Party is over

Sigh! Party is over. Pictures will follow later. I forgot the camera to take to the derby! Sorry. It was an AWESOME derby! 20 cars entered! Our's came in SECOND!!! It was sooooooooooooo awesome!!!! Firemen danced too!! hehehe!! It was raining earlier in the day, but no rain during the derby. Afterward we came back here and had the party. We bbqued, had a waterfight, used the pool, waterballoons, whatever anyone could find!!! We made slushees and had a really good time! Then we did fireworks.

Anyway, going to go stitch for awhile thank heavens! I also made a flag cake I will share!!!

Happy Fourth weekend everyone!!

DAYTONA TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO SMOKE AND OF COURSE MY BOY FLYIN RYAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Swimming ---

Well I am exhausted! Got up when DH left. Did the housework, dyed my hair. I had three kidlets when I started this morning. Britt went to summer school. They had a field trip today. She was supposed to be back around 3. Then Ellie and K came over for the day. I thought what the heck. K could come swimming with us. So then K from across the street came over. So hey. Then I have 5. Then I fed them lunch. K from across the street couldn't go swimming with us though. Maybe another time. So Lex went ahead and walked with E to the pool. I had to run and see if I could get an element for the BBQ and to the PUD for DH. Then we headed to the pool. Noisy as all heck :P Stayed there till 3. K's mom ended up picking her up there. They are coming tomorrow night! Brittany is going to H's tomorrow for the weekend. FIL will be here about 8. DH is picking up the element in The Dallas because they don't have one here and also picking up fireworks. Other than that we are about ready! We are going to decorate tomorrow, make the beans and cake and that is about IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOORAY!! Also, I have to pick up ice tomorrow. ----

Should be lots of fun! I will have to take pictures. Anyway, EVERY time we go to the pool, all these girls always want to play with Hunter the stud muffin. He hangs on the side of the pool and he is just a stud muffin. When he gets older I will have to beat them off with a stick. He comes over and says, "Mom the one is 7." ROFL. They are ALWAYS older. I think because the girls are older he knows how to identify with older girls better.

Anyway, my hair is all one color, not blonde a bit, grey, brown, just BROWN. Hopefully!

Anyway, have a great Fourth everyone!!! I will be on Sat to share pictures etc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stay safe!!!!! We are looking for bad bad storms tonight. All fire crews are on. They are still fighting fires from Sunday night. UGH! They still have the fire camps set up from then even. :( T's husband was out till 1 am last night fighting one.

Shopping

Ahh the joys of shopping. We have to drive 30 minutes to get any kind of a break on shopping, but that means more gas. Ugh. No breaks of any kind! At least I will be a kidlet short. Ellie is still at K's. I will pick her up when I get back. I have to get things for Friday. Tomorrow Jerry will be here!! Hunter is so excited stinky socks is coming he can hardly contain himself!
No posting for cross stitch stuff. I am doing Christmas stuff all month long, as part of my SSS Christmas in July fun! Going to work on SMO All Hearts Come Home for Cookies. Should be cute. Hopefully I can stitch tonight.
Tomorrow, I HAVE to clean. Then at 1 we will swim and come home at 3. Brittany has a field trip with summer school, she will be home by then. Stinky socks will be here around then too. Friday DH has to be to the derby by 8. We will go about 11, which gives me enough time to get the beans going, get everything else setup -- should be lots of fun!!!
I hope everyone has a great Wed!

Where does the mail go?

Where does my mail go? I have no clue?

When will spring break end?

All these questions, but I know there is no answer!!!

But the BIG question of the day is, will we move to OKLAHOMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We shall see when my favorite inlaws get here after they visit Oklahoma this weekend and next week!!!! I will live anywhere!!!

I got all orders out today that I could, and tomorrow EVERYTHING else will go that I can. That leaves about TWO!!!!!!!! HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!

I also got Eliza a surprise because someone dropped out on one of the exchanges and I felt bad. I sure hope everything is ok with Carolyn. It doesn't seem like her to just disappear, although I don't know much about her. She just seemed like a real go getter.

I dyed two colors today! A kiwi/yellow and a blueberry pie/blue raspberry. Going to have my board name them. I just love it. I think it is so much fun! I was in a creative mood.

Anyway I kind love reading blogs so it has been fun to have others read my blogs. I won't be doing any exchanges though. I don't do any kind of finishing LOL... :P

Thanks for reading if you got this far!!! Happy Wednesday!!! Happy Peanut Butter and Jelly Day!!!

Spring is here!!!

Spring is here I think! I hope so anyway! I am so glad. I can't wait! I have been getting lots of orders out and I am so glad for that. I haven't been able to stitch much. We have been working on our backyard lots. Working on getting a new garden up. My dad and stepmom sent us a breadmaker for our anniversary so we made cinnamon rolls today. It was a lot of fun!!! the kids loved it!!! Jeff worked on the pool area today. Pretty soon we will get the bricks to make a path to the wood shed so we won't have to go around his shed anymore for wood. Then he will put a door on it next. He is so handy. Then we will put outdoor carpeting on the patio, and put new grass. We got 11 trees in the mail on Friday, so we will plant those soon out front and make an island. Next weekend is Easter. I can't believe it!

Ellie's birthday is coming, and so is spring break! Also parent teacher conferences! Well I am going to go watch more of the race! Have a great Sunday!

New to blogging

Let's see how this works. I will have to see. I am interested in seeing my first post!! Next post maybe I will post one of my WIP's although I haven't stitched all week.

I will share my long weekend. Friday night we watched TV and relaxed. Ellie and Brittany went for sleepovers. Saturday we went to The Dalles all day. Today everyone did their own thing and I did orders ALL DAY.

Ok I hope this works!!!
