What We've Been Up To

So here's the latest with the Feyen Family:

Our septic tank has been fixed for a lot less then we were first quoted.  We were very happy with the company we went with and so happy the job is complete!  Now we just need to reseed the yard and put in a patio.  However, that will all have to wait.

Jon is back to studying for the CPA exam.  He has two sections left to go.  Both are retakes.  He decided to retake the audit section at the end of May because that is the most recent section he took, so it's relatively fresh in his mind and he has less time to study for it.  He hopes to take the other section later in the summer.  Praying he passes these sections this time around so the exam part will be over for his CPA license.  He will then have to get so many hours of tax and auditing experience before they issue his license, but that's the easy part.  He is looking forward to getting this behind him.  =)

Jon HAS found time to start his garden.  It's huge!  He has planted red potatoes, normal potatoes, yellow beans, green beans, zucchini, cucumbers, little pumpkins, watermelon, carrots, lettuce, corn and tomatoes.  Yes, its a ton, but this is our trial year to see how things grow and how bad the deer will be.  One of the downsides to Pittsburgh.  Wish those deer weren't so brave!

Julianna has been loving the warm weather and being outside.  She's still afraid of Jon's tractor, but she's learning to tolerate it better which is good.  She is definitely a very active toddler.  I'm glad the weather is so nice so she can be outside and run off some of the energy she has.

We all recently went to Michigan for a few days.  While we were there, we went to Big Star to see Jon's parents new trailer and so Jon could help them start rebuild their deck.  The trailer is awesome!  After being up there, we are very excited for our week at the lake.

Well that's about all I can think of right now!  Hope you are all doing well!  MUCH LOVE!
