Some updates
Well All sorry it has been awhile since we posted. Just a bit going on, lets see where to begin......
Krista's softball season is soon to be in full swing with her first game on April 29th, double header in anchorage, I got elected as President of the Softball teams booster club, I know right! They have no idea what they have done giving me that much power lol!
We bought a camper cheap and started fixing it up, only to discover dry-rote. So a trip to the camper doctor and some lightening of the wallet later the camper is fixed. We bought a 1988 coachman and started remodeling the inside, we figured hey even with a remodel it is WAY cheaper than buying a brand new one. It is looking pretty snazzy in there now and we have a fabulous Harley Davidson theme going on, on the inside. It was this god awful burgundy and cream color lets just say totally 1988! But now it looks fabulous of course! You can see the pictures on this site of what we did. We still have some more work to do with the counter tops, stove and bathroom, but it is getting there. The only draw back really to the camper is it is 11 feet long so had to sell the truck and get a dually. I know life is rough. We are taking the camper out for a short jont this weekend to see how it does. Then we are going from Krista's game on the 29th up to Alyeska camping and to do the last vintage snow machine race of the season up there. Wish us luck lol!

Lets see what else.....
Ashley announced she was getting married in september 2011, then thank goodness thought twice and her and the fiance are waiting until next July 2012 to get married. She met him on the plane down to basic training. Lets just say he is a nice kid, but a bit of a momma's boy and let's just say momma is a "bit" controlling. Kinda like hitler with a bible, if you get my drift. The woman is not very christian if you ask me, for all that she protests she is one. Ashley got engaged in February, I know quick right?? That is what Dave and I thought also, but hey who are we to judge, we did things a bit quickly also. All we can hope is that it lasts and that they are both happy.
Dave and I well we are just watching the world go by in a rush and thinking hmmmm we are getting older and not getting any younger, so we decided that we are going to have a second child hood. Sooooo we got his nova fixed, no more dent, got it painted, and are going to start working on the inside next.

We also are going to hopefully landscape the back yard and maybe buy a Harley. I am really hoping for the Harley lol. But we had to promise that neither one of us would ride it with out the other. Hmmmm not sure how well either of us are going to do on that promise lol. But guess we have to get one first lol.
Other than that just work and play and enjoying life!!! Well better run! Love and Miss you all!!
