Garden

 

 

I put a drip system into my garden. I am so excited! It was so easy to install. It will be so easy to water the veggies now too.

New Barn

 

I am so Excited about our new barn. Mark and I went down to Cedar City over Memorial Day weekend and bought this barn. Mark, My dad and I took down this barn in a wind storm last friday. We realized then that it will take more then just Mark and I to put it back up. It has been sitting on a trailer in front of our house since Monday. We called our new ward and asked for help. So Saturaday night the guys started to show up. We had 8 guys and one backhoe help out. It was so nice and it went up pretty fast. Well then most of the guys left and we said we could put the roof on ourselfs. The next thing we knew a whole new group of guys showed up to help with the roof and finish it up. We live in such a great ward up here. When we moved we asked for help and 1 guys showed up and he was new to the ward. I just can't believe how willing everyone is to help each other. I see it almost everyday up here. It as been such a stress knowing that this barn had to get up this week, because the trailer was due back. Now to see it up and all I did was supply the water was great. I feel like we are finally moved in.

Dallen's Award

 

I posted Corbin's award and now it is Dallens turn. Yesterday was Dallen's award ceremony and we knew he was getting an award. So I was there at 1:30 and the First awards given out was for kids who have not missed a day and have not been tardy. Dallens got this award with about 5 other kids in the school. So Corbin and I sat there and waited for more awards to be given out. About 45 min. later I told Corbin that must have been the award and we will leave. Just then they started to give out awards for School Scholar and Dallen's name was called. His award was for being a super speller. He has got 100% on all spelling test. Way to go Dallen. We are proud of Dallen and he works really hard to get 100 on all test. So now we were really ready to leave and then they start with the PRO (Positive Responible Operator) Bucks. These look like money and any one at the school hands can out. We now have been at the School for almost 2 hour. They then draw Dallen's name out of a box. He is given a Bag of Malt-O-Meal Cereal. So Dallen walk away with 3 awards. Way to end the school year. I love Dallen and he is a great kid.

Honesty

Dallen got some money from a yard sale we had over the weekend. On Monday after unloading the truck there was money on the bar and it was the same amount as Dallen had made. So I ask Dallen where his money was and if this was his. Dallen said the money was his and he took it. Well yesterday he finally unloaded his suitcase and found his money. Last night Dallen brought back up the other money and told us it was not his. He had found his money and this must be ours. I was so proud of the fact he did not keep the money. We did not know until he told us that he had even found his money. He as been wanting a new toy for along time now and with both piles of money he would have had enough to buy it. This is when being a mom pays off.

Grandpa's New Toy

 

For Memorial weekend we went down to Panguitch. Mark and I bought a barn for the horses in Cedar City. So in the wind we (plus my dad) took down a barn. We now have it home and need to put it up. Back to the toy, My mom bought this go-kart for my dad for his birthday. We took the boys around the track that my dad has made a couple of times and then Mark let Dallen drive. After that my dad let Dallen up and down the road and through some mud. Dallen loved every minute of it. He finally talk me into letting him drive me. It is so scary when you realized that your life is in the hands of a 8 year old. He drives it very well, so we let him take Corbin around the track. They had a blast. It is one fun toy.

Fun things to do!

 

We have had some fun exploring the new area. We have gone to the Golden Spike, ATK Rocket display and Wild life bird refuge. It is fun to see all the new place to play. We did all this in one day and it was to much, but all FREE! I love free things to do with the boys.
