Okay, so this has probably been one of the craziest weeks of my life. Let's start you out with a quick update. Last week I found out that we got the house we having been trying to buy. That was on Saturday the 29th of March. So I was waiting to hear for sure what was going to happen till I started to pack. That means I had done NOTHING done. Well I find out that we can move in to the house the following weekend the 5th of April, so like my crazy self I jumped all over that opportunity. Yeah I guess I didn't realize how much work I had cut out for myself, (and all my friends and family). So moving day came, without out getting a wink of sleep almost the whole week. I was still packing little things up when the gang got there at 10:00am. The move was the smoothest part of the whole ordeal. We had a ton of people show up (THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO WAS THERE)!!!!!!!!!!!! We couldn't have done it without all your help. So the move was over and by Monday I had our new house all put together with pictures on the walls and everything, (thanks Mom, and Josh and Marjie). Well all that was the easy part compared to what I had ahead of me!! Not joking!! I committed to our old Landlord that we would completely re-paint the house, not knowing once again what a huge project that would be. By the way off the subject but during all this craziness I had Nick build 3 bunk beds for me while he was just starting a new term at school. (THANKS BABE)!!! Back to the subject of painting, sorry my mind sometimes wonders :) So I asked Jake (Nick's best friend), if he would paint the house with a spray gun. He told me sure no problem I would just have to tape off the house for him. Well I thought sweet no problem that should only take a few hours and then I will be done. Well let’s just say I am not a good judge of timing when it comes to that kind of stuff. Three days latter and I am STILL not done. My kids have been left here and left there for three days now, yes I feel like an awful mother. But thanks to their Grandma Peggy and Kathy, Josh and Marjie, and Becki I am sure they have gotten plenty of love. Thank you guys SO MUCH I couldn't have done this without you guys. So tomorrow first thing we are painting the house and then it is done!! WOOOO HOOOO!!! So to everyone out there that helped so much, let’s throw a party!!! I'll let you know when. I'll provide the food you provide the fun!!!! Love you all so much couldn't have pulled this one off without you!!! PS I have not had any time to take pictures, but I promise I will have them on here by the weekend, check back!!! :)

Living and loving life with my four favorite BOYS!!
People we Love!
Nick and Kendra
What a busy life we have!!! Nick and I have been married for 6 years and loved every minute of it, (well maybe not every minute). We have 3 amazing boys that keep things very lively around our home. Nick is still in school full-time and going to work full-time. This fall he will be quitting his job and starting into the Respiratory Therapy Program. We are very excited, yet nervous at the same time, since he will be quitting his job and working only part-time. Because he will only be working part-time I have started up a Child Care business. It will be keeping me VERY busy, but I am excited. It is not something I plan on doing for the rest of my life, but for the time being it is something that will get us through Nick’s schooling. As for everything else that is in store for our future I am not sure, but I am excited!! We are very fortunate to be blessed with all the health and love that we have, and I Thank Heavenly Father everyday. I sure do think I am one lucky girl to have 4 boys that are so special in my life.
Kadyn
Kadyn is my first born and it definitely shows. He is 3 1/2, yet acts like he is 10. He adores his Dad and wants to be just like him. He is so full of energy and doesn't stop for anything, especially a nap. He has so much ambition I know one day he is going to do BIG things. He loves to draw, I'm sure he will one day follow in his Uncle Nate's footsteps and become an artist. He loves being an older brother and is such a big helper to mommy.
Austin
Austin is turning into his older brother, or should I say wants to be his older brother. It doesn’t matter how much trouble Kadyn is getting into, Austin has to be right there with him. He is 2 now and learning very quickly how to stick up for himself, (let’s just say Kadyn doesn’t always like Austin following his every move). He is getting used to having a little brother now and likes being an older brother, (just like Kadyn). He is so smart and will rule the world one day.
Colton
The world is a new and interesting place to our last addition to the family, 6 month old Colton. Everyday is a new day and there are new things to learn. He loves attention especially from his older brothers, they are always making him laugh. He just started to crawl and loves his new found freedom. I can tell he is just dying for the day he can run and play with his brothers. He is such a sweet little boy, he melts my heart everyday.

Your new place looks great. I drove by yesterday. Yeah we are neighbors, ok even closer now. We didn't know you were moving, or we would've come help. Sorry.
Maybe we will get to see your new place, we never got to see your old one. You guys move more than we do. Good luck with the babysitting thing, I couldn't do it, I would go crazy!! Hope to see you sometime soon.
