Nice Week

We had a nice week last week. 

Quiet and we were able to get a lot done.

A friend from work gave Paisley this blue horse.  It is a bouncy horse.  It goes everywhere with her.  George even buckled it in the car on the way to Aunt Christine's house.  Unfortunately, we can not bring horsey over to Aunt Christine's house anymore because Daisy (their dog) thinks it is competition and barks at it all day.

 Swimming is going well. 

 I believe Paisley might just pass Tadpoles this time around. 

She loves picking on her teachers Holly and Brett. 

I took my midterm Friday afternoon and did fabulous!

Went to the temple Saturday and had a great day. 

I have the best husband!

He encouraged me to take as long as I needed.  

There was just two of us that ended up going.

It was nice talking with the mom of my best friend from grade school.  

Sister Lantz is the best and always has been.

Last, but not least we bought our plane tickets to Spain!!!!!

Only 6 more weeks.

 

Kona is the Best

I forgot to mention that Kona is a genius.  If you remember a couple posts ago our big 50" t.v. in the living room that was only about 5 years old died.  I was not a happy camper. 
Kona in all his brilliance fixed it for us. 

All we had to do was get one part and he did it!  Amazing! 

Thank you brother-in-law.  We love you!

Now, what are we going to do with an extra t.v.?????

I am back...

I ran out of room in the picture storage and did not have time to figure it out.  I wasn't slacking....I had a valid excuse.
Anyways, this is what we have been up too.  Yes, reading massive amounts of history books for class.  Midterm this Friday!!!!

We purchases a new dryer and washer.  Love them! 

I told Paisley it was cold outside and this is her solution.

Found this cool new product.  It was easy to use and tasted good.

Paisley enjoying a beehive cupcake.

Giving Abbey some love.

We took advantage of the sun.  I tried to tell her to put shoes on, but I was denied.  A true Hawaiian.

Daddy helping Paisley roller skate.

Paint is Paisley's favorite thing right now.  She is really good.

I found white shoes for Easter and picked up the same pair in black.  I love pediped.

Found two paisley print dresses.

Walked my first 5K on Saturday.  Had a great time.

I am sure there is more, but after 2 or 3 weeks I can't remember it all.

Green Hat

George went to a class last Monday night through Tuesday night.  On Monday night, Paisley and I had some girl time.  We were in our pj's by 5:30 and we snuggled the rest of the night.  However, not before we took these fun pictures of Paisley in her new hat.  She is a kick in the pants when she wants to be.

Love this girl!

Fabulous Weekend!

Our weekend was fabulous, but it didn't start out that way. 
Here is our new t.v.
You ask why do you have a new t.v.....well the old one died.  The repair man came and told us it would be a $600 repair.
So, George decided that a new t.v. was only $1200 and had a lot more features like running the internet through the t.v., netflix, etc.  He made a quick trip up to Bellingham to pick it up and there you go.



Kona and George decided to fix the old 50" t.v. by themselves.  Here they are taking out the bad board.

Later this day we took Tallie and Tony out to dinner for fixing Kyanne's laptop for FREE.  Thank you Tony!
We had a great dinner in Anacortes at the Rock Fish Grill.





Sunday rolled around and this was the best day ever!
When I was 21 I went to South Africa for a month to visit some friends that I had met 6 months before.
They were in the States on a intern program with a company called Logos.

Anyways, I found them on facebook not too long ago.

Jannie was living in Bellingham with his family and Derrick was still in South Africa.

Derrick had some work to do in the States and decided to visit Jannie and ME!!!!

Jannie came over with his lovely wife and two kids.  Derrick is single ladies and he would love to live in the states!

Anyways, we did a BBQ and had tons of laughs and stories.



Here is George grillin up some grub.  We had ribs, steak and chicken. 

Paisley making a face before they came.

This is her sad face.

Her angel face.

Can you believe I did not take any current pictures.  Derrick is suppose to send me some of his.

This is an old picture of when I was in South Africa 14 years ago. 
This is Jannie and myself.
So young.

Jannie and me again.

This is Derrick.

I can't remember when I have had such a great visit.  It brought back so many memories.
I am so grateful to have great friends!

Derrick has invited us to South Africa...I will have to take him up on that offer again!

Well....I have been slacking on my blogging...

Well, I have been slacking on my blogging lately.  Time has been flying by.  Let's recap.

At work I won a wellness prize.  It is a girls fishing pole.  Paisley will be set for fishing on Opening Day and at the cabin now.  It is pink and all.

Back in February Eric asked George to cook all the chili for the Hot Dogs and Rods.  He made a fabulous chili and also entered this car into the derby.  He had a great time.

We finally found the t.v. for the game room that is in progress.

I found this gorgeous dress.  It is so cute!  Can't wait for Paisley to wear it.

I had my final exam and passed the class with a score of 990 out of 1000 points.  My next class starts next Monday.

Discovered that we like moon sand better than playdough.  George picked up this kit for Paisley.

We played outside in the cold.

My gorgeous little lady.

Had cousins over for dinner.  Here is David.  He is almost 1.

George had him in tears with giggles.

Cousin Lynnsey and Paisley playing.

And of course...swimming lessons.  Paisley is on round 2 of swimming lessons. 
She is getting better and enjoys it dearly.  She is such a little lady :).

She can climb out herself. 

She loves her teacher Holly.

Love it!

I am sure there is more like date nights, movies, etc, but I can't remember it all.

We are doing great and we hope you all are too.
