Mike finally did it!

After much thought and serious peer pressure, Mike finally took Kevin's beauty out for a ride!!!! Sorry boys, the answer is still no!

In other news.... we helped celebrate Bradens 5th birthday last night. The kids always have a blast getting together for a party! Lots of kids, lots of presents, lots of cake and lots of fun... Bellas got to stay for the weekend for another sleepover with her friend Jody... I mean Breanna. As we were saying goodbye to Bella last night I said "I'm gonna miss ya", to which she replied "I'll miss you too... but I'll call you tomorrow to see if you're ok." Then she proceeded to tell me "...you be good too." ...when will she ever grow up?

Check out Bella's weekend on Kevin & Jody's blog...

The roof is starting to get shingled this week, windows & doors coming next week, the porch is starting to get framed and the interior walls go up next week. It's moving right along... will we be in by Christmas??? :o
