NIGEL, Alive and Well

He's here and we're having fun> Nigel is five months old and very playful . He only wants to be in the way all the time. We're still working on the potty training, but he'll get it. He probably already weighs about 30 lbs.

Niagara Falls (the city, not the falls)

Well, it sure has been a long time since the last post. I've come across the whole country and seen a ton of cool things. Chicago, Niagara Falls, Palmyra, Boston, New York, and so on. I love it out here. It is the closest feeling to home of any summer area yet. Things are going really well. We were fifth in the company a couple of weeks ago, then we dropped down to tenth these last few weeks because of poor sales, but now we've switched areas and are cruising back to the top. Our guys are staying super busy and making good money, so hoo-rah! Things are going really well right now. I have some stresses, but that's life right? We are currently working in Springfield, MA about an hour and a half away, so we are staying in hotels for now. It kinda sucks, but it beats the three hour commute every day, although I am pretty sure I will be doing it anyway. The guys are all picking up on the job really well. Most of them are averaging under two hours per job and some are down to an hour and a half. I really don't have a ton of time now, but I wanted you all to have some photos.
Love you, buy.

Memorial Day Weekend

Gem had a lot of fun over the weekend with her grandma and grandpa. Tyler and I enjoyed it as well. We were able to go to the santa barbara zoo, and even visit the ocean for a little while. Gem was good all weekend (thank heavens), and made it through the experience with no major injuries. Anyways it was way fun to have you guys out to visit, we can't wait til we come out in July. Steve we hope everything is going well in Boston, and we love to hear from you even though you call at the weirdest times.
anyways we love you all

These are some good pictures we had done at the mall. Hope you like them.

Before Boston is a Big Birthday Baby Boy

I'm on my way! Only two days until I am on the road for an eternity driving across the country. You all know how it feels with trips to New York, Palmyra, or Buffalo. I just wanted to put up a couple of pictures of Colby's birthday bash. We had a lot of fun and we missed Tyler and Tara. As soon as I get to Boston I will purchase a new webcam so I can feel like I am part of this video family. (does anyone else feel like we are all putting big brother in our own homes?) Neither do I. Today I passed a studio on Harrison Blvd. called "Adult dance and fitness." Any guesses? I laughed my butt off, but I don't suggest that you all think about it too much.

Capital Improvements

We've been pretty busy with the house since we arrived. Here are some before and after pictures. First we have the kitchen. This is the room that has seen the most change. New tile, paint, cabinets, countertops, and a microwave.

A few more details of the kitchen... tile, big green wall.... the usual.

Next are the two bathrooms. Downstairs first and then the upstairs.

Life is good. We're enjoying it out here. We hope everyone comes to visit sometime. The post just below this one has some good pictures of Gem. Hope you like them.
