Won't be much on the posting front till May 2nd!

Hey All! I won't be posting much till May 2nd more than likely! That is the last day of classes for the spring term! I register for my summer class....maybe classes this Thursday! Whoo!


Last week:



Monday we both worked late.


Tuesday: We both worked days, I had class that evening and then came home to eat some yummy steak with Christopher and watch NCIS and do homework when Chris went to bed.


Wednesday: I worked a 12 hour day because of a fundraiser and Chris just chilled at the house that evening.

Thursday: We both worked the days again. This is my normal day off, but with Danyell at work being on maternity leave the schedules got flipped and flopped a little bit.

Friday: Chris and I drove to Michigan City for his interview at Sullair. It sounds very promising.

Saturday: Dad came over and we spent all of the morning getting parts to fix the tractor to mow the lawn. While we waited on the fed-ex shipment that never arrived we ate breakfast at The Breakfast House, the boys agreed, "It's a grandpa Beirne place".


Today, Sunday: We went to church which ran over by more than hour because there was a guest speaker, it was an excellent word so no one minded staying over. We worked on our tans together, took a nap on the couch, worked on the flower beds a little and Chris had BoJack chasing him on the dirt bike. I think I'm going to get my essay written and do some other homework, while Chris.... does Chris stuff.


Not last week, but the week before Chris and I went shopping at Elder-Beerman and I bought these jeans for only $2.99 each. $6.34 all together. it was great.

Easter!

EASTER! We Had a Good One!

First Brent and Mom hang out on the couch
Then Brent and Amanda with her bunny ears share the couch!





Uncle Chris plays with Makenna in her little thing-a-ma-bob she gots there
And Uncle Chris just can't seem to stay away from the hand ducky puppet.

Ashley does her supermodel pose. Rachel spent the whole evening on her wheels upstairs.

Chris gets comfy on mom's couch!


We ended the night with a picture of us and my Grandma and Grandpa.

We had a really great Easter and got to spend it with a lot of the people we love. Some unfortuantly couldn't make it.

Thursday, April 4th 2007

This Thursday Chris had a second interview with Sullair. We just heard back from them this week (4-12-2007) and they want to talk to him for a third time for a technical interview at the end of the month.

I waited at the hotel room in Michigan City while he was in the interview. I was bored out of my mind watching tv, playing on the internet, doing crunches, writing poems...yeah all that his interview lasted from 8am until 12:15.

After we were finished with the interview in Michigan City we went to Fort Wayne to play with Austin at Chuck E Cheese's. You know me, I just can't get enough of that place- a sign that i really love my job. ;)

We had a blast running around playing games. The all-day favorite was Ninja Turtles! Austin would not let us stop playing! I think we put $10 worth of tokens in that thing- in fact I know we did combined. It was great though and Austin got the hang of it really quickly. He was totally kickin' butt.

Here are some pictures:











(Just let me say, there are ALOT more AWESOME PICTURES!)

We'll Miss You Harley!

Yesterday was a very sad and heartbreakinging day for the Davis family as Harley, Casi and Shane's dearly annoying but still much loved dog had to be laid to rest. :( It is just a horrible story of them coming home and letting him in the house to find him thinner than he was when they left the night before, getting sick all over the house and empty eyes starring back at them.

Harley was rushed to the animal hospital at 3am and unfortuantly had to be put to sleep because his sodium levels would not stop rising.

Rest in Peace Harley!
