And the Construction begins!!

Ahhh!! The construction has finally taken off on our house. It is so exciting to know that not to long from now we will have a place to call ours. Were so excited and can't wait to be in our house. my mind has been running a lot lately and Damons too. He thinks internally of the house as he builds it and make sure all the measurements are right, I think of all the exterior things like what color I want this wall, I need this and this and this. It is kind of becoming a headache. Really! Oh well, we have to keep focused and try to be energetic about it. This is how far we have come. Fondatoin is Complete, Check!!
Cavry has been so silly lately. I love to watch as she grows and learns new things. She loves babies and she loves to cuddle them and take care of them. She really does a good job as you can see she hangs them up side down, bites their feet, usually bangs them on the ground and drags them on the floor. She gets mad at us if take them away or if Casia rightfully claims whats hers in the matter. She is too cute. She has started walking now she almost has a little gitty up in her strut. It is so cute, she gets excited and her mind must go faster then her legs. She says Momma, and Dadda all the time. We just have to mention dadda and she can't stop saying his name it is almost like she goes on a hunt for him yelling dadda. When I hold her, and she says momma, she will usually pat my face of lay her head on my shoulder and pat my back all the while saying momma, momma, momma. It is just amazing to feel the feelings we have when we are so blessed with these little wonderful spirits. It truly is what life is all about.

Where has the time gone?

I know that I have been terrible for not posting lately. So much has just been going on. We finished the month of April up with our many birthdays and finished up the month of May with all of the many school activities that were going on, leading us to our summer vacation. Yea!! I feel like the days just fly by and now entering into June. All nine of the children were able to be together for memorial day. Spouses from the northern kingdom didn't make it although we wish they could have been here. We had an enjoyable time together, with all of us. Sam had an unwanted accident. MOTORBIKES!! (very scary). That would explain why the older brothers are not in the photo. I told them to be back by Four that afternoon, and a no show. Thats what happens when you don't listen to your youngest sister. ( check out Becca's blog for details) All the grandkids that were here had an enjoyable time as they rose early and went to bed late. That is how I remember my vacations in Tropic.
It will be 7 years in September since mom has passed away. I think of her often and hope she would be happy with me in raising my family. Memorial day is such a good reminder of all the ones who have past on. I reflected on the memorial days in wyoming. Every year we would go to the Greybull cemetary and think about all the family there. It was fun to get together with family and be able to visit the cemetary.
