My big brave husband

As many of you know Nate broke his leg a few weeks ago. He is doing very well. He went to see the doctor and he was surprised how well Nate was moving around. The Doctor said he could go back to work on Monday but his work does not have any thing for him to do, so he will be staying home for awhile. We wanted to say thank you to every one for being so great. All the phone calls and well wishes meant so much to us. We as very lucky to have such a great family and appreciate all the help in moving us in to our new place. Thanks to Cynthia we have pictures of Nate after he fell. Once we get more moved in I am going to put the x-rays on that blog too.

The Long Hard Trip

Sorry to every one about now keeping this up to date. I am going to try harder to update it. If I start to slip please bug me to get going. The really point to this post it to talk about Nate's first backpacking trip. We both went with my dad to Notch lake. Most people know my dad and me go ever year. This year was a lot of fun to have my two favorite guys. I must be really out of shape because I thought I was going to die on that hike. The really bad thing is the hike is mostly flat and is only 2.5 miles long. My dad kicked my but and how old is he. I think that is the worst part about it. Nate did awesome, he was in the lead most of the time. We had lots of fun and before the next trip I am going to go walking first. Sorry no photos but I forgot to bring the camera along.

Down to the South

I married a red neck.

One night Nate found this hair extension thing that I have. After him looking at it for awhile and not getting how to use it. So with this being said I put it in his hair and it blends in really well. I is almost his exact hair color. This made me laugh so I had to get the camera, I knew that every one would love to see these pictures.

Another Diaper Cake

By now I think everyone knows that I love making diaper cakes. Well this is the last one I made, it was for my boss. She was having a boy and her nursery theme was Noah's Ark. Also every one knows that I put off doing things until the last minute. I didn't have time to go find anything that was real Noah's Ark stuff so I went to a craft store and found these animals. I decided to put the stuff on the wires at 10:30 at night. So off went Nate and I to Smiths to find copper wire. I got it done in time and she loved it. It turned out a lot better then I thought. I really like it.

Green Thumb

We have tried our hand at growing tomatoes. Since we don't have a yard, we came up with this. We have two plants and a pot full of wild flower seeds. I am hoping that we don't kill them since I have never been able to keep plants alive. We have our fingers crossed that we will have fresh tomatoes and flowers.

Diaper Cake

I made a diaper cake for Cheryl as part of her gift from me. I was not sure if I could do it since I am not creative at all. I was able to do it and I thought it was cute. Nate helped me roll all the diapers and put them together which helped to have another set of hands. I had a lot of fun making it and putting it together. I put it all together in about three days but I could have done it much faster. I was at my dad's store so I didn't feel much like rushing.

Patio Furniture

Since most of you guys have not seen our apartment we a deck off our living room, so I wanted to get patio furniture for it. We looked all over the place to find some that we liked. We finally found some and we love to sit outside when it is not snowing. We had to put it together so that made for some fun since it did not come with any instructions. We had lot of fun putting it together.
