Around

Giddy up, T with is box helmet and his horse!!!

Our monthly pizza and a movie night. This time Daddy made the forte!!

My wonderful boys!!

Yes, my son loves to vacuum!! The earmuffs are for added fun and of course protection!!
Well, life is going great here in the Lindstrom house! We've been having all sorts of fun out side and playing with friends.
Yesterday we had our first Memorial Day BBQ! It was awesome! I so can't wait to have MANY more. It was fun to get friends together, eat good food and let the kids have fun together. Us girls snuck down stair to play "just dance" and "Micheal Jackson" on the Wii! It was a lot of fun.
Our chickens are getting a lot bigger, I'll have to take a picture to show everyone.
A few weeks ago, the hubby and I had our 5th wedding anniversary. We didn't do much on the day, but we're going to have a fun weekend, coming up. My awesome sis-in-law is going to watch the boys for a day while we escape and have some fun together.
I marvel at how truly blessed I am with all the family and friends around me. So many people to laugh with and lean on. I am blessed.
Right now, we are preparing for another trip!! We're (my 2 boys and I) are going to Cali for a week. I wish it was longer, but this is all we could squeeze in! Thayden asks me everyday if we're going to go get the Spiderman fishing pole yet! Today he got is 2 backpacks full of toys(mostly blocks) and his hat and was waiting by the back door to go!!AHH!!! it was sooooooooooo cute! I told him we had to pack our clothes first and make some food for daddy before we could leave. Needles to say, he was still devastated.

Spring

So, the weather has been super crazy here. It was nice, then snowed, then cloudy, windy, more snow and then sun. I wish spring would just get here.
Our main computer had senior moment last week, so we are using my old one (from when I was 16!), so I don't have any pictures to show. Bummer. But I can tell a little of whats going on around here!
Our chicks are growing like weeds, I can't believe we've had them almost 2 weeks.
Blake is finally really getting to walking. He decided to take a break, and now he's back on walking again.
The garden area gets progressively better every moment I steal to get to it. Since the weather has been chilly, the boys don't last long outside.
Shane is still super intent on getting his motorcycle, so we are looking at them.
And I'm thinking about starting up baking classes. I've been loving baking bagels, bread, muffins and all sort of things. I really think I want to start offering classes!
Well that's all from here, can't wait for the warm weather this weekend! wahoo!!!

Another blog!

Hey everyone (especially moms'). I started another blog called "Moms' advice one to another" and I would love it if you would all pop over and join. Its at: mamawannaknow.blogspot.com
I'm going to be adding topics frequently. I really wanted a place where I can put all the knowledge I've gained from others and the 2 kids, and where you can help me and/or other moms too! No thought is too small, and I know everyone has some thought on these subjects, or just wants to know for the future.
Can't wait to see what you know!

Some new things of late...

Well, yesterday Blake decided he'd give walking a try! It was a little sudden and really fun to see his face. He's been walking on anything that will stand still, and some that doesn't, for a while now. Yesterday Daddy got home early and we all got to play together. Shane stood Blake up and he walked over to me!!! He will be 10 month next week, so its time, but he was just so at ease with it, it was funny!
We had a great visit from my in-laws last week, they helped us replace almost ALL the carpet in our house!!!!!!!!!! It looks soooo good now, and no more old basement smell.
One of the pictures is Blake trying to 'tuck' the carpet. He was watching everyone else do it and so he thought he should too!! That day was long, but so great to have so much family here to help.
The weather has been so sporadic, I just can't wait til I can start getting the garden area ready and start planting. I have so many plans for this summer!!
Its March, so I know there's not too much time until I can start sporting shorts again!!!!!!
Things are progressively getting better, and I'm hopeful for all the things to come!
