Today is June 10th. So I thought I would write 10 things that are going on RIGHT NOW:
1. Gardening. Landscaping. Whatever you want to call it. It has be a learning process for us. For the past month or so we have been working the dirt.
2. Ella has been taking dance this year and it is her recital this weekend. She has been talking about it being 'in a few weeks' for months now. She loves the costume and is ready for the final dress rehearsal today!
3. My son is going on his first week long scout camp. He is so excited, but it is stressing me out just a little bit. I know it is going to be a great week for him.
4. While I am talking about the kids, I will say that Sydnee is safe. We had a little scare last week that made the beginning of our summer exciting with a trip to instacare, followed by the hospital. But she is doing great and ready to finish spring soccer season.
5. I want to make our 2011 Summer List today!
6. For the past two mornings I have been up way too early. Yesterday a storm woke us up just after 5 am; to lots of hail, wind, and rain. On Wednesday, the fire alarm in our room went off while Craig was getting ready for work. We are not sure why, but I am glad that it works!
7. The laundry is almost caught up from when I was out of town last week. Now if I could just get back the energy to make supper! We have been eating leftovers, sandwiches, cereal, etc. The kids love it, but I am ready {and my hubby too} for some real food!
8. Have you seen the movie Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken? We watched it on Sunday night, and my kids loved it. It was one of my favorites from my Premiere Video days.
9. I love the card game GOLF.
10. There are lots of books in my pile next to the bed right now. I am loving The Distant Hours and am excited to start The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie series.
Such a GREAT list Kim!!! LOVE it!!! Sounds like y'all are having a good summer so far!
ReplyDeleteBusy as usual...The yard is looking good. I am glad Syd, is OK...we are going to have to start going on lock down when you leave for the weekends:)
ReplyDeleteLoved to hear about your life right now! I had never heard of thos two books, but I'll look it up, I'm always looking for new books. Love, Débora
ReplyDeleteWe like the Golf card game too. Adam just survived his first scout camp as well--and so did I!
ReplyDeleteOMG Premiere Video!!!! Whenever I see the kiss from Some Kind of Wonderful I think of all of our fun times there. In addition to our "best kisses ever" movies, I also think back fondly on being able to eat mass quantities of buttery popcorn and Grandma's Pink Frosted sugar cookies with no real repercussions.
ReplyDeleteSounds like your summer is in full swing friend! How did your son like scout camp? My son dreads it. :) Are you going to Spark this year? Sadly, I won't be attending. Too much going on here at home. Did I understand you correctly -- are you teaching a class in Vegas? If so, when? I might drive out for it if I am in town! Vegas isn't that far away! I'm still sad I didn't get to see you at the scrapbook fest here in Southern Cali.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Loved both those books!!! The Distant Hours is awesome! Did you read The Forgotten Garden??
ReplyDeleteHave you read "The Hangman's Daughter"?
