hooray!!

I got to see Jaxon...or Jackson...Patrick Dieker yesterday! He is absolutley gorgeous! and tiny! and I love him already. I was so excited to see him I didn't wait for J to go with me! He is wonderful and Congrats to Jessi!! Everyone seems to be well so...yay!! Sorry, but I didn't take pictures, I wasn't thinking. You'll just have to take my word for it that he is perfect. My first day of school went well. My IPS (Info Processing Systems) class is super easy so far. Mostly because I already know how to use a computer, but it will probably get more complicated later. Like when I finally learn how to use Power Point. ( I know I'm a little behind with that one.) And we'll find out how my accounting class goes today. We didn't do much yesterday. And my psychology teacher is...well...different. She's a little too loud for my comfort...and I don't really mean volume. She's just out there a bit. And not very respectful of some rules of the high school...my class is in the andover highschool...but I'm not going to go into that. But, I think I will like psychology. It seems interesting enough. anyway, I'm going to start class soon, and I want to check my e-mail first. c-ya.

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?

Chicken Adventure Begins

Our first step towards the 'homestead' lifestyle: CHICKENS.  J and I have been researching, reading books & articles, and saving a TON of info to our Pinterest board.  I know we are in for some surprises and troubles, but we are doing our best to head them off and avoid other peoples mistakes. (J is still trying to convince me that we need to start pigs this year.  I keep reminding him that is one of the PRIMARY mistakes other homesteaders have made: being too eager and getting in too deep, too fast). So, we start our garden and chickens this year - keeping our fingers crossed that we aren't putting them in poor locations.  The chickens are the first thing branching out into our additional 2 acres.  The coop and kennel are going at the outside, back corner of our fenced in yard.  Our coop is valiantly being made from old cabinets we picked up at the local Habitat for Humanity, Re-Store.  We intend to paint, add roof, prop up on legs, and insert s...

Coming Full Circle - Idaho

Life has run us around a bit, and we have enjoyed the journey.  As Facebook rather took over our lives in regards to blogging, I did not maintain my blog.  I find, however, that I enjoy coming back and reading my blog more than I like perusing old facebook posts.  So I begin again with blogging; for myself more than anything. We have managed, since my last post in 2012, to return home to Idaho.   We spent 5 great years in Colorado!  The kids grew up with the neighbors; McKenzie had horse riding lessons from a young lady named Carrie, in Longmont; she started playing flute in 2nd grade, and in 4th she switched to playing trumpet; Ethan started playing soccer, and Minecraft (video gamer in the making).  We got McKenzie a cat named Diamonds. We got a puppy who we named Ryder.  We got new appliances in the kitchen that I love (double oven, fridge with freezer drawer, etc)!  I mention them, because I am sad to have left them in Colorado.  W...
