Well, I didn't take the time to figure out how post more than one picture at a time from Flickr. Maybe tomorrow. And, I will post some pictures of the sod which went in today. It took 27 minutes from the time the 3 guys drove in the driveway to the time they exited the driveway! It was an amazing process to watch.
Anyway, time for bed.

One day's work
There is a fence in the back - actually two. We didn't know there was a chain link one as well.
One day's work
This is what one day of work (not by me, since I was sick with fever and throwing up) by my husband, brothers, and parents will reap.
We are in!
Well, we got the keys and we have been living in our new house for 2 and 1/2 weeks now. Soon I will post pictures of before and after the move. Many things have changed. I am going to try and post pictures from my Flickr account...

Mark the date down in the books...
Today we are supposed to get the keys to our first home. It has been a long process, and a lot of stories can be told. It is exciting and very scary at the same time. The party starts this Saturday as we begin cleaning and moving. Here is one picture of the house.
In other news, K1 got a very cute haircut yesterday. At least, I think it is cute!
And last, a picture of Dad and his boy...

60 years
At the beginning of June, my grandparents celebrated 60 years of marriage. That is quite an accomplishment these days. They were very young when they got married - 18 and 20. So, if you do the math, they are 78 and 80 now and are enjoying life. They have 6 children, 20 grandchildren (14 are married), and 20 great-grandchildren (with one more on the way). We had a big celebration this past weekend with lots of extended family as well. A great time was had by all. Unfortunately, I didn't take more than a couple pictures. I will have to wait until I get some from others.
In just a couple weeks, we have a reunion with the other side of the family. I will keep you posted.

A2 is two and Grandpa and Grandma from Canada are here!
Here are the pictures I promised. As you can tell from the title, Grandpa and Grandma from Canada have arrived. They came bearing gifts for each member of the family, since we probably will not see them again until all our birthdays are past.
The following picture is of K1 and A2 saying "The Lord's Prayer" before their tea party...

Happy Birthdays and Anniversaries!
Happy 2nd Birthday to our A2! We cannot believe how fast you are growing. You make us laugh each and every day. We will be celebrating for the week, seeing as though Grandpa and Grandma from Canada come tomorrow. Then, next week Sunday J3 will be baptized and we will celebrate with the CA side of the family too.
Happy Birthday to my cousin-in-law, Jim. And Anniversaries to J and J in Canada, and my aunt and uncle in CA. A busy day - pictures will come later.

One Year
It has been exactly one year since I started this blog. My goal is to post more this coming year than I did this year. We will see what happens...

Sisters love brother
The girls definitely love their brother. Well, maybe they love his toys just as much...
It is fun to see the difference in their sizes now.
Here is how Nathan and I found J3 the other day. Can you tell he has sisters?
K1 is fairly proud of the fact that she can hold her brother all by herself.
A picture of J3 at one month old. He has gained 2 lbs during his month of life, and is nearing 9 lbs now.
And the last two pictures are of K1 and A2 "watching TV" (aka: the laundry basket) this morning.
