Aug 15-31!

check out the night sky!  minus the uglt tralier. haha 
chris has been working way at installing the pipes/plumbing for the addition at the cabin
the kids and i went out to visit him.  i havent been able to use the cabin much this summer with the company/family and being in hali.  but i truly enjoy being out there 
meeky and ellie
we came back to the house, ellie had some play dates booked and i spent time with joey.  ive wanted to replant my plants, now that i can keep most of them alive!  i planted this cactus and came back to this....
joey added jewels, beads and stickers! it is pretty! ha
while ellie was away i took joey on a one on one to goji's.  
she enjoyed it! and i was surprised by how much fruit they chose over the chocolate and candy!

and i should warn everyone. now that i have a puppy/baby this blog will be full of her pics! 
my baby!
i sit on the floor in the evenings when the kids are in bed and chris is gone and cuddle up with meeky.  i love her so much!  
we had a BIG moment in our house 2 wks ago.  nate passed his scooter test, and had a job interview at mcdonalds!  while he was being interviewed, i had a coffee and chilled with the girls 




so what was the outcome?  he just turned 14, they dont tend to hire that young, they like their employees to be closer to 15 when they hire

but

they hired him!  he starts in sept when he comes back from his vacation.

how did that happen?  he's starting high school, is taking his scooter test and has a JOB?  what? time! slow down!  

but no worries about me!  i have this lady to hang with. haha  meeky! 
i went to grab a late night snack. i wanted ice cream. i found this!  who ate the ice cream, and left me this pity amount WITH the spoon?!?!?!  
i love them. 
oh yea, it was my birthday 2 wks ago. i turned 26! 

it was a great day! i planned it out perfectly! ha 

the kids woke me up at a respectful hour, i hid under my sheets 


this guy showed up. ha 
with coffee and pancakes. 
after a shower and more coffee i opened my gifts
this little one!
my oldest made me this card. with my high school nickname. that i HATE!
chris got me this, the girls bought me art supplies and then i went out for the day.alone. it was divine!
happy 26th bday! 
i had lunch at the park, alone. it was SO nice! then i came home to cake. that no one liked other than joey and i so we ate it ourselves!  
chirs totally enjoying every second of MY day. hahaha
i bought myself a bday outfit!
and this
it was a GREAT b-day!

hali pt 1!

i asked joey and ellie to come in so they could change their clothes and wash their feet. joey went missing. i found her like this

in my tub. i asked her why she was taking a bath!  i didnt ask her to! she said "im not taking a bath, im just chilling in the tub"

i chose to laugh it off. even though it was making us late...she got a bath and everything was good!

i went to Hali with the girls, nate was already there. chris was starting vacation and was spending it at the cabin getting ready for the addition.  meeka came with us too 

she wasy sleeping the closest she could get to me!
in the middle between the seats. i truly enjoyed reaching down to pet her during the LONG drive.  there was so much construction and delays but we got there in time for supper! 
charlie did joeys hair 


nate decided to "shoot missals over Afghanistan (inset eye roll)   
then the BIG day came!  

our sister wkend!  we went to "the digby pines" in digby. we've always heard about this place but never went.  

a HUGE THANK YOU to mom and dad, and shawn for watching the kids and my dog for 2 nights!  it was SOOOOO nice to get away!

so many flowers all over the place!
the resort is up on a hill over looking the harbor. a cute finishing town 
i was in love with the condition and the look of the inside. many pics to follow 


my sis, in front of the letter box. hiding her mask behind her back 
my job was to find a place to eat fri night while my sis was at her massage. i found 2 places. we decided to drive out to the first pick. and it was WORTH it.  i got my fav meal!  fresh, literally off the boat ATLANTIC scallops! 
my sis? she had pasta. haha 
bacon wrapped scallops! so good. even better than the keg!  
we had booked the pool fri night for a late night swim but with going a bit further away for dinner, then finding a frenchy's....where I!!!! found a kate spade bag and "allowed" my sister to have it...bawahhh ...we just took pics outside the pool but were informed by the ppl who were using the pool that it was super warm... we went back to our kidless room and ENJOYED every minute of it!
