I'm Back

That is right, I am back. Well the kids went to St. Louis this past weekend with Grandma Debbie and Grandpa Wayne. They had a blast. They went to the Zoo and Grant's Farm on Friday and then to Six Flags on Saturday. They had so much to tell us when they got home. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa.
Well so far, in the month we have lived in the new house we have had a handful of storms. So far these storms suck. We lost part of a tree in the back from lighting. Yesterday, we had a tree limb from a tree in the front, land on the van. We have dents above the windshield and a cracked windshield. Jason got one estimate so far and it is just over $2,000. I don't look forward to storms at all. We have another one coming in tonight. Wish we had bubbles big enough to cover our house and cars.
Well I forgot to mention how great Tyler has been at the new house. He has spent a lot of time here with just us because Taylor has been at her dad's so that she can sleep in on most mornings. Tyler goes to daycare with us and has to still get up early. At night though he has been begging to vacuum, wash dishes, and mow the yard. I am so proud of him. We will see if this continues once school starts and both kids are home full time. I predict that there may be arguing over doing the dishes or the vacuuming. Which is great that they both want to help. Hopefully, I will be able to convince them to each do one chore and then they can switch the next time.
We got some more painting done this past weekend and some tile laid in the laundry room. Have I mentioned I love our new house. We have so much room. Hope all is well with everyone. I hope I didn't shock you to much Grandma. I realize it has been a long time since I blogged twice in one week. Well try to get pictures on here soon. Tyler just fell asleep and he still needs a bath before the next storm comes.

So why wasn't the van in the garage? Don't tell me you put Jason's car in the garage instead?!?! Sorry about your bad luck with storms, we really haven't gotten too many bad ones down here. Hope all is well! Love you guys!!!
