He's Home, YEA!!!

Jeff made it home on April 1st, No Foolin'!! We are so thankful for all our family and friends that kept Jeff and our family in their thoughts and prayers during this last 13 months. Jeff will be taking the month of April off, not sure what he is going to do with all that time?!? He has already set up a indoor archery range, took out the large apricot tree that was falling down, been in the mountains of course, gone and visited dear friends and just enjoyed being home.

Senior Prom

My handsome boy, in a tuxedo, and of course a little camoflauge! Can't believe he is a senior and just 6 weeks away from graduation. His sweet girl, Kelsey looked just like a princess. What you can't see if she has a big knee brace on under that gorgeous dress. The other 2 couples are such great friends and I love to call them all "my kids"

Jessica and Jim

I took this picture of Jim, Jessica and Chewie. I love this picture they are so cute together.

Loving grandpa

Presley sure misses being able to "see" his grandpa on SKYPE. Now everytime my cell rings he says grandpa?

A great picture of Presley

Once again what can I say but THOSE EYES!! Likes his mama's beautiful and oh so blue. He is now getting to that lovely terrible two's part of his life. He is into everything, on top of everything. If there is something to be climbed or even not to be climbed he is climbing it. Jordan went in to go to the restroom the other day and when she came out he had climbed to the top of my piano. What a sweet little boy! Even on his ornery days, gma loves him!!

Family Update

It has been a while so I thought I would just do a quick family update.

Jeff ~ just got back to Camp Arijan, he went on his first mission into Iraq. I was very glad to hear he was back on "safe" soil. He has approx. 2 months till he will be home!! Will keep everyone posted on that.

Myself ~ got a crazy hair and decided to go back to college, I am taking Math, Fundamental Writing, Physcology 101 and Piano. With working at the Dance studio on Tuesday nights I am gone 4 nights a week.

Jessica ~ Has been out of work since just before Thanksgiving, and just got a job 2 days ago. She will be a personal shopper and chef, for a couple moving here from Scotland. She is so excited. She is going to be starting Culinary School in the near future.

Jordan ~ I having a hard time finding a job, and may have to go elsewhere to find a job.

Kolby ~ Is in the home stretch for graduating on May 20th. He is fairly confident he will get a job with The Forest Service for the summer. He now has ,2 horses, a dun filly named Dos, and a blue roan named Ace. And horn hunting starts soon. Kolby just got back from FFA regionals, where he took 3rd place in Ag. Mechanics, so proud.

Kamden ~ is such a dedicated school goer, he worries if he doesn't have an A. His first semester of high school he worked really hard to maintain a 4.0GPA. He is of course busy with dance, he helps Ms. Erica teach on Wed. and than his classes are Tuesday night 7-9pm and Thursday 4-9pm. Competition is coming up and he is so excited to go and show how well they have done.

Presley ~ is living with us full time for now, Oh the energy he takes. He is on the go from the time he wakes up, and boy do I look forward to noon and nap time. He is so smart! If you say something you better be prepared for him to repeat it. Kolby taught him to shake hands today, but when you tell him to shake he shakes his little body, with his hand in yours, super funny. What a blessing he is to have.
