Summer with Grandparents

Here is how Eden's summer is going so far. She has spent her time riding her horse Bud and helping take care of the orphan goats at the neighboring ranch.

What we are up to

I have had a lot of questions regarding what Alma and I are up to these days so this is to answer all those inquiries. We are currently living in a small town in Montana where Alma is working as a delivery man while he is getting teacher certified. He has applied for a few teaching positions this coming school year so we should be moving in the next summer to a new location in Montana. I am spending my days caring for our two year old, Eden, as well has fixing our house so that we can put it up for sale. This week I started tiling the bathroom. I am also expecting to have a baby in the middle of July. Ultrasound confirmed that the baby is a boy so now we have the fun of getting new baby stuff. We are all very busy and happy. I am expecting to go to Colorado in order to have the baby since it falls during the time that we are moving as well as the lack of medical facilities here so if any of you reading this are still in my home town area you may get a chance to see me this summer.

New Toddler Bed

This is the toddler bed that I made out of old doors. It was meant to be a Christmas present for Eden but it took me longer to finish than I thought. I still have one more side to do a wood burning drawing on before it is complete. I'm happy to say that Eden slept her first night in it last night and did great. I left the original door handles and locks on and Eden likes to play with them.

Eden's Easter

Eden really enjoyed this Easter. She had fun decorating the eggs and going on an egg and candy hunt through the house.
This is a photo of Eden in her new Easter dress that her Grandmother made for her. Everyone at church loved it.

Eden Dancing

One of Eden's favorite things to do is dance. Here is a video of some of her moves.

Eden riding her horse

Eden got one last chance to ride her horse Bud before we shipped all the horses down to Colorado for a spell. She insists on holding the reins and I have to beg her to get off.

Christmas 2007 and 2nd Birthday

Eden celebrated her 2nd birthday at the beginning of January. She thinks that she is going to get the whole cake to herself in this picture. This is Christmas morning. She really enjoyed opening the presents once she understood that their was something inside of them for her.

Here she is modeling her new sheep back pack.
