Playing Catch up

So much to catch up on but that is the story of my life... Always behind haha. Well it has been busy april and May. April 1st was a big day in our family because Jeff and I got a nephew! It is so fun to have a baby around and he is as cute as ever! His name is Carter. Congrats to Tyler and Ali on being new parents! We love you guys! Here are few pics.


Then later that month Jeff and I got some babies of our own, Well... Baby chicks that is. 16 hens and 2 roosters. Our 6 chickens we have now are getting old so we decided it was time to buy more. Jeff loves to take care of them. We have a chicken coop in our backyard so its nice. I have not bought eggs in 9 months. So when these chicks get big enough we will have eggs coming out our ears!

We also did some painting in our house. We painted our bathrooms and kitchen. The kitchen was not my favorite. I had this great idea to paint it yellow... well after it was all done I hated the way it looked. It was like the biggest eye sore. So they very next day after spending hours on it, Jeff helped me repaint it. We did it the same color as the rest of the house, Nothing exciting but It looks good. Maybe one day I will go crazy again and want to paint it a different color, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. I have some before and after pictures but I will have to post those later.
Anyway, april and may was full of baseball games and lots of working. My little brother Alec was a senior so I tried to go to a lot of his games. Its hard when you work because their games are right when your working but I was lucky and got to see a few games.
Jeff finished up school at the end of april and got Straight A's in his classes. I was so proud of him. He works so hard so I was so I am glad the long hours studying paid off. He totally deserves it. Now he is enjoying the time off of school until fall and working landscaping. He loves it. I picked up a half day at work for a few week in may and june so that has been cool. I started assisting again for 1 and a half days. I have missed doing that. Oh How could I forget april is the busiest month for birthdays in our families.
April 1st- Baby Carter
April 10th- My Brother Christopher
April 19th- McKailey (niece)
April 23rd- Jeff's Birthday

So we have had a lot of fun stuff going on and are excited for the summer. I can't take the cold anymore so it better stay warm. Anyway that is all for now until next time!

How exciting! I'm glad you got to immediately repaint instead of having to live with the yellow.
