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!!

Now, that wasn't so bad was it?
I love you guys!
We are busy too - mostly me trying to keep the kids occupied so they don't fuss and bicker all day. I never imagined summer to be such a chore! I imagined carefree laid back days...so much for dreams LOL
Your turn again. ;)
