Not much new has happened lately. Casey and I booked a flight to visit my Grandparents over Memorial Day. Looking forward to that. There seems to be a lot of fun outdoor stuff to do! Casey is continuing school. He seems to be busy all the time and I can't wait until he gets a bit of a break. He is trying to decide if he wants to take classes over the summer or take it off and enjoy it...
Mandi, Lindy and my two adorable nephews are moving to Brussels! I am super excited for them! They went out and visited and found a house to rent. I can't wait for the visits! Speaking of visit Mandi and the boys will be visiting us in the middle or April. She plans on driving from SD to IL with two boys and her father. I wish her the best of luck!!!
Well that is about all the exciting news I have...until next time!

IT'S BEEN SO LONG!!
Wow! So much has happened and I have been neglecting this blog! Well where to begin! The bathroom is for the most part done! Casey and I found a vanity that we really liked but did not like the color.. it was the last one Home Depot had so Casey did what he usually does.. bargained for the vanity. It was originally $500 but Casey got it for $200! Are you kidding me right! I love that he does this but I get nervous and walk away.. so if you ever see me walking aimlessly around a store it probably means that Casey is trying to get a deal! Anyways.. so we got the vanity and Casey did a great job gel staining it! All we need now is to find a bench or a table and we will be set!
JoDee, Kristen and Ashley visited us in November! It was so nice to see them! I took them to Amish country to show them the horse and buggies and we had a fun night out at Timbuktu! Ahh how I miss them so much! It makes me wish I lived closer or they lived closer! I miss the days in JoDee’s kitchen!
(Fun night at Timbuktu)
My Grandma and Grandpa also visited us in November. They drove from Durango! It was great to see them! We celebrated Thanksgiving together at Casey’s parent’s house. We played lots of dominos and I think my grandpa cheats! There is no way he can score on all my moves! They left on a Sunday and I was sad to see them go. We are going to try to visit them in Durango this Spring.
Casey and I made the trip home this year for Christmas. It had been I believe 3 years since I was home during the holidays. We got to join the fun festivities at my Aunt DeeAnn’s house for Christmas Eve. I miss that so much! Then we had Christmas out our house then went to my Aunt Yvonne’s house. It was just so nice to have 8 days at home with family and friends. We had a nice dinner at Bri’s house and I got to see little Hayden and Savannah for the first time. What beautiful babies! We played some games and had a great time! Just a note.. girls would have won but Bri and I wanted to keep going which made us lose.. A rematch is in order!
(My girls minus Leah who had to head back early to Mill Valley)
After our visit to Sacramento we headed off to San Diego. I got to visit Mandi and Lindy (Casey’s brother and wife) along with my two adorable nephews! What characters! It was a good thing we visited them too. They are headed off to Belgium!!! Lindy got a job there so they are heading out there in March. How exciting.. now it looks like we have a nice reason to visit.. and room and board free! I bet they will love it there and the boys will have so many cool opportunities! Plus Mandi no longer has to work and gets to be a stay at home Mommy! The best job in the world I would think!!
(The boys wrestling with Uncle Casey)
Now Casey and I are trying to get the house in order.. we bought all new interior doors and are in the process of putting those up and painting them (of course right after I finished painting all the old doors white!) We are trying to get in shape too. If we have the money and time we’d like to go to Yosemite with Kristen and Ryan and climb half Dome! Let’s hope we can do it!! Besides that we are just looking forward to hopefully a stress free year!!
