Just another day and Mother's Day

Well I'm kind of bouncing all over, realized I never put up Easter but decided to do Mother's Day and other random day to day pictures up for now.....so here you go!

Video!

We are LONG overdue for a video. I forget we don't see people as often even though we've been living out here for 2 and 1/2 years....the kids are doing so many things and we often take video but I totally forget to put it up on here. So here is some fun stuff. Gretta hula hooping, Maggie learned to ride her pedal bike and Torsten is all over the place walking, running, climbing, etc!

I will try to do this more often, especially with how far behind I am with pictures this fits the bill quickly and I can stay far behind....I mean pretend I'm catching up. :)

Here and there and everywhere

Ok, hard drive hiccup is sort of solved, got a new one (I use an external drive for all my pictures) and trying to get stuff transferred and figured out in my photo software. I have Easter pictures somewhere, but for now you get a bunch of randomness! 

More house updates! Here's the house when we first bought it....

We had painted some window trim and the front door a while back and here we started painting the garage trim and front columns.

And finally we painted the garage doors and took out the window design things on the garage windows.

Stay tuned.....we're working on a big yard project!! Hopefully will be completed sometime this summer. So far we've taken out most of our deck in the back with plans for some more grass and a cement patio for a more user friendly backyard. It was all different levels, different decks and some asphalt back there before. Also going to get those crop circles gone from the front soon too! Yippee!

Moving on to the cute stuff....

Grandma Peggy was here and we took a trip up to Mendocino and the Redwoods.

Torsten could have done this all. day. long.

Have a great Tuesday!!
