Cross Roads

I feel like I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. Why did the economy have to suck right when we are trying to sell our house and move back home? Brandon and I have some tough decisions to make in the next two months - to buy a house or rent one, to sell our house or rent it out,. What if we can't get it to sell or rent out. What then?
What to do if Brandon tops out of his Apprenticeship and can't move to Snowflake. What if he gets stuck in taking a job in Douglas for example. Its back to the long distance relationship AGAIN. Having a husband and the kids having a dad on the weekends only. We have dealt with this for 4 YEARS and I wish it would go away, finally. It is truly is amazing Brandon and I have stayed as strong in our relationship as we have, with all the out of town working - we are talking months at a time of only seeing eachother Friday night thru Sunday Afternoon- and all of the obstacles we have hurdled. It feels like the more responsible we are, the harder we try to do the right thing, the crappier our outcomes. I am tired of putting our lives on hold because of the decisions that others make, mold our lives.
UH, it sucks getting older and having responsibilities sometimes.... All I know is I will be ready for a week of NO responsiblities other than what cocktail I want with my shrimp in Mexico come June. The next two months are going to be a challenge and HUGE DECISIONS for Brandon and I to make.
I guess hold on, and see what happens.

A boy and his dog

The newest addition to the Evans Family:

Tug.

The aussie.
Kohan absolutely loves him too.

(I know, what am I thinking? - newborn + puppy= no sleep.)

And Little Miss Paige is already 3 weeks old! Time flies by so fast.

L.O.V.E.

Just thought I would share this cute father-daughter moment. Paige Celebrating St. Pattricks Day.
Kohan is spending the week with his Nanna and Pappa at the ranch. My house is erie quiet without him around. I miss him, can't wait to pick him up on Sunday.

All in a days work.

We had family day today. And it was great. We went and got Paige's newborn pictures done, and pictures of Kohan and Paige together. (They turned out so cute, can't wait to post them.) In assuring that Kohan behaved himself during pictures we took him to McDonald's to get his happymeal and then took him to a mini carnival as a reward for being good. He got to ride a ferris wheel - wish I had my camera the look on his face was priceless.And then flew his dad in a mini helicopter. He helped his dad work on his "race car" as Kohan calls it, and rode his four wheeler to the park. He then wanted to have a campout in his room to take a nap.

After a long hard day of playing and being cute. For both of them.
