Might as well just make a list. That would be easier than trying to write about each individual event. This might also give a better or clearer picture as to why I haven't had time to get on the computer to write for awhile. So these are the events of the last month or so. I am taking a deep breath here (you might want to as well)! I hope my memory will hold out for all of this, he he he!
- Girlfriend and children visited for 5 days.
- Chicken coop was built.
- Girlfriend left and chickens arrived.
- Father and step-mother arrived to visit and finish our unfinished basement.
- Went to top of Pikes Peak on the cog rail with family. Beautiful.
- Regular schedule with doctors appointments, volunteer work for Brianna, and gymnastics for the girls continued.
- Bought 8 thousand pounds of dirt for horses and gardens. I shoveled it with the kids until my elbow is in a sad state.
- Worked on flower beds with my step mother.
- Basement work continued all the while.
- About a million trips to Lowe's and Home Depot! Okay, maybe not a million, but you can imagine non the less.
- Drove to Phantom Canyon (THE SCARIEST DRIVE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!)"Nuff said about that!
- Hit the casino in Cripple Creek. Jud played $20 and won $300, I also won $20 on the penny slots.
- Took kids to see one of the worlds largest horses "Shrek". Didn't get any pics.
- Basement finally finished. It took 18 days I think it was.
- Father and step-mother left for KY. We had a great visit and hope that they did as well.
- The girls were in the 4th of July parade. Very neat event, the fire trucks were out and sprayed the crowd and the crowd all had water guns and sprayed right back. FUN!!!
- We painted the basement again.
- Miranda pulled out her front tooth, finally.
- House cleaning and organizing after a month of company.
- 4th of July cook out.
- Today we went to the Garden of the Gods park. Another very cool place to see. Hope to get some pics on here soon.
I will be posting more recipes and some new knitting projects with photos soon. Thought I would try to put some on here tonight, however I will be lucky to finish this post. I am exhausted and today has been a very long day.
Okay, I fibbed. I am trying to get some photos on here as I type. Boy oh boy is this computer slow tonight. We'll see if I make if for the upload.
Meanwhile I should tell you that even though the last month or so has been a little hectic it has also been a lot of fun. We had the great opportunity to visit with friends and family, both of which we had a good visit and made some wonderful memories. Also, we accomplished alot of goals that we had set. We have an almost completely finished basement, chickens that should be laying in about 2 months, and a garden that is coming along nicely.
We are doing great and having a great time doing it all. I hope that whatever it is that you may have going on in your lives that it is going well. I'd love to know how you are doing.
Off to bed now, I need my beauty sleep! Good night!
