Where in the heck am I supposed to type with all these pictures in the way?!!
So this loveley hole in the ground is not a grave site-it's for the way cool, hidden, secret, underground propane tank. Did you know that if it's in a low-lying place with lots of water it can actually float up out of the ground? I learn something new every day. Come to think of it, lately I'm learning tons of something news every day-could be why I feel a bit overwhelmed!
I had a complaint tonight at Stake Conference that there wasn't anything about me on here (I love you, Lisa), so here you are. This is really what there is about me right now. Life is more than we can handle these days. I have come to realize that the "dream job" as a school nurse is a bit tougher than I dreamed it would be. In a moment of weakness a few weeks ago I signed us up for 4-H thinking that it would give the kids something to do in the summer time. Upon finding out that it gave them and me lots of somethings to do all year long I snaked out of it. So now I'm trying to find ways to simplify our lives and find the joy. I'm hoping this blog will help. We really are hugely blessed. I hope you enjoy the updates on our lives.

Check it out!! All my dreams are coming true-a bath tub I can sink into...aahhh...



Bill has been amazing through this whole process. While I feel completely overwhelmed at times and I definately show it, he has remained cool and calm. He's been working at his paying job about 30% of the time and the rest is spent between the house and our little rental. He gets the kids ready in the morning and takes them out to school, whether he's working on the house or in town on someone elses house. Since he is building most of the house on his own, he's been back and forth between different projects. We were hoping to have the siding finished before the cold weather came, but now it's on hold to run the gas line for the propane tank before the ground freezes. Then there's the plumbing lines that have to be put in before all the siding goes up-something about holes in the outside of the house, I don't know. Like I've said before, I make a way better nurse than a builder. I try not to ask too many questions, it just makes me dizzy.
