Busy busy summer time

I love summer. I think even more than I did as a kid! I love that all my kids are home all day we don't have to worry about school, home work, schedules, sports. We play at the park every day, go to free movies, play in the water and outside, pick fruit and can it, canning lots of things, play with friends, visit family, camping. Sumer is so fun! Really the very best part is having my kids with me! I love watching them play and be kids I love how Donovan loves to read to me and Logan is always asking questions, I get to watch Thea's imagination and her art come to life, and Anna playing with and bossing her siblings around. We only have a month left of summer I feel the need to make the most of everyday. Now I just need to learn to love the school year too.

Summer

My little summer girls! Today is supposed to be 106 ugh way to hot for me! But the kids are loving playing in a little pool and laying out in the sun!

Happy 4th of July

This 4th of July has been pretty laid back....we slept in this morning, missing the parade but know one minded :) we played out side and BBQed with Corey's business partner and his family. Corey smoked some ribs for 5 hours sooooo good!! We played at the park and are sitting waiting for a fire work show to start. I love having a day with my family. And I LOVE that Logan remembered why we celebrate independents day. We talked some nor with the kids and learned more about why we are so lucky to live her in the USA . I feel so blessed today by all we have , the land we live in, and most of all my amazing husband and my crazy sweet kids! I hope everyone else is counting their blessing and loving this wonderful holiday!!!!
