Re-assembling

I know how much you all love these pictures of our mess, but Josh has been really excited about his project... so I figure I should share.
Yesterday he, well, I put dropped the motor back onto the frame. (really he did. He was just trying to make me feel special)

He had hopes of getting it put back together by the 4th, but he keeps remembering all the little things he has decided to do, So we will see how soon it really gets back together.
Little by little though! He still seems to know what he is doing! Yay!

Random little girl

Saturday Bridget decided that she needed to buy Lucy's toy vaccum from her garage sale, and their neighbors tiger. She has also claimed my shoes as her own! When she is not wearing heals and I am, she walks on her toes as if she is. Total girl.

last night as I was cleaning up after cutting Josh's hair, Bridget was out on the porch with Josh yelling at me to come see the "waybow"! It was almost 9:00 and I didn't realize it was that light outside! Bridget loved running around in her rain boots and umbrella!

Memorial Day

Today we celebrated our lost loved ones. Of coarse this year was more emotional then those in the Past. We miss you Dad, Bob, and Poppie...

Grandma Smith

and Grandpa Lewis!

"God be with you till we meet again!"

He did it!

He got the bike out.

Living in Make Believe

I have a real princess living with me. Well, a princess who doesn't care if she's got dirt in her shoes, or under her fingernails, or who has bad hair days by choice almost every other day.

Last week as I was pulling weeds out in the yard, Bridget was helping me. When she decided that pulling weeds was boring, she started building castles with the rocks. After about 10 minutes or so of entertaining herself, she came up to me and told me that I needed to go talk to the Prince who was dancing on the water meter in the lawn for her. I asked her why she (the princess) didn't go talk to him and she told me that she needed me to cause she was too shy! I then proceeded to tell her that the Prince wasn't looking for the "queen", he was waiting for the Princess to come, and that she needed to go talk and dance with him. She looked over towards the water meter and immediately got an embarrassed look on her face. Then slowly moved over to "talk" to him.

Our bedtime stories, and songs have turned into Princess Fairy Tales by mom. "Mom, how 'bout 'nother one!" Or "How about Princess Boog-a-bear" (her)

Some days I wish I was little again and only have to worry about the "prince" wanting to talk to me, or have much less stressful things to have to worry over.

I love having a girl! What if this little babe coming IS a boy? What will I do???

Truck update

So I thought the Truck project was slowing down, but I guess that if it's sunny, Josh thinks there is nothing better to work on. Him and Tyrell finally got the bumper pulled off that was stuck on there. Josh referred to it as doing it the "red neck" way by pulling it with a chain and his other truck. Whatever it takes I guess.

He has started grinding down the frame so he can get it all cleaned up and coated with the POR15 also. He has got the bottom of his cab all coated now as well.

Yesterday he pulled his motor so that he can finish cleaning up the fame, clean up the motor again and paint it. He was excited for his motor stand that we just picked up from a guy on KSL. We are definitely going to be needing a storage unit just for the random tools he keeps adding to the garage! I'm never going to get to park in there!

Little things... Big progress!
