Memories-

I saw this on another friends blog and thought this sounded like fun.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together, or one of the first memories you have of me. It doesn't matter if you knew me a lot or a little, anything you remember.

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses, If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

I wonder what everyone else remembers that I don't??!! HA HA HA!!

*New things*

We went on a shopping spree and got the girls matching bed sets. The sheets are the soft cotton, they feel so nice, I want some.
Also, today I felt crafty so I decided to make some aprons for the girls. I didn't have a pattern or anything, I just started cutting and they turned out so cute. They wore them almost all day. Now I get to make some for my sister's girls too. Anyone else need a kid apron? Overall, we had a pretty good day.

Fishing!

The girls and I went fishing with my sister, her family, my brother, his family, and my sister's neighbor. We spent about 3 hours fishing. Nellie caught the first fish, her first ever! After that, Matt, Ethan, Josie and myself all caught one. It was a very fun day. Thanks to Capri's neighbor for inviting us. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Our 4th

We didn't have much planned for the 4th day so we had the missionaries over to play games. They had so much fun with us that they didnt' want to leave. They got permission to come out to gresham and have a bbq with my family. Then we were having so much fun there that we decided not to go and watch the fireworks like we had planned. While we were there my dad figured that there were enough men there, why not tear down the old shed. So between 4 guys it was down in about 3 minuets. Overall it was very nice day.

Summer....

With summer now here we are going to be very busy. The girls just got out of swimming lessons, and are ready for our pool here at the apartments. Samantha is passing up Nellie in that department. We went with Capri, Ethan, Maria, Riley, Brooklynn and Grandma Susan to the mary-go-round and had a blast. My girls could do that all day long. The apartments are crazy right now. 2 different people skipped out on me in a matter of 3 days. So now I have more vacent. The pool is keeping me busy, having to check it 4 times a day. It's never ending. We are now getting ready for Patrick to have his surgery. I will make sure to take picts so you can all see. Other than that, I will get new picts up after I take some.

Samantha's 3rd

So Samantha turned 3 on May 18th. We had a party at Cook park. She had a blast opening presents, as you can see. It was so windy that she had to pretend like she was blowing out the candles. Other than that, it was a fun party.

We're Finally Here!!

Everyone has been asking and so here we are. I finally got a new camera which will make it even funner.
Just for an update on our family...we live in Tigard and are managing apartments for the moment. We just sold our house in Troutdale so that Patrick have knee surgery at the end of June, also to pay off some debt and save for a new house. The girls are both in swimming lessons and having a blast! Today they both put thier heads all the way under the water. That was a huge step for Nellie. Samantha is a little fish and wants to take off by herself. Other than that we are just hanging out waiting for the sun to come out and the pool to open. I'll get picts up later.
