Having Fun at the Pool

JJ was being a really nice boy and sharing his ever so sacred bag of Cheetos with his buddy, Nate.
Maddie was gobbling up her goldfish while being patient with the other kids.

Maddie didn't want anything to do with the pool so she just sat and watched the other kids. The water was a bit chilly from the rain we had the other night so I can't say I don't blame her.

Music Help!!!!

Apparently having kids has left me out of the "what's hip" in the music world. I don't have a clue and the stuff I have been finding I don't like! I am looking for tunes for my ipod to go to the Y. Any suggestions????

The Bubble Man

The Bubble Man has arrived! The base library has been doing a reading club all summer as do many libraries I am sure. Every Friday they have some new entertainment. And today it was this magical man. Well, he didn't actually keep the attention of most of the under 3's. He did a lot, and I mean a lot, of explaining of bubbles and why they are a sphere and why they pop, etc. JJ was the least bit interested. I thought it would be more of a room full of bubbles for an hour. But anyway, the kids had some fun and we weren't in the house.

Once the camera has been turned sideways, I have no clue how to put the video upright. Sorry!

We are boring, yes I know....

We haven't been up to much lately. Just waiting for John to get home. We've been to the park and to the water fountains. Anything to stay cool and somewhat busy...

I Am Soooo In Love With My Flowers!!!!!

Flower Update

My lily's finally opened up along with my dahlia's!

My New Bag and JJ's PJ's

I made these a while ago, but just forgot to post them. This is my new bag I have been carrying around and these are the pj's I made JJ. The material was picked out by him last year so I can't take credit for it's hideousness.

And THIS is why I love base housing...

My oven is broken and *poof* they magically bring me a new one! So far in the past 8 months of living here I have recieved a new garbage disposal, dishwasher and now the oven! I am so glad I don't own this house :)

She Had to Leave :(

But we had a wonderful time! The kids just couldn't get enough of her!

She Has Arrived!

The maid aka my mom! She has been here less than 24 hours and has finished all the laundry, swept, mopped, vacuumed, made a pot of vegetable beef soup, made dinner and breakfast, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned 2.5 baths and is finally in the shower cleansing herself! And no you can't have her! :) Thanks mom, I love you!

Play Time

Pool, bubbles, snacks. What more could a kid want?

What is Wrong With This Picture?

This is how the bowl was returned to me after snack time was over.

My Flowder's - As JJ would tell you...

These are my hollyhocks one week ago today: And here they are as of tonight!
