Home and Labor Day Weekend

Here are some pictures of our "trailer" house, as promised :)

I debated about putting these up for two reasons

1.) The house wasn't the cleanest when I took them. But then I decided "Aw heck! My house is never gonna stay clean long enough for "clean" pictures anyway"

AND

2.) I don't want this to be an excuse for people that they don't have to come visit because they have "already seen the place".... So you can only look if you still promise to come visit.

Blake has always wanted a yellow house, now he's got one :)

The set up is kind of funny. This is the front door, but if you really pay attention to the layout of the house this should actually be the back door. So our back door has a doorbell. Anyway...

Our front "nook"

Betty pulled up one day in her golf cart and said "What a cute little nook you have."

Isn't it though??

Here is the entry way when you come inside...

and then you walk right into our living room...

(im still working on curtains and other decorations)

then if you walk up those stairs in the living room you pass through the small kitchen and dining room and then walk into the play room... As you can see it also currently doubling as a clothes line. We don't have a dryer yet! Can't tell you how much I miss my fluffy towels!!

We also were almost a whole month without a microwave but we have one now :) So funny all the conveniences we can't live without!

For labor day weekend we had yet another family reunion! We have been to three this summer! And I am really sorry that none of them were with my family :( I mean don't get me wrong, Blake's family was a blast to hang out with all summer, BUT I wish my family would get together more often for reunions or just planned party's in general. (Yes, that was a stab to my family, hopefully it will motivate them to put something together :) )

Maycee enjoyed her weekend with Avie at the reunion!

They have turned out to be the best of friends!

Aren't they adorable?!

We had some good laughs at the reunion. One of which involved these "Mobys" (Moby's are these wraps that are made to hold your babies)

Some of us were finding other things to hold in them... like adults! It was great! Can't wait to do it again next year.

Maycee finds some many things to do at home. She is always playing with her neighbor friends Jacob and Ellie and Betty too. This place is great for her!

The stairs inside are fun for the girls too. Maycee will jump from the very top occasionally. And I did find Lydia had climbed the whole way up yesterday. That girl can get around, even if it is still an army crawl.

This girl's favorite breakfast is eggs. Im not sure if even half of it gets in her mouth but she LOVES to feed herself.

Blake is staying busy with school and he did get a job. Don't know how long it will last... he is making minimum wage :( Better than nothing but he is WAY better than that! He is working as a lock smith but really all he has done so far is scoffer(sp?) a tech around.

No church callings yet... But we hope they will be soon :)
