Art Day

The little boys and I felt like getting creative yesterday.  (Translation: I felt like getting creative and insisted that they feel that way too.)

So we rummaged the garage, found some paint and some wood, and got to work.   We each had our own canvas.  Can you guess who did what?

I am pretty pleased.  I am not sure what will go where, but I think they will all get some wall time in the house.

Why We Are Mad at Texas

It keeps stealing all our friends!

But before our goodbyes we had some fun with our friends.  Some good, clean, messy fun.

Yep, matching trunks.  Complete coincidence.  Great moms/stylists/swimsuit-picker-outers think alike.

The little brothers preferred to be a little less messy.

And in the end, I went ahead and counted this as their bath for the day.  Double Bonus. 

Fun memories.  But we sure miss our friends.

Decorating, A Onesie, and Cleaning

In decorating news, Jagger has taken up to making his door a little more fashionable.  He really loves Shrek.

Lovely, no? 

In onesie news, Cash has outgrown this:

Kenzie, we need a new one, Stat! 

And in cleaning news, I got a new Dyson in the mail today!  I was so excited I cleaned the whole house from top to bottom… in my swimsuit.  It was awesome. 

Also, (and here is where I reveal how dorkified I am) I did a little consumer-reports test and compared the new yellow beauty to my two-year-old Bissel.  Uh yeah, I won’t show you a picture, but it was gross.  After I used the oldy in just one room, I went over it again with the Dyson, and I definitely picked up an extra handful’s worth of gray fuzz.  I feel happy. 

Anyway, for curious minds….We bought the thing refurbished off of Overstock.  It looks and acts completely new to me, and we saved a few Benjamins. 

Oh, and I got home from the pool about 8 hours ago.  I’m still in my swimsuit.  I’m gross like that.  But my floors are clean:)

Baptizing Cash?

It’s officially summer around here.  We’re staying up late, catching lightning bugs, sleeping in, and playing in the sun. 

And today Jagger asked Cash if he wanted to be baptized.

Cash’s response:  “Oh yeah, I LOVE getting baptized!
