A Fun Weekend and Some Big News!!!

Over the weekend us and the Fish family drove up by Knoll Lake and spent the day. We grilled some hot dogs and just relaxed. We all had a good time, the boys especially. They were so dirty. It was so nice to let them run wild and not have to worry. It has been so hot in Camp Verde lately it was great to get away and spend the day outside. Deagan went through three pairs of clothes in one day, I can only imagine how the reunion is going to be... haha. Deagan and I got Devin and new video camera for Father's Day so he got to use it out there. He was pretty excited.



Deagan, five minutes after we were there... not even kidding.
Gosh, he looks so old in this picture... makes me so sad.

Our Family :)


Deagan and Castin on the swing that Handy Man Greg built. They loved it.







Now for the big announcement... Deagan if you would do the honors...





Yep, that's right a Big Brother. Dev and I found out Sunday that we were going to have another baby! We are so excited. Dev said that the new video camera we gave him doesn't compare to news like that. We told Deagan and I don't think he really understands but whenever we ask him if he wants a brother or sister he says he wants a baby sister... so sweet. I know he is going to be great big brother and it will be so good for him. I don't go to the doctor until July so we don't know the due date or anything like that, but I will definitely let everyone know as soon as I find out!

Swimming Lessons

Last week Deagan started swimming lessons. He has been doing so good and having so much fun. Castin and Tanner are doing it also so that has made it even more fun for him. This is his last week though so we are pretty bummed about that. It has been so nice to have something for him to do outside. It has been so hot here lately he hasn't been able to play outside as much... which has made life hard for him and I... haha... being inside all day with a two year old can be rough. Especially when you have no AC! Yes, you heard it right no AC. Ours has been broken for a few days now and it has been horrible! Thank goodness we have the Fish family. They have been nice enough to let Deagan and I spend the day at their house until Dev gets home in the evening and it is a little cooler. The AC is supposed to be fixed tomorrow so hopefully we will be able to get our of their hair soon! Needless to say there has been a lot of ice cream and otter pops eaten in the last few days. Deagan is lovin' it... Dev, Zoe and I on the other hand are dieing! Let's hope tomorrow comes fast.

Here are some random pictures of Deagy boy.

Here he is on the first day of swimming lessons, decked out in his swimming gear. What a stud!

Guitar Hero anyone?

PICTURES!

So, we have been in our house for almost two months now and have made some progress in the work that needs to be done. We still have A LOT to do though. Here is what we have done so far... painted, extended our patio, and installed new flooring (BIG thanks to Uncle Pat and Granddad :) ) Things we still need to get done are fence in our backyard, plant some grass, put vinyl fence around front yard, pull some weeds... we have A TON!... pretty much all the landscaping since we have no landscaping... install new carpet, the list is pretty much never ending. We are getting there though. We love our new home and are so excited for all the new memories we will be making here. It is the perfect size for us. It has three bedrooms, and two bathrooms. Our yard is huge, and we love the neighborhood we are in. I didn't take any pictures of the bedrooms because they are not painted, or decorated cute yet so when I get them done I will be sure and post pics. We have a guest room so if anyone wants to come and visit feel free, we would love to have you!


Home Sweet Home... ignore the weeds :) We're working on them.


Our entry way.
Notice the new flooring... we love it, so much better than what we had before!

Notice the new, pretty tile :) Looks good eh?


My favorite new things! Our brand new washer and dryer! I love them and Devin really loves them because our laundry is always done now since I love using them... we'll see how long that lasts... haha. Thanks Lorayne for getting us such a good deal! She also got us a good deal on our new fridge :) We love it too.


So there it is... sorry it took so long to get pictures up. Things have been crazy, and there is no sign of them slowing down either.
