Birthday Celebration Grammie Style!


On Saturday July 18th Lexi turned 2!! That's right Ladies and Gentlemen we officially have our hands full. The birthday celebration started on Saturday early in the morning. Birthday gifts were exchanged for a smile or two and a big TADA! This little girl is super cute and full of energy. We did have to share her with the other grand parents but hey we got to celebrate first and last. We ended the weekend with a BOOM......Swimming in the pool, birthday dinner and of course some cake! All in all it was great and what a way to end the day! Who says 2 has to be terrible?!

Date Night!

The night started just like a typical friday evening. Pizza night of course...........but it wasn't "MY" pizza. It has been a little too hot to heat up the kitchen for my pizza these last few weeks. Nana came and picked the kids and pizza up and took them off to her house for the night. The kids had been looking forward to an evening with Nana all week long. Papa has been gone to Texas all week with work and got home just in time last night to go and get Ice cream with them. An experience that Nana said "she wouldn't have been able to handle alone"!

Mark and I went to "Annie Get Your Gun" at the Opera House in Junction City. It was such a great show! Mark and I don't usually have date night but I think that we might just have to keep this up! I love my children but this summer has been a tough one on me. I have been a bit on the grumpy side......to say the least. It is really bad when your husband and kids start blessing YOU to not be so grumpy! Maybe it is the fact that I will only have Karrie at home this year. Tammara is going to Kindergarten..........I thought I was fine with it. I guess time will tell.

We came home last night to an empty house.....VERY ODD. We also needed ice cream last night and bought everything we would need for a sundae. YUMMY! It was just so weird not having the kids around it was really hard to settle down and get to sleep. I did enjoy the sleeping in part this morning because my kids didn't recieve the memo that on saturday we sleep in, so they are always up around 7 no matter what time they go to bed. I am lucky that I don't have to worry about an empty nest any time soon!
