What happens when my husband works late…

7 Comments

My husband has been working late this week and I find myself with two little boys that have exhausted their non-destructive play idea’s earlier in the day. I either need to find something else for them to do or risk my house getting torn apart!

I saw this post in my new favorite blog and realized I have face paint make up. I looked everywhere though and could not find mine, so I decided I could use my brown eyeliner instead. It is just sitting in the drawer going bad anyway…good thing my boys like makeup!

Too much heat

4 Comments

I got overheated on Friday! Ugh!!! I am usually pretty careful since I have gotten sick before from the heat but it still happened. I did not even realize that was what was wrong until Sunday.

I guess any place you live there is going to be some sort of downside. California has earthquakes, the coast has Tsunami’s, you can get snowed in for the winter in the North, ect…

In Oklahoma we do have pretty mild winters and do not have to deal with snow for very long since it always melts quickly. And yes, to you Okie’s a week is still quickly!

Anyway, today was my first day since I realized I had gotten overheated to spend time outside. It was so nice, I did not even mind the heat. I just enjoyed being out!

Here is a little sneak peek, the reason I was outside today! Josiahblanket

Fireworks, Birthdays, and concerts, oh my!

Our fourth of July celebrations were a little packed this year. Our oven gave out and our new one was delivered that morning. We ended up staying home from church to wait for the oven. My husbands birthday is the fourth and I might have had him install my oven on his birthday…I bought him a cheesecake! That makes it okay, right?

Since the fourth landed on a Sunday our churches celebration(Rockets Over Rhema) ended up that day also (it is always on Sunday so it is not always on the fourth). We stayed for the some of the concerts and walked around a little bit but left before the fireworks.

We left just in time to make it to our own towns Firework display, it was a little close…I am not always good with time management. But we made it, that is all that matters. The anxiety in finding a parking spot and hoping I did not spoil the boys chance to see fireworks just adds to the excitement of the day I think.
