Happy Fall Ya-All!


It has been soooooo long since I have updated this blog! I am not going to try to play catch up or else I would be totally overwhelmed! Things are going well here at the Shadd household... We finally broke ground on our new home! Yea! It is going to be a totally slow process, but of course, well worth the wait! I shall try to post photos occasionally... or make up a slideshow or something creative like that. I've planted around 19 trees in front of the new house, and a photo of the most recent is above... Acer Sun Valley... pretty cool color change pattern... Hey I'm easily amused!

The business is doing well and I'm doing the "Happy Happy Joy Joy" dance because I don't have to work in the office anymore! Another Yea! Well I pop in to sign checks occasionally, but mostly my friend Christy is managing the office. Thank you Christy! We had a truck & trailer blow over from the heavy winds last week down in Modesto... so needless to say, the business keeps Mike on his toes. Hayden has been keeping busy with the usual things for him... playing flag football, riding his dirtbikes, and he is especially proud of the new blue rim on his bicycle. Koltin has become a Halo expert and plays online everynight with his best buddy Uncle Jeremy... It's amusing to listen to the two of them talking to people all over the world with their little headsets... They scream things like "Sniper" and "Behind you!"... we just roll our eyes as we walk past Kolt's bedroom. Silly boys.



We've had a few new additions to the family this spring & summer... Ella, Hudson & Emma. The top photo is of Emma (my cousin Bobbies's daughter), next is little Ella (Mike's sister Kathy & Randy's daughter) & then comes Hudson (my cousin Lynsey & Jarred's son)...They are all way cute and I'm going to love taking photos of them for the rest of their lives... whether they like it or not!







Well we are off to the coast for the weekend, so hopefully I'll have some fab photos to add next week! Happy Fall Ya-All!
