My little super star

I really wish that I had pictures of this! I was required to go to the Danson production at ISU for my Survey of Dance class and couldn't find a babysitter so my mom, me and Katreena all went together. Katreena was very good for the performance and only made a little noise throughout the whole thing I was in shock, but the best part was when it was time for intermission. She had been sitting so good for over an hour that I decided to let her down to play on the floor (which in this auditorium was the stage) and there was music playing and she got down and just started to dance. Not only that but she was actually trying to do what the dancers had done on the previous dance like scooting around on the floor. She did her happy feet dance and her bouncy dance it was freaking cute!! The people who stayed in the auditorium thought it was great, my dance teacher even came in to watch her and said that I have a future dancer on my hands which is what I have always wanted! Everyone laughed and applauded at her and of course she just sucked it all in! It was great I just wish that I had a movie of it all! Aren't kids cute!!??

Bleh

Well there is only two more weeks of school and I can't wait!!! My classes are way freakin hard! I feel really yucky and just want to sleep! Katreena is even more active every day but lucky me she will sleep for 3 hours in the afternoon so that I can sleep to. That is very nice. My house is a wreck but hey my yard is looking better! That is what this blog is meant to be about. We had our friend come over with his skidsteer and he leveled out and lowered it about a foot. Not only that but we cut down our two apple trees and will be cutting down the pear tree in the back. I am very excited for that! Kyle wants to cut the pear tree down just enough that we can put a picnic table on top of it. We also put in a fire pit that is big enough for all of our friends to get around and make s'mores. Behind the face in the other half of our yard we took down around 100 trees and also lowered and leveled it. Plus we put a HUGE mound in the middle of it so that we can plant grass on it and plant trees around the perimeter of it and have our own little private park area on top. It will be awesome I am excited! Everyone should stop by sometime and see it....oh and as for the playhouse...it is in the shop right now but hopefully in the next few days Kyle will be able to move it outside so that we can finish it for Katreena to play in. Well thats whats going on in our lives right now!!

Quick Trip to California

Well as many people know, we went to California this weekend. We drove on Friday, stayed Saturday and drove back on Sunday. It was alot of fun but I do wish that is was for a different reason and that we would have had enough time to do more things. We went because my Great-aunt Judy, who has been sick for quite a while, has taken a turn for the worse and we wanted to make sure that we got to see her. She was very excited to see us and we got to spend alot of time just visiting with her. I know everyone is wondering about Katreenas first easter and yes we did do stuff. The weirdest thing, when we got up on Easter morning there were these bright colored rocks all over the back yard and up the trail to my aunts house, and yes we had to investigate. Katreena went out there and picked every single one up, and a few boring rocks, and believe it or not there was candy in some of those eggs, she thought that was great. We forgot the easter basket at our house so we will give that to her tomorrow morning. Well here are some of the pictures from the trip. I wish we were still there it is way to cold here!!!
