Spring is here!!

Wow! I love warm weather! Today was so nice out! I just got back from a walk with Ty, Gavin, and Daisy. :) No wind, and warm. It doesn't get any better.
Speaking of spring. Daisy is in heat. yay!...not. ha it's going to be a pain to keep all the neighborhood dogs away from her. There are about 3 males that are frequent visitors to our house, so it should be interesting.
We went out to Grandma Torrie's house today to see it as hers for the last time. That was fun, brought back a lot of memories. It'll be weird not ever going there again.
On the way home, Bri and I stopped at Litchfield's to see my horses. Wrangler is looking good! He should be ready to come home in a couple weeks. Yay!! I'm so excited. I've been waiting so long to ride him. The other horses were out in the field so i didn't get to see him, so I'll have to go out there again another time. I'm going to sell my yearling, and then all that money will go to pay for wrangler's training. Anyways that's my rambling for the day. I don't have any pictures uploaded so i'll post some later.

random...

I finally got to sleep again last night! It was so nice. 8 hours! Two nights Gavin was up for hours, it was brutal. I probably shouldn't complain, but he's always slept good so when he doesn't it just about puts me over the edge. He had a little bit of a cold and just would not sleep. So both nights i was up for like 5 hours or more just holding him. :P anyways i'm done venting and he's all better.
Moving on, the last few days Ty and I have been doing lots of planning thd figuring out how we can get our year supply and 72 hour kit. We talked about it quite a bit before but we decided we have to just do it. So we went on the LDS website and used the little calculator to figure how many pounds of what we would need and what they suggested. CRAZY! We would need 748 pounds of grain alone. I have no idea where we are going to store it. Were just going to get some of everything for now and store it...somewhere. Ty gets paid monday so we're going to do a costco run and get a few things. We started our first aid supplies and matches and random things that we could get at Walmart. I think it's fun actually, ha i might be weird but it feels good to be prepared. I was reading on the LDS website,as i said before, and it said that we've been told by the prophets for the last 60 years to have a year supply! That's a long time and you think about it and i know a lot of people that don't have enough groceries to make it for a week.
Me included right now. Well maybe more than a week if we had power. We have a whole dear in our freezer and ty stalked up on sardines and oysters. Sick. Anyways that's besides the point and i'm just rambling.
Next topic ha Gayle got a walker that a couple she knows got across the border without being caught. So i'm excited about that, it might help his bald spot ha. No i'm kidding he really likes it so far. :)
Last night he slept 1 to 9 and then went back to sleep in our bed til 12:45

Spring Break

Wednesday was Ty's last day of work! I'm so excited! It's going to be nice having him around all the time.

Headed to Lethbridge.
Ty plays basketball Monday and Thursday in a mens league in Lethbridge. So that's usually our Costco trip and other Lethbridge errands. This time we went with his parents and ate at Moxie's for lunch.

Gavin and I both have colds so the last couple days haven't been that fun. I think he's starting to feel better today because i got him to laugh and 'talk' to us. So cute!

New House

Saturday was the big move. We had tons of help, thanks to our family and friends. I had to go into Taber just as we got started to sign for a storage unit (we have to much stuff for this tiny house) and when i got back the house was just about empty. It was awesome! After we got everything in the house and the kitchen unpacked, we ordered pizza and called it a day.
Here's Gavin hanging out in the new house!
