New House

So I know it's been like forever since I've posted anything, but we've been keeping pretty busy around here. As most of you all know, we've been building a new house! I'ts almost done, our move in date is June 5th so not long now. I've actually got off my dead but and put some pictures up for you all to check out the progress. We're all really excited to move in! We will try to have a house warming party this summer and you can all come see it and help us eat some bbq! Until then enjoy the pics! This is the empty lot, they just started framing out the foundation.

Hello dear friends,
Sorry I kinda fell off the face of the earth for a while there! I have been sooo busy with work (man it feels really really nice to say that word, work, ) I haven't even had time to do laundry or dishes for like two months, thank god Steve has been helping me out on that one! I have been working at Davita Dialysis for about 8 weeks now and I love it!!! I'm working 5am - 6pm so getting up at 4am and getting home around 6:30pm, it leaves little time for a social life! I'm starting to go thru withdrawls from not spending much time with my kids. They are growing so fast I can't believe my little girl is 8yrs old now and in the 3rd grade! My baby is 6 and 1/2 !
We are all doing awesome right now! We have been truly blessed this year. Me with my new job and the kids are doing great at school and making lots of new friends and Steve has just got a promotion at his job too. Steve is now an inspector for Douglas County Public Works Engineering Dept. and he is loving it. We will hopefully be starting construction on our new house in a couple weeks. We are living in the tiniest rental ever right now and it's getting tight. The kids are fighting every night cause they are sharing a room right now. They keep saying they can't wait to have their own rooms like in our old house, but they were always in each others rooms anyways so I think it will be the same at the new house. I'll just be happy to have a bathroom that I don't have to share with the kids cause they are slobs, but I'm a bigger slob and that many slobs in one bathroom is a disaster!
Well guys I'm not getting any work done around the house sitting here on the computer so I gotta get crackin. I have the busiest weekend ever. The kids are going to Washington with my parents so I've gotta wash and pack their clothes, Steve is having knee surgery tomorrow so I've gotta get his crutches and post op supplies ready, I'm having oral surgery on Saturday so I've gotta get laundry and dishes all done cause I'm not doin it doped up on pain pills :)

Well peeps I'll try to keep up on this blog a little better and give you an update on the crazy Williams !!!
