Sunday June 14th - We met Papa, Grandma, Riley, Uncle Scott and Aunt Stephanie at Denny's for breakfast. The plan was to go to a Car Show afterwards but it wouldnt stop raining. Instead we went home and played with Kadence, luckaly she loves playing in the rain (and so do the kids). Later in the day the rest of the family came over for Sean's Birthday Party, it was STILL raining so we had to play inside, no pool party this time :( Sean had a blast ripping through all the presents, and he is currently sleeping with the truck that Grandma bought him, he's probably still scared that Uncle Scott might take it :)
The kids had a fun busy weekend and they went to bed without any comments tonight.
Saturday June 13th - This morning we picked up Kadence and brought her to her new home!! It was her first car ride and she was scared so she sat with the kids for a little while. Sean had fun sharing his car seat with her. After we took her home we went off to Uncle Scott's work and dropped off our car for some work. Uncle Scott joined us for lunch at Burger King then we played at VIP. Later in the evening we took Kadence to her first obedience class, she slept through a lot of it but we still learned some and have a few things to work on before the next class. Well it was a long, but exciting day!
Saturday June 13th - This morning we are picking up Kadence. It's been a long 2 weeks and the kids are ready to finally bring her home.
Friday June 12th - Miranda is graduating from PreSchool today!! She has been practicing all week and is excited that Papa, Grandma and Mommy are coming to her school today to watch the celebration.
Sunday June 7th - Last Tuesday we picked out a puppy, Kadence, she is a German Shepherd and will be coming home with us on June 13th. The kids have been talking about her everyday since we first saw her so we went back today for a visit. We also brought her a collar and a toy to play with.
Yesterday we went to another Home Depot Kids Workshop, this time Riley and Aunt Stephanie joined us. Afterwards Papa, Stephanie, and Riley joined us for a walk down our street to visit some yard sales. In the afternoon we finished filling in the big hole that Papa dug up for us. The sump pump drain pipe was laying out on top of the grass before and now it's buried nice in the yard. Today we started on our next project, replacing the porch windows and painting the wood. The old porch windows were missing so many of the glass and screen panels that the rain, snow and cats would come right into the porch. Of course the kids also played in the pool and in the yard, but they did help some :)
Friday is Miranda's graduation from Pre-School. They are having a little ceremony at school and a lunch party. On Sunday is Sean's birthday party and next week my little baby is turning FOUR!!
Wednesday May 6th - Miranda is all registared for Kindergarden!! We talked to a few teachers and got a tour of the school.. Miranda had so much fun and is really excited about starting school. While we were there I found out that they have Pre-K... there are not many spots so they take names and then have a lottery drawing. I signed up Sean and we will find out in June if he will also be going to school this fall.
We also picked up a flyer for Girls Scouts.. Miranda is old enough to be a Daisy. She said she would like to join so I'm going to check in to the local troop and see if she can join.
Friday May 1st - Wow it's already May.. the year is going by fast! Last weekend we went fishing, watched the Firetrucks practice, painted the shed and played at Papa's house!! This weekend is going to be nice so we are going to play outside alot and hopefully finishing paint the trim on the shed. The kids are really excited for Saturday morning.. we are going to the Kids Workshop at Home Depot, this time they are making a Wheel Barrow. Last month the instructor said Sean could come if he had an adult with him (They normally need to be five). Miranda invited Papa to come with her, so I can help with Sean.
On Wednesday Miranda has her registration for KINDERGARDEN!! She will be starting in the fall. The local elementary school has full days and half day Wednesdays. Miranda is so excited, specially about riding the school bus. Sean is mad that he wont be old enough to start school this fall, and Miranda loves to rub it in his face.
Sean is going to be 4 next month! He loves riding his bike all the time and is a little dare devil on it. But he is very good about wearing his helment.. even when he's not riding the bike as you can see from the pictures :)
Sunday April 19th - Yesterday morning we went to the Kora Shriner Circus with Papa at Riley. Everyone had loads of fun and the kids are already talking about going back again. Afterwards Papa came over to the house to help us get ready for a shed that coming tomorrow (hopefully the weather holds out). For lunch Miranda, Sean and I ate the Great Falls. The kids always like playing there and its close to the house.
This morning we went fishing for awhile, we tried out a new fishing hole near Grandma's house. No fish bites but we did catch some little baby fish in a net. In the afternoon Papa dropped off his truck and we got a load of dirt to start leveling out some more low spots in the yard. The kids stood in the back of the truck and helped shovel the dirt in the wheel barrow.. of course they got ice cream for all their help :)
Tomorrow is Patriot's Day and the daycare is closed so the kids are spending the day with Grandma and Papa!
Sunday April 12th - Happy Easter!! We plan on eatin candy all day and then going to Grandma's in the afternoon.
Last Saturday Miranda went to Home Depot and made a Birdhouse. She was so excited about it, she wore her apron for the rest of the day! In the afternoon Papa took us and Riley to See Monsters Vs Aliens.
Thursday April 2nd - The kids have been pretty busy this past month. As you can see in the pictures we went to Jokers again. The kids picked out fish tanks, Sean found a cute little new tank that now has two goldfish. Miranda got a ten gallon tank and she has slowly been adding fish.
On Saturday I am taking Miranda to Home Depot to build a Birdhouse. The first Saturday of every month they have a Kids workshop and Miranda is now old enough to go. Both the kids love going to Home Depot. Sean's mad that he isn't old enough but he's going to spend the morning with Papa and Grandma.

The weather is finally kinda warming up... It's been in the 40's. Most of the snow has melted so we have been playing outside a lot. Sean is doing really well riding his bike but Miranda is having a hard time peddling.
Tuesday March 3rd - Saturday Miranda and I went with Grandma to get our haircuts. Miranda had so much fun and even picked out her own haircut out of a book. Sean spent the morning with Papa and made a trip to the post office. Yesterday we had another snow storm and the ids stayed home from school, three day weekend.

Tuesday January 13th - This weekend Papa came over and we worked on moving the washer and dryer out of the bathroom and into the backroom, our new "laundry room". The kids, specially Sean tried to help a lot. The took down some of the paneling and colored all over the walls :) Riley even came over for a little while and helped. Even though Sean had a lot of fun he kept on telling Papa that he broke our house!

Wednesday December 17th - Yesterday after work the kids and I went to VIP and saw Uncle Scott working!!

He loved all the cars and tires.

Monday December 8th - The kids did great for their first week at school. They fought with me each night because they didn't want to leave. This weekend we made a big dent in our Christmas shopping and Riley came over to play last night! Today the kids were back at school and still excited about their new classrooms.
Monday December 1st - We just had a long 4 day weekend. Thanksgiving was at Grandma's house. The kids made gingerbread houses and watched the Macy's Day Parade.
Today was the kids first day at the new daycare. Miranda was a little scared at first and didn't want me leave.. Sean found cars to play with and didn't even notice that I left. When I picked them up at the end of the day they didn't want to go home, they were having so much fun!! They both had a lot of good things to say and can't wait to go back again tomorrow.

Sunday November 2nd - I just added the finished pictures of the Living Room. Last weekend Mom and Dad came over and helped distract the kids while I paint the Living Room. Today I bought a rug, curtains and a bookcase to add some touches to the room. Now all I need is to replace the ugly light with a ceiling fan and I'm all set with the room. As you can tell from the pictures the kids are just so happy that I brought the stool into the room.
