Last Single Visit

Brandon came home for a few days before he gets married next month!

So fun to have him here and look forward to Sarah being with him next time.

Meat and games are a must when college boys are here.

We found a nest with 3 baby birds in our backyard.

Home church with Brandon was great.

Celebrating the birthday boys early, both end in 3.

First time in the pool, a little nippy.

Your Pie to eat and blueberries from our yard for a treat.

Miscellaneous May

 Jeff put up a couple bird feeders in our back yard and Trustys sent us a book to welcome us to the bird club:).  We purchased some furniture from friends who are moving and have a whole new room on our screen porch that we are loving so much.  Planted a few things to attract more birds and butterflies.

Yummy veggie dish, Jeff taught N & J how to change breaks and do windshield wipers, last time out in the sail boat and sold it to a nice couple who will enjoy it more, Jeff and Nutmeg watching the birds, Nick's senior neighborhood sign is up

The beautiful announcements for our cute #1s💕

Brandon and his #1

 Not much time and corona-virus craziness planning for these cute kiddos, but they rocked it!  Sarah and her amazing mama Jana thought of all the details and everything came together beautifully.

Mother's Day

Such a fun day.  Home church, a beautiful plant and sign from my
amazing trophy husband, and talked to our awesome moms.

Perfect day to be outside and play games.

They even happily took pictures with me:)

Awesome April

I've been blessed to have Tiff run with me for the past yearsish.  I love our outside time together, and a deep bond that is developed through miles of sweat and beautiful conversations.  She had a great idea to mix up our route and see the beautiful blossoms by the library.  How I love this girl!

Out with the old couch and in with the new (thank you Wades for great deals on furniture), Nick's help with puzzle, pool furniture is out and ready for warm water

Beautiful morning walks and runs

It Finally Came...

Cute Sarah making Brandon's favorite oreo cookies.

It took 6+ weeks from when Brandon ordered this ring to when it finally arrived.

Brandon & Sarah climbed the Y and then he popped the question💕

Work & Play

Justin got the summer job cleaning pools with Nick.  They are both thrilled to get up at 6:30 every morning for 3-4 days each week.  You can see the excitement, but I really wanted a picture of Justin's first day of work:)

First time without boys at home for 6 weeks - ye ha!  Thankfully Willy's was open and we could eat outside.  Then we stopped at Costco without masks, which starting Monday is no longer an option.  Jeff had to go back to work and masks were a must, so I made some out of socks from a video mom sent that we wore for the picture.  Ordered real ones from Aunt Diane so we'd have some if absolutely necessary.

Kurtis Work Visit

Kurtis came to visit and wanted to earn money and be outside.  We totally facilitated that wish and cleaned weeds and pinestraw out of all our islands and flower beds, pressure washed the house and all the cement, and put down 470 bags of mulch.  Thank heavens Home Depot was open, and we went to all the stores within an hour, cleaning them out of mulch.  Leaving at 5:30am a couple days:)

Nick missed out on the fun because he was working at his summer job.  Justin applied for a summer job in hopes he'd miss out on the fun.  He had to remind me a couple times he still had school work to do...ugh.

Looks so much better and will hopefully last for 12+ years.

Threw some pictures and play time in too.

Kristen Break💗

Easter

Home Church and Resurrection Rolls ~ Happy Day!

March Madness

Coronavacation began in March and completely changed everything.  No school (sort of online) and most everything closed, lots of tender mercies though!  Shooting with Marilee and Trish, flowers from Brandon, puzzle time

My dear friend Annie (introduced by Cheryl) sent me this awesome shirt!  We've been coaching each other and I have loved getting to know her ~ what a blessing.

My first MMG for Applied Track at The Life Coach School.  Clouds started rolling in 20 minutes into call that I was suppose to coach on.  Power went out and tree branch fell on back of boys car.  6 of our trees died so Jeff got them pulled out and hauled off, our new puzzle table from Tiff - gotta love the unexpected.
