Day 56

Saturday, July 21st

I thought it would be a fabulous Idea to get some little things together for a time capsule...

I want to bury it while I have all my babies and Sean here, an then dig it up in 10 years...

So far we have air soft pellets, Nerf glasses, a doll chair, a written story and football key chain.

I still need a picture printed of the 5 of them... I can't wait until 2022, when we are looking back at these tiny things that meant so much when my babies were still babies.

Day 55

Friday, July 20th

Today was so much fun!

We watched the kids ride scooters out front, and had pillow case races...

Eric, the kids, and I went to the Park for a picnic. We ate Peanut Butter Sandwiches, Pringles, and Capri Suns.

In the summer, Wilson Park has Dive-In Movies at the city pool.

We waited until right before the sun went down and swam. The movie they played on the projector was "Up".

Day 54

I love the new shift  I am on at work now 9am-3:30pm. I have all evening with my family.

Today we took the kids to get snow cones at Shave the Plant.

 Afterwards, we went to My favorite Park, that is fully shaded and played for about an hour!

Day 53


Wednesday July 18th


Marnay, one of my sitters, Brought us a cake today that she made- NO BOX CAKE- this was the real deal. 


It was so delicious, I couldn't stop eating it!! 


Marnay is also planning mine and Eric's entire wedding ceremony. We didn't have one back in 2010 when we were legally married. I have been looking forward to it!


I really wanna spill some details, but I wont! It will be a surprise! Just know, with Marnay handling things, it going to be fabulous! 


The kids watched Mr Popper's Penguins. Loved it! =)

Day 52

Tuesday July 17th


Some days are just simply -Chill- Days. Eric took all the kids and jogged around the block while they rode their scooters. I caught up on some laundry, and relaxed.


Its always nice when Daddy does something with the kids and gives mommy some "Me Time" 


I am pretty spoiled to say the least, I'm used to breakfast in bed, and a delicious dinner every night... 


Thanks, Eric. We love you!

Day 51

Monday, July 16th


So, Since Santa got all the kids a scooter for Christmas- we like to go to the bike trail, here in Fayetteville. 


It is beautiful, and it wraps around the entire city, there are ponds and creeks, beautiful landscaping, just a breath of fresh air, and it wears the kids out. lol.


After our walk, we usually go down to the creek to "see" the water. However, being with out rain for a few months, the creek is completely dried up. Nevertheless, the kids loved it- and were fascinated to see what it looks like under the water! 


We had a great time, and a good workout!

Day 50


Monday, July 16th


You remember those days when you could go outside and play for hours, and didn't even want to come in when dinner was ready, right? 
Just isn't the same nowadays...


I know, we used to go down to the creek all day until it started getting dark outside. Or, Ride our bikes for hours without checking in... 


Well, I, just today, let my babies all play in the front yard... I know!! I'm livin' on the edge...


Sometimes I just find it hard to let go. I know they are "big kids" now. I know they can take their own crust off of their sandwiches, make their own drinks, sleep with out night lights... but, I have the right to want to hold on....


Now we are off to the walking trail to let the kids ride some more!
