The team that shawn plays for on friday's is K & K Glass, they have been playing so hard this season. Their last game was 06/27, they kicked some butt!!!! the final score was 26-8, i can't believe how well they did, and the team they played against was the first game of the season, that game i can say wasn't as good as this last one. Way to go guys!!!! Now we look forward to the tournaments....
hey horsie...
So my nephew Graiden wasn't too fond of my dogs before we moved into my parents house, but ever since we've moved in he is the biggest terror to them and he loves it. He gets his little cars and chases them around the house, then he sits on them, pulls their ears, eyes and tails. My dogs are actually afraid of him, he comes at them so fast and is grunting the whole time, it's so funny. Anyway, he thinks koda is a horse, so he sits on her and spanks her bum and says "go." Unfortunately koda just lays there and lets him do whatever he can to her, she is so good with kids, but there are boundaries...oh well, as long as she is ok with it, so am I!
haunted house
I know it's a little late, but i found these pics from halloween and i had to put them up. Each year that we were at our house Shawn had to put on a big show for halloween night, he would go all out, expenses and all just to make a perfect haunted house. He had a michael myers mask from highschool that he would wear along with a dark jumpsuit, he looked pretty scary. Anyway, to add to his character he had a chainsaw (no chain) that he would scare the kids with. We had so many props in our garage and backyard, what made it even better was our neighbors participated and helped scare the kids, it was so much fun! The kids would start at the gate, and our neighbor Debbie was handing out candy to the kids that didn't want to go through the backyard, but the kids that went through had to go around the yard and come up to me. I had another bowl of candy, i would give it to them and then knock on our garage door, our neighbor Ed opened the door and his daughters were in the garage screaming, they were tied up, and Shawn was wandering around in the dark, no one could see him cause of all the fog and strobe lights going. As soon as the kids entered the garage they tried to run out as fast as they could, Shawn caught up to them, he would rev the chainsaw just a little bit while they came in, then he would rev it up as much as he could and chased them out the garage, even down the street. Good times, hopefully we can do it again soon!
out on the town...dinner!
Father's Day!!
For father's day we had a what you call "relax" kind of day. My sisters and I stayed at my parents house for a bit, started getting the dinner ready while the boys went out and hit a bucket of balls, along with all the rest of the father's here in Utah. Anyway, we gave my dad some money he could put toward a bike, and a putting green, and for Cal we all pitched in and got him an MP3 player to go with all the other electronics that guy has...wow..! All in all it was a very nice day! my sister and her friend brought their boys out to play in the baby pool, which was very fun to watch. My sister's friends are down from Oregon to visit and they have the cutest little boy name Taylyn, oh my gosh he's adorable!
We miss our lawn..
Since living here at my parents house we haven't been able to lay out on the grass, or even get out and mow it. They are in the process of getting their lawn in, right now there are ditces in the yard with pipes laying around ready for sprinklers. My nephew is the biggest help, he is always, always out there helping my dad, or just hanging out there by himself. He has his own wheelbarrow and yard tools that he plays around with when the guys are actually out working. Shawn, my dad and my brothers in law have been out there a lot , so hopefully with enough time and effort we can play outside soon!!!
Here's our old yard........lot's of love and hard work went into it.
Here's the new yard.....lot's of love and work definitely need to go into this one!
NEW CAR
For the past few weeks when Shawn and i would be driving in my car (little red) we could hear this loud humming noise in the engine. So we called hyundai to see if they could take a look at it, and when we get there we talk to the guy at the service desk about our problem, he asked if we were the original owners, and we weren't. He dropped the bomb on us there...he said if we were the original owners the we could have the 10 year/100,000 mile drive train warranty, but since we weren't we would be paying out of pocket. We didn't owe much more on the car as it was, so we talked about trading it in, or selling it. Well, we traded it in!! We went back to hyundai to look at new elantra's, or whatever was priced in our range, and we test drove a few of the cars on their lot, needless to say that night we left with our brand new, off the lot elantra. It's such a nice car, i feel like an actual grown up, i don't feel like a clown anymore!! It's quite roomy in there, which i am not used to, and it's more comfortable. The color of the car is called "black pearl," yep, shawn wants to get lettering on the back saying "JACK," or getting a pic of a pirate ship. I think we will leave it as is for right now. Anyway, it was very sad getting rid of little red, i didn't think we would take off and leave it that night. That car is seriously coming back to haunt me already, i see the same car everywhere i go. Hopefully i will get over it soon!

Our closing date...
We are told by the underwriter working with us on our house that we should be able to close tomorrow. They have been telling us for the past 5 weeks that it will be no later than this week, no later than next week, no later than...... just let us know already.
The underwriter spoke to our realtor's assitant and they both sound pretty positive, i guess the uw says that this has gone on too long and the date will be this fri. We sure hope so, if not....oh...oh....there will be some fists flying....aaahhhhhhh......Shawn is ready to flip. This is what he looks like when he talks about our situation and the people dealing with it.....if only he knew kung fu...ha ha!!
