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. 

To The Lake We Go...

Well today we are off to the lake, so I am writing this in real time jsyk, but I cannot post it until we get home. I forgot the USB cables for my cameras. Sometimes I amaze myself!

Today the boys and I had a few errands to run. We got those done all before noon, that was our goal. If it started storming again like yesterday being out in it was not something that I cared to experience. We pulled in the garage and the thunder started. I was proud of the perfect timing.

I started to work on Catherine's wedding album and DVD labels. Check out my photography journey blog for more on her wedding. It was beautiful. I cannot wait to deliver the products. I will touch base with her Monday. At least that is the plan. Hopefully it will work.

I also got some schoolwork done. In an attempt to relax a little more this weekend. While I am not done, at least progress has been made, which alone is a great feeling.

As soon as Brandon got off we loaded the truck and headed to the lake. It was a long trip because we had several stops to make, but it was pleasant. It lightening almost the whole trip. In fact it still is so I am off for now. Hopefully to bed soon. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
