David David David

So I found the Swan Princess at walmart for 5 bucks so I bought it. Well David saw it and he liked it but was probably not a good idea to get it because now one of his favorite words is frog. But he cant say it very clearly in fact he says another word very clearly instead. Yea I never thought that that 4 letter word sounded anything like frog but david does and we laughed so hard when he said it that he thinks it is a funny word now and goes around the house saying frog over and over. We knew we should not be laughing but try and refrain yourself it is really really hard. We finally did yesterday when he came it saying it. It was so hard but he hasnt said it since. hopefully he wont say that word anymore.
You know you kinda feel dumb saying Honey, please dont ever say frog again.
So Taylor is perfect she sleeps right through the night now she is my little angle and huge blessing after my difficult blessing of David.

IT'S A BOY!!!

Here are some pictures to show you exactly how much it rained the first is the road infront of our house and if you look for the brown spot in the second that is our garage:) so the little creek next to our property was a raging river for a little while.

California

Well, it's been almost a full week here in California for Marshall and I. We are in San Jose and it's beautiful here! I now know why it's called "Sunny California", I don't think that there has been a single cloud in the sky the whole time we have been here. As far as work goes, we have had somewhat of a slow start. We have both only made one sale, but we have a new week starting today, so we can still make plenty of sales. Yesterday, we went to the beach for a pick nick with one of our cousins who is here selling as well, his wife and two of the other guys. It was so beautiful! I think that we are going to go back to the beach tomorrow morning so we can actually go swimming. I'm way excited about that! But anyway, I need to clean the kitchen and get some lunch then I probably ought to get going so I can make some sales! I love you all and miss you!

Happy Birthday Keith

Happy Birthday Keith, We all love you and and so grateful that you are part of this family! Hope you and Marshall are having success in sunny California.

Adventures of Ralph B. Bolt

Grandpa got Ralph working (again) and Dale and Joseph took it out for a test drive. It was working pretty well so they took it on the lake. It worked fine - part way- then it quit again and they had to row, row, row, their boat! I'm sure it will be quite sometime before I am ready to go for a ride in R.B.B.

Help!

Ok all you creative people. I took the plunge and bought a vinyl cutter to make vinyl lettering to put on your walls, plaques, cars, etc. I'm going to hopefully have a business with it. Where I need your help is in a name for my business. I want something that I can set a website up with too. So, all the obvious ones are already taken - for example Wall Words, On the Wall, If Walls Could Ttalk, etc. So if any of you have any good ideas.... Something to do with words or letters or something. I thought of Lettering Simplicity - and that one is available. What do you all think? Here is an example of it on the wall.

I miss grandma and grandpa.

I know that sometimes I have to share grandma and grandpa with those of you who live a long way away but I just want them to know that I cant wait for them to get home I have a huge stack of heritage pictures of grandma and her family that I want to have her tell me about. And I missed going to her house this week. And I miss grandpa too, I really really miss him right now cause it is blooming hot in our house and we have to wait till he gets home to fix our AC. Missouri finally started to warm up this year. Dang it! I hear taylor making little noises to get my attention I better go. Hurry home grandma and grandpa. I MISS YOU

Our News!!!

So we have some great news!!! Josh and I recently bought a house! We will be living in Fordland, Missouri our land borders Josh's parents with a creek in between the properties and we have a little over an acre with a little house on it. The house has 2 bedrooms and two bathrooms with a good size kitchen and living room. We are going to add on to it in the future so that we can have more room. There is a 2 car garage with a shop in it and we will be repainting it for sure because the color is awful! but we are excited. oh and i almost forgot we have a fireplace!:) I cant wait to get home and start decorating it.

Fun Fact

Mikey is now officially a walker. He really started doing it last week, and now he doesn't hardly ever crawl anymore. And Xander is the most smiley baby on the planet. I can always get him to smile at me.

The boys are so cute. Today when Daddy left for work, I was sitting on the couch holding both the boys and Daddy started to say goodbyes. First he kissed me, then Xander, then he said, "Mikey give Daddy Kisses" and he did it! It was SSSOO adorable. So later I went up to mikey and asked if he'd give me kisses. He just smiled at me and went back to playing with his toys. Then later he went up to Xander and kissed him twice on the top of the head...and he still didn't kiss me...but when he kissed him it made Xander smile. Totaly cute! Finally before he went to bed I did get him to give me a smooch....but that was it. I think the best part was him kissing Xander. It was SSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOoo sweet. He loves his brother.

Tom's Graduation

Tom and Jeff's Band

Pictures

This is a picture of my babies, probably my faverite one.
This is David after he got into Lindy's makeup and put on some maskara This is Taylor after David put green nail polish on her eye. He loves Taylor to death (I am afriad that is exactly how much he loves her) He was just putting makeup on her like mommy puts on herself. It was really quite scary though. But later we laughed.

This is the happy couple in the water at stockten lake right after they go engaged. He told her that there was a bonfire that night and to meet him there. He was the only one there (so she thought) he had tiki tourches and roses to make an aisle she walked down into the water and he told her to come get the rose he had from him. It was a rose that the top popped open and the ring was in it. Then after they were offically engaged we all (a bunch of family and a friend) came out of the dark to congratulate them. It was pretty romantic. This is them with their wet pants on. By the way the date is Aug 8th or 9th that Thursday what ever one it is. It got quite in my house and that can only mean one thing David is into something. This time he was in Taylor's cradle with her. Just like this.
