A Little Update on Life

As usual, I am behind on my posts! I don't know where the time goes, but it sure is flying by fast! Last year we started our annual girls trip. Well, this year we decided to go to Tucson Arizona! We thought the weather would be perfect, but boy were we wrong! It was cold and rainy for most of our week there! Needless to say, we did a lot of shopping! However, we did get one day in at the pool (the day before we left)! We played a little tennis, went on a hike, had a fire almost every night, and ate lots of fruits and veggies! We ate out for dinner a few times! Being that I am pregnant, I didn't really have much to shop for (at least for myself), so I was the fashion consultant and ran back and forth to get the right sizes! I had a good time and I was able to get the things on my list for my boys and husband! The only thing I bought for me was some earrings, a little jewelry hanger, and the cutest GIRL diaper bag ever! I was very happy with my purchases! I had a wonderful time and it was great to relax and have some bonding time with my sisters, sister-in-laws, and mom! I am already looking forward to our next girls trip.

While I was away, Josh and my dad stayed home and watched the boys! I think they had a really good time, but were ready for mom to come home and man the house again! I was so happy that my dad came to stay with Josh and the boys! He helped Josh plant our garden and we were both so thankful for that! They also installed a new water heater and that was a big chore, but we love having lots and lots of hot water!! They also headed up to see Grandpa Jensen and helped him with pushing cows, castrating goats, check water and poppy got to shoot the big 416. They had a great time and the boys loved being with their grandpa and poppy! My parents brought their little dog, William, and I heard that he loved getting dirty and chasing the cows! When mom is around he isn't allowed to get dirty and stinky! I am really glad that they had such a good time. Josh took Poppy to our little fishing hole, but I don't think he was very impressed because they didn't catch anything. The boys had fun throwing rocks in the water and got a little too close and ended up falling in the water! Luckily the water wasn't too deep and all was okay!

I feel so blessed to have a great husband who looks forward to spending time with his boys while I am away on my girls trip! I think it is a nice break for the both of us!
