Fun Friday

Friday, September 30th, 2005

I’m off from work early today. So that makes it Fun Friday. Well not really cos I have to work at Bed Bath and Beyond tonight, and Im gonna spend most of the day cleaning because all the boys have been tracking in mud on my floor cos it has been raining the last few days. So I have to mop then clean my carpet again.

My pregnancy is going good so far. I have been getting morning sickness but if I eat something it seems to go away for the most part. I dont have alot of energy though, so Im real glad I get a break today between my jobs so I can at least take a nap. And Chad has been great in helping me do things around the house, including the dishes :) What a good boy.

Later on that night Jarrid Rhodes and I went out to try and get a ornery coyote that beat the Marshal up the night before. I talk more about it on Pass The Ammo. We didn’t get him.

An Announcement!

Friday, September 23rd, 2005

Carrie took a little test tonight. And she passed.

So according to this little magical stick… there’s a bun in the oven.

She didn’t want me to post about it just yet, but I coulden’t help myself. Since this is our first, we’re both excited and a bit nervous. We would have liked to let babies come along at least a couple years from now, but it seems that God’s will isn’t always ours.

We’re not sure how things will come out financially, since we’re both poor white trash. j/k. At this point in time neither of us have health insurance from our jobs. And from what I hear from the Rhodes family… babies are a wee bit pricey!

But we’ll just have to consider the birds, and trust God.

Things To Come

Thursday, September 22nd, 2005

I’ve got a re-design in store for this site. I’m making some changes, cos this site is hosted on the same server as PTA. And with the constant threat of dirty liberals hacking my site cos they hate my awesome usage of violent free speech…. I’m switching things over to my FWD server.

In doing so, I will also upgrade to the latest version of WordPress, and I figured I might as well throw a new design up while I’m at it.

Update ยป

Comments are now working! Thanks Heath.

Still Searching…

Sunday, September 18th, 2005

We still have not found a church up here yet. Its hard. I have never had to go through this before, because growing up that was always my parents job. We went to visit a little church out in Athol today, which is about 20 minutes away. I liked it. It was alittle small, but Jarrid says that’s the size he is looking for. We are looking for a Presbyterian Church, and most of them out here, are real small with older people as the members. Which is hard for us, cos there are only a few if any younger people there. So we wouldnt be able to connect with them as well.
But we will see what happens, today’s church was going on my “good” list. But there is always next Sunday to visit another church.

Party at the Colemans

Friday, September 9th, 2005

We picked up Erik from the airport on Wednesday night, so we are having a great time. The boys went to the lake yesterday, although they said it was freezing, so they only stayed in for a few. Last night I made all the boys some dinner, and we headed over to the Colemans house for some spa time. Then today I dragged Erik along to shop with me. We got some smoothies, but anwways, Erik loves to be dragged around shopping.

Also I got a job as a preschool teacher!!! Im way excited, I cant even explain it. I have my own class, so today I went there to meet the kids and look over the classroom. Cos the teacher that is running it now, is moving back to California. So I cant wait to start. Im still gonna work at Bed Bath and Beyonds a few nights a week, but I will see how long that goes, I dont know if I can handle 2 jobs.

Labor Day BBQ

Monday, September 5th, 2005

So this morning my buddy JJ Honeycutt came over with his new little baby. His XD-40 Caliber Springfield Armory Compact Pistol. We picked up Jarrid Rhodes and headed out to the creek to go break ‘er in.

After shooting things up a bit, JJ had to go, so we all went up to my folks house for some BBQ Chicken. Then we hiked across the street and down the horse trail to see the canyon. Beautiful sunset this evening.

Labor Day Fun

Monday, September 5th, 2005

Summer is almost offically over. Labor Day is pretty much the final straw of summer events. Then the leaves start to change, and it gets freeeeezing at night. So Im sad, cos I love summer weather, I hate being cold.

But yesterday we had a BBQ over here with the Colemans and some friends. We played Volley Ball and cooked some chili dogs. It was good fun.

Then today we are going over to the Colemans house for a BBQ and to jump in the spa.

Oh yea, and Daniel swam around the Peir today, so maybe he will give us an update on how he did. Im sure they took some pictures, but we dont wanna see them speedo shots!!!
