Shads new Bike.....






Well the white knight Harley.....got a face lift and now is the the Dark night black Harley......all chromed out....Shad's DREAM bike has finally arrived....I am so excited for him and he gets to share it with this little cutie in the photos! They have a blast together on the moto....For Shad's birthday we decided to paint his bike like he has been wanting to since he got it...and boy does it look different! Life is great for us...busy busy busy as usual...I am waiting to hear back if I got accepted into grad school this fall, I am sure I will find out this month sometime...and in general just working chipping away at getting in a great financial place so that when we decide on baby number 3, its not stressful and I don't have to work....work has been great! I am really LOVING my job, I miss the babies when I am gone...however I do like working....I like doing something I enjoy during the week and then playing with my boys all weekend! Life is great and as usual we are so blessed. Dem has come to live with us for awhile before she leaves to Hawaii, and it has been great having her here, I had a huge blowup the other day when I got out of the field, and both Shad and Dem were like WHOA! And.....it was nice to be able to weather that with people I care about....I feel like I am doing a lot right now and I know I feel blessed, and....doing all I am doing can be overwhelming at times...one day I would like to slow down a little....one thing that Shad and I are so excited about is that we are both going to Peru now...in July! So I moved the date in May by myself to one in July so we both can go! And the babies will hang out with Grandma K and Grandpa Pool! It will be so much fun to go with him, I have started to donate plasma so that I can pay for my trip that way! Its not that bad...after having babies, IV's and Epidurals....it actually is pretty easy! That way we can focus all of our other money on saving, and getting out of debt, which is our main plan! The babies are growing so fast....next week is Taren's 1st birthday is next week! he is so big, trying to talk, almost walking....his personality is totally coming out and he has the cutest growl laugh! Taegyn is a blast to be around as well! He talks so much, when he goes to time out he asks for hugs and kisses, when he goes to bed he asks for hugs and kisses, and all the time he says I love you too mommy, he is saying things I have no idea where he learned them, he is growing up so fast! He can get out of his crib now and get back in, but he will stay in until I get him and then show me he can get out! They are the joy of our lives! Life is great! more later...
Ps - the other 2 pics are of me in the field, the one with all the smoke and my hand up is me blowing flames on a bow drill set, its called busting, I did it under 2 min and won the competition that week in the field, so much fun, and the other is just hanging in the field.....

I loved the pics on facebook too. I can not believe how fast the boys are growing! And I also can not believe how busy you and Shad are. You have SO MUCH going on! I hope that everything continues to go well and I think it would be AWESOME if you got accepted to the U. YOU COULD MOVE UP HERE!!!! I think I might even make up a song about how excited I would be:
(set to the tune of the spongebobsquarepants theme song)
You live in the desert with cactus and palm trees
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
You live far away from your families
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
If hangin out with Adam and Lynsie is something you wish
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
Then pack up your bags and give Yucca a goodbye kiss!
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE
MOVE HERE MOVE HERE!!!!
