I'm still here!

Hello long lost readers....

Well, since I've returned home from Georgia a week ago already (wow)....I've basically been tryin to get caught up on life from being gone for 6 days. All of life has consumed my every free minute and I feel like the days are flying by and there are still many things left on my list. Last weekend was our yearly Twins Club Garage Sale, and since I'm the treasurer, that brings along lots of behind the scenes work for the club, but it's all pretty fun cause I like that sort of stuff...so I'm just now getting to the end of my duties for the sale. I feel like just typing a huge ****SIGH****, and I don't really think you guys want to read a detailed list of events of my week, so I'll just highlight with a few pictures and stories of my last few days. =)

We had ONE great day for the swimming pool last week when I got home, but then it was SALE SALE SALE, 70's and RAIN RAIN RAIN. BOO. So here are the kiddies from last week livin the dream in the back yard. They've asked everyday if they can swim again. Think it's time for some lessons in a REAL pool!





Then there was a trip out to Sister Lakes Elementary school for Rachel's last day of teaching these 1st graders....so fun. We brought them suckers to celebrate. The day also included a private lesson on the smart board after the kids went out to recess. =) Preschool HERE WE COME!






Then yesterday a trip to the "purple park" with Grandpa. This is one of his favorites to take them to- tucked back into a nice neighborhood and never anyone there. =) Plus, it has this sweet backhoe thing so he can teach them his mad engineering skillz. So fun.







And last but not least, I got to do some hair again today on the beautiful Ashley. She was pretty pumped about it, and for good reason. She looks awesome! just in time for her to tear up DC with her 8th grade class....who are leaving in about 3 hours (2:30am) for a fast and furious weekend getaway! Can't wait to hear how it goes. She's a freshman in the fall already. And as tall as me. what is the world coming to. SIGH, what a great girl, she's one of my favorites. =)
