Summer is coming...

The dock was put into the water this past Saturday...the boys were a huge help. Things went pretty well after they figured out what they were doing. And yes the water was Cold!!

Now time for sume fishing. We caught a few bullheads, a walleye and a perch. Then daddy fried them in a pan!Our neighbors have a daughter, "H". She loves to swing. Good thing so does Malissa. They have fun together. Our Silly dog loves going with us. He is so spoiled.

Happy Golden 17th Birthday...

My First born turned 17 on May 17th. He recieed his I-Pod stereo he's been wanting...
His friends snuck over and decorated his bedroom...

and mom splurged and made R.J his one of his favorite meals - chicken alfrado for supper, bought donuts and Birthday party ice cream for dessert.

After supper we took a smallmotorcycle ride to the neighboring town. It was a fun filled day.

Our first weekend in the new home...

April 30, 2010 we finally got to move in...Somewhat...We moved in beds and one couch that on Monday when the remaining furniture was being delivered, had to be moved to the basement. It was nice being able to finally stay in our home that we designed and we are LOVING it!!

Zach making supper...and what do you ask? What else but a hot dog of course. The same meal we had on our first night we camped here. After all the construction the poor deck...It was in sad, sad shape. But by power washing it, it came back to life!

Amazing what a little water will do!!!

Green Grass...YEA!!

I am so excited for the rain that is coming this week. The sod needs to be watered and this is saving us some money. I love the green grass!! Can't wait to enjoy it.

Gymnastics...Get On Your Feet!

May 1, 2010 was Malissa's gymnastics recital. This is Malissa and her friend getting all dolled up for rehersal. Yup rehersal cuz that's when the pictures are actually taken. Flip!! or what ever they call it....

The Class...This is the group of girls that car-pool for the season.

This is the actual recital day. See no curls. They only lasted an hour. about as long as it took to put them there. She did great and it's always fun to watch.

Almost Complete...Finshing Touches...

We officially have doors...no more construction doors...This happens to be the door to the garage.

I now have sinks in the master bath...but as of today still no toilet. Who knew finding a bone colored toilet that is TALL would be one of te hardest things for us to pick out. LOL! The counter is Corian and I'm thinking I'm gonna love it!Here is my shower...ohhlala!!And the carpet is complete... ...we chose the same for the entire house. Less decisions that way.
Bar height patio set...tho it came shorter...Randy attatched 2 - 6x6 to the

bottom. Perfect height now to see over the railing.

Last september at te Clay County Fair we purchased a must have...a hot tub!

This is the sink to the main bath room...Which will end up being Malissa's Bath room.

I Love it!! Itsbeen fun!
