A Fun Weekend

Kyle and I started out our weekend on Friday night by tending Garrett. When we walked in the house he immediately headed for the closet and got out the vacuum. After convincing Uncle Kyle to plug it in for him he proceeded to vacuum the living room and kitchen for over an hour. If only he were about a foot taller so that the vacuum could actually reach the floor and do some good. The video is a little dark but you can see how thorough he is. He doesn't just do the same area over and over he got the whole floor and then moved onto the kitchen.



Saturday morning Kyle attempted to get me up at 8:00 am to go rake leaves. I wasn't about to get out of bed that early on my one day of the week to sleep in. Unfortunately, guilt finally drove me out of bed at 9:00 and I went out and helped him. Why do I have to have a conscience? Life would be so much more fun without it.

Robert is coming home in December for a visit so we then moved some furniture back into the basement apartment and put the bed back together for when he gets here. We moved out the non-working washer and dryer so we can clean up the laundry room before we install the washer and dryer Kyle's uncle Dick gave us. It will be nice to get that taken care of so I don't have to haul laundry back and forth to Mom and Dad's anymore.

We then headed to Salt Lake where we exchange some wedding gifts and used our gift cards to get a set of pans and some other things we needed. It's a lot of fun to shop when you aren't actually spending your own money. We ended the night by going to the Collin Raye concert at the Desert Star Theater with Kyle's Mom and Dad, and his sister Karianne and her fiance Jason. It was an amazing night and we had a great time. The theater only holds 200 people so we had a great view and he put on an awesome show.

Kyle's surgery is scheduled for Friday so let's all hope and pray that it happens without any more delays. Please keep him in your prayers. We sure appreciate everyone's love and concern. I will keep you updated on how it goes.

I saw all the bags of leaves sitting at your place- feel free to come and do our next! Garrett vacuuming is hilarious- Nat showed us the text that said he had been going for 45 minutes. We will for sure be keeping Kyle in our prayers!
