God's big Backyard!!! Yes, its VBS at church. It was a fun morning which will continue through the week. Me--I'm the game lady. How fun is that!!!

In other news, Payne lost another tooth friday night while staying with my parents. Richard and I had a double date with friends and had dinner and drinks in Port A then a round of late night Putt-Putt. That's like 3 teeth in a week. The weekend was pretty borning otherwise.

Gasp!!! A picture!!!! so today we went to the pool at 9:30 and met friends and played till 12:30 ish. Avery cried and cried when her little friend left. Then we came home, tired, grabbed lunch, then got picked up by Aunt Kathy and headed to the beach till 5ish. Avery was again sad and cried because Cousin Amber had to bring us home. Then got showered and such and Cousin Amber and her friend Brooke came over and babysat so Richard and I could go out for Chinese dinner. The kids are finally in bed! What a day. Tomorrow is a stay home day. Bet the kids don't get up till late.

Boy time flies. I can't believe its the middle of summer already. So today, no picture but I overheard a conversation payne had with his buddy, Nicholas, while we ate lunch. I had made lunch here at home--this was not an eat out day. Now the kids don't eat out much but this is what i heard.

Payne: Nick, what did you order to drink?

Nick: apple juice, I think that's what I got!

So my camera has been on a little vacation--resting from the 1200+ pictures I've taken in the last 45 days. I've been really avoiding the computer all together. I seem to be having more fun with the kids and playdates than wanting to be online. In addition to being so busy, it makes us tired so we are sleeping later and later. No harm in this, right? I'm so so thankful I don't work as i'm finding so many things to do with the kids and we are staying busy. VBS is coming up then seacamp and a short trip at Shamu's home is possibly in the works for inbetween since I have dr. appts coming up.

Today was Avery's first circus. She loved the elephants, seriously. I liked the tigers, they are such beautiful creatures and so well behaved! I did not lug my camera so I go no pictures.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

My new steam mop. I hope it works as well as they say. I'm tired of scrubbing floors on my hands and knees, really, to get them clean. I tried it in the bathroom last night and the floors were clean, so clean, and no chemical smell. I joked with a friend the other day that I no longer talk about discovery, pleadings, MSJs, demanding clients, gripe about bosses and the way things are done but can talk stains and cleaning!!!

This is Jasmine a/k/a Jazz Jazz. She is old and has lost weight lately. So I took her to the vet and after a whopping $277, we have no answer. She eats like crazy and only weighs over 4 lbs. Yall know me, I can't stand to see an animal suffer even though she is a PITA and is banned from being inise the house.
