We are so beyond LUCKY!

I really don't know how we get so incredibly lucky! Last week Cheyenne got a freak rain/ hail /wind / whatever else you can think of storm! Pretty much everyone we know who has a basement flooded! (most people do NOT carry flood insurance) well we were one of the lucky ones who do not have a finished basement because both of our window wells filled up with water(twice) and the second time one window cracked and filled our basement! Now we had opened a window to let the water in so we would be able to save the actual window. I REALLY wish in mist of all this I grabbed a camera and took a picture! We only lost a box of cook books! How are we super lucky, the window broke and filled our basement?! The house we SUPER wanted(when we were house hunting) filled up with 5 FEET  of water. I actually cried when we found out that someone else had already bought the house..now I know we are so blessed! Ill take my broken window and box of cook books!

now on to my Khloe! She loves our front door. She opens it and closes it alllllllll day long! 

 She is always so happy and pretty much the easiest baby ever...I gave her a chair and she was happy to walk around it and hit it for a good 2 hours!

  See she has my eye color! She looks nothing like me and all like Steve but she DOES have my eye color!

 HAHA this is the pose she does when she isn't sure about something!

 When Buddy goes outside to bark( we have no idea what to do about him barking...) Khloe Yells "BUYYYY" over and over again...And when she really gets into it she stands on her toes!

alright she is a Hansen at heart! look at that pose drinking her bottle! She was not feeling 100% that day and she stayed in her pj's all day and watched a movie(Beauty and the Beast probably 6 times) and a couple on demand Ummi Zoomies! 

Khloe is creeping up on her 1 year birthday...This year has FLOWN by!  

We are in Utah for the next two weeks!!!! We get to see Great Grandmas, cousins, and Grandma and Grandpa Cobbley!! I wish we lived closer to everyone, I miss big family functions but I DO NOT miss Rock Springs....

deck

We have been super busy doing house projects and we finally know why! The neighbors said that the guy who lived here before us was an alcoholic! and he did everything himself, while drinking a couple 12 packs! hinting why everything looks horrible and doesn't quite work right! our deck point in case. many boards were not screwed in, it hadn't been stained in 8 years...and he did it himself(doesn't meet code.) But we took care of all the problems that bugged us and made it look a lot nicer! no more splinters for us!!!

 We still have a lot to do( the awkward stones at the bottom?) and underneath we need to put the product on. But it looks sooo much better! we have actually started to use the deck!

Now we are removing all the rock in the back yard and putting grass in(well seed) and hopefully it takes and next year we will have a big yard to play in!
