24th of July

We had a pretty low key 24th this year. Susan had her gall bladder out unexpectedly and was heart broken to miss the fun but the grandkid were so cute and did everything gma had invisioned for them. Then Parx ended up with strep throat. So we did the lawn mower parade the neighbor hood BBQ and called it a night.

The Naked truth.

We have a nudest in this family. He would be naked all the time if we let him.

Swim's naked.

Drive's naked.

Play's/ Slides naked.

And of course mows the lawn naked, is there really any
other way!?!? Only if you have as cute a bum as him.

There is always, always, always something to be thankful for.

I just finished reading a book that I couldn't have read at a better time. I really have a very blessed life and not many trials or major ones at that. But I had just been feeling a little blue about material things. A house, another vehicle, new clothes, things that really aren't important but still nice to have and this book just put me in my place. 
I need to have things put in perspective once in awhile because I mean I am human and cant help to want things! But it cant and wont every go with me so even though I will always "want" things and need things I need to remember whats really important and to always be thankful for the real blessings in my life.

A few quotes I found fitting and funny...
-Money cant buy love but it can buy stuff and I love stuff.
-If you're feeling blue- try painting yourself a different color.

7-11

I love 7-11, Why? Free Slurpee's!! To bad it's only once a year.

4th of July!

The 4th was so much fun with Parx this year. He loved all the parties and parades, we even let him stay out late to watch the fireworks. We did a lot of fun things and spent a lot of time with the family. We are so blessed to live where we do and have the freedom that we do. We are so grateful for those who sacrifice so we can do what we choose to.

Then that weekend Sid and Michelle rented a blow up water slide had a BBQ and bought some awesome fireworks (that I didnt get to see becasue they scared Parx being that close). It was such a blast. Im so glad they were nice enough to do that and invite all of us.

Story of My Life

Things have seemed a little out of place around here lately?!?!

But because it is normal to a one year old I find "surprises" all over  the place...
