April Showers have brought a lot this year!
The weather has been teasing us this month! I dont remember it taking this long to warm up in the spring! We get 4 or so days of nice warm weather then snow and rain for a few days! It's off again and on again! Crazy mother nature!
We've had Jennie with us this past month. I took her to the airport yesterday, I was sure sad to see her go! She's so kind and fun to be around! She's just like part of the family now! It was funny as we were at the airport. We were weighing her luggage cause we knew it was over the 50 pounds. So we put in on the scale and it said 50.09 so we asked a lady that was near by if that would be ok and she suggested taking it down to 49.00 lbs because sometimes they are sticklers. So she was talking to us and Jennie didnt understand what exactly she said cause she was talking so fast and a minuet later the lady came back to us and said "if she doesnt speak english or talk very well you can get a security pass and go to the gate with her". Jennie's face was PRICELESS! We both held back our laughter and I just replied "I'll go as far as I can with you" LOL. When she walked away Jennie kept saying "cant speak english, I come from England!!!" we both were laughing pretty good! It was fun to have her but I think she's pretty excited to head back home to her family!
Ty has started another semester! His LAST one till he gets his associates! Yay! One step closer!
He has been lucky and gotten 37 hr work weeks last week and this week. It's SO nice that they give him hrs finally after MONTHS of 15 hr work weeks or just over that! It's nice cause he works 6am till noon or so. So then he has the afternoon to do his school work. I still dont understand how someone can be so dedicated! I certainly wouldnt have the *umph* he does to get it all done! But its a good thing he is! It has gotten in a long way!
We both are still in primary... nothing too new there. We are planning some camping trips that we are looking forward to greatly! Swimming...working out outside! SPEAKING of exercise....... I havent been dedicated enough lately. Gotten too busy and been really tired! But I am getting better at atleast walking to something. But I really really really want to get in shape. I just wish I didnt have to work till 6pm 5 days a week cause it is hard to get everything I need to done and dinner cooked PLUS work out all before I run out of energy. But I am making it public that I will put more effort into it and get back in routine! :)
I will post some pictures in the next week of our latest adventures! :)

April Showers Bring May Flowers...??
I sure hope they will!! April has been crazy thus far! With snow on April 1st and more snow on its way, I am starting to thing maybe spring/summer got skipped this year???
This year is FLYING by! It's crazy its April already! So far its been an ok month. :)
I played a great trick on Ty for April Fools Day...
I really wanted to get him good. So I had Jessica take some pregnancy tests for me. They showed up pretty well!!! (She is a few months along!) So I waited till we were getting ready for bed that night. Our friend Jennie from England is staying with us, so she headed to bed and we were watching the news. I leaned to Ty and said "Honey I have been feeling kinda weird lately, and I am really nervous that I might be prego, so I stopped and bought a prego test" Ty just kinda looked at me... (We've ALL had a "scare" so he was thinking it would just be that) so I told him I was going to take one before bed. So I got up a min later and went into the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and all, while he thinks I am in there peeing on the stick! lol So I open the door, and called for him to come in. I had it sitting on the floor, and I was being real quiet.... Ty took a min to come. (I KNEW HE WAS CONTEMPLATING WHAT IFFFFF?????) So he comes in and smiles and me and says "Your pregnant" and just kinda laughed. I chuckled and said "well look, you tell me" he looked down and glanced up and looked back down. lol I was dying inside! The look on his face was pure fear. lol So he picked it up, to make sure it was suppose to be a "positive" lol. So he was really quiet and just brushed his teeth, took out his contact and went and climbed into bed. I finally asked him what he was thinking about, and he started. lol "Well I guess I need to quit school and work full time somewhere, we'll need to start saving every penny".... and so on. So we talked about it for a few min. Then I couldnt take it anymore! I snuggled up close to him and told him I had something to tell him, and just quietly said "April Fools" and he gasped! Saying "but it said positive" and barley got out the words "Jessica, Jess peed on it!!" haha it was PRICELESS! I was laughing so hard and he was frantic. He started feeling around for his phone, and finally found it. He didnt have his contacts in, so he had it really close to his face and I noticed through my laughter. I tried to stop him from calling but he insisted he called Jess to make sure that it was an April Fools Joke! lol AT 11:30PM!!! It was hilarious. I love Ty. We have a lot of fun!
Our Easter was good! We enjoyed the weekend. Ty had to work Saturday morning, so I ran errands and all. The truck was having some issues, so $500 later, our truck has breaks, a new belts AND an oil change! lol Gotta love those things! We decorated boiled eggs with my family.
We learned a cool science project as well as what NOT to do. I didn't know that you were suppose to only add 1 TLBS of vinegar for 1/2 cup of water.... well I added about 3/4 cup of vinegar and food coloring! So it was doing some interesting things to those eggs! They were sizzling in the vinegar! haha. we eventually got it situated and were able to dye eggs for real!
We Celebrated Mom's birthday Sunday too! She's getting younger every day! :)
We loved spending time with family! I have grown to appreciate my relationships with my siblings/mother/grandparents and extended family. Even those who I thought I would never have a "friendship" with, I have developed them! I love my family! One my side we have 13 nieces and nephews! It's a lot of fun, and I love being and Aunt! They all are so fun, each one has such a unique personality!
I hope you all had a great Eater Weekend! I am so greateful for the holiday to reflect on what Christ did for us! We were with Jill and Josh Sunday morning and they were teaching Isacc about Easter and the true meaning, so he kept saying "Jesus Lives" . I am so greateful for that!
