Our Weekend in Pictures





These pictures pretty much sum up our weekend. We do alot of NOTHING and it was wonderful! We spent a whole lotta time outside. I even got to finish a book I had been reading! The kids made good use of the swing set and the four-wheelers and dirt bikes. Kaycee ended up with a huge scrape on her knee when she tumbled from the 4-wheeler she was standing up on while driving?!?!?! What kind of parent stands safely on her porch and encourages their children to do stunts on extremely dangerous machines? I did in fact come off the porch though and tried my own stunt....only to be told by my son that he could see my underwear showing out of my jeans the entire time! LOL We also think Hershey got stung by a bee at some point....I could not stop laughing at his swollen lip!!!!

Both C and K had practice today. K is really coming along in her softball skills....just gotta get her to pay attention to what is happening on the field and NOT what her mom may be talking about in the bleachers! LOL We also visited Mom and Dad this evening and I took them a home cooked meal, ugh I mean a really good KFC family meal. All in all it was a nice, slow, relaxing weekend! The kind we haven't had in a long while and I throughly enjoyed it!

Conner found a baby deer (I guess the correct word is fawn) yesterday at our rental house. The mom was no where in sight. Found out today that it died last night so it must have been sick or something,. It sure was cute though!

Conner's 10th Birthday

Conner is 10 years old! His birthday is actually May 30th, but with baseball, recital and softball I put off having a "party" until last weekend. He invited his two best friends over for a sleepover. We had pizza, cake and ice cream and a few presents. We gave him an Ipod and he is totally unresponsive to me now! He's ALWAYS got those ear phones in his ears! His two friends, Jake and Jared, spent the night and I think they stayed up until around 1am. But those three together were really very well behaved. I even got some pics of them that I can't wait to use in their senior slide show in high school!

Washington DC

Uncle Eric took Conner and Kaycee to DC today. They got to see the Washington Memorial, the Lincoln Memorial, the Reflecting Pool, the White House and visited the Air and Space Mueseum. Conner has always wanted to see the Lincoln Memorial.



PS there are 41 steps up to get to the Lincoln Memorial. C and K had a bet on that today! LOL

The end of a long day


so it's 10pm and I am finally winding down... it's been a long day.
Here's how it adds up:

1/2 hour dropping kids off at school (school bus comes WAY too early)
3 hours volunteering in Kaycee's school library (including 2 computer crashes)
1 1/2 hour lunch with good friend who shared some GREAT news!
4 hours at the office (Baylee was there for 2 so I really didn't get a lot done!)
1 1/2 hour dinner cooking, eating, cleaning up (fish sticks and Spaghetti O's should never take that long!)
1/2 hour driving to dance class and back
1 1/4 hour at the gym
1 hour supervising homework
1 hour baths, stories, prayers, kisses, hugs (put Baylee back in bed and do over again!)
1 1/2 hour laundry and straightening up
1 hour catching up on Bible study work

Wow, I've never really took the time to figure up how I spend my time each day.... wish there were more hours in my day, but.... All in all- a pretty good day, I'd say!
