spring is here!

this week has finally been good weather - it feels like spring! here's some of the highlights from the past week:


-kyle started work for the forest service and was in Moab every day for work


-we are now fully covered with health insurance! it feels so great to know that if kyle saws his leg off with his chainsaw, we won't have the pay the bill out of our pocket! :)


-we worked all day on monday on the roof and really got a lot done! the whole family was here to help.

-i stepped on a long nail just as we were finishing up on monday night. yep, it punctured through everything, shoe, sock and skin. we don't know how far it went in. luckily, kyle's cousin Roxy was right there with me and had to pull the board with the nail on it out of my foot - i couldn't get it off by myself! Roxy is a nurse, and she ran to get kyle who carried me in the house and sat on the couch by me as Roxy found some of my nursing supplies from nursing school and cleaned the wound out good. it HURT!!! i was up to date on my tetanus shot, so everything was ok. it still hurts now and again, but i'm ok, and kyle was my hero and comfort through the whole thing!


i think that about wraps it up for the Curtis clan happenings for the week!
This is kyle and i after Kelvin's graduation.
i walked in the room the other night and found kyle like this - how can you resist that!?!





kyle made tinfoild dinners for us last night. last summer he made this rock cookout spot and benches for his mom! isn't he amazing!?! and all those bark shavings are from a cedar post bed that kyle and his friend casen are building.


planting our little part of the garden!

Anna! Remember when you slept over at my apt (in Russia) and we read from our Russia Journals?! That was so awesome. You should post some funny stories that you wrote (the ones that made you laugh)...for memories sake, and so I can read it!
