New strawberries are growing and I am hoping the deer stay sway!
I spent an hour and half swinging in my swing the other day! I finally did it! It was nice weather outside and I had to lay down (for girly stomach pains)...so no better place than outside in the warmth. I talked to my sister-in-law on the phone...it was quite relaxing!
I planted more flowers outside. They look really nice. My flowers are doing really well. I will take a picture and post it later!
I did a 5K on Saturday. Mainly walked. I could have ran more but my friend, Julie and I decided we would do it walking. It wasn't on pavement...so I would rather walk fast. I have been starting to run alittle bit. I like to Run for one Ipod song and then walk one Ipod song. I run out of breath too easily. Next time I will run more. On a postive note...next time I am sure I can beat my walking time!!!!
My kids are quite the swimmers! I am so proud of them. We have gone to the swimming pool twice now and also our friends house that has a little kids 3 ft round pool. Brooklyn loves the water and now can swim enough to get around without help! Yeah. She loves to jump off the diving board at the pool! She even was trying to touch the bottom of the pool at 9 ft...didn't quite make it yet but maybe next time! She loves the water! Easton is my scared one. The first time we went to the pool he just held on me unless it was 2 ft from the side and mainly he just glidded into the side. But after visiting our friends pool...he now swims really well and even jumped off the diving board...well he did a great belly flop! But he loved it! Both my kids swim under water and just come up for air. I thought it would be easier to swim with their heads out of the water..but I guess not! They both are doing amazing! I will be taking them to the pool often...I want them to be really good swimmers for our lake powell trip!
We saw the movie UP on saturday. It was cute! The kids enjoyed it. I enjoyed it but don't think I would buy it.
Off to Erics work to deliver Birthday Cake! ICE CREAM CAKE!!!! Yummy!!!! Eric is 31 today! Happy Birthday! The kids made him a birthday poster and put notes in balloons for him. Eric wants to buy his own birthday present...so the kids gave him some candy!
That pretty much wraps up our family! Sorry I have no pictures...next time!
your flowers do look BEAUTIFUL! i smile every time i drive by -- thanks for making the neighborhood look good. goodness knows my yard is not helping. hehehe. i am almost done with the weeds and got the first batch of flowers from my dad. we'll see how long it takes before i plant them. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Eric! Hope you guys have a fun day! Let us know if you would like me to watch the kids for a while so you guys can get some alone time. =)
ReplyDeleteI have a cat eating my plants, so my mom told me today to get a water bottle and put a little bit of dish soap in it and water and spray the plants, its not enough to hurt the plant or animal but it tastes bad so they hopefully don't like it! Worth a try! I loved the movie up, I thought it was really cute, not my fav, but still really cute! Is Eric coming with you to lake powell?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the cake at work! It was so good and a nice break. And Easton was great entertainment.
ReplyDeleteI am impressed you are already working on your yard. I am still too focused on the house!! The yard...maybe next year!
