Ahh a fresh new week.

It is Monday. Daylight savings gave me this extra hour of sleep and a bright sunny morning to wake up to. The weekend is behind me now along with that UNGODLY busy week. My best friend is home from her camping trip, I have learned how to use, and LOVE my new phone... All feels right with the world!

 Over the weekend Destiny was gone. It was kind of quiet around here, but Promise made sure to make up for the crankiness and teenager (esq) that might be lacking in the household. Thank you Promise. Your just too kind.

 Rooster boy came and stayed the night. Not sure why but my son always has these strange thoughts he thinks are good ideas when rooster boy stays... Not saying its rooster boy, my son even admitted it was his own idea, I just think when boys get together, they lose all ability to ration out what is a good and what is a bad idea.

 So what was the bright idea this weekend? To "splatter paint" A bowling pin








. I guess I should be happy, that at least they did it in the driveway. Not the house?
Yes. This is my driveway.
I do try to look at the bright side of things you see. This could have been in my house, and it was not. And it was done with "washable" makers. I say "washable" because well, they don't really wash off as easy as something called washable would lead you to believe.... In fact, the driveway is still covered in handprints, and I suppose will be until it rains, a lot.

 So the boy got in trouble and daddy said the friend was going home. Clean up. Friend is leaving.... Then boy got upset, and was sad. Dadddy changed his mind and said friend could stay for ONE hour (which turned out to be like 3) I joked with daddy that the boy had him wrapped around his finger. HA!

 So then for dinner I thought I would take it easy. CROCK POT. My mom gave me this nifty separated one, 2 sides. I did chicken in one side, and apple cobbler in the other! Oh but I needed lemon for my recipe. I asked my dear dear husband if he would mind going to the store for me for just one item. His very smart, oh so sexy response? "Of course, I am wrapped around your finger too, I'd do anything for you... What do you need?"

 God-I love that man!

 So dinner turned out, Eh. I used some odd recipe for cobbler and I think next time I would just use my own recipe and just put it in the crock. For some reason I thought I needed to try a "crock pot" version. I don't think it was needed.

 Oh and what else happened this weekend? Well I am totally blessed with the greatest father in law ever, which I do think I have mentioned before. He came for a quick visit Sunday to look at our furnace, and guess what? HE FIXED IT! :) Ok so the gas line was never turned on, but EITHER WAY he fixed it, it works, we have heat!!!! YAY!!!!

 So that was my weekend, it was a pretty decent one. I am ready for a great week!

  1. well I have to say, I have yet to figure out what goes through kids heads and there is probably no explantion for why they do the things they do...I think they might be a little more complex than we give them credit for. But I will say this...the bowling pin is very pretty...

Time Flies

A year ago today my best friend gave birth to her second little boy. TWO years ago tomorrow my first granddaughter was born. Both seem like yesterday, but also so long ago. Two years in a row almost on the same day I got to watch the miracle of life happen... I have done it myself four times, but it never ceases to amaze me. To watch it is just amazing that our body does that. GROWS someone in side of us and then gets that someone OUT. Just amazing. Life is stressing me out right now however, I am trying to take this weekend to just tune out anything and everything that is getting to me, just have fun, go to birthday parties, eat cake and not worrry. Not worry about bills or calories or my steps (I even took my fit bit off) Just be me, just enjoy what there is in life to enjoy. My amazing friends, and my crazy family and the hot summer weather.

Tea Party Time

 Today was the school mother daughter tea party. I took miss Hannah Bear. She had a good time. A few of her friends were there. They got to get their nails painted, some make up on... There was a stack of dresses to try on and then model on a "runway" oh and of course some tea and snacks! (my favorite part of course)  The kids school had a scare today. It was locked down and police were called after a man was seen just wondering around the playground at recess time. Again it makes me SO glad they go to a small school where teachers know parents and know when someone who does not belong, is there. No one was hurt, and the man just walked off when a teacher asked him his reasons for being there... Scary anyway.  This week has been slower than the last, for that I am thankful. I am still busy don't get me wrong, but I am able to keep my head above water with just a minimal tread. Not having to do the backstroke all week is nice!  It is nearly "my time" S...
