Bathroom Remodel

 So I didn't get pictures of the guest bath before the man started tearing things apart but this is somewhat at the beginning.

 After the bathtub had been turned to make the guest bath smaller, this will make the master bath larger when this is all said and done.

Before pictures of the master bath; it is very small the whole reason for the remodel is to make it possible to have a larger master bath. We hope it all turns out the way we want, its a process. Ren does a great job, what a blessing that he can do this.

UAR Board of Directors Meeting

 Caro Norton, UBBR President and Rebekka Bingham UBBR Association Executive

Here are the 3 of us, I serve as the President Elect for the UBBR 2012

We the Board Executives attended State Board of Directors Meeting on January 19th. I learned so much about our State's role in the national position for Realtors and about how well represented we are on the national level at Capitol Hill and in many other places. We have great people in our state and they taught me alot in that one day's worth of meetings. We then take the information back to our board. I really enjoy working with Caro and Rebekka along with the rest of the board members in the UBBR.

Overnite Parties

Grandma Liebhardt, Kaydence, Aurie and Kaylee

Yes they would like us to believe they were asleep 

Barbie was the favorite movie for the evening. 

And the next morning.

The Overnite Parties were held two weekends in a row in January. One weekend for the girls and one for the boys. For each party we got to go to McDonalds and eat. We visited Grandma Liebhardt at the Care Center. With the girls we watched Barbie movies but with the boys we played video games (Lego games). The next morning we had breakfast and then it was time to go home so Grandma and Grandpa could take a nap. Caleb and Tesher were a little too young but as soon as they are old enough they will be joining us and poor Lnadyn got sick and had to go home at 10:30 at night but we'll do it again. I also did not get pictures of the boy party because I very busy taking care of Landyn because he wasn't feeling well. Despite the sickness we all had a good time at both parties. The girls had no sickness. We will do this about every 3 months, except the next party will be in Dineyland since the whole family will be together, that will be a great party.

New Car

The new car showed up on Dec. 28th, however it wasn't ready to be taken until the 30th. I waited 3 months for it to get here. We took it to Grand Junction for its maiden voyage. It ran beautifully until we got home and then it blew a heater core and it also had a few problems with the sensors being covered over by the DVD wiring. These were fixed shortly and there have been no problems since, I really love it and feel safe in it. Ford did a good job.

Back in Time to Easter

Chef Ren

Charlie's Angels? or Harrison's Angels

It doesn't matter that it is cold, the snow is gone and we can play.

Food is the most important and when I say I'm hungry. I'm hungry.

Yeah warmth and no snow, we can ride the bikes.

Easter Dinner is always so good, that potatoe salad, BBQ chicken, all that first taste of summer/spring food.

Then there's the Easter Egg Hunt a tradition at Grandmas and Grandpas.

Of course we love any excuse to get together but Easter is our first outdoor time once the snow melts or it warms up a bit. The grandkids can't hardly contain themselves and bust through the doors to get outside to play.

Family is wonderful and we do love each other, holidays are great times to be with each other.

Back in Time to Teasher's Adoption

Rachael, Cole and Tesher with Judge McClellan

The Proud Mama and Papa

 The little family with Attorney Reynolds.

After Tesher already being a part of the family for 6 months he legally became ours in January with his adoption. It was a great morning. Judge McClellan said some very touching words similar to the fact that he usually doesn't have positive experiences, but this was a very rewarding experience for him to participate in. We are so blessed to have this little fellow in our family, he is so happy and such as joy. He is ours and we love him so much. Cole and Rachael have indeed taught our family many things and given us opportunities that we would not have had without their desire to have children and perserverance to have them come to their home. Heavenly Father has indeed blessed us greatly.

Back in Time to the Grand Canyon

So we really love to go for rides and one week after having cabin fever during the awful cold winter Ren said we are going to the Grand Canyon for our Anniversary. We left on a Wednesday and came back on Sunday. We visited the South Rim of the Grand Canyon, went through Monument Valley, Natural Bridges National Park, Arches National Park and Dead Horse Point State Park. There is so much to see in the great country we live in and so much right so close to where we live you really need to see these places. I also love rock formations and the way the land lays. I had never been to the Grand Canyon and it was breathtaking. We hiked alot even though it was March and still a bit cold it was warmer than Vernal. We had a wonderful time together for our Anniversary, me and my honey.
