Finally approved!!

Well we got the great news that we got approved for all the modifications for Rick's truck and for his power assist wheels. YAY!!! Now we just have to wait for the bids then we get it done!!! Rick's been driving this van we borrowed from a couple here in Monroe and it is so fun to watch Rick drive. I can't wait to see him drive his truck!!

grass in our toes...

Well ever since we got sod in the front yard Rick has wanted to lay down on it so bad. So the other day I wheeled him over to the middle of the grass and dumped him on to it. It was so fun just to lay down on our grass and look at our beautiful house and just soak it all in. Then we literally got soaked cause the sprinklers came on. It was hilarious!! But we had tons of fun... man I love my husband!!

More yard work

Well we were inspired by the grass in the front yard so the next saturday we decided to attack the back yard. First I rode around on a four wheeler with a box spring behind it for about 2 hours to level it out. Then it was time to rake it out. Little did I know our back yard was like a gravel pit. So 6 hours later I was done raking. Longest 6 hours of my life!! Then I fertilized and seeded and raked a little and seeded again. Yep long long day. Well it's been like 9 days and yep still no grass. So we're still hoping but maybe we'll just have to try again in the spring. Anyone have good tips on making grass grow? We're keeping it wet all the time so I don't know. At least the weeds and rocks aren't growing back!!

I'm sorry

So I have been so bad at blogging and I apoligize. Our life has been crazy!! So we both started school in August and it has us running all the time. Rick is doing so good in school. He's got an A on all of his tests so far in drafting and math. He's getting so good at ACAD (drafting program) and it's way fun to watch and see all the things that he can make and draw on it. I am his note taker for all his classes so I get to see him do all this cool stuff. School is going okay for me too, but there's nothing really exciting to write about microbiology.

I'm still doing both my jobs, nothing to really report there. We've been doing tons of yard work lately. I'm happy to say we actually have grass!!! We layed sod in the front yard two weeks ago and it looks so good!!

It's amazing how much i love grass!!! It makes me so happy to look out and see green instead of dirt!! Thanks to all the people who helped! We know so many amazing people.
