Caught the "Big One"

Hope everybody is doing well. Jerrett and I started out the week by finally going to Lake Sakakwea to do some fishing. The only thing we caught that day was a great sunrise.

On Tuesday, Arron, my nephew, and I drove to Grand Forks to see Nickelback in concert. It was awesome. That was the first concert my nephew had been to, I think he was a little disappointed that we weren't on the floor, but I told him that isn't all it's cracked up to be. We drove home after the concert, it turned into a very long drive, especially since the boys were supposed to keep me awake.

Needless to say, they did not stay awake, thank goodness for sunflower seeds!!

On Friday, Arron and I ventured taking the boat up to the Lake, without Jerrett. This is the first time that just the two of us have done this. All went well, and we had perfect weather. There was no wind, whatsoever, so it made loading the boat on the trailer a piece of cake. We only caught one fish that day, but it was a big one!!! I actually caught the fish, but Arron used his expert netting skills to actually get it in the boat.

I'm so excited here, because I don't actually have to touch the fish.

Well, that's our week in a nutshell, hope everybody is enjoying their summer. Todd and Trista, hope Trae is doing good and keep the pictures coming.

IT'S A BOY!!!!

At 11:22 pm on Thursday, July 19th, Trae Patrick Fisher was born. He is a healthy 6 lb, 14 oz, 19 inch bundle of joy. Trista is doing well despite the catastrophy with the epideral (long story), but we are excited and ready to be parents. I think Grandma and Grandpa are ready as well along with numerous other volunteers to babysit whenever we need it. He doesnt quite have a golf club in his hand yet (it doesnt fit, i tried), but im sure it will just be a matter of time. It sounds like we will be able to go home tomorrow sometime, so that is exciting news. Thanks to all who wished us well and yes i will put pictures on as soon as i get some time, hopefully tomorrow. Thanks again and we love you all.

New One on the Way!!!

Don't get to excited just yet, but hopefully within 24 hours we can. Trista will be going in tomorrow (Thursday) at 7 am to begin the induction process. We decided, due to the fact doctor Arnold will be leaving Friday, that this would be the route to go. She has started to dialate and he felt it was managable to go ahead and do this. We are very excited and can not wait to see our first little one for the first time. I also think grandma is ready for this as well. We actually thought it might be like a soap opera and she would knock out a nurse and steal her clothes, but she swears she wont so we'll believe her. Well hopefully the next time I post we will have great news and a new baby to show off. I still think Todd JR. would be a great name for a boy, but Trista isn't so sure. Oh, we are not sure if its a boy or a girl so thats just wishful thinking.

John's graduation and Cabin update

John graduated from his police training on Saturday. He gets officially certified when he takes a test in August.






Our trip to the cabin following the graduation was an interesting one... A lot of work had been done, yet some of that was work they hadn't discussed doing (i.e. steps from guest cabin to driveway). Modifications to the stairway are going to be done so that the huge ramp at the end won't be there, and also so that it remains at ground level instead of being raised off the ground.
Middle window of the 3 windows on the left was added

Balcony is complete!

Basement windows installed. (2nd window added on left and the single large window was replace with 2 smaller ones on the right)

The unexpected stairs...
