And I can't forget my dad. He rocks too!

Last week we were having some electrical problems. We ended up having to change out the breaker box. (many thanks for that too!) In the process we had to cut down lots of limbs. We have huge trees in our backyard and the limbs were seriously interfering with the power lines. Anyways - my dad went and cut all the limbs out. I couldn't even help with my lame leg (this was the day after the cortisone shot when I thought I was going to die). So he did it all by himself. Nice, huh?

Where have you been?!?!

I know, I know.  I am just out of it lately!  Or rather - IT'S BEEN WARM OUTSIDE!  I am loving being outside and cleaning!  I am so excited for spring.  This is the time of year that I find motivation!  I just want to get everything clean and organized - including my body!  I love this time of year!  
Dustyn received a small cash award for his Teacher of the Year Award.  Guess what my wonderful husband did with it?

For him . . . 
And for me . . . I am so excited! We are ready to get in shape and lose a few unwanted pounds. This is something that we can do together that we enjoy! (And most importantly - doesn't involve my FEET! Blah.)  This will for sure be part of our exercise plan.  We went for a ride last night.  It was so nice and fun!  And a serious workout!  (It's uphill to my parents house!  LOL)  I am so excited!  

We also got all the limbs picked up in our yard.  It was a task.  There are a TON of trees in our yard that LOVE losing limbs when the wind blows.  We filled our city trash can and had to go buy another 45 gal can and filled it.  And I am talking STUFFED!  Dustyn got in them and jumped up and down to smash it in and fit more!  And there are plenty left over.  I am excited for the next wind storm!

Dustyn also took down the Christmas lights!  YAY!  We usually get them down the first week in January, but it has been a busy year so far and too stinkin' cold!  

So that is a basic update.  It's been busy, but a great month so far.  :)
