windows, windows and more windows

Well the last few weeks at our house have revolved around the beginnings of some minor and some major remodeling for our house. We now have all new Precision Fit Double Hung Pella windows in our house!! It is so nice to not have to mess with the storms anymore and I am hoping to do a better job keeping the new windows clean, inside and out, than I did with our old ones. We got the interior trim back up this week so they are more or less finished! Perfect timing since my "handyman" decided they needed a vacation, my mom and dad are off to CO for a week. Next we need to work on the kitchen walls so we can paint the walls, ceiling, counters and have the new flooring installed!!!! I can't wait!!!

Nile's in Preschool

Nile and Aubrey before Nile's first day of school at Creation Station

playtime

I had the pleasure of being the snack mom for the first day for preschool. Nile hadnt been feeling well earlier in the week but I was hopefully he would pull through and been feeling better before his first day of school. Luckily I was right and he was back to his normal self by wednesday night. He was sad to miss his first night of WOW at church but we watched Rio instead so he didnt mind too much.

Nile has now had three days of school and seems to be enjoying it a lot! Next fall it is going to be pretty quiet at this house!! But I am sure Aubrey and I will find something to fill our time!! :-)

New additions to the Rozenboom household

Well it has been a little while since my last post so I thought I would take a minute to update you on some of the happenings around our small piece of the world. I have been super busy with school - what was I thinking taking three classes, on of which being Latin!! The kids and I were checking on our fish tank last weekend and our final fish was no where to be found so I decided it was finally time to completely clean the tank out and start over. We drained the tank and washed out the rocks as best we could - and by me I mean me of course. The next day we headed to Wal-Mart to get a new "bubble system" for lack of a better term and got the tank refilled and let the water set before picking up some new fish the next afternoon. We picked out four fish and added them to our tank - only to discover that one was dead the next morning :(

Fast forward a week or so and we just happened to be in DSM today to go to the zoo and pick up something for Hayden's upcoming 7th (yikes) birthday and there was a Petco nearby so we stopped in and picked out four new little fish! They have been added to our tank and hopefully they will all be swimming right side up by morning!!

God Bless!
