We're making progress! March was an exciting month as Ali turned 1 and our house is almost halfway done! Above is the front of our house! Windows are in....front door in....roof on. They will be sheet-rocking by the end of the week! Yeah! We've had a whirlwind of decisions to make lately but it has been so fun! Hyrum love going to the house everyday and checking things out wiht me. Poor Ben only gets to visit a few times a week between work and school! He's almost done with his first semester! Hooray! Below is a picture of the back of our house! Most of you probably don't care to see the inbetween stages of our house but this is the only way to keep our parents updated! 
The house is all framed and here is a picture of the future kitchen/dining room which opens up to our great room.
This is a picture of our great room. The fireplace is in!
Same picture of the great room but a little farther back (i'm taking it from the entry)
This is a picture of our entryway and stairs down to the basement.
So, my pictures are backward but here is our sweet Alison Ruth that turned 1! I can't believe a year has gone by. I reflected alot on our journey to have Ali join our family and am so grateful for her. Everytime she is throwing a tantrum or getting into something...I remind myself it was all worth it and how grateful I need to be for her! She is a little spit fire and loves to keep us entertained! We love our crazy red head! Happy First Birthday Ali!
Ali digging into our cake...she wasn't as messy as Hyrum was but still got messy!
Her butterfly cake I made...saw the idea on pinterest....it turned out okay..not great...but okay.
We had to speak in our new ward on her birthday. Ali and Daddy all dressed for church! Ben's mom was here for Ali's birthday too and it was great! She spoiled me with Time Out for Women and a date night with Ben to see Hunger Games! She also helped during church while we spoke! Thanks Grandma!
The wonderful Caralee Case had her yearly Easter mini sessions and I took advantage and got Hyrum & Ali's pictures done. It was perfect timing since they were 2 weeks before Ali's 1st Birthday. Here are a few of my favorites! Can't wait to get to the new house to put some up!
Feels good to finally get the blog updated! My life revolves around house stuff right now so to have a few seconds to update the blog is great! In 2 months hopefully we'll be in our new house!
