Wonderfulness.....Not A Word, I Know!

Life is GREAT!  Everything is super duper right now!  Lots to look forward to and happiness abounds!  I wish everyone could be as happy as our little family.  The business is spectacular, our house is looking quite lovely and growing on me daily, the kids are learning new things and growing like weeds, and it's summertime!!!  

The absolute BEST time of year!! 

We are taking a family trip to Canada and Niagra Falls in September for Sarah and Matt's wedding!!  We can't wait!!  I have been telling the boys about all the cool things we will see and do....plus we get to go with a bunch of friends and family...kinda like a mini reunion!! lol!  Yesterday  I got the  paperwork for all the passports and pictures and what not.  Taking the kids across the border is flippin' expensive! agh!  It will be worth it I'm sure. 

I went and signed the kids up for swimming lessons at the Hamilton Pool again.  $210 for 6 kids for two weeks.  Really, in the scheme of the things, it is a pretty good rate.  45 minute lessons every day, Monday through Friday.  After I signed them up, we stopped at the park in Hamilton and had a picnic and played for a bit.  

We do this every day after swimming lessons.  

I cleaned out the new car.  I ran out of Armor All wipes though so I figured I would finish it today.  

I potted more of my annuals in my pots.  Some of my flower pots got broken somehow.  that was annoying.  but, the ones I did get planted look great.  I have been clearing out all around the house and all the old flowerbeds that haven't been used in years.  

Jeremy and I are going to get some for landscaping stones and build some cool flower beds and add to our fire pit.  

All of us went up to Hair Razors to get haircuts.  Cedric got a mohawk, he looks pretty awesome.  Liam was proud of himself today because I let him ride his bike up to our store with a lunch for Jeremy.  Oh, and Asher learned to ride with no training wheels while we were in Florida!! I'm having a hard time keeping him off the road!  He gets so upset when I won't let him ride his bike or walk around town with his brothers.  I feel bad.  

He's just not ready yet, though.  

Also, I think the "girl" kitten we have that I named Sookie, is actually a BOY!!!  I think I see some stuff down there that shouldn't be there if it was a girl! haha!  So, we may have to change it's name to Eric Northman!!

I did 5 loads of laundry, folded, put away.  That is always fun.  Three loads of dishes.  Asher washed all the windows and cleaned the bathroom sink, toilet, and shower. The older boys cleaned their rooms, vacuumed, made their beds, picked up the living room and dining room, fed and watered the cat, and watched Eden so I could take a quick shower. Cullen sat on the couch and screamed at everyone. 

 I also made a chicken pot pie from scratch.  Whew! 

Then I decided that I needed to go shopping for Father's Day and swimming suits.  I texted the Kelley girls to see if anyone would like to go along with me as I hadn't had any girl time recently.  To my surprise, everyone could go....and with NO KIDS!!  WOWZERS!  So, the evening was spent spending time with the Kelley girls in Burlington.  We only got to hit two stores (Kohl's and Target) but, we ate at Carlos O'Kelley's and had a good time just hanging out.  I enjoy shopping like that!!  I got home late. 
I put the stuff I bought away and watched a show with Jeremy and then we went to sleep.  Good Day.

This morning I put one of thenew outfits I got Eden last night!! She loves it!!! Head to toe---new hat, new shirt, new shorts, and shoes!! She loves looking at her shoes and pointing her toes!  She's my little hippie chic!! Love her!!  Ahhh.
