Last Weekend

So last Saturday it was 97 degrees here, and I not having air conditioning in my Jeep couldn't stand it any longer. The top HAD to come off. We were planning on going to Selah community days that day and Tiffany had a little running to do so I prepped the top for removal while she was away. As soon as she got home, with a few twitches of my nose and a change of Tiff's jeans the top was off. Ah to feel the open air on my face again. It also seems, just like the boat, it tends to put Mackenzie to sleep.

The next day, around 9 in morning Mackenzie began to fall asleep on my lap. This posed a problem because her normal nap time is 12. If she sleeps this early her schedule gets off and she becomes super grouch later in the day. So I, not wanting super fussy kid, began bugging her and tickling her to try and wake her up. Well i guess she didn't like that. She gave me a quick slap across the face and found a spot she could sleep uninterrupted.

The Saga

The saga continues. So I got the horrible screeching sound on my Tahoe fixed on Monday. It was a simple and cheap fix thankfully. It was the U-joint, which, like I said, is simple to fix but if I had let it go it would not have been. But what's done is done. While the Tahoe was in the shop getting checked out, they also found a few other small repairs. Imagine that. So for now, we are safe, which is what counts.

The Curse

So there is this terrable squeeling sound comming from my car and we don't know where the sound is originating from. Sad, I know. We take it in on monday to see what we can figure out. Keep your fingers crossed that it is something simple and small and will only cost me some headache. Why, oh why do these things happen to me? Why?

Fancy Fence

It's all done! The fence, it's all done! The guys from Ellensburg Fence Co. came and stained the wood on Monday. It's sooooo pretty.... Not only did we get the fence, but we cleaned off the back patio. Wow, we got a lot accomplished. We also bought a set of wood chairs to go on the side of the house where I've been planning a peaceful area complete with gardens and water features. I'm super excited.
Having the fence up has also given Zeke that much more room to play. And Mackenzie thinks that the whole back yard is "Zekie's house" because now the yard is surrounded by wood like what Zeke's house was. I say was because Justin took it down. Zeke hated it anyway, and it was just taking up space.
So all is good in the world. It's sunny and warm and life is great.

Bling Bling!

This year will have been eight wonderful years since Justin and I have been together and five years since we've been married. So what better way for a husband to show his love for his wife and the mother of his child then by buying her something shinny? Well, Justin did just that. I now am the proud owner and wearer of a new diamond ring that symbolized my marriage to my wonderful husband and father to my baby girl! I picked it up yesterday! And now I can't stop staring.

SOMEONE LOVES ME!!

A Busy Day

Well, yesterday started off as usual, but ended up eventful. The first thing that I saw when I came home was a nearly completed fence. The guys where just putting the finishing touches on when I pulled up. Although they will be back on Friday or Saturday to stain it, it's done! We are super pleased. They did a great job!

It's About Time

Well, it's hard to believe that we've been in our house for almost four years now. So it's about time we put in a real fence! We where supposed to get one two years ago, but we decided on a boat instead. You know where our priorities are. That's okay. We are okay with it.... So we have hired a company out of Ellensburg. They actually started this last Tuesday and will finish this next week. I'll post pictures soon. There isn't much to see now. Just a few posts... But it's exciting. No more chicken-wire!!!! We are moving up in this world one bord at a time.
