LOL!! OMG!!!

Thanks to a family member that has posted examples of these cartoons on thier blog. These are hilarious!


These are the tools needed for nursery!! Too bad the church doesn't provide them for you like this bishop did.

Graduation

Graduation was this weekend. Stewart and I both graduated from Idaho State University. The ceremony was three hours long!! The funny thing is I bet the speeches only lasted about half hour, the long part was watching everyone walk the line and get their diploma. After the ceremony we had everyone come to our home to have a BBQ. It was fun to see our family and friends and show everyone our new home. We had a great time visiting and we were so happy that everyone took the time out of their busy day to watch us walk the line.


This is only half of the students that graduated. The newspaper said there were 2000 graduates.

The Newest Member of our Family

This is the newest member of our family. Her name is Penny. Stewart and I got her on Monday. She is seven months old. We got her from a women that takes in pets who do not have a home or animals that the Humane Society have. She is sooo much fun and still has a lot of kitten in her.

Busy Month!!

This month has been very busy for Stewart and me. We moved in our new home the first weekend and spent the next few weeks unpacking. I have spent the past two weekends at dance competitions and will spend this weekend and the next in Utah for more dance competitions. Stewart has been busy with work and has been traveling to Blackfoot a lot for work. School has been busy with my new 6th grade class. 6th graders are a lot of work and they sure do keep me working and thinking on my toes. This is my last week with student teaching and then I will officially be done with school. I can't wait. I also can't wait for graduation. It is coming soon and it seems like a dream to know that school is done.

The house is finally done!!!

We are very pleased with how our home turned out. Can't wait to spend time working on the yard.

Update

Since Danyiel has signed up for Facebook she has been neglecting the blog...so I have taken the responsiblity (just this once) to update everyone on the house.

Last Friday the 10th we signed the papers to close on our house. It was a little scary but after signing our names about 100 times we are now officially home owners. We love our house and can't wait to finish the yard, well we have to start first but we did get the trees planted this week and now we just have sprinklers and grass to put in. This may sounds wierd, but I am looking forward to the yardwork, especially mowing, and the garden. Danyiel keeps telling me she is not going to work in the graden because she is not that type of person and she doesn't want to pull weeds. Oh well I guess I will have to do all the work.

We will post more pictures of the house when we get more time. The next three weekends Danyiel has dance competitions. Today in Malad and the next 2 are in Utah.

Danyiel will finish her student teaching at the end of April and then graduation is the 9th of May. Announcements are being sent out today. Hope to see everyone here. We can't wait to finally be done with school.

GRANITE

The granite finally got put in yesterday!!! It looks soooo good. I am so glad we were able to do this up-grade. The color looks almost black in these pictures, but it is actually a really pretty green. The plumbing is also finish, expect for the sink in the kitchen. I have also started packing this week and I am having fun, knowing that this is it and we are moving!!!

This is the desk in the kitchen. Stewart and I couldn't decide between this color or the one that we picked. So we decided to put this color here and the other color is the main one.

Looks good!! We are also starting to get our appliances in!!

Here is a close up.

We are so happy with our kitchen. It has turned out the way we had hopped!!

The House:)

Yea!! We had another great week with the house. The carpet is done and they have started putting rock on the outside. The electrician put all of the lighting in. Yea, we have light switches and plug-ins!! Granite will be installed on Tuesday and so will the plumbing. If the weather stays nice this weekend the driveway and the sidewalk will be poured Monday.
