Our Colorado Trip

Nick's Sister Marcie invited us to come and visit her in Evans Colorado, and have Nick build her a Bathroom in the basement. Craig came along to help out, and Abe and I went for the visit...this time we actually made it all the way to Colorado. Hurray! These are Pics of Abe and his Cousin Joel. Joel is Abes closest male cousin. Abe is 5 months here, and Joel is 15 months.

BATHROOM STUFF
Day One... you can see that there really wasn't anything there but a few pipes to start with.

Day Two... The walls are starting to take shape

Getting the Tub in

Day three...Mostly lighting, and the did start puting the insulation up.

Nick is admiring his work!

Day Four....The walls are up, and the toilet is plumbed...ready for the potty!



Tub and sink plumbed now too....

Day five....Tub is fully operational

And puting the floor down for the potty

Caught on the pot....LOL!!

Day six...Everything is done...Marcie is modeling the beautiful new sink!

Marcie and Jaris still need to do some finishing work, like mudding, and painting, but all of the plumbing and electrical were done! I was so proud of Nick, he sure is talented!

You be the judge.....

Our Florida Trip... (finally)

On April 12th, 2008, we went on a family vacation to Florida. We met my parents, along with my 3 younger brothers. We were there for a week at my parents time share, in New Symrna Beach, it's close to Daytona. We had a really good time!

On the Plane...Abe's first Flight! He did really well on the airplanes...we had alot of fun playing with all of the new people we met.

This was a snowy egret that landed on the balcony of our room...it was really beautiful...

Our First Florida Adventure...

Grandma, and Grandpa gave Abe some E-7, a supplement drink, and he broke out in an awesome rash all over his body....it was not a good time...he was fine, and didn't even cry once, but I had a hard time, and cried about it....

It didn't ruin our day though, we were off in a few hours ready to play!

Day one of the Kennedy Space Center

Disney World's Epcot Center

Dad in "Morocco", Mom and Abe in front of the Spaceship Earth, and our cool little dude, ready for anything!

We had so much fun at Disney! I always forget how much I love it! We only went one day, but I think someday I want to do all of the kingdoms, and not just epcot center.... I had a great "mom moment" while watching the fireworks show at the end of the night. Abraham was awake, because of the loud fireworks, so I was holding him and covering his ears. Nick came and put his arms around the two of us, and I began to cry. It was so wonderful to have my little family there watching the fireworks together, and I realized how blessed I am. It was awesome... It was everything I never knew I wanted.

Little Abe after a little bit O' sun.

Day two of the Kennedy Space Center!

There was so much fun stuff that we did that I didn't get on film. We spent two mornings thrift store shopping...one of our favorite past times, and two afternoons at the beach, playing in the waves. Little Abe didn't play in the water too much both times we went down, he fell asleep, and Granny took him back up to the room. It's one of those bonuses of traveling with Grandparents! It was a great trip! Thanks Granny and Grampa for inviting us along for there Spring Break!
