Next week is my girls trip. Me, my mother in law, granny and Addison are going on our annual yard sale trip. The 68 & 80 yard sale stretches 400 miles all the way across Ky. We drive up to the starting point on Wednesday and get a hotel. Thursday morning we get up bright and early and hit the road. Thursday night we get another hotel room and get up Friday and yard sale on home. This will be the first year Addison is going. I'm excited to make it a yearly bonding trip! When I get back we are going on our first camping trip of the year! I'm so stoked. We love camping and the kids and I can't wait to get to a pool! We will prolly go to Dale Hallow Lake. They have a wonderful camp ground and even nicer pool. So God willing this next attempted trip won't be so dramatic! David is off tomorrow, then works the next 4 days. Boo to that. But then he is off a nice long stretch of days. I suppose I should get back to the laundry.  

Till next time,

McDonalds. The Happiest Place to Be!

 

Way back when....

 

Whew. I've actually gotten quite a lot accomplished today. This house was a mess. Not a bad mess, just a mess. I got it all cleaned up. Got my load of laundry for the day in the washer. I love having it caught up. I need to wash linens tomorrow.

Our big date weekend is almost here. I'm excited. The kids are staying with Grandma and Grandpa the WHOLE weekend. So we will have Friday night, all day Saturday and all night Saturday ALONE. We haven't had any alone time in a long time. I'm so so so excited! We are going on that canoe trip Saturday. It's going to be so much fun. I love my babies but I also love some alone time with my hubby. 

Here's a picture of the twins from a long time ago. They where around 2 1/2 here. I came across it and just had to share it.

They use to push each other in that shopping cart. They where so much fun to watch. I'd love to have them that small again.

Addison can officially ride her bike. She wanted the training wheels taken off a while ago. She can surf right up and down the drive way now.

Here's a picture of Nicholas from a long time ago also. I love love this picture and can remember this exact moment like it was yesterday. We had taken him to the Louisville Zoo and when we walked in to see this he kept pointing and saying "kitty kitty". It was too cute.

 

An interesting little fact. Exactly 2 years after this picture was taken I was giving birth to twins! Look at all that hair.  Nick had the prettiest blonde curls!

Till next time,

Bridget

Feel good Friday

When I was a child, Friday was my favorite day. I can't describe the feeling I had as I ran out of the school and jumped on the bus, knowing I didn't have to be back for 2 days. Even though we home school, I still get that same feeling of pure excitement for my kids when Friday arrives. Seeing how we don't school on Friday (Mon-Thurs yr round), you would think I'd getting this feeling on Thursday afternoon. Must just be programmed into me wee little brain.

I'm still doing laundry. To be honest I don't even know now how many loads I'm at. I have about 7 loads left. Pure guess. Let's see what else. We woke up early early this morning to a thunder storm. It woke Addison up who was in her bed screaming bloody murder. So I brought her to the couch and she settled right back down. David woke up and checked the weather sites then woke me back up to fill me in. I was knocked out on Ambien. I didn't really care, but I did mumble thanks as I rolled over and went back to my happy place. Since it was pouring down rain this morning that most likely knocks out going to the park. The merry go round will be flooded and my kids will "accidentally" fall in it over and over and over. Not that it's a big deal, but it gripes my ass for them to be covered in muddy water. I try to chill and not worry about petty crap like that. I don't always succeed.

The pools will be open soon and the camping can begin. We LOVE to camp. When we do we live at the pool. It's the only thing we do other than camp fires, smores, grilling and such. Every year we anxiously await our first trip to start the summer off. Camping is a ton of work also. We don't mind at all. We love it that much. But before the fun can begin the work must be done. I must go reboot laundry.

Have a VERY blessed and wonderful weekend.

Till next time,

Bridget

Such a good Daddy!

While I cooked supper Monday night this is what was happening all around me :) It doesn't get any better than this!
