Working in the backyard. Thanks Mom and Dad for all your hard work, you really helped us out!

The backyard after all the hard work! We are going to be putting in a firepit and a garden on the left side of the yard after we burn the pile and of course we are getting a fence for the dogs.



We love visitors, please come and visit!

We are BUSY...

Our New house. I will post inside pictures early next week! I don't think a mustache is a good look for me.

Well to sum up our last few days...

This past weekend we were in Iowa for our good friends wedding. It was beautiful and we are so excited for Brandon and Mollie to be married. We had a great time.

Monday morning Seth helped me at school and then we closed on our new house! We had four of our good friends and Zach (Seths brother) help us move. Here is a funny picture for you to imagine. Five big trucks full of stuff traveling down the road, I was leading the way in my car with both Aspen and Bella (the dogs) in the front seat. I am sure we were a sight to see.

Now it is Thursday and we are all done moving and unpacking. I even had a chance to spend a few hours in my classroom yesterday. I unpacked all my boxes in just under 2 hours! I have to finish my bulletin boards (thankfully my mom will be here to help!).

Have a fun and safe weekend!

4th of July Weekend

Seth and I enjoying the fireworks!


Beside the fact that our sewer backed up and we had a huge mess in our basement we had a great weekend. Seth's family was here to help celebrate our Independence and we had lots of fun playing in the pool, going to the parade, and watching fireworks. The dogs had fun too, but were very tired when everyone left.


Mallory, Seth, and Zach all enjoyed the pool between rain showers.


We are looking forward to traveling to Iowa for our friends wedding and moving into our new house next week!

Trip to Minnesota!

We had a great trip to Minnesota. We spent the time helping Chase (Chelsea's brother) celebrate his 21st birthday, eating lots, and enjoying family. A highlight of the trip for Chelsea was throwing rocks in the pond at Famous Daves with family friends and shopping and swimming with her mom. Seth enjoyed hanging out at the farm with his family.
We are looking forward to the 4th of July here in Missouri and can't believe it is almost July. Only a few short weeks before Chelsea can get into her new classroom and start her passion in life, organizing oh and teaching!
Have a great week!

We had a friend over tonight. Her name is Taser and she is 10 weeks old. She had a lot of fun with Aspen, but Bella didn't quite know what to think. It was fun to have a puppy around again, except for the three times she peed in the house.
