Out with the Old, In with the New!

Last Friday we had our friends, Bryce and Caitlin, over to finish Caitlin's mother day present for her mom.  Vanda asked me to do the dishes and I discovered that the disposal really stunk.  We didn't have any citrus fruit in the house to put down there to help it smell better, so I used apple cider vinegar for the time being.  Well that didn't help much, so on Saturday Vanda bought a disposal cleaner that we used that night.  It said to clean two to four minutes, so at the three minutes mark we heard this clinging around in the disposal and at four minutes it basically overheated and died.  We let it set over night to cool down but it only made a buzzing sound once it was reset and turned on.  Thanks to Vanda's brother, she was able to order a new one and have it here by Tuesday and we installed it that day, which happens to be yesterday. Here are a few pictures that capture the moment. :)

All finished and working like a pro!
There is nothing this girl can't do.  On Monday I put a grill together and cooked 24 hamburgers and about 14 hot dogs for our friends and families.  That is another story, so our friend Laura's husband Todd, was going to come over monday to check out our leaking stop and waste valve.  So we decided to invite there family over for a BBQ.  Then our friend Tamera's husband Tony came over to till our garden, so we invited there family over as well.  But it all started when Harwards family was going to come up for FHE to pull out our bushes in the backyard and trim the rest of the bushes and grass around to make it look inviting.  So we ended up having Harward's dad, mom and little brother, Tamera, Tony, Caitlin, Bryce, Noah, Laura, Todd, Austin, His friend who's name starts with an A, Megan, and Andrew, along with Vanda, Harward, Beas and me, that's 18 people.  It was a house full but lots of fun!  Anyway I left work, filled the propane tank and spent the next hour and a half putting the BBQ together in 80+ degree weather.  WOWZA it was HOT!!!

You're amazing! But we knew that already :) I have to laugh though at the 80 degree weather comment though because 80 degrees sounds so wonderful right now. I wish I could have come to the BBQ too! You are welcome to come visit me in Mesa anytime ;)
