last week!

we had a heat wave last week, it was 30+ every day!  i LOVE it.  i went to get groceries and it was 30 at 11!  love it!

we filled the pool last week and the boys went in!  yikes! too cold for me!!!!

then the girls joined them!

way too cold for me!  now that the temps have dropped to 12-14ish i have little hope of the pool being warm enough to swim in by the weekend!

fri i went back to the cabin with the kids.  i told them that we will stay at the house for a week after one last weekend. i had a great time. i read, watched my shows and relaxed.  sunday we had friends over for supper and it was so nice to just sit and catch up.  i loving having friends over i dont feel that im entertaining.  we left on monday to come back to the house. the kids spent the rest of the day outside playing

joey found a "diamond" and wanted to give it to me.  she asked if i would marry her. ha

joey doing what she does best. painting!

ellie doing what she loves best! reading!

nate doing what he loves best! eating burgers! ha

this is how you can find ellie...and joey following her

i went to the thrift store last week and i found this devotional (new) for 2.25.  it was EXACTLY what i needed and was looking for my devotion time. i LOVE it.  its seriously what i need. a total god find!

i do my quiet time in the tent. the kids are not allowed to talk. ha and after we chat and snuggle

always my baby you'll be!

the best way to start the day. oh how the yrs fly by!

joey joined us

my 2 beauties before we left

so ellie got stung by a wasp.  earlier in the day nate started the bbq and found a wasp inside, so he took it out. the wings were burnt off from the fire.  4 hrs later ellie stepped on it and got stung.  it was a group effort to make her well.  the 2 boys took care of killing the wasp. ha

joey is always finding flowers and bringing them to me. she picked these at the cabin and carried them home with her

and we are at the house for a week or so. or until the kids all start fighting and drama happens then im packing up and heading back to the cabin.  the kids have been warned!  i hope to start tackling my house to do list...theres rain in the forecast, so i might as well clean then!

until next time! ellie says "thanks for reading!"
