I Am Lame!

So, this summer has been quite busy. which is why I have been such a lame blogger! So I appologize and I am now going to update on the days of our lil lives... Firstly as many of you already know Jer had a pretty rough spring which brought him no work, 2 surgeries, 10 days of hospitalization, and and a very long recovery. He is finally now able to do some of the things he usually enjoys over the summer, like hiking, camping, and bicycling. Usually he is pretty sore and needs some ice or heat but we are very grateful to have him able to enjoy a bit of 'life' again.

Chili and Giuseppe flew to Denver to visit their mom a couple of times this summer and of course the had a blast and were spoiled to death! All of the boys have done a couple of wrestling camps to keep up their skills. Mason went to cub-scout camp in July, Giuseppe went to 11yr old Boy Scout camp with Jeremy. Chili and Giuseppe went to a Boy Scout gathering of 5000 scouts called WashJam which was pretty interesting for them..they got to have sacrament meeting in the woods and were able to hear a couple of awesome general authorities speak. It probably would've been more memorable for the boys however the speakers spoke for a total of 8 hours in one day!! yikes! I'm not quite sure who planned that... as a mother of any children can tell you nobody especially deacon age boys want to listen to anything for 8 hours let alone listen to church speakers... actually the boys said that it was long but they mostly enjoyed the experience.

Jeremy has done some work this summer but things are still pretty slow in the construction world. This has prompted us to look into other options. In January he took the tests and applied for several fire departments in the regions and a couple weeks ago he also tested for several police departments as well. He really wants to get hired on as a fireman but there are more positions in the police officer world so hopefully something will work out. We are pretty hopeful since he has already has a couple of interested departments.

We are moving soon... the house is great and we are pretty excited about it. Its a little weird though since there is a chance we will be moving much further if we get a job on the other side of the mountains but we're prepared for the possibility of more than one move this year.

Okay so I know that this is a lame post... I didn't even have pictures or anything!! I think I just wanted everyone to know that we've been busy and enjoying life!!
