So Alot has been going on since i was last on here. infact i think the last time that i logged on was like a year ago, but anyways since then we have accomplished a lot. WE FINALLY FINISHED OUR HOME WHOOP WHOOP! We did it! I knew it would get done, however i had no idea how long it would take. When we had our first home built for us we had a contractor do it. It only took like 6 months. When we decided to build out home Adam and I kept thinking we can do this. WE CAN and adam thought it would take a while, while i kept saying it will not take 1 whole year come on. Then we met the city of phoenix where they will not give you a permit on a home for a whole year in itself. Adam drew up the home plans. He did it all with his dads help. It was fun at that point it was like no i want a bigger closet or i do not like that lets change it. When we finally had the home plan that we loved we turned it it and got rejected 3 time talk about a heartbreaker. Anyways we got it passed after a year and started building in march of 08'. And we did it all. The demolition, digging, plumbing, waterlines, concrete, footings, installed doors windows, painted, flooring , put in toilets, bathtubs, sinks, showers, cabinets, trim, EVERYTHING. If you can name it we did it all 1856sq ft we did it. Man it was like forever. But now we are in and we are in love with every inch of it what a huge accomplishment. Props to adam and his dad for doing most of the work. So now i will have to post pictures of it.
After all this time Andon is now 4 and still in love with spiderman. He was in t ball and he loved it. We can not wait until soccer begins in March. He is the funniest kid Just the other night we put him in bed and we heard footsteps coming down the stairs, so adam yelled up you better be in bed or i am going to take a toy away. Not 2 seconds later we hear little pitter patter up the stair and into his room and he yells down to us it must be the holy ghost because i am in my bed. Oh my gosh we laughted so hard.... He is the funniest kid ever. He comes up with the craziest things ever. I got mad at him for something he ran in his room and came out like 5 minutes later and said "MOM i have been speaking to Jesus and he wanted me to tell you that you are wrong and you need to tell me sorry." man oh man good times...
Then there is Ava..... What can i say. When she was first born and getting bigger i thought she is not like andon at all. She is quiet and kept to herself.NOT oh man she is just like Andon. She walks around telling knock knock jokes all day. She loves making funny faces. She just loves to be silly. She is also such a little girl she has to have her toe and finger nails always painted and if they are not she will not get off the toilet until they are pretty. she always has lip gloss in her pocket and a brush in her hand. it is just getting to be so fun I am loving it......
Adam is still working with Hendricks and Partners a realestate brokridge firm in Phx az. He manages the marketing department and has been there for about 7 years now. Adam is the Young mens president in our ward and the youth basketbal couch. He loves those young men and loves his calling. He is amazing at it.
And then me. I work for the hospital here in Phx. I schedule procedures for all 7 of the banner hospitals here. I really love it. I am in the Young Womens organization at church as well and have really come to love my calling it has been about 3 years in this calling for me.
Well hopefully that was a good update. I am really going to try yo do this more...
