Another week

I haven't posted any pictures of the kids lately, so here are some random pictures. I also forgot to post Eric's picture of his scar from surgery, for those who wanted to see it. Aubrey was a stinker though while taking the pictures, and would only stand there for a second and then come running to me to look at the picture. More than half of the time I hadn't even taken the picture yet. Most of them turned out blurry because she was running.

This weekend was very uneventful. I babysat our neighbors kids Thursday night, all day Friday, and then Zac came and helped babysit Saturday night. They were really good. Eric and his friend just wanted to play "Thomas the train" the entire time. His friend brought over his train and tracks and they would make a massive track for the trains to ride on.

I was going to post a picture of Zac's car after his accident, but Zac fixed the car before I could. He tied the front end of the car onto a pole, and hooked the backend up to his backhoe, and drove the backhoe until his car started to retain it's original shape. Then he pounded out the rest of the dents and the car looks almost as good as new. We are still getting a check for the car since they totaled it out, but it runs still, so we are still going to continue driving it into the ground.

We are getting sued by the Homeowners Association. They put a lien on our house. We are pretty upset about it. Our neighborhood is not part of this HOA, we NEVER signed anything to become a part of it, etc. I have found a LOT of case law that backs us up on our position, etc. So we will be counter suing the HOA. Zac called and was upset with the law firm that put the lien on our house, it was a little premature since the Judge hasn't made a ruling yet! If the Judge rules in their favor (which I don't see happening) we will turn around and sue our builder to pay for the HOA fees. Our entire neighborhood is involved in this. We even have our original paperwork from the builder that states "No HOA", our title company wrote a letter for us stating that we were not part of the HOA, and they would need to report it on our title if we were a part of it, I got the same kind of letter from our loan officer, and when we called Eagle Mountain City, they ALSO said we were NOT a part of it. I really am just frustrated that they are wasting our time on this! The whole reason we moved to the house that we did was because we did not want to be in a HOA. Anyways, enough venting about that.
