Yesterday the hubby called me around ten and asked what I was up to. I simply said that I was trying not to melt. Our swamp cooler went on the fritz on Tuesday and the weather this week was supposed to range in the high nineties even in to a hundred. Phew, HOT! Hubby suggested that the boys and I…
I am so excited about my garden. It is neat to see it coming to life and bearing fruit. All the hard work of watering, weeding and such is beginning to pay off! Here I have cherry tomato, crook neck squash, zucchini, and spaghetti squash.

The chickens are now twelve weeks old, which means in about four to six weeks we should be getting our first eggs. …

Today we went over to a friend’s house and brothers wanted to ride their bikes there. I did not want to walk because I had two large bags to bring with us. I let brother’s ride their bikes over… they were so excited to do it. I will say though that middle brother needed a few little helps. He is…
The boys and I spent the evening at our friend’s house enjoying their little blow up pool in their back yard. The boys splashed and played, she and I sipped margaritas and chatted – the perfect way to spend a summer night.
