My weekend definitely had it's ups and it's downs. I feel much better since my last post and I appreciate all of your kind comments. Sunday afternoon, hubby and I took the kids to the pool we joined for the first time and we really had a nice family time.

Here is a picture of oldest right before she jumped off the high dive. Fearless.

On Monday morning there was a small local parade. The kids were a little disappointed that there was no candy throwing but it was still a lot of fun. Youngest and his buddy really seemed to enjoy the firetrucks.

Believe it or not, the weather stayed nice and we were able to have some neighbors over for a BBQ. It was great fun and everyone seemed to have a blast, even the kids.

Of course, now there is approximately 47 flies currently in my house. Is it wrong to hang fly tape from your chandelier?
