Weekly 10!!

1) Trent got his elk head back and it is a huge beast. Trent is trying to convince me to put it in the house, but it would overpower our little home and I reminded him that when we got married I said none in the house. sorry! So, into the man cave garage it will go.....with Pride!
2) Got to go on a fun date with. Trent's brother Ty & his wife Annie, & his sister Taryn and her boyfriend Shane. We just drove to Mesquite & ate at Los Lupas, plus went and grabbed Trent & Ty's Elk heads.
3) Went with my Mom to an awesome yard sale. This place buys items up for auction and resells them. The guy sold me a baby cradle over 100 years old, and knows I do photography. So he bought a 100 year old wooden highchair with me in mind. My mom went on Friday & told me about it. So, on Sat. I had to go see it. Which was great but expensive, I also got a kids rocking chair, and 2 other chairs.
4) Trent & the girls went on a four-wheeler ride by our house and found a swingset. They wanted $350 and he talked them down to $250 then to $200. We had some guys from our ward help us move it on a trailer and we drove it over to our house.
 Also our old one got taken by a guy in our ward it couldn't have worked out more perfectly. Trent put it together and the girls are gonna love it.
5) Evelyn got to come with me to Zumba, my sister in law Annie did a kids night in honor of school getting out. She was scared to dance but after a few songs, she had a blast. And has really got some moves.
6) Since I am always buying photo props I am running out of room in the garage. So, I started to put them in our old barn out front. We swept that out and now I have some chairs in there. Always so many projects to do around here.
7) Lyla was standing in the yard and got bit by lots of piss ants. (ONE THING I H.A.T.E ABOUT THE DESERT) We had 100's of them in our driveway, that appeared after some pipe burst in our neighborhood and flooded our yard. Thank goodness for our friend Jay D. With Baja Pest Control. We called him and now not one ant is out there. phew....Poor Lyla I ran her over to Trent and we turned the hose on full blast, sheez those things can pinch. You can still see the bites. Dear Ants, you threaten my daughter again and well, you know what will happen.....grrrrrrrrrr.
8) Trent received parts from Australia this week for the Mustang. He also decided on a color to paint it. Even though that won't happen for a while. The color is called sonic blue, it's a dark blue. It's gonna be soooo flashy. I tried to talk Trent into a different color but, he loves blue, it's his favorite color. lol
9) I am in the process with setting up my cool cousin Dane Askeroth with Haley Leavitt a family friend. Ok, I have only set up a few people in my life and haven't been successful. However, I am convinced there could maybe be a wedding here. We'll see they go out this weekend. I will keep you updated.
10) The blasted wind here (ANOTHER AWESOME THING ABOUT LIVING IN THE DESERT) lol. Blew a huge tree branch right by our window last night. I was up tossing & turning and think I heard it crash down. Scary if it would have hit our window.
***Here are some chairs & stuff for photo props too. I can't wait to fix up and make my own. Hands down my fav photo here, the girls in their glasses....oh ya!!
