Instant yard!


Mike was a darling and brought back some sod and slag from Utah when he hauled some scrap down there. We spent a Saturday laying our new lawn and 'driveway'. Josh was, as always, a big help.






















Some of the best days of our lives!

Here are a few snapshots of the best days of our life....funny thing is that most of them didn't begin that way. Isn't it interesting how a little time and reflection can change our perspective on things. I have started controlling my frustrations of situations by taking a snap shot of them so I can see, that the situation is really more comical than anything. Enjoy some of the moments I have captured.



Oh how we love our tubby time!

Josh loves to listen when you talk to him on the phone, sometimes he laughs and tries to eat the phone!

If this wasn't so cute, I guess it would be sad. It breaks his heart when I go ten feet from him! What can I say, I'm a heartbreaker!

Before we got our yard fenced in, and the chicken pen built, the chickens liked to roam the neighborhood, yes we are such rednecks! Josh would always try to sneak up on them.

One of the roosters got a hurt leg, so Josh adopted him as his new pet. He takes such good care of the bird, he throws in plenty of toys, books, and food to the chicken, so he won't be bored.


Mike sure loves his daddy time when he is home!

Josh's morning ritual is to climb onto our dresser and eat all of my silk flower arrangements, they were pretty barren by the time I got them moved!

Josh makes sure all of my soil is packed down in my pots, so that nothing dares to grow!


One of Josh's absolute favorite past times is to pull up all of our heater vents, and to stuff things inside, including himself!




Jean, this one is for you, Josh liked to hang out in all of the nifty post holes all around our yard while I was putting up our fence.


"I don't want to grow up, I'm a toys-r-us kid"...who says I can't play with toys still!

Josh loves his sandbox and plays in it at least once a day!!! Boys love their dirt.
My little ham!

Work is good!

Mike and Josh are both happy after a visit to the bank to deposit checks. Josh likes to grab suckers from the counter!


Mike tends to spend his nights in the truck, notice that it does not have a sleeper!

A big fat pile of scrap metal in Casper, so far we have shipped over a million pounds and are still going.

Loading a semi-truck with junk pipe.

By the way, does anyone need work who can weld, use a cutting torch, has a semi-truck, or is saavy with diesel mechanics?




Joshua is walking!


Joshua is walking! He took his first steps into his daddy's arms one night after work in Vernal. I have never seen a prouder papa!
