On This Day 13 Years Ago.....

I was nervous, I was giddy, I was impatient, all this for the rumbling arrival of a blue chevy pick-up, and a handsome Mr Wonderful driving it. It was our very first date! He finally agreed to go on a date. I can't spoil any chapters from High School to Housewife but I wanted to celebrate this special occasion with you all. It is really hard to believe that 13 years ago this all truely started.....now we have a great relationship, 4 great kids, a house and a whole beautiful life together! How time flies, seems like yesterday I was riding my horses and contemplating how to get his attention.

Coming soon... High School to Housewife......Why Doesn't He See Me That Way?

Happy Birthday Mr Wonderful!!!!

Today Mr Wonderful turns 34!!!

He was a sweet baby,

Cute kid,

Hot-rodin' fool,

Mean, lean, cookin' machine, (the man can still cook, mmmm mmm.)

Gotta love those glasses!

and most important he is a loving husband and father!

Check out this last pic above, is that not funny? All decked out in hunting gear for the big hunt (macho/manly) and yet he feeds a newborn (all tender and loving). That is exactly the reason I fell in love with him, he is sensitive when it matters and every ounce man when I need it.

Happy Birthday Mr Wonderful!

Makes My Heart Go...Pitter Patter.

Mmmm mmmm, nothing makes my heart go pitter patter like seeing Mr Wonderful holding a baby. Here are my "guys", I just really love them.

Mmmm mmm I love that man!

Mr Wonderful....works

Well here is what Mr Wonderful does......can you say every little boys dream? Basically he gets to play with big boy Tonka's! He has worked with my family's excavation business for over 16 years. The man is a human calulator (mathematically gifted)....that comes in VERY handy when shopping and things are on sale....."Honey how much would this one be if it is 30% off?" "And this one?" "How about all these together then?" Did someone say shopping? Woah there Jules stay on topic here, sorry. Anyway just wanted to give you a sneak peak into our humble way of bringing home the bacon.

There is just something about being on a construction site that makes boys hang out of the car and drool and bounce all around and talk 900 miles per hour with excitement! So much so I sometimes dread it because instantly Spud Man will start telling me all about what is happening and why (then asks ME why) then continues to go on and on about what all he knows.....why do boys do that? It is sooo annoying to us super relaxed and logical females who really do know what is going on (Just pretend, ok? Just pretend).



Although that is not really the whole truth, as much as the kids would like to think he is working in those big machines all day. This next picture is how he now spends a lot of his time, on the phone like this trying to tie up loose ends and manage things....


Something about that safety orange and workboots....mmmm mmmm!

By the way this was the excavation for that new Cayuse Tech Building accross from the casino.....Mr Wonderful did such a great job with managing that job we are working on another big job for the same general contractor.......gotta love good feedback. I am really proud of him.

PS. There are a few kids out there who beleive Mr Wonderful is actually "Bob The Builder". I don't want to break their hearts so we'll just pretend ok?
