One Down Two More To Go

Joseph is finally done with UVU. BA - History (Hallelujah!)

It was wonderful to have our families there to support Joseph in this big day.

Oh yeah and Joseph's "twin" brother Will also graduated. . . don't they look smart?

Road Biking

Joseph finally got his much longed for road bike. His spring fever is now in full force and he's glum every time it rains, which it has been doing A LOT of around our parts.

Daisy is also enjoying the new road bike.

Joseph takes Daisy on his afternoon bike rides. She gets all excited when he gets out his little draw string bag that she gets stuffed into. She patiently rides on his back with her head on his shoulder from anywhere to around the block to 10-15 miles up the canyon. I also got a road bike (looks exactly the same as Joseph's) and will hopefully be joining my little biking family in a few short months.

Bad Attitude

Do you ever have those days where it seems nothings going right, everyone annoys you, and you just want to be grumpy? I'm totally having one of those days. . . . I'll blame it on the pregnancy.

Graduation

Joseph finished his degree at UVU in December and we've been waiting around for his graduation ceremony. I told him when he graduated he could get a new suit and this is what he picked:

What a good looking guy!

Baby Gear

We invested in some baby gear. . . and our baby loves it.

IT'S A GIRL!!

Due June 21st. Half way there. . . . now I'm off to sew the quilt I've been waiting for weeks to buy fabric for!

Lice. . . again?

Recently I had a couple of neighbor girls knock at my door asking if they could do any service for me. You know like "vacuum, wash the dishes, clean my house." Weird, but OK. I let them in once. . . they took out my trash and helped me fold some clean towels. I gave them a Gossner's Vanilla milk for their help and sent them on their way. They have returned almost daily now for the last two weeks asking if they can do more service for me. After the first service go round I wondered why I had let them fold my laundry with their dirty little hands. I'm not saying all kids have dirty little hands. . . . no just the kids in my neighborhood. Come by and you'll understand. No harm done I guess. Until I found something similar to this:

sitting in my living room. A carnival prize cheetah? Now the cheetah shown above is clean and nice-ish looking. The actual cheetah sitting my my living room however, had a couple of holes in the head and neck leaking little beads of Styrofoam stuffing on the floor, smelled like cigarette smoke and dog urine and I'm certain was crawling with lice. Yes I said it lice! Upon asking Joseph why such a nasty thing would be sitting in my living room his reply was that our nice little service oriented neighbors girls had brought a gift for our baby. How lovely. The garbage can was very grateful for my offerings today and Daisy and I are now off for our 5 baths of the day.
