Expensive decoration

We now have our most expensive decoration in our garage and backyard. But after tomorrow it will be an air conditioner. I am anxiously awaiting.... We had a good memorial day. Chad worked our tails off, which is a really good thing, I would hate to walk around with a tail. Embarrassing. We went to a friends for a hot dog roast. It was really windy and cold but fun anyway. Tuesday the A/C guys showed up at 8:45. I was shocked to see them then, they told me 9. Good thing I was dressed already. They made a dusty mess all over my house. I spent all that afternoon and evening dusting and vacuuming. It was a happy mess, though. I didn't mind cleaning up after them. They were here all day Wednesday and finished on Thursday. It looks really neat, but does nothing yet. Friday the electrician crew came and did their part. Dusty really didn't like them. I think if he could have broken his chain they would have been in trouble. Funny, he didn't mind the A/C guys nearly as much. Tomorrow they are supposed to be back to hook everything up. YEAH. Boy that will be nice, our 67 degree temps are really getting to me. haha Blake had an orthodontist appt this week. He's pretty excited, they told him it won't be too much longer with the braces. I told him that 2 years isn't too long in the eternal perspective. He's hoping for a couple months. Originally it was supposed to be 2 years, so I think he's got a little longer than he hopes. He looks so cute with them though. Rylee and I went on a picnic with some friends that moved to Declo. The clouds opened up and dumped on us. It was funny, we can pack up chairs and food really fast. So we had a picnic in my kitchen. Wednesday was Tanner's last day of school. He thinks it's pretty neat to get out before everyone else. Rylee thought it was great! She kept asking me all Thurs morning if she could wake him up yet. She was going to "get him" because the night before he said something about her being 3 years old. She didn't appreciate that. Thursday we had a pack meeting. It was weird, we only have one cub scout left. It will be weird not to have cub scouts anymore. I remember one time adding up how many years of pack mtgs we had. (8) Now we are down to 2.5. This was a fun one. We went down the canyon and the boys made sailboats out of styrofoam, sticks and leaves, then raced them in raingutters. Reid got 3rd place and Jacob got 1st. They let Jacob race even though he left last month. Friday was the last day of school for Blake, Jacob and Reid. They were pretty happy. I'm a bad mom, they came home, told me about their day then I went to bed. I was a tired mom. Tanner started his job this week. He is working for a dry cleaner. He seems to like it. I like that he has something to keep him a little busy. He has a great boss, he's our Stake Patriarch. Well, that's our week in a nutshell, a very long one, but... Have a great week everyone!

Sounds like you have had a lot of excitement this last week. What are you going to do now with all the kids home? Rylee will love having all those boys around to do what she wants, well maybe.
