a lot has happened


Brooke & Amron had their Baby Easter, April 12th.. He was 20" long and weight 8 lbs 1 oz. He is very cute and we adore him. He is in Thatcher now with his parents, and so it may be awhile before we get to see him again. It's hard having your kids out of town and not getting to see your grandkids very often. Hopefully they will be back in this valley soon and we will be able to see Graham....oh yea, his name is Benjamin Graham Harper, and they are calling him Graham. I know why didn't they just name him Graham Benjamin....who knows?
Bren Hansen got home from his mission and spoke on Easter, we missed it...we were in the hospital waiting for our little guy to be born :)
We have been busy getting things done around here, there isn't much work..I have tons of paperwork in the office to do, but there isn't much construction going on. Lyle is focusing on getting the projects done that are started. Of course he will need to find a few odd jobs to tide us over. I believe this will be the hardest financial year of our married lives and maybe our lives. We just will remain positive and hang in there....
I have discovered I really dislike my office job. I don't know what I would rather be doing but I really hate being in that windowless room all by myself all day. So I am very good at ignoring the things I should be doing.....
I also have discovered I really don't have the exciting life of my sister, she is more of a go getter. She doesn't let life pass her bye...she gets involved...I admire that about her.
I also have decided that one of things I want to do before I die, is participate in an improv experiment film. I love watching them and would love to be a part of one...they are awesome and I love the reactions from those people who happen to be there...great stuff :)
I will be adding other things I would love to do before I die....when you get as old as me you just start thinking about things.....:) (like Jolene and her how many steps have you taken)...only different :) just keep smiling :) :) :)
