So Cody has been working ALOT lately and we never see him but he is dieting and working out when he can and has lost a ton of weight! I'm so proud of him. When he's home we work out together and it's a lot of fun to motivate each other.
I have been painting the house whenever I have some spare time. It has been very theraputic for me! I also have been pulling weeds in our garden (they never end) and I can do it for hours at a time. I have learned quite a few skills since we moved here since Cody has been gone so much. Here is what I can do- 1) Mow the lawn 2)Use a weed eater (even though mine started to smoke- it wasn't my fault) 3)Plant and maintain a garden 3)Kill bugs all by myself (with bug spray and the boys do love to help) and suck them up with the dustbuster 4)Paint a house 5)Sew 6) Bake bread (thanks to my mom getting me a bread machine) 7) Go grocery shopping with two toddlers without Cody 8) Scrapbook 9) Make a 72 hour kit and start food storage 10) Suck transmission fluid out of the car (Cody didn't even know where the fluid is but I did and I didn't need to check the manual) 11) Start a blog - my very dear and awesome friend MyKelle helped me sooooooooo much- thank you girl!

Anyways here are some pics of the garden, it has grown a lot since the pics were taken but it has only been a couple of days. We have corn, squash, zucchini, pumpkin, I think cucumber, and cilantro!
