August 16th 2009!

January 9th, 2009

The time has finally arrived, we are pregnant again. After almost 3 years, another little baby Gibbons is on the way.  Come on girl!  Tyler is already jealous and doesn’t want mommy to have a baby in her tummy.  He wants his mommy all to himself.  Beka is already starting to feel the lovely effects of pregnancy.  The morning/night sickness started this week, she has been munching up a storm, and is getting about twice as much sleep as me.  Not fair…  We are super stoked and can’t wait to see our little baby in just a few short months!

Cement Ya’ll!

December 11th, 2008

They started preping for the cement on Monday. They dug the trench for the 3″ pipe so we can run the water pipe back for sprinklers. They also trenched for the gutter pipe and burried that. Then on Tuesday they came and cut the gutter down so the whole thing is open to drive on. Today they came and poured all the cement. It looks fantastic! We can’t drive on it for a little bit but it will be great when it is dried. I’m really excited about my basketball standard. It has been a long time since I have had one and I can’t wait. Will be fun to play with Tyler too!

While I was working this weekend, Beka and Tyler got Christmas all set up in the house. They got the tree up and all decorated. Made it start to feel like home. Tyler is holding the new ornament for this year. A Y football…Shocking! The boy loves his Cougars and loves his football.

Garage Shelves!

December 3rd, 2008

James came down on Saturday and helped me build some pimpin’ shelves in the garage. We also put up my workbench as well. He showed me how to suspend the shelves from the ceiling using chain. they are super strong. We were both able to hang from them without it even moving. Woooo!

Jazz Game!

December 3rd, 2008

We went to the Jazz game on the day before Thanksgiving. This was Tyler’s first Jazz game. I got him a jersey last year, but I couldn’t get him to wear it. But he loves it now. We went with my dad and Trent and his son Garrett. Tyler ate all of grandpa’s popcorn. The boy can put down popcorn like nobodys business. Tyler also couldn’t help but beat me with his noise sticks. He can’t wait to go to the next game.

All Moved In!

November 24th, 2008

Well we got all moved over the weekend.  We got keys at 3:30pm at our final walk through and then we started moving the apt stuff on Thursday night.  My dad, Mykl, Leandro, and Nick all came over and helped us clear out the apt.  We were able to get all but a couple things moved over to the house that night. 

Friday we both took off and spent the day unpacking and having things delivered.  We got the Washer and Dryer, entertainment center, and bedroom set all delivered and set up.  Mykl and I re-wired the mechanical room and installed the surround sound speakers.  We got the DirecTV and Qwest internet all set up as well.  Jechelle, our realtor came over and brought us lunch and then stayed to help Beka unpack.  We got almost everything unpacked and put in place before bringing in the storage unit stuff.

Saturday we met at the storage unit to complete the move.  Mykl, Trent, Dave, Dan, Jim, James, Leandro, Nick, Ray, Tommy, and Angela all showed up and we loaded up the truck in about an hour.  Drove it over to the house and had it unloaded in about 30 minutes.  We started putting together a few things and putting more stuff away.  I bought some storage racks and assembled them in the crawl space, and then moved a bunch of the baby clothes and boxes down to the racks.

Thank you to everyone that helped us out this weekend and throughout our several moves, we greatly appreciate it!  I will get some new pictures posted tonight of the final product with us all moved in.

Countertops…Finally!

November 13th, 2008

Today we finally got countertops. This means that we also set our final walkthrough date. Which also means that we have a date that we are all done. Our final walkthrough will be Monday. We should be receiving keys in the late afternoon on November 20th. It is cool to see the countertops finally. Before all we got to see was a 4×4 sample square. All of the countertops look fantasic. They will be coming tomorrow to finish all the plumbing and mirrors.

Appliances & Carpet!

November 11th, 2008

I haven’t posted in a few days because not a ton of stuff has been going on. Some of the clean up work isn’t as excited. So I decided to hold off and post the fun stuff. We finally got news today that the counter top materials came in. For the people that aren’t up to date we are about a week behind at this point. I am going to update the count down to have an ETA of 11/21. I am really stressing because I was really hoping to get all of our stuff delivered and installed before the BYU vs. Utah game on 11/22. I was also hoping to move the majority of the apt next week. Best case scenerio we will get keys at 4:30pm on 11/20, and worst case scenerio is that we won’t get keys until 4:30pm on 11/21. This will be a problem for DirecTV and Qwest installs. Not too worried about the furniture because they all deliver on Saturdays. We got all of the appliances installed yesterday as well as all of the carpet. We also noticed that they installed the gutters around the house. Most of what is left is just little stuff, minus the counter tops.
