2 Weeks and Counting

On Sunday we had our monthly Beckstrom Family Birthday Dinner. The lucky birthday kids were our cousin Dave and CHEYENNE!! Chy will turn 1 year old on the 31st. I can't believe it's been a year already, time flew by!! Here are some pics from the party when Chy was opening her presents. We'll have more to come when we celebrate her birthday on her birthday!

How mean am I?

So my mom and I were at Walmart on Saturday and they had a those mechanical rides that the little kids can ride on and I thought it would be fun to let Cheyenne ride on one. Boy, was I wrong. It was sad, yet I couldn't keep myself from laughing. It was a jeep that had a monkey in the passenger seat and an elephant and giraffe in the back seat. I thought she would enjoy playing with the steering wheel as the car went up and down. Well as you can see, this was a very traumatic event!!

Nothin' too new to report

There hasn't been anything too exciting to report lately. Mike has been out of work since March 19th because of his back. He's had problems for almost 3 years after lifting a lawn mower, and now his back is finally saying "Hey, I'm through with manual labor!!! Get a different job and get it now because I quit!" Luckily he doesn't have to have surgery, we found out he has facit arterosis (a fancy way of saying arthritis). He's in physical therapy now for a while and hopefully will be able to return to work by May 1st but it will have to be something besides throwing freight, what, we don't know yet. So all in all it's been kinda fun to have him around so much, he's getting to spend a lot of time with Chy and they both love it. Chyenne finally cut her first tooth on April 8th!!! Yea, finally after 10 months!! And for me, I finish my CLA in 2 weeks!!!!! Then it's Mike's turn to go back to school-he he he he. :) We are happy and happily in love with our family and learning how blessings come in mysterious packages!

International Sportsman's Expo

So last weekend we went to the Sportsman's Expo. It was crowded to say the least, but you'd be surprised how much room people give you when you have a stroller. Chy had a good time, I think. She looked like she was having yelling at people as they walked by and seeing the big stuffed animals. The sad thing is, only one picture came out on my phone :( Oh well!
