Cousins

Today was another great day with company.  I have always loved to have company but now that we are in this house I really love it.
This morning started off with Brandon and Danny going to get the part for my van.  I really hope that this is all that is needed and that I will have a vehicle again. 
About 8:30 Dwight and Chris showed up with a bucket truck to help Brandon hang an extra antenea. He needed a 28 foot extension ladder and his got stolen several years ago so he asked to borrow one, and since they did not have one they brought the next best thing.  The bucket truck.  Looked like a lot of fun to me, Chris was going to take Brandon straight up but somehow Brandon convinced him not to.

Today Margie Rose, Logan and Makenzie came over.  The kids had a blast riding their bikes, building box forts, and yes of course we went swimming.  We swam for a while and then the lightening came so we left.  The kids made a parking lot just for them at the pool.  I love that they are enjoying it so much! 

Brandon worked on the van and we think that it is fixed, thank you so much baby for giving me my car back!  I was really tired of checking the water, pouring in more, waiting.  You are amazing.

Margie and mom worked on some more of her boxes.  Progress she is making, but there is a lot more to get done.  We have to get the boxes the heck out of here.  I have a serious bug phobia and I know that cardboard boxes tend to attract bugs.  That is another reason I have been busting my butt to get rid of all of ours. 

I just need some shelves and stuff and some ideas on how and where to put some of this stuff. 

A weekend At the Lake

When Friday begins by getting up to go to the lake you know it is going to be a great weekend. This is our last one for a few since we are headed to the beach in 15 days! My heart is at the beach and I cannot wait until we are there full time, my second favorite place is definitely the lake!

So we got up there, took the trailer so that we could load up the grills. We did this as soon as we got there. One it allowed us to get it done, unhitch the trailer and then enjoy the weekend. We also were able to jump in the lake to cool down, some of those things were heavy as all get out, but we managed.

Then we went to the store to get groceries for the weekend. Before we left we got my mom's place ready for Margie and the kids who came and spent the weekend with us. Mom was supposed to come, but she ended up sick. The boys were so excited when we got home from the store and they saw Margie's car. It was great!

Well, after dinner and a lot of playing it was time for bed! If all Fridays could be like this that would be amazing! Maybe one day. Of course owning a house would be wonderful first. And that is how it will work. I keep praying for some answers and the sooner that they arrive the happier I will be.

Anyway, I have fallen behind on my blogging, but I did not fall behind on my prayers! I hope that you all had an amazing Friday.
