We have a roof!

We finally are getting our roof on and they will start bricking on Monday. The plumbers are working hard and the electricians should start next week. You can tell it's been awhile since I've posted a pic. A lot has changed.

Mason's 5th birthday

Here are pictures from Mason's 5th birthday.

It's about time...

OK, so it's been a few weeks since a good post. We have been so busy with going to the beach, Mason's birthday, work, building the house, getting ready for baby. There are so many pics to post. WE had a great time at the beach. For the first time, Mason loved the beach and sand. Hayden was ok with it, but loved the pool and is such a little daredevil. When we got back, the next day was Mason's 5th birthday, so we had family over for a small celebration. This past weekend the boys had their birthday party at a jumping place. They had a great time. It's nice we can combine their parties. Work has kept Larry and I both swamped. I try to stay with 20 hrs/week, but this past week after being gone for a week, I had to play catch-up and work some during the evenings. That was frustrating. We now have windows and doors on the house and they start roofing and bricking this week. I'll be sure to post pics of that. We spent 3 hrs today with the electrician going over where all the switches, lights, tv's, etc should go. I had thought we could do it in an hour, but it took an 1 1/2 hrs to do the main floor. This upcoming weekend, Larry's sister is getting married. We are praying for good weather on Saturday since it's an outdoor wedding. It's a very busy summer. Enjoy the pics. I'll be sure to post some from the past few weeks over the next few days.

We are off to the beach!!

Quick update - We leave in the morning(Sat) for the beach. We'll be back next Saturday. Be sure to check back to see pics and hear how it went.

Mason's Pre-K Graduation

Mason and his best friend, William, being dinosaurs.

Mason!

All of us. Me at 27 weeks.

Mason with the Churchwell's

Mason's Graduation party. Yes, Hayden got to go too.

Tuesday night, Mason graduated from Pre-K. It was very emotional especially since I'm pregnant! All of the teachers and even the directors were crying because they hate to see them leave. They sang songs and received their diplomas. Afterwards, we took him to his favorite restaurant, The Chophouse. Here are some pictures from the night.

Progress on the house

Well, here's the first floor of our house from the front and the back. There were 12men working on it last week and they were able to frame it in 2 days. They are starting on the second level today. It's so exciting! We have Mason's Pre-K graduation tonight, so I'll be sure to post pics from that. I know I keep saying it, but I can't believe he's starting Kindergarten in the fall. I've been so blessed to have been able to stay at home with him from Day 1. It will seem strange next year when he's gone everyday. Of course, I think I'll have my hands full with the other 2!

Enjoying Spring!

We have really been enjoying the warm, late, spring evenings. Last Friday night, Larry pitched the tent in the backyard and camped out with Mason and Hayden. They stayed the whole night. It took all weekend for Larry to recover from his lack of sleep. They had a great time. I couldn't believe Hayden stayed the whole time.
Other updates: They start framing the house tomorrow, so I'll be sure to post some pictures. We have 14 more weeks until Baby Churchwell arrives. Mason has already registered for Kindergarten and Hayden starts his new preschool tomorrow. He'll be going where Mason has been going for the past 4 years. He will go on Tues and Thurs. Mason is so excited to have him there, but Hayden has no clue. Please pray that tomorrow goes well for him. He doesn't like change.
