Hammer and Chissel

Last year I did a 60 day Beach Body program.  I think it was Jan. and Feb.  - cause that's always the best time to do a diet program.  It was hard and LONG and I stuck with it the entire time.  I had to take pictures of my food and work out 6 days a week.  The good thing was the workouts were fast and I just did them at home- which made it nice with little baby Luko.  Anyways, it was a big part of my life for 2 months so I figured I'd post a little bit about it.  When I was finished I felt so proud of myself- like I had run a marathon!

Gabe's Birthday Feb. 7 2016

Gabe's birthday is February 7th.  He is the cutest little guy- he can't say February, so if you ask him when his birthday is he'll say, "Feb 7th" .  We love Gabe soooo much.  He is such a positive little guy.  We had presents and cake.  And gave him lots of love. 

 

Kyle's shoulder

I never posted how Kyle injured his shoulder last spring.  Come to think of it I can't even remember how it happened.  I just remember it was bad.  The Dr. said it would heal on it's own.  He was really sad he couldn't get surgery- cause he wanted to have anesthesia.  Lol.  Kyle is such a good kid.

St. Patty's Day 2016

I usually go all out for St. Patricks day.  2016 Was a little insane after just moving.  So I had a little help from some Leprechauns.  They came and preformed their usual mischief.  Gabe couldn't believe the nerve of these Leprechauns!!! The older kids had a bunch of fun!!

Our New House March 2016

Well, we moved into our new house on Main street in March of 2016.  And we loved it.  Although the house looks bigger on the outside, it doesn't have any more bedrooms than our old house. BUT...it does have a hot tub and pool and huge 3 car garage! So, what's the first thing you do with a house like that? You get into the hot tub of course!

 And then, if your a 4 year old, you go do a dance in your old, clean, empty house.  We ended up keeping our old house and renting it out.  Good bye old house!

Moving March 2016

Ok, Well it's been almost a year since I blogged.  I have a lot of catching up to do.  But I'm going to do it.  It might be boring to some, but I want to get it all down.  We have had so many fun adventures the last year.  Let's start with one not so fun.  Moving.  We move on March 12.  I was so thankful that Athena came the week before to help me have a yard sale and pack. I love her so much.  It has been so awesome and fun to get to know her and Ben better.

Flipping Houses

I've had several people ask me- You just fixed up the house your in- why are you moving?  Well, I'll tell you- that's just what we do! I see a house as not only a place to live, but as an opportunity to make some money.   I love to buy the ugly, outdated house with good bones.  Put some love into it, fix it up nice, sell it, and make some money.   Not only do I like the process, but it's nice to have equity in a house. Although, I must admit I'm getting tired of doing it.
