Oh what a glorious day!
I have a sinking feeling, I won't know what to say!!
Nah, just kidding. I always can talk or write as the case may be. So how are all of you? I'm doing pretty darn good. Starting to get some projects finished that have been ongoing for quite awhile!
The Garage Sale will be this month. I love having garage sales. Getting rid of my junk, cleaning out the garage and getting paid for the stuff I have been packing away all winter and spring. Yep I love it!! I've also been working on an area to put our outdoor chimnea. We have to go to my dad's to get some more sandstone before I can finish it. I think it will be really cool when we get done.
I have to put trim up in the livingroom and then I'm not sure which project to start next. If I can get James motivated, I'd like to make and put a shelf unit up that will cover the short wall behind the TV. It would be a great place to put all of our DVD's and movies. Just takes time and a little money.
Set the kids pool up a couple days ago. They have been begging for it so Levi and I finally did it. Jeremiah loves to play in it as does Brendon. Last night we laughed so hard at them. Of course they had no idea that we were watching. Brendon was showing Jeremiah how to go underwater with goggles and a snorkel. That was fun and then they started cannonballing into it from over the side. Brendon can clear the side when he jumps but Jeremiah doesn't always make it. It is quite funny to see him bounce backward off the side. He finally made it and was so proud!! Anyway they sure have fun in it. Which is good as today is suppose to be unbearably hot (again)!!
Well I think I better get started on the day before it gets to hot to move. I'll write more on my projects as they are started and completed. Tell me what is going on in your life.
And DBIL tag your it! ;~)

Okay! So it's been awhile...
Holy Buckets!! I can't believe its been so long!! My BIL sent me and asked when I was going to post again so here I am. I didn't think it had been long but wow! Okay enough of that!!
Everything is fine here. Can't complain...well at least not too loudly! : ) We have just been unbelievably busy. Summers are always hectic. James works more hours and this year so am I. My little gal that I babysit is only suppose to be here 2 or 3 days a week but for the last 2 1/2 weeks I've had her pretty much every day. Makes for a long week. Weekends have been busy with picnics, crops, work, Mother's Day and Father's Day.
We had a family picnic ( my mom's side) on Father's Day. That was fun. I hadn't seen a lot of my cousins in a long time. Seems like the only time we all get together is when there is a death in the family or serious illness. So it was great just to get together to have fun. We had it at the park, so the kids had a blast. There is a playground, a tennis court, and a wading pool with squirters and fountains. It was a great day.
The weekend before, I had a crop. It was really pretty good, although there was a mixup with the room and we had to set up in a different room so we couldn't stay as late as usual. It still was a good crop and I finished quite a few pages. Then today I went to my sister's house and cropped with her. I think I finished about 4 two page spreads, or 8 pages. I love getting things done. I am only 2 years behind. (give or take a month)
I am getting ready to paint the inside of my house. I need to finish the trim in the livingroom then I am going to do some finish work in the boys room and paint it. After that I want to clean out the game room and paint it, then maybe do some work in the hall and washroom. Last but not least I want to paint my cupboards and the kitchen. We will see how far I get. I mean I still have to keep up with the kids and the housework!! A woman's work is never done!! Ha! Ha!
Levi has a new job that he started on Monday. I hope it works for him as he seems to really like it and he gets to work days...outside. Makes life a little easier on all of us.
Well I better get going. James and Jeremiah want to have some fun. Have a great day all!!
