ALRIGHT ALREADY

Good heavens I can't believe how popular I am. The 4 of you readers think that I need to update my blog every now and then. Alright, already! Here are a few happenings of our world the past week.
  • Carson makes the honor roll.
My little boys have been thriving since moving to Ashton. They smile more, laugh more, and are doing great in school. Carson recently made perfect attendance and the honor roll. I am so proud of my boys.

  • Kelton lost another tooth #8.



Kelton came home from school the other day and was eating a delicious apple. Out came the tooth. It wasn't even loose. Kelton is in training for some serious event this summer. He has packed his waterpack with rocks weighing about 50 pounds and heads off for a run. What a tough little dude!

  • Cooper learns to WALK - (video coming soon)
As many of you are aware Cooper has the most amazing scoot. We call it the "Coop Scoot". This is his own true style of what normal people call the crawl, but not Coop.....he wants to be different. Here is a good pic of him doing the "Coop Scoot" photo by Grandma Berta. Little buddy is taking his first steps. Right now I am treasuring every moment of it. I was thinking the other day how lucky I am to be able to see his first steps and hear his first words. There are so many women who CHOOSE to work, or HAVE to work in order to survive. I wouldn't miss this growing up stage for the world. I owe it all to my hard working husband. Thanks Bri.
  • Brian is making some sweet bikes - pics to com
Brian has so many orders for custom bikes. He is finishing a frame right now for a girl living in Utah. We will be taking a trip down to Utah next week to deliver he bike. It is SWEET!

  • Heather gains 9 pounds of MUSCLE......just call me "Hulk Heather"
At the beginning of March I brought our spin bikes from the shop up to Ashton. I have been teaching 4 spin classes a week. I enjoy meeting new people and getting paid to exercise. I have also been involved in the wellness program at Dr. Zollingers office. I have been eating good and exercising so I was excited to go in until I found the battery to the scale and weighed myself. Yup, I gained 4 pounds in 3 weeks. THIS SUCKS CRAP! I want to loose weight. Well, come to find out that I dropped my body fat 4% and gained a total of 9 pounds lean muscle. Alright, I will throw my scale battery out the window.

  • Last snowboard day of the season.

We were fortunate to head to the mountain at Targhee one last time. It was kind of a last minute decision, but well worth it. It was a beautiful day and the boys were so excited to take make their first full run from the tip top of the mountain. They kicked my trash. I was so impressed with thier snowboarding abilities that I almost started crying. Well, crying because my legs were screaming in pain while going down the cat track. We had a great day. Special thanks to Mom and Dad for meeting us and watching little Coop. We are so greatful!

  • Many walks
  • Smashing ping pong matches -

Griffin had a ping pong table at his work that he needed to find a place for so Brian and I were happy to get it off his hands. We have been having a few marital bouts due to the smashing matches that we have after dinner each night. It has been so much fun watching my husband torture himself over a game of ping pong. Each couple needs a ping pong table in their living room it is good marriage therapy.......until you smash each other's heads in with the paddle.

Berta said...

Great post! See, now that was painless - a little time consuming! Finally, you're seeing DIRT - that's encouraging! The boys are growing so much especially Carson! Love seeing the pics.

Craner Family said...

About fricken time!
Sheesh...Carson is a bit of a genius...HONOR ROLL!
Oh, I cant wait to see little Coops walk. His scoot was the most hilarious thing I have ever seen, hope you got that on film!
Your little dudes are growin' up so dang fast, I love to see pics.

I agree on the staying home thing. I cant ever in my wildest dreams imagine how hard it would be to leave little Bodi. These years are too dang short to be missing them, money is never as cool as watching your little guy grow before your eyes and do so many awesome things.

Tell Bri to get started on Schuys bike....PLEASE! oh...he is so bummed he wont build him a super sweet Kelson.

And Congrats!!! on the lean muscle, your so friggin tough, your gonna have no prob running that marathon in AUgust!
much luv, w

it would be so funny if Cortney and I had one...mostly because i have no athletic ability what so ever. I don't know if I have EVER scored a point in a ping pong game. SAD.
