Heyes Family

My Grandma Pheifer is so talented, yet so humble, Im sure no one will have been shown this so I will show it off. We were so touched to recieve this painting of the kids from Grandma. We will treasure it forever.

  I have wanted to be an RN for as long as I can remember…  and guess what…  heres the Certificate to prove I finally did it!  So I guess a little girls dreams DO come true once and a while…

And I am haappily saying bye bye to this big stack of gloom

THANK YOU to my two little motivators, and also to EVERYONE who supported me, helped me, and believed in me!

After months of studying, I have finally taken my NCLEX-RN, and I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just thought I would post some photos of grandpas plane

Ted is starting his lessons as soon as some modifications have taken place…

Me…ermm…..As soon as possible….When…ermm…Dont wanna think about it Ill just sit and drool for now

Getting all festive here, as fall approaches.  I’m learning slowly, but after taking the advice from my dear sister(who has far more experience that me in this dept) to use glue stick, this project went pretty good!

We have had the great fortune recently of spending time with many of our various cousins, from different parts of the country, and different parts of the World.  The kids have been loving every minute of it.  We are so fortunate to have such wonderful family, some  that live neer us, and the others that come and visit us from great distances!

Time seems to slip away without us realizing!  Life goes on in the Heyes household.  There are new photos posted on FLICKR, which include a few that where done for a project with Stephens work. ENJOY!

So, things are going well here at the Heyes Household.  First and foremost, I found out that I actually passed my CGFNS nusing exam that  I had to go to Chicago to take!  It is very exciting that I only have one exam to go (NCLEX-RN) till I have my RN liscence here in the US! I will hopefully find out in the next few days when I can take that one!

My Garden is doing well…  It produced this rather nice head of broccoli… which was DELICIOUS!  We also have lots of lettuce, zuchinni and cucumbers on their way!

   

Kristian is still REALLY enjoying school, and we are amazed at the development we see daily.  He is really benifiting from such a fun and educationaly stimulating environment!

   

And Erin continues to grow, along with her hair… very pweety pwetty

  

Erin also loves to think she is “helping” us with everything. 

  

And the cats?  Well, they are making themselves quite at home!

So, we have added to the family, two cute 10 month male old cats.  We adopted them from the Neenah animal shelter, who got them as strays and named them kit and kat.  We like the names, so will call them that too…  I think its obvious in the photos that they have been a HUGE hit with the kids….  Ste, not so much… he’s been sneezing ever since we got them   Hes willing to give it a try though, and we have been researching different ways of keeping the dander down.  Overall, pets sure do add another dimension to the family…  I think the cats are EXTREMELY hungry for any attention they can get, because, as you can see, they are also EXTREMELY tolerant of the kids!

So, here is what we have been doing lately…

We are selling our van…

 it is really nice… Wanna buy it???

We made a trip to Chicago so i could take a Nursing Exam… It was REALLY tough… will find out in a few weeks if I passed or not.

This is Erin’s idea of “helping with supper!”

We experienced what it would be like having 6 kids… Not bad actually

We had a lot fun at the Timber Rattlers Baseball game (local Appleton team.)

So, what else is new??? Not a whole lot… I’ve been working a lot, and Ste has been working from home quite a bit. Also, Ive been keeping up with weeding and watering the garden, which I have been pleasantly surprised with the plants progress… I can see some baby zucchini out there, and we have had a few fresh salads already too! All in all, we are having a fun and healthy summer… long may it last! Oh, and I will try to update this more frequently now… Good intentions are worth something, right?
