Here we are!

It has been awhile since I have posted and a lot has happened. I am now on my Spring Break!!! Woo hoo! I will use these pictures to steer my update.



Lily is a crazy little girl these days. Can you see how ornery she is in this picture?? :)



Matt, Lily, and I went out into the snow. We just played in the front and back yard. We pulled Lily around the yard in the sled. Although that was fun, I am sure glad Spring is around the corner. I am sick of snow on the ground.

We are still trying to sell our house and have shown it only a couple times to possible buyers. We are getting good at cleaning up real quickly. A couple weekends ago, Matt and I went to the horse races again with some friends. Before I left to take Lily to my parents', Matt's family came to Grand Island. They were meeting at our house to pick up Landon. So, Lily and Landon got to play for a little bit.



Fun in the tent!



We didn't get to see them long because I needed to get to Gibbon. Lily then saw her other cousins, Mav and Guire. She had fun with them at the new house.



Mom and Dad's house. This is the view from the front entry way into the kitchen. That door is the pantry. The cupboards were in, but not hung up yet.


This is a view from in the kitchen looking at the electrical closet and that wall will be Mullen's wall. Mom has plans for that wall and I am anxious to see it when it is finished.


Mom is busy working on painting her wood work. It is all going to be white. This door is in the kitchen.

So, their house is going to be awesome!

Matt and I had fun at the races, but won nothing!!! We had a nice supper at a steak house. On Sunday morning, Matt and I went to church with my parents and nephews. Lily absolutely loves those boys.



On our way home we saw a bald eagle! How beautiful!

This next week we found out that the house we liked was sold. Ughhh! So, we decided to build! We drove to Doniphan that night and looked at the open lots. We picked one on a corner at the end of a culdesac (I don't know how to spell that). The next night we looked at StarHomes in town here to find which floor plan we like. We finally decided on one and they are hoping to start digging our basement tomorrow. YIKES!!! I am very excited, but nervous at the same time. We are more nervous about not selling our house. I am sure someone will come along. Cross your fingers!

This week at school it was READ ACROSS AMERICA. I had some activities set up during the week. They also earned a bead party, so we had fun for that too. They had oobleck, marshmallow and tooth pick towers, paper airplanes, Dr. Seuss musical books, and more. It is hard to believe it is now Spring Break. I get the whole week off.

Friday, I had forgotten that Heather was going to be gone. So, Matt quickly called Chris S. and she was able to watch Lily. Lily had a lot of fun and was calling Chris, grandma, when she got home. So, Lily has about 6 grandmas now. :)

On Saturday, we went to Omaha for a little vacay. We got a cheap room at the Hilton downtown so we could take Lily swimming. Silly me, I forgot my camera. So, I used my new phone.


Lily in her new swimming suit. She had a ball in the water.

We ate at Spaghetti Works and had an early night in the room. We had a great breakfast in the morning and went shopping. Lily was not a happy camper in the Furniture Mart so we drug her out and left. How long will these terrible twos last????

We then went to Scott and Eliza's to see them and their new house. Aunt Gigi came to see us too. Again, no camera, so I only took a few pics.




The start of my Spring Break! I have been doing computer work and just plain relaxing. AAHHHH! Everybody should get a week off from work. :) I attached this next video of Lily singing Jesus Loves Me that quickly turns into her ABC's. I just smile every time she sings. She is driven by music and she has such a cute voice. :) Enjoy!
