Vacation

We just got home from our vacation home to Rochester, New York. It took 27 hours to drive but it wasn't too bad. The kids did great. I am really proud of them.

We were able to spend some time with family and friends during our short visit. Exhausted but it was fun!

The kids did great meeting everyone and let everyone hug and kiss them the whole time. Ok, maybe not Mikey, but he was pretty friendly ;0)

I really enjoyed being able to connect again with some old friends and their families. Really made me think about great friendships the Lord has blessed us with.

Cannot wait for them all to come visit us here at our home in Texas!

Summer.....Unscripted

With school over and the heat has turned on full force we have grown lazy. Our days start with a late wake up and roaming around in our PJ's until lunch. Way too much TV, trampoline jumping, and sprinkler skipping. We are out too late with friends and eating way too much ice cream! Sounds like fun but it is driving me crazy. Nothing gets done around the house and my kids are out of control. Well, maybe they are in control and it is me that is out of control.

So I have re-scheduled our summer and composed a "bucket list".

Sunday - Friendships/Fellowship
Monday - Rest Day: catch up on household duties
Tuesday - Gym Day
Wednesday - Outing Day
Thursday - Gym Day
Friday - Grocery Day
Saturday - Family Day

Summer Bucket List
1. Implement Discipline Plan
2. Learn Basic Spanish
3. Learn Basic Salsa Dance
4. Loose 15-20 more pounds
5. Implement Monthly Date Night
