New Couches

Moss and I were sick of having a sofa that was not big enough for us both to lay down on. We also wanted something a bit more durable so we started the search. It did take too long until we found this set that we love. Even better was they were on sale for a pretty good deal. We splurged and got the recliner also so we can put our other one that was so kindly giving to us from the Smiths in Brenden’s room. The recliner won’t be here for a few more weeks but for now we are way excited about these new ones that fit us a lot better. New Couches 002 New Couches 003  New Couches 004

Randomness of Late

Summer is in full swing and we are enjoying it a lot. I just wish it was not so dang hot all the time. We have been trying to keep busy by working on our backyard a bit at night when its cool and just hanging out. Someone owed us some money and instead of giving us cash they gave us this sweet Motor home to sell.Motor Home 001 It worked out really nicely because within three days it was sold! We are very excited about that! Now we can put in our backyard so Brenden doesn’t just have to play in dirt and mud and doesn’t come knocking on the back door looking like this…

Independence Day 2010

These last couple of weeks have been pretty busy. Another round of busyness started on Friday night when we bought a shed and gathered some friends to help put it together. I am not sure if they will still be our friends since we started at 6 and did not get done til midnight. It was not all our fault the shed company didn’t put the right piece in so we had to go back to home depot and trade. Eventually we got it done:) July Fourth 001

Who knew Derek could build stuff haha. Just kidding Derek! He was a pro at finding all the parts!

Supe was so done working on the shed haha!

The Crew!

The next morning we watched the Soccer game and then headed up to Bountiful for our Madi’s blessing day. Brenden was a trooper once again and only got angry a few times. When we got to Juge’s house we played in the backyard with Weed while Supe went on a 1 hour and 40 min run. He may be crazy! Afterwards we went to dinner and Brenden got his sweet balloon that he loved.

We then headed to the fireworks show. We hung out with the Family and ate some pie. Last week when we went up I packed some warm clothes for us but it was never cold. So this week I figured we didn’t need anything warm. I was wrong. So Brenden wore Moss’ church socks as leg warmers haha. It was all Moss’ idea:)

Brenden was all over the place so Moss chased him around. These pictures are pretty cute I think. July Fourth 012July Fourth 016

Our Family!

They had a sweet preshow that had people parachuting with jet packs on. It was awesome!

July Fourth 020

Brenden with his first sparkler. He actually liked it a lot.

July Fourth 023

They shoot off the fireworks on a golf course up there. It was pretty sweet. We were only like 50 yards from where they were launching them so it was a but too loud for me but Moss loved it.

July Fourth 024

We were not sure how Brenden was going to react but we soon found out. First he cried and then he just covered up his face. We tried to pull it down and he would not let us. He kept it up for the whole show which was about a half hour with his eyes shut tight. We thought he had falling to sleep but as soon as it was over he sat straight up and clapped. It was so funny!

The next day we went to the blessing and had lots of fun talking with family. Brenden did this…haha poor chickens.

My Little Buddy

Brenden and I are together from the second he wakes up until the second he goes to sleep pretty much every  single day. He is turning into  my little side kick  which I love. I hate being alone so it’s nice to always have someone around…most the time;)  

Brenden and I like to eat yummy zucchini which I was surprised that he loved!

Shelf 007

His favorite thing to do as of late is play with the pans. He will get them all out and add random things to them. Yesterday he wanted a spatula so he could stir his pretzels:)

Shelf 004

The other night Moss and I went to check on Brenden like we do every night before we go to bed. This time I noticed something a little different. He was bare naked haha! He wanted to sleep very comfortable I guess and the diaper was just in the way. Shelf 002

We both love it when Dad gets home. Brenden gets so excited when I say Daddy is home. He screams and runs to the door. Moss loves his sword fighting game on the Wii. He doesn’t play very often since he is always exhausted when he gets home from work but he had a little extra energy yesterday. Brenden loves to watch him play. Most kids always want to have the remote but lucky for us Brenden thinks that the extra rubber sleeve that came with the game is an actual remote so he plays with that on haha. It’s so funny to watch him swing it around and grunt. When I turn on the TV he goes and grabs them for us haha. Shelf 008

That’s my buddy and I sure do love him:)
