Me again

Hello!

It is me again. I thought I would share some more of what is happening here. Things are still going well. On Tuesday night we had Nate & Heidi over. Our plan was to go water skiing for about an hour and then have dinner. Oh, and have Nate help Ben move our washer, dryer and fridge into our rental and move the other ones out. It is so nice to have my things. Anyway, back to my story. So, we took the boat out to a lake that is about 10 minutes from our house. We got there and got the boat in the water and wouldn't you know it, it started to rain. Yeah, so Nate, Jake and I were in the boat in the water & rain. Needless to say we took the boat back out of the water and went home. No one was able to ski. But before we took the boat out we had the privilege of having a duck follow us for a while. It was funny, we would speed up and so would the duck. Then we would stop and the duck would come up real close to the boat. Nate was taking care of the commentary, which of course, made it even more funny. We ended with a nice night at our house. It is so nice having them close. Dalin is doing great and is such a joy to be around. I have included a picture of the sun set that night. It was so beautiful.

Okay, so today I had a bright idea to go for a bike ride with Jake to Safeway. So, we took off at about noon. The ride there was mostly up hill. Mind you anywhere you go here is not flat, it is all up & down hill. Well, as we are riding I am realizing that it is a bit further than I have actually thought. It was about 3 miles one way. We had a good time though. On the way back we got rained on. I don't mean a light sprinkle. It was pouring. I was laughing so much. We saw some lighting and heard some thunder. It was great. Jacob & I really enjoyed ourselves. He told me that we need to make this a weekly thing. I think that is so great. I love being able to do these things, building to a place that I can stay home and have time to do things with my kids & my husband.

Still missing everyone!
