Gardeners' Market!

I realize that I never post anything on here anymore...sorry. I was never a good journal writer either, maybe out of laziness...I don't know. Anywho, I'm sure a lot has happened since I last posted, and I'll probably leave a lot of details out because, frankly, I have a terrible memory. Most of my time these days has gone to chasing a little guy around the house, diffusing tantrums, and making hair accessories to sell at the Cache Valley Gardeners' Market. That actually starts this Saturday and I'm really excited. We still need to get a table and a shading device for our booth and I'm trying to think of cute displaying ideas for the hairbands and clips. After I get going a little more with the market I will finish my chalkboard menu boards so I can sell those as well.
Matt is doing really well these days. He can be a handful sometimes, but for the most part he is a very loving, cuddly, chatterbox and we love it! He got all four of his 1 year molars recently and his k9s are starting to cut through, so yeah for us... He is really a happy kid but when he gets his teeth it's like a Jekyll and Hyde transformation; one minute he is a sweet little boy full of love and the next he's hitting and biting and screaming, and throwing...Ugh, I'm getting frustrated just writing about it.
Some of Matt's favorite activities include: running around the house with a spatula, running into walls with a kitchen towel over his head (he thinks that one is hilarious), throwing two racquetballs at the same time in the kitchen, pretending to stir with the bucket opener and a bowl, playing peekaboo has surprisingly not gotten old yet, caged lion ( I put a basket over me and Matt pokes me through the cage while I growl), and many more silly games. We have a lot of fun here.
Nate has finals this week, he just finished one today and has two more this week. He has done really well in school this semester and I'm so proud of him. I know how much hard work he has put into this semester with school and work full time and trying to spend time with Matt and me. He is definitely looking forward to the summer, he needs a break! In July we are going to take a family vacation with mama Margie and papa Lloyd to Nauvoo Illinois which we've been planning for a year and we're so excited to go! I am doing full time school this summer during May and Junemester so I will also be needing a break.
Well, I hope everyone is satisfied with this blog post, I hope it gave insight into our lives since we live far away from everyone. Enjoy your week folks and maybe in a couple months I'll update this blog again.
