Well, another month of summer as flown by. Atleast, it is the month that is usually thought of as summer. It has been rainy and chilly! We haven't gone swimming yet this year! What is up with that?
School let out the middle of June, so now we have 3 munchkins at home all the time! It is nice, though, that the girls help to take care of Shane. We now have a little kitten named Adventures, Addy, for short. She is keeping us all entertained with her antics! I forgot what it was like to have a baby animal around! Speaking of animals... our pigs are huge! They could be butchered now! leigh sure knows how to grow them!
The kiddoes went and spent a week at my parents. Leigh and I thought we would enjoy a week alone..but we both worked and hardly saw each other! He worked day shift, I worked nights...you do the math! But it was nice that the house didn't get trashed while we were working so hard! ha. ha. Leigh is remarking about how messy it gets, now that they are home again!
We went to my parents for the 4th of July. We got to see my brother Todd in a bike race again! He is so inspiring. I need to train! It seems like my days go by too fast, and I realize I haven't done anything about that! We watched the parade in the town that I went to school in....nothing has changed. Everyone is still drunk and walking the streets like they are the most important people in the world. It made me appreciate where I live now! :D
We are in the process of making some big decisions about our housing situation. At some point in the near future we are going to be building a new house. Just got to get everything lined up! What a process! It overwhelms me if I think about it for too long at a time.
I am looking forward to a milestone birthday coming up! finally, I will be 30 years old! It seems like it is about time! Married 12 years, 3 kids,a minivan, a house, a career... I SHOULD be 30 already!! I have felt this old for a couple of years! :d people ask if I feel old. MY age doesn't make me feel old. My oldest daughter's age makes me feel old. If she has kids when I did... I'll be a gramma in 9 years! EEEK! THAT makes me feel old. Or seeing these kids that should be still riding in strollers, but are now buying their first cars and going to college. THAT makes me feel old.
I guess that is enough of an update for now... I'll post more info about our house, as I know it!
