u-p-d....a-t-e

update update we want updates....u-p-d...a-t-e!

Yes I have slacked and one possible reason could be my theory that my home mysteriously moved to the surface of the sun and I am doing all I can to conserve energy and not spontaneously catch fire. WOW is it hot here. Another is I have just been crazy busy.

In the past 14 days, Duke and I had a college reunion weekend in Fredricksburg. Which was wonderful, relaxing and good times, but the packing of the kids for my parents house was nonsense. The were there 4 days and they took 3 fishing poles, blow up water slide with blower and water re-circulator, 3 bikes, 3 sleeping bags, and tent. So that was TONS of fun to pack , unpack then re-pack and unpack.
On Tuesday I returned my H2 smart buy, and am looking for a new car. One of those ahhh moments to feel that huge payment go away, and have a good grasp of what I want but now the problem of finding said vehicle.
On Wednesday I celebrated my 34th birthday, my kids made me a cake and wrote their names in it ...actually it was very yummy. I think I stretched it out long enough to get several waves of gifts, cash, artwork, pandora bracelet, furniture, lotions, and awesome cake from Nadlers THANK YOU ELENA AND KURT !( it was so good I did not want to share it....but I did).....I'll take it even if I do have to admit to another year.
Thursday was the hattie mae day to make the house presentable for company coming later.
Friday I worked an extra day at work for the fathers day lunch, and then packed all the kids in the car to go buy furniture and Purchased 2 chairs, play table and chairs, vases, and toys....at one of Dukes model home sales.
Saturday began with my cheer clinic for my daughters pee wee cheerleaders at the local high school with their cheerleaders. Actually very cute and lots of fun for the girls. Then ran home changed clothes and went to the end of season picnic and party for the pee wee league. Then ran home again showered and changed and had dinner on the riverwalk. It was wonderful and there was a breeze. Saturday night I had 6 house guests spend the night, one for multiple days, my cousin Jess...hope the kids didn't scare you too much;)
We did a fathers day lunch on Sunday for all the dads at my house...3... then Monday floated the river.
Tuesday we sold the 4 door jeep, and bought a 2 door jeep, and continued to look for a new car for me!

Hopefully the remainder of June will be less of a blur of activity and more time at the pool.
