Rainy May

 Our house has turned into a nursery. Nathan got a rockin' deal on plants last week. If you're looking for plants or landscape, he's your man!

We also have a big concrete landing out back. If we didn't need to extend our house, I would love to put some patio furniture and have outside BBQ's, since its deciding to be all sunny and warm this week.

Speaking of sunny and warm, I wrote that too soon as its supposed to be raining this whole next week!!! 

We got netflix and have been watching A LOT of Swamp People, about two episodes a night. I LOVE this show. I watched a documentary on alligators too. I remember seeing an alligator on the grass at our hotel in Florida, on this trip

OH netflix. You will make me become a hermit... But since its NOT sunny yet, I will allow it :)

My new license plates came!

I am going on day 7(!) of NOT cracking my knuckles/fingers. So far so good, unless I'm stretching and it accidentally happens. It's hard! I keep thinking about it all day, especially when I finally sit down and try to relax, thats all I can think about. 

Garth gave me a gift cert. to get a pedicure for Christmas and since it was nice out today I went and got it! I LOVE the color, I kept saying I didn't want any flowers/design but she did it anyway so I went with it. 

Here are a few things I am loving right now...

Neuro drinks. 

I bought this at Petrich's, they don't say what flavor they are but they all taste the same, kinda like grapefruit. The only difference is that some are more fizzy than others. It's supposed to make you happy, or better blood flow, or sleepy, depending on which one you get, I have yet to notice any effects but they are yumm-o!

Some of my favorite food blogs. I love reading these and getting ideas for making dinner. There are only so many ways to spin a chicken!

Our Best Bites

Favorite Family Recipes

Pioneer Woman

My friend Katie is having a scentsy party online, I have never used or smelt any flavors so I'm not sure if I want to do it or which flavors smell good/bad. Let me know if you've tried them or any favorite scents you have. I love candles and smelly things I just don't want to waste money of ones that don't smell good!!

Almost Forgot!

I forgot to include the pics of my car, Nate's motorcycle, and other random things, I got a little excited.

Nate's motorcycle. He took it for a spin around the roads out here but he's gotta get his endorsement and insurance before he can really take it out. 

Nate took Bryan Whitnah on a ride, then a ride in his truck, and then on the quad and taught him how to ride it. I think that may have been the best day in his life so far. :)

Have I ever said how much Paisley LOVES Weston?! She will lick his face for days and he loves it. Tucker and Weston were up with Nathan talking one day and they went to walk back down to their house. Apparently Paisley wasn't finished yet and scooted down to their house to find Weston. She's a funny dog, and what a cute kid!

And this is my car. 

Ok, until next month..haha

March and April, Into May

*Paisley*

Has been quite the farm dog. She wakes up every morning at around 715, unless she sleeps with us, which happens probably more often than it should :) She spends about 12 hours running around outside and when she comes inside, she goes straight to our room and passes out for the night on the bed until we scoot her off to her own bed. Today she rolled in something stinky so I scrubbed her down three times and she is still a little stinky. She stopped eating her food for a few weeks so she is now an organic puppy and eats really expensive food, but she loves it, so at least she's eating! She keeps telling me she wants a little bro/sis so we're thinking about getting another dog. Hopefully this next month we can make her dreams come true ;) OH and I almost forgot, SHE TURNED ONE! Her birthday was April 2nd, and we forgot, but I bought her lots and lots of toys!

*Nathan*

Working on the beautiful lawns and landscaping of the farm house. He put his truck on craigslist to see how much he could get out of it and apparently it was a lot! I didn't know why he wanted to sell it, but he did. He bought a good work truck from Hector, whose working with him, and fixing it up as we type. 

He is taking math and a job search class, once he finishes those, he will take one more math and another specialty class and be ALL DONE! He bought Chuong's motorcycle, Honda Shadow, and has been drooling over it, waiting to drive it. He is taking the class to get his endorsement with Chris H and Billy. Then we need to work on getting out concealed weapons and we will a couple of shootin', ridin' crazy peoples.

I guess nothing too exciting goes on with me; I am just working. We sold the Passat :( sad day. Nathan was worrying over it and I figured it would break sometime and when it did, we wouldn't have money for it. SO we sold it. 

I was very sad, so sad that I broke the door as the people were coming to buy it. I was looking behind me as I was backing out of the garage and thought "hmmm, our house is falling down! How weird." Then I realized it was ME who was crashing into the house!!! I pulled it back in, tried to shut the door and it came right back at me, then I scooted to see what Nathan's face looked like but he was still moving his truck so I couldn't see and I just thought, HE'S GONNA KILL ME!! Luckily he didn't and the people still bought it! OOPS. After about 2 weeks without a car, I was getting tired of looking at the same ones on craigslist, I told Nathan we were going to buy this one and I didn't care what was wrong with it. It was cheap too and turns out, a pretty decent car. Good thing since we bought it at about 11:00 at night. I was done looking at craigslist, I don't know HOW Nathan looks at it everyday.

Driving to Utah

Us in the CABELAS in UT

Paisley pooping Easter eggs!

That is all that happened in the last months, we eat, sleep, and poop just like everyone else, but we watch cool videos, so here's one I stumbled upon, I like the otter or whatever it is. You should watch them all, because some parts are dumb, but most are really funny.
