family decided to come to Boise for the the 4th to help us out without us even asking them. They were such a big help since I have not been feeling well and have been in pain, and I have a 2 week old. They cooked, cleaned, and helped with the baby. We are so thankful they came and can't thank them enough. We ended up having a good weekend. We ate good food, hung out, played games, laughed, and watched fireworks from our back yard. We had a pretty good view. There must have been several shows going on in Star and we were able to see all of them.

Update

There has been a lot going on the past few weeks and I have to be honest that I have been too lazy to update the blog. Today marks 6 weeks since the passing of our dear Tasche. Rigg and I are doing our best to keep busy for the most part and trying to spend time with Keola as much as possible without bugging him. We think of her and talk of her often. As were are in the car driving Rigg makes comments that she is pointing her finger and he can hear her telling him to be nice to me. Its an inside joke that we have always had with her. She was always on his case about being nice to me and do anything for me that I wanted. I miss her giving him a bad time. I kept telling my self that I would not sit around and keep thinking about all of the things that I could of done different, but easier said than done. When I start to have those days where I do nothing but think of her and how much I miss her, I remind my self of the knowledge that we have of the Gospel to know that we will be with her again. No greater feeling of peace fills my heart than that gentle reminder.
We are still keeping busy with school and work. This semester has been a busy one for me. I am trying to play catch up and hope that I have done everything I need to do to graduate in May. With the baby on the way we are finding a way to expand our space and that has lead us to finding a house to buy. We are in the underwriting process right now and we are crossing our fingers that everything goes through so we can move in before the baby comes. It is a very exciting and scary feeling to know that we might be owners of a house. The doc says that the baby is doing fine only ten more weeks to go!!!
