Twilight Disturbance

I don't know how many of you read the Twilight series, but I got on Stephenie Meyer's website last night out of the blue and this is what I found.

Needless to say I'm upset. I guess I'm a little more addicted than I would like to admit.

Bear Lake

So it has been a good long while since I last posted and it is so overwhelming to think of what I should start with.

We just got back from a trip to Bear Lake with Paul's Mom and her husband, Wayne, and Paul's siblings and their families. We are so thankful that Wayne and Annette would put the time and money into getting the family together. It was a really fun trip, even for me the non-boater of the group.

Cohen loved riding in the boat and spent most of his time in the driver seat with either Wayne or Annette. Annette bought a wetsuit for him to wear and he looked so dang cute in it, like a little batman!! He also loved playing in the sand with his cousins.

We were planning on coming home Sunday morning, but ended up leaving Saturday night. Cohen started feeling sick Tuesday night and Paul needed to get back to get ready for school and let's face it I went into melt down!

It ended up being a good thing we came home because Cohen's fever hit 102.7 so we took him to Kids Care Sunday and he has pneumonia, poor guy. He is already on the up and up with 2 doses of antibiotics in him so we are happy.

Here are a few pics from the trip.

House Guests

When we got home from St. George a few weeks ago I started doing laundry and my dryer just did not smell right. I thought that it might be because we hadn't used it for so long so I wiped it out, washed the lint collector, and cleaned out the pipe in the back. None of this did what I wanted it to do so I hoped that after several uses it would just go away.

So last Saturday we went outside to put together the toy that Annette had gotten Cohen for his birthday and noticed that one of the flaps on the outtake vent from our dryer was missing. When we looked inside we noticed the makings of a nest!!

Paul and I finally got to taking care of it yesterday night and it was more than we bargained for. It took about 20 feet of pole to drag all of it out of the pipe and a couple hours, it was awful. We ended up finding 5 little blue eggs and it made me really sad, but what do you do.

After cleaning it out we put a new vent on that has a net in it so even if one of the flaps comes off nothing can get in there.




What a fricking nightmare!!!
