summer...

Here are a few things we have been up to..... Cheer Camp-This is Riley's bag packed for camp, with her clothes laid out to put on in the morning...what you cannot see if her list of things that she needed to do in the morning before she left...brush hair, brush teeth...'cause you know you might forget to do those things...:)

This boy has been waiting 2 years to put his own helmet and pads on so that he can play tackle football. He was so excited to get his own gear that he put it on as soon as we got home from equipment day. I just hope he gets to have some playing time...there are 32 boys on the team- too many to allow for long periods of play time...

Help needed

I am having some friends over for dinner on Saturday...she has had us over many times and she is such a great cook, so I finally am reciprocating.

Any way- I am making this yummy baked pasta dish but I need to know what type of meat I should cook with it? My husband usually helps with ideas, but he is so busy at work the last thing he wants to do when he comes home is talk to me about food.

So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :)

Thanks!

Hillbilly Horseshoes

also known as Ladder golf....have you ever played? Me neither, until the 4th. We went out to our friends house for a 4th of July bbq/swim party. They always throw great parties- (Cami & Caroline picked up the great party gene from their Mom)- anyway, we had a hillbilly horseshoes tournament. My partner Chris and I won $30.00 each! :)

We had so much fun - thanks for having us over!

Jake & Riley have been at my mom's since Monday...and Tanner has been able to do whatever he wants for the last 3 days- he is one happy kid. Too bad he isn't like that when his brother & sister are home...I miss them!
