I wish to be more consistent with journaling, however, life gets too busy. So here I am with a long post because I have a month to report. March began with Tim uncovering the big rock, “Bertha” in our backyard. As he uncovered it, there was a perfect little seating area. I called it the rock lounge. Bertha is a really big rock and Tim is determined to shrink it. He bought some expanding chemical to pour in one inch drilled holes. As the chemical expands, it breaks the rock. He is working hard to get the house in shape before the end of March for Amy and Ethan. They will be visiting and heading up to Idaho for Jacob’s and Jaden’s wedding.
Xadia loves crazy hair day. With the help of mom and dad, she was able to make her hair crazy and stand up. I am glad Tim had some wire to construct a frame for her pony tails.
Each week, we as a family clean the FiberTel office building. It is good family time. The kids usually bring a friend who has the opportunity to earn money and spend an hour with the Fishers. Everybody has their chore. Jacinda mops. McCabe vacuums. Xadia wipes surfaces. Teagan empties the trash. Mom cleans the bathrooms. Dad supervises. After cleaning, we stop by Maverick for a f’real shake. So far the kids have been really good about cleaning and do not complain. They know it is a weekly task to keep on their schedule.
Teagan turned 9 this year. We celebrated with a minecraft cake and a day at Get Air Trampoline Park. The kids jumped and ran around like little monkeys. It was fun to watch them. They all had a good time and were so thirsty by the end. I bought water for everyone. The kids drank and watch the Lego movie as we drove home. Once home, Teagan opened presents and ate his cake and ice cream. It was then time to take the kids home. The time went really fast.
McCabe and Jacinda got jobs at Lagoon. McCabe will be working in landscaping and Jacinda will be a team lead in the ticketing department. This will be Jacinda’s 3rd year. She really loves her job and co-workers. I am glad she is having a good experience.
Teagan had a loose tooth that was too stubborn to fall out on its own. He had to go to the dentist and have it pulled. It took 10 minutes to numb his mouth and 10 seconds to pull out the tooth. The tooth was decayed and very gross looking. It was a good thing to pull it out. After the dentist, we went to Artic Circle to get an Oreo Milkshake. Unfortunately, Article Circle was not open at 9:00 a.m. So we went home and I made him a mint chocolate chip milkshake.
I had the opportunity to attend McCabe’s wrestling match. It was fantastic watching him wrestle. I am so proud of the maneuvers he did. He did a great job since he had to wrestle a higher weight class. I am glad he enjoys wrestling and that he does it. There seems to be a bunch of nice boys on his team. After the match, I was talking to McCabe about some of his teammates and some of the opponents. McCabe then told me about a guy on his team. When I asked him to describe him, he said the he resembled Lord Farquaad from Shrek. I did not expect that description and it made me laugh.
