Life Lately

WOW! I have not posted a Life Lately in more than a month. That is because I have been sick with two different bugs. I first had Strep...which Michael brought home from work and lasted about a week. About a week after that (because my immune system was low), I got a bug that Jared brought home from work which lasted three weeks. I am still coughing from that one. It has not been fun.

Here is what has been happening around here lately:

...I took some photos in the garage

this was Michael's dad's shoe shine kit

the workbench is a mess

this was one piece Michael took that was his dad's



...Cam is decorating his room with Star Wars stuff



...he also cleaned out all of the LEGO's from under his bed so he could use this as storage



...Father's Day food


...the garage while Michael was doing all of the work on Jar's Jeep



...we had a very windy day with thunder (which is unusual for us)


...Father's Day food


...Jar cleaning his Jeep


...this is Zena's room


...with raised bowls now


...she literally lays on my feet


...finished Jeep


...new drink to try


...testing out the finished Jeep







...Cam's new shelves in his room



...Jar's first time driving to work since Michael finished the Jeep



...Cam's new tinted windows


...Oops (Jar's first mishap)


...Michael went to the junk yard and found a trunk and hood and one would never know that this mishap happened


...I made kabobs one night for dinner


...Mom's new place








...fun book from the Library


...too cute


...Mom's place starting to take shape



...Zena enjoying the bones from some ribs that I made



...Michael and I helping Mom set up her living room



...Jar and I drove past Mom's old place (things are changing)


...my flowers in the back yard are in full bloom


...Jar made himself a cauliflower crust pizza


...Mom's place is getting closer to being done









...organizing my pantry





...decided to organize the whole kitchen





...made this incredible dinner (arugula, ground beef, onions, and mushrooms, with sweet potato tots, and feta cheese)...it was incredible


...Mom's finished living room and bedroom




...our new outdoor patio chairs



...Michael and I went to Moxieberry for breakfast

Michael got a frittata 


...Michael started working on the water hose area out back


...he got distracted and decided to use his martial arts knowledge and chop wood







...he also worked on painting the outside lights


...here are the almost finished stepping stones by the water hose area


...one finished outside light




...Cam has been building all of his Star Wars LEGO's



Other happenings around here lately: (which really have not been much because we have all been sick)
  • We got Mom completely moved into her duplex





  • I missed church for four weeks due to being sick
  • The boys went shopping downtown (Mall, Book Bin, Art Supply Store, Target, other Mall)
Cam took a photo of these shorts...which I love

  • I did a lot of sitting around because I was so sick
  • Jar went hiking to Blue Pool with the youth group



  • I cut Jar's hair
  • Michael's car turned 260,000 miles
