Live life to the fullest!


I wish I had as much fun as a teenager as this kid is having.

Disco Skating in Orem on a typical Saturday night.
The thing to do...go to DI to buy clothes, get dressed up crazy
as you can and have a blast!

These kids know how to have fun!

The front gable

Uncle Keith has been working on the front gable this past week.  Starting by putting up the posts on either side of the steps that Mike has been framing.
Remember when I took that vote for this part of the enterance? 
Go HERE to see which one we chose, it's #2.
There he is, 60 something, and up on that roof!  Uncle Keith is our everything guy!
Especially our Electrician! What a pain it is to figure out all the lighting in the
house, where we wants lights and where they will switch from, which ones together, which ones separate...etc....what a pain!

He is a great man!  Love him! 
Well, stay tuned for the pictures of the completed front gable!

Kiss the girl



Last night after Stephen had finished playing his first baseball game of the night and was getting ready to start the second, he suddenly remembered that he had a Choir concert at 7:30 so he told me to pick him up at 6:15. I arrived just in time to see him hit the ball and get the first RBI for his team. We then quickly left to go home and get ready for the concert. So, here he is with all the boys singing "Kiss the Girl" from "The Little Mermaid" They were great! I am gonna try and get the video up here. It's a bit fuzzy off and on but they sound great!


It worked!

Enjoy!

Places to walk

Today Dad worked on forming up the sidewalk in front of our house.

And Mike worked on forming up the first step from the front door.

Here's a closer view. 
 The steps will start with this one and then gradually get
 smaller as you get closer to the walkway.

Last week Dad worked on forming up the patio that is outside the back sidedoor.

 Eventually this area will also be patio outside the french doors along
side the garage as we get further along.

We also got the fireplace in!  And the windows on either side will eventually have window seats in front of them. ( I am really excited about those...they were my idea.:)

Here is a rear view of the house outside Mom and Dad's front porch.

And Mike continues to work on the downstairs bedrooms for the boys!

Now that the weather is getting nicer I am getting more excited to see more progress on the house in the near future!  So stay tuned!
