So this last week has been crazy!!!!

So this last week has been crazy!!!!

Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday I had interviews with a call back for yesterday which I have another call back for Thursday so I hope all goes well tomorrow!

Thursday- So Wednesday night we got a call from a family friend that his company needed a place to dump dirt so that in the next few days he would be dumping the dirt. On Thursday morning Derek got a call from the Foreman and said he would be their that day to start dumping so I had to finish some prep work in the back yard to get ready for them to start dumping. and i also had some weeding to do so needles to say i worked in my yard for 7 hours and was paying for it the next day. I also got a nice surprise from about 20+ deer at the park and they are their almost every morning now!






Friday- I worked on my house and exercised enough for 2 days because had missed Thursday. Later that night i went to my friend Nichole's house and got to hang out with her and her son Dorn and watch the first part of My Sister's Keeper which got stalled because it was scratched so I ran to the movie store to get another copy and when I got back the DVD player ate the 2nd copy and I mean ate it would not play or give it back so we have plans to finish it tonight!

Saturday- Derek and I got up at 7:30 am to go to his aunts house to build her a shed so we started the morning off with a trip to the store to get our supplies and on our way home for some reason the tie downs did not work and we lost our load of lumber all over the road and a bunch of random guys stopped to help us load it back up. It was so nice to know that people still care and will stop and take time out of their day to help a stranger in a time of need.

Sunday we just spent the day at home and relaxed.





Monday Derek and his friend Patrick decided it would be fun to ride their dirt bike's on the dirt in the back yard and try and make a track . They both said that it was a lot harder to do then they tough and it was a lot of fun to watch them crash and stall.









We hope you have enjoyed the look into our life's for the last few days! I am sure with the summer just around the corner and the backyard to put in their is a lot more to come!

Whats been going on with the us.

So I think its time for an update on us. So we have been busy, busy, busy the last few months… we have been trying to get our back yard done but with me not working we are relying on free dirt, rock/ gravel and more dirt se almost have all the dirt we need thank you to our back neighbor who works for a home building company and had 4 lost worth of dirt they need to dump some where so now its looking like we are going to be able to raise up our lot to meet the others!!! It’s been fun watching the dump trucks come and go with all the dirt. The dogs bark all day long watching the trucks and then once they are gone ruby loves to go out and run through the dirt and get a dust cloud kicked up its so fun to watch her.

We have also made a trip to St. George a few weekends ago; it was good to get out of the cold hear in the valley. Derek was able to take off half of Thursday and all of Friday so we were able to have a long weekend full of work, dance and just relaxing.

Friday: so may parent are doing their back and found a rock quarry down by their house and you can pay $10 per ton and go and haul your own rock. So Friday we went and hauled rock all day and then had to go to my little sis solo dance comp.

Saturday: we again attended Kayla’s dace comp where her groups did really good she came away with second, second third and first on her 4 dances. Derek was able to take his dirt bike and go riding all day Saturday and needless to say he was a very happy camper to be able to get out on it for the first time science ever!

Sunday: we again went and hauled rock all day and came home with a few bumps, bruises and scrapes. Then it was time to leave.


We are so excited for the spring and summer to come so we can enjoy the out doors with friends, family and dogs!


Love always.
Derek and McKenzie
