Hot and Humid!

These past few days have defiently been the dog days of summer. We have been blessed though and have not had too many of them! This weekend Josh is taking the kids to see his mom by himself while I go to Women of Faith! I can not wait!!! It is going to be SOOOO much fun! Yesterday the kids did get a chance to play outside for a short time in the evening. Both boys have diahrah not too much fun! :( I am glad that this work week is over with. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Where has the summer gone?

We have been so busy! I can hardley believe that Friday is Auguest 1st! That means Lily starts school in two weeks! Yikes!!!!!! Today we went and got her back pack. She picked out a Little Pony one. We had a wonderful time in Iowa visiting family. I really did not want to come back! When we got to Grinnell I felt like we should have been home but we had a long way to go. One day I'll be back in Iowa! Today Grandma Trish was at our house so I got to scrapbook some which is always nice. This weekend I am going to go to Women of Faith with some frineds. I am hoping that we will have a great time. While in Iowa we went to Adventureland, shopping and of course swimming. Sand and I ate at the WONDERFUL Waterfront resturant! Yummy!!!!

Got to get one!

About two weeks ago I went to a new salon and had my hair cut. The gal used a FLAT IRON on my hair and I am totally hooked. I am so excited about the way it made my hair look so smooth and sleek. Yup, now I'm in the market to get a flat iron!

Memorial Day!

The dirt and hole before! Notice we are making a flower bed around the tree! :)

Half way there! Lots of sand!

Tada the finished product but not enough sand! :) Oh well we can always get more!: )

We built a sand box over the Memorial Day weekend. It started with a hole, then going to Lafayette to get the supplies. 25 bags of sand, 8 landscaping timbers and screws. This was very interesting because I had no set plan just knew what I wanted. So, when I called a couple of guys from church to come lend a drill I had two men helping with this project also. Needless to say the kids are happy and I'm happy that William will now have a place to dig other than my flower bed!
