April Projects

Our house is getting closer to taking big steps in the renovation. Kenney compeletly demoed the garage. Henry was then able to come and reinforce the celing and build the floor making it ready for the plumbers. It's exciting!! The boys were also able to help with the demo. They are great helpers.
The girls hanging on the fence to talk to the neighbors.

Demo to the garage to get started on this addition!!
The boys were asked to mow a yard owned by a credit union.  It was a mess!
They cleaned it up really well!!

 

April, Gearing up for Busy May

 


She helped me getting ready for Little League Opening day by filling 50 bags all by herself.
Not the most exciting birthday, but he's so laid back and willing to help whenever
We still hadn't officially celebrated this kid's birthday and Kenney felt bad, so we sang to both of them!
After brownies we filled over 500 bags
Busy crazy day feeding about 600 people in about 3 hours

Viewing the solar eclipse at the PT department
We didn't get the full eclipse here (only about 90%) but it was pretty cool to see with the glasses
Kenney's bees are doing great after they were moved back to the country.  We had them at our house for about a year and never had any issues.  They were super tame. Then Kenney and Jason got into the hive to check on it, and it was wild!!  They killed half our chickens and were in super defense mode!!
So we had to get more chickens!! And the guy at the store gave me a deal, and I came home with 12 chickens rather than 8, oops!!

Official birthday celebration!
Kenney made a bigger home for the baby chickens until they can go outside.  Man they are stinky!!

Bentley had a basketball tournament in Amarillo.  They had some success, but they also played against some really inexperienced and younger teams...

He's 14 and no longer looks like a kid!!


She loves the baby chicks. Bentley is positive she can identify one of the white chicks. Maybe she can because no one can tell her she's wrong, haha!!


Bentley and Kenney playing around after we had gone to the temple.



Her face is always pretty funny!


Perfect!!

2nd grade was able to go to the zoo for a field trip!
A poem Kyler wrote, but according to him his teacher did most of it, but his teacher said it was his.  Who knows, but its great!!
