Ups and Downs

When one thing goes wrong it always seems like EVERYTHING goes wrong. I don't want to complain because I am abundantly blessed. I am just going to list some of the things that have gone on as of late.

First off our water heater broke!!! On the day of Trecia's bridal shower I got in to a cold shower and the heater hasn't worked for more than a week. You get about a 2 minute shower before it turns to ice. I am so lucky my husband is handy because it will be eventually fixed, for 20 bucks instead of 300. But we are kinda leaning towards a new one...because we can only take one hot shower in an hour. With 4 people in the house that makes Sunday morning NO fun.

Kade has yet to find a steady job that he doesn't have to travel the states for. Thanks to all of you who have kept your eyes and ears open. He has applied for a bunch of jobs thanks to the help of friends and family. We will see what turns up.

Our van is on the fritz. We need a new battery for it. You have to charge it all night, or jump it to use it.

Brad and Nikki are talking about moving. It will be great for them, but I will loose my cheap babysitter. :( We will see what happens.

But lots of things are looking up too, not everything is negative. Kade scored a free car, that doesn't run. But if you know Kade he tinkers enough to get things fixed.

Trecia is going through the temple on Tuesday, and married Friday. I am so excited for her and Jake.

Kade put a couple shelves up in our laundry room/walk in closet. It is looking good. I am excited to have a huge closet to put all my cloths in.

Kade and I have been able to spend lots of time together. I love it. Drake loves it too.

We have a small source of income thanks to my job. Even if it isn't a glamorous job, it is money.

Plus our family has a big secret that I am so excited to share. But I have to wait a little longer to spill.
