Well, I drove all the way to Wyoming yesterday to retrieve Deric from Trek. I took River and she slept the whole way there because it was nap time. (only takes 2 hours--YAY!) Anyway, so, I dressed up in some semi-pioneer garb and we stayed the day taping a few things and eating some decent food. While we were there it hailed and rained a little. Kinda funny...and River got passed around like some prize (being the only little kid up there). She was sooo spoiled, she ate caramel popcorn and drank pink lemonade for dinner. :-P Oh well, it was nice to go experience it for a while since I am going to be editing it for the next two months. The due date for the project is end of August. So, yah...
My house is a wreck.
I went yard saling this morning a little and got a large crock pot for fifty cents. :-) Um, other than that a few kids' things and a picture frame to paint. I just need to actually paint all the frames and get this project done of hanging pictures in my living room. I guess I am kinda waiting for when we get the new furniature set in August for our Anniversary.
Well, ta ta for now!

Trekkin'
Well, we are going to go up to the Trek to see Deric today. Last night his tent flooded and most of his clothes got wet. He says it is raining today, and that he might just come home if it gets any worse. Good thing he has a cot that kept him off the ground. I'm excited to go see him, but a two hour drive is kinda long....oh well, I suppose I will do it.
Yesterday was a wash, I lazed around doing nothing all day. I did weed 1/8 of the garden...those tiny little weeds popping up are hard to reach with my belly in the way. :-/
.........................Well, the day got changed around since I started writing this. We aren't going up, I am having a mental breakdown instead and confining myself to the house. I can't be a stay at home mom if my husband isn't at least here in the evenings to talk to and give me some kind of getaway. How pathetic am I..........

It's a HOT one!
Today is going to be one of those sweltering kinds of days...bleh...I don't know why everyone has been complaining about the rain so much. It really has kept it cool and kept things green! I prefer it that way...of course, I am also hugely pregnant and having a hard time breathing in the hot weather. Oh well, Summer was bound to happen at some point...at least I only have about 5 weeks to deal with it. :-)
Finished our last visit for visiting teaching. I have been really frustrated with my "companion". She seems to forget about it half the time, so this time around she was at one out of three appointments. Oh well, it's easier for me to talk without her around, sometimes she is kinda spacey and turns around what I am trying to say into something totally unrelated. But, she does mean well. I won't be able to go in August probably, so it will all even out I am sure.
I'm not sure what to do today. I might get out the sprinkler sit n' spin (that I got at a yard sale for $2!) for River to go play in. I was thinking I might try to tackle the downstairs a bit more...we will see. I have a few little sewing projects I have to finish too...Well, more later.

The loves of my life. :-) April '09
Welcome to my blog everyone! I am just playing around with it since I just made it today...so, this is the only way I know how to get pictures on here so far. So, I figured I would put up one or two. I will do more when the hubby returns and shows me where he put them all... :-)
Alllll Alooooooooone!
Well, this morning we sent Deric off to go on Trek to film it (at 6:00am!). I got up and made breakfast for him and then we woke River up for him to say goodbye. He is doing well so far...
We tried to go strawberry picking at Deric's Aunt's house (they have an overabundance and have canned all the jam they want already) but their berries haven't produced a whole batch since their recent picking. So, we have laid claim to the next round in about 2 weeks. I will freeze some (I froze one bag today) and can jam...mmm!
We found out that Mark (father-in-law) has the Swine Flu...and we were all just over there for Father's Day on Sunday. We were in the basement and Deric's Grandma's really, but Joan insisted on taking River up to say hi. I told her not to let him touch her though. So, I think we are safe...it isn't an airborne thing. But, that means that Grandma can't babysit River on Saturday while I go yardsaling in the morning. Oh well, I suppose I may just attempt to take River...we will see.
We went and played with the neighbor kids a bit and I am having my neighbor and her two young girls over for dinner...lasagna. We decided that since our husbands are on Trek we would do a potluck for dinner tonight. So, she is bringing fruit and veggies, and I am providing lasagna. I'm hoping it won't be a problem with allergies...(her 5 year old is lactose intolerant).
Later....It went pretty well, we just had her daughter eat some leftover stirfry. Good food, good company. We played a little in the backyard, but we are all kinda tired from the long day, so they headed home. I feel like we did some fun stuff today. :-)
