Bear Lake

We went with Trevor's family up to Bear Lake this weekend. It was a quick trip, just overnight, but we had so much fun! The boys had a great time riding four wheelers and got so dirty! The girls just got to relax and veg out - perfect! It was a great time and fun to be with everyone. Our girls get so much attention from all those uncles, they were in heaven! Thanks for a fun weekend, Thatchers!

Laney's Blessing

This little miss had her special blessing day yesterday!

It was such a beautiful day! Trevor did a great job blessing her and she was so calm just watching him the entire time. She has such a sweet and pleasant personality that we just love. She is a little beauty and we feel so lucky to have her in our family. She wore the same blessing dress that Molly and I both wore. It was a little harder to squeeze Laney into it but I managed to get all the buttons done up! She was so happy all day yesterday and just smiled at everyone! I think she knew that something special was happening! 

We feel grateful to have such supportive family and friends, thanks to everyone who came!

Front Yard

When we bought our house we knew that the yard was going to be a huge project for us. Because the house sat empty for so long the front yard was in terrible shape and the back was even worse! This weekend we took on the front yard and it makes a HUGE difference! 

It was a lot of work and we appreciate everyone who helped us out! We tilled and raked everything up, fixed sprinklers, laid sod, made the flowerbed bigger, added pavers, took out a dead tree, power washed the house, etc... We're so happy with how it looks now, we've had all our neighbors commenting on the difference and how glad they are that we moved in and are taking care of the house. We're no longer the annoying neighbors with the ugly yard!
