What we've been up to...

When Granny & Pepaw were here a few weeks ago we drove out to Hardware Ranch to see the elk. In the picture below you can hardly tell but they are back in the field eating hay.

Isn't she getting so big, I just can't believe it!! The girls spend lots of time at the table coloring, painting, and making crafts. I think it's their favorite thing to do. Here they are doing what they do while enjoying their afternoon snack.

Last week Michael's dad and brother Kyle came to visit for a few days during Kyle's spring break. They were able to get up to Beaver Mountain for some skiing/boarding! I'm bad and didn't get any pictures, so I stole this one from Facebook. Here's Michael and Kyle at Beaver!

Oh, yeah....and one more thing....We're buying a house!!! We closed yesterday afternoon. Today we'll get the keys and move! Here we are in front of the house before the final walk-through.

So our current place has been looking like this...

lots of boxes everywhere! Elizabeth has had a bit of a hard time with it. She doesn't know what to think about the boxes everywhere and mommy just keeps getting another one to fill. Thankfully, today they will get to spend time with friends and play (with toys - since ours are all packed up!)

Yesterday I caught this scene out the window...ducks in the river, and deer over in the field.

So, here's a little tour of the new house, all empty...

I guess, the two rooms not pictured are the upstairs hall bath, and the 2nd guest room downstairs.

We are so excited, and TODAY is the BIG moving day!!! I've been awake since before 5am and couldn't go back to sleep! We'll be without internet for a few days (till it gets all set up at the new place), so I may not get to update again till then. Can't believe tomorrow is April 1st! March just flew by for us...
