Legoland

Memorial Day weekend, we went to legoland with Justin's family! Course we picked the hottest day of the year to go, it was like 100 degrees out!! But, besides the heat, we had a nice time and the kids really enjoyed spending time with the family and being big enough to go on rides. Legoland is definitely, a once every couple years event, and it's geared towards young children as far as being able to go on rides and such..... Thank you Grammie and Papa for taking us there!

New project


I'm so excited about our new project that we've just started.....a diningroom table! My sister-in-law told me about this site where u can do "build it yourself" project for very reasonable prices! We've needed, and I've wanted a table that can seat more then just our family, so after going on the site I found the perfect table for us! And now I can't wait for it to be done, and us to be able to enjoy it..... You'll just have to keep checking to see the finished project :-)


Memorial Day

 Justin was off Memorial Day, so we enjoyed a quiet family day at home....mowing the lawn, enjoying fun on a slip-n-slide, bbque ribs and a few sparklers/fireworks before bed!

Our Garden


  Our garden is doing really well this year, we're so excited that the corn is actually growing ( every year we plant corn, and it's always pretty much a flop)!!!  Jonathan enjoyed getting his picture taken, of course.... To show how tall it is now!




 

Olive Garden.....


As a special Mother's Day treat Justin and the kids took me to the "Olive  Garden" for dinner, and boy was it delicious (it's been almost a year since we've eaten there)..... Chicken Alfredo is my favorite!!! 
It was a lot of fun, and the kids did very well....they were so excited about going out to eat, it was really cute( we hardly ever eat out, and for them its an even greater ever hardly happens). *** Justin made that face trying to stay out of the blog ***

Amanda's Bridal Shower


   Saturday we had the privilege of attending Amanda Smiths bridal shower. Kim, Becky and I went as well as Felicity, Savannah, Renae, Jedidiah and Nathan! The host was so thoughtful, no detail was forgotten. Everything was decorated beautifully, the fellowship was sweet and the girls loved it.....especially their butterfly wings and bags of goodies!

Daytona vacation....


    Last week we enjoyed two days, with Becky and Joe, at a timeshare they allowed us to join them at! The place was right on the beach with 4-5 heated pools, a lazy river and putt putt golf..... We mainly enjoyed the pool, which allowed the kids an opportunity to practice their swimming, and allowed some to overcome their fear of water! The two days did them well....we had a great time, but were very ready to come home by the second day! 
    Thank you Becky and Joe for inviting us to join you on your vacation......

On Christians Birth-day, Justin and I went grocery shopping and as a special treat Christian got to join us, which he thoroughly enjoyed!  He really loved all the one-on-one time..... While we were out; he got to talk to Grammie and Papa, get an ice cream at SAMs club, and have some fries on the way home!!!
