The Birthday Girl


Wow!! It's been awhile since I have posted. It's been kind of busy around here the last couple of weeks.



My baby graduated preschool...a happy, sad, day...for me. Colton finished first grade and is officially out for the summer. And my baby turned five...even sadder.



So the last week of school was a lot of running and then planning a birthday party and then just being too lazy to do anything because of the weather.



It is officially summer here in the Blue Ridge Mountains of VA. Usually our summers are very mild. They may get around the upper 80s around the end of July and August. Well we are at the beginning of June and it has already been around the mid to upper 90s for almost a whole week. I don't know what's worse cold weather in June or scorching hot weather.



I know I should not complain. We can cope with heat, we have 2 window air conditioners that keep our small home nice and cool and we have a pool in the back yard. Our pool is just one of those small blue inflatable kind, its 3' deep and 13 round. Not very big but perfect for the kids. Let me tell you my children have thoroughly enjoyed it this past week (and me and hubby have too). It needs more water because they have about splashed it all out. So we should not complain and just remember we are lucky to have to deal with heat instead of the floods they are dealing with in the midwest.



Today was cooler than the last few and its supposed to be in the 80s for the rest of the week. To me that is perfect weather. Well maybe upper 70s. But you can't be too picky.



So I almost forgot yesterday was my mom's birthday.



Happy Birthday Mom and Happy Birthday Emma. I Love you both very much and am so thankful for having you in my life.
