Looooong...

Well, I've been a slacker. I'll start out with my 36 week picture. Yay.
I could write a whole post about how "comfortable" and "awesome" I feel, but I'll save that for some other day.

We're out at E-Dale this week visiting family and "helping" with all the preparation for Shavuot that is going on this weekend. Except that really we're more work than we are help.........

Aidan is having the time of his life though with so much dirt to play in.

Speaking of Shavuot, we're expecting around 200 people this weekend and there is still a lot of work that needs to be done and some work that won't be getting done. :)

Here is the potato cellar

John hauling some of the bigger logs away

and how it looked today

As I mentioned in a previous post, the center is getting a facelift. Here are Mike and Aaron working hard and doing an awesome job. Notice the dirt piles.....yesterday one of the main water pipes broke and ruined most of Gerry's hard work where he laid all that brick.

Now he's got to do it all over again...

Karma planting flowers

Field Trip

Cary wanted us to get out of the house this weekend so we made a trip up to see the "This is the place" monument. (Where Brigham Young decided that the Salt Lake Valley would be where the LDS would settle, etc....)
It was a really nice warm day.

Overlooking the Salt Lake Valley. (one view of it anyway)

The actual monument

On another note, I'm 35 weeks today. Woot woot. Had another appointment today and all is well. I'm borderline diabetic, but they aren't going to "diagnose" me unless it gets worse since I know how to eat as a diabetic, etc....

Park Date

My child turns into a zombie lately when Sesame Street or The Wiggles are on.

I know, I'm a horrible person for letting my kid watch TV.

We met up with some friends at the park this morning and it was unexpectedly cold. Poor Jaydon and Aidan were having a hard time keeping warm.

Thankfully, Heather called Dan and Melanie before they left their house and had them bring some sweaters and pants.

As usual, it's hard to get pictures of Ethan and Drew...they are pretty much all over the place

Heather and Jaydon

The boys were pretty fascinated by the construction (or destruction) taking place next to the park.

I don't know who the kid on the right is, but he and Aidan were best friends by the time we left. (Notice Aidan rockin' Ethan's sweatpants)

Yay for progress!

Sunday at EskDale was the day of many projects
First off there were lots of Israelites wandering around the desert

but today it was because they were picking up trash and cleaning up the area.

Aidan and I are useless but we did our best to distract the workers

Meanwhile in another part of town.......
the Hansen men were working on this parking lot
Nick running the loader

David was running the dumptruck, and here is getting some instructions from Dean

This is what those Hansen guys do in their spare time. Work. :)

Next time I go to EskDale that old potato cellar won't be there anymore.

Jesse and Nick were going crazy with the loaders, you'd think they know how to run those things

John was running this thing, I'm not sure what it's called.

Another area they had finished earlier

The brick work that Gerry did in front of the center

This building is getting a facelift and hopefully next time I see it, it will be unrecognizable. :)

The outside of my aunt Teresa's house finally got finished and I love the rock work, it really tied the two colors of stucco together.

Spring in EskDale

Everything is in bloom so I had to take some pictures.

I had to throw in a few of Aidan, of course.
