Where has the time gone?

I love my princess sweatshirt!
celebrating birthday with Grandpa and ma Coe
Just because I'm cute!

Wow, it's been awhile since I've been able to blog - sorry! We've been sooo busy! I told you Jeremy and the kids had been digging out the crawl space under the front of the house (we have basement under the rest). I believe it was Monday night we all went down there with 6 buckets and formed a chain to get dirt from one side of the house to the hole on the other side for about 2 hours or more until we got it done! The hole on the side of the house is pretty full and ready for black dirt and landscaping, the crawl space is done except for plastic vapor. Jeremy finished replacing all the duct work and hooking everything up! Tuesday night, we tackled the red barn and cleaned and organized that, Wednesday night we did the garage. Last night we went grocery shopping and did banking not getting home til 8:00pm only to get ready for bed. I've been faithfully exercising on the Norditrak except for the nights we worked (MON,TUES). I was pretty sore from the dirt in the bucket thing, but that's a good thing, right?

Tonight, we came home from work and the kids got home from school. We have 2 extras for the night. Amber is going to be home late tonight for the weekend. Brooke and Curt are going to a youth conference in Sheridan, Michigan (Beth Haven) tomorrow and are playing a few volleyball and flag football games there as well and are really looking forward to that! The girls had practice after school today for a few hours. I tackled cleaning floors and getting laundry caught up so that I can enjoy the rest of my weekend! Last Saturday Jeremy and I wrestled the old couch up from downstairs for the living room. Now we have 2 couches up here and the basement looks a lot neater as well. I cleaned that up last week.

We only got to the barn one night this week and Gent accidentally stepped on my foot after spooking ever so slightly at Carly coming out of a stall next to him. But, thank goodness that didn't hurt too bad for too long!

I started a different job this week at work. I don't mind it, but I hear there's another job opening up down the line near my husband and it's even better, so I might put in for that one. Right now I am installing the left rear door latch/lock system. Before I was putting in the air bag sensor, the rear door handle base, pushing in some rosebuds and more rose buds and wiring in the trunk. Doesn't sound like much, but I only have 55 seconds to do each car as it passes (the line runs continuously unless there's a problem). I do that 425 times a day on a good running day.

Erin got to celebrate her birthday again with Grandma and pa Coe. Grandpa just got back from moose hunting in Newfoundland (if you look close, you'll see the antlers in the one picture). She just loves all of her gifts. I don't know what this weekend is going to bring, but I'm ready. We have to work next saturday so I'm really going to enjoy this one which is why I worked so hard at cleaning tonight! The kids all enjoyed riding the go kart tonight out back. I have to take the camera out and get some pictures of that one! But, here are a few new pictures for now!

Lyndsay has started standing up, then letting go of what whe was holding on to for balance! She just woke up and is cuddling, so I'll get the pics posting. Have a great weekend!
