Well, it's been a week and one would think I should have a lot to say..well I don't think I do, so maybe I will just ramble a little while and things will come to me! This past weekend was rather nice.. my parents kept my three blessings for the evening Sunday night.... and my wonderful Father gave my husband and I money to go out to dinner with... we went to Cracker Barrel. I am sure you are thinking of all the places to go eat, why there? Well simply because we like it, and we don't get to go very often. Our Cracker Barrel is on the outside of town, and it is not a place we think of going to very often...so sometimes it is nice to go and with out any children tagging along in the gift shop area I am able to actually look at things. ha ha. We also went swimming Saturday at our campground...it was sooooooo COLD! After awhile it was still cold... and at the end of an hour the kids teeth were finally chattering. But did they want to get out? NO! We told them we could get ice cream...so we sat on the picnic bench eating ice cream...it was hot outside, just not in the pool! But the kids had a great time. I got my son's picture taken this week. He turned 8 this year....
He is growing up way too fast for me! Another 10 years, and then he'll be all grown up! Time goes by too fast some days!

Well this weekend is Fathers Day, and it should be a nice weekend. My Honeypie and my Daddi-o are taking the day Saturday and having a men's day. They are going to their men's bible study/breakfast in the morning, and it sounds like my Daddi-o picked going to eat lunch at a restaurant where there are go-carts. I am sure they will have a fun time! I am very blessed the my honey-pie shares a great relationship with my Dadddi-o. My honey-pie's own Father passed away over 8 years ago.

Well I also received some pictures of my sister.. she went to New Zealand recently. so I thought I would post one of her on here too. It looks like such a beautiful place!


Well I hope this weekend is a wonderful weekend. The weather report looks promising! No more rain for a few days! Have a great one!

Ta-ta-for-now!

Tired....but hey....

Ok, I am now ready for fall. I think that is the only time of year where I like the weather. Nothing too cold, nor to hot. No snow, no storms. Just nice weather. We have been inundated with rain, rain, and more rain, with some really nice storms. We were without power for a day and a half... I heard thru the grapevine (in our small town) that a truck hit a utility pole, and that took out several other poles...wiping out electricity for several communities. And there's nothing like the electric being out when it is nice and hot outside! I am being sarcastic. On a positive note, my parents took us all out to dinner last night. We went to a local restaurant named Perkins. (for those of you in the QC, it is like the Village Inn, those not in the QC, it is a high class Denny's). They have Tuesday night kids eat free, and they had a clown there making balloon things for the kids. The boys got swords made, and sissy got a pink hat with a heart on it.. she calls it a crown. The food was really good too.. I had a nice piece of salmon with pasta in a white sauce with dill and tomato.. my plate was shared with sissy and my honeypie and my Daddi-o tried it too. Anyway, that was the best part of the day yesterday, just spending time with my family... it is nice sometimes when the electricity goes out, you get to do fun things like that when it's least expected! But as for the rest of the night.... we ended up staying at my parents house, due to the severity of the storms..... we had tornado warnings until 2 am.. and they have a basement, so we packed up some stuff and went over there. There's nothing like being family in the dark. The kids are allowed to be a little more hyper, everyone stays up a little later.....and everyone sweats together! All in all I am thankful that no tornado's came thru our area.... and my family is all safe. I will just remain tired today. but hey, there is always tomorrow when I can sleep!

ta-ta-for now!
