Random

Just a few things that are on my mind on this Friday evening at 10:45.

Dustin is currently "prepping his meat" for the big smoke out tomorrow. The pit will be running ALL day. As in 7am to 11pm. SO FAR we will be doing 2 briskets, a pork shoulder, sausage, chicken and probably a pork loin. I REALLY wanted some turkey but apparently that's not a hot ticket item for grocery stores to carry in the middle of June. So, our house will smell like hell a BBQ pit for the next few days.

The kids haven't been to bed before 9:30 all summer. It's starting to catch up to them.

I've heard "I'm hungry" or some variation of that at least 2,619 times this summer so far. We are only 2 weeks in.

My friend Christine wrote a funny blog about our trip to Houston. Our meaning we were supposed to meet up at least 2 times and NEVER did. Typical. Yet, ok with us.

I've decided my favorite saying is and always will be "Bless her heart". You can basically say anything you want about a person and as long as you follow it up with that you're all good.

I have a zit. On my chin. I am 32. This seems cruel to me.

I also am a fair shade of fried. Got a bad sunburn yesterday. I'm basically a hot mess.

I watched a friends one-year-old daughter today. It was awesome. Not awesome enough for me to open the baby shop but still fun. Bubba even got into "babysitting" her. I thought he would completely ignore her.

It's now 10:50, not bad for 5 minutes.

G'night!

Welcome to Summer!

We are one week in and having a GREAT summer so far. School ended for the big kids last Friday and we kicked off summer with a pool party at our friend Elyse's house! Right after we left there we loaded up the car, took the furry friends to the boarder, and hit the road for the Woodlands! Of course we had to stop at Buccee's on the way and get some grub.

We spent the week with Jenni, Brian, and Davis and had such a great time hanging out with them. It was so neat to see the cousins playing together so well. Bryson just LOVES Davis and Davis so patient with him. They watched 800 movies, had dance parties, went swimming, visited the Natural Science museum and lots more. Oh, and we were able to watch Davis play 4 baseball games.....that was HOT but he played really well. His team made it to the championship game but lost. We also took the kids to an Astros game....the Astros lost (NOT shocking) but we had a great time.

Now that we are back home and unpacked (the worst part about going on a trip) we are going to get settled into our summer routine. I forsee lots of pool time, gym time, play-set time in our future.

The pictures are out of order and not great quality since they are from my phone but enjoy none-the-less.





I hope your summer is packed full with all the fun things in life! (And lots of vodka if not!)
