Top Ten Tuesday!

I figured this would be a good way for me to catch up on blogging that I have missed out on!
So here goes on some of the things I have wanted to blog about.
*It's gonna be a LONG one sorry!!

#10 If you read my blog much then you know Kelsey's grandma is staying with us for most of the summer. I was worried that she was going to be bored not to worry she has a busy life. She has made friends with our neighbor they sew, go to church activities, and lots of shopping! Lupita AKA: Tita has been a HUGE help every time I turn around the dishes are done, she has been doing almost all the laundry & watches the kiddos for us. You would think I could get more stuff done with all her help. What's my deal!
#9 I'm so happy that my summer flowers and plants are doing so well. I usually kill my plants within a few weeks but not this year. I'm so proud of myself-yeah for me!!!

#8 I'm so grateful that Mike loves to garden and is always working on getting some yummy veggies! Here is a picture of our some of our first vegetables for the summer. I can't wait to make Emily's great salsa with our tomatoes.

#7 Kennedi and Presley had so much fun the day playing with their baby dolls. It was so cute and really reminded me of when Paige, Bridget and I would play together! The other night Cody, Lupita and I went to Goodwill and I was so excited to find this cute baby doll for only 99 cents! I'm happy because Baby Alive AKA: Lexi will hopefully help me show the twins how this whole thing works.
I have kinda started to potty train the twins but they are not interested & I have to bribe them to even try. Wish me luck!
#6 Playing with cousins and more dress up!
Carter and Kennedi pretty much live in the dress up clothes.
The cousins awhile back all played with the kitchen stuff pretty much all day! I love that they all get along great and are always wanting to play with one another. Kelsey and Tatum went up north with Tatum grandparents for some fun. The girls were so excited for all the fun!!! On Friday we went swimming at Paige's and Jack came over too. It was so fun and the kids were so excited because Paige, Jack and I all got in and played with all the kiddos.



#5 Kelsey and Cody's really good friend got two horses. After church last week we stopped by to see them. Kelsey is a horse lover so she has been ecstatic about this. Mallory called her when they got the first so happy and then called her again when they got their second one for name ideas! I'm so grateful for all my kids good friends!!

#4 We have been playing some of family favorite games! The flour in the face and Kick the can.

Beau and Cody

#3 Do you remember this? Well this is what I have done to it. . .

What do you think? I think it's a little too Pepito but I figured in about 6 months it will need to be repainted because of all the kiddos!

#2 I have cleaned all my tile and grout in my kitchen, entry and powder room. I hate my tile because even when you mop your floors the grout gets so gross so I did my yearly scrub down. Man it sure feels great!

#1 Here are some of my favorite summer shows! One of my clients recommended Army Wives and I just watched it last night & I'm already hooked! My other favorites are The next Food Network Star and Design Star. Oh and I'm so excited because Burn Notice will be back on in July.

Sardines

Last night Cody was playing hide and go seek with Kennedi. After a little awhile he came and asked Mike and I if we could all play sardines before bed. If you have never played before it's a lot like hide and go seek but in the dark and when you find the one hiding you hide with them. The last one to find everyone is the next one to hide. We had so much fun playing! When it was my turn I stumped everyone. Kelsey finally found me and then laughed so loud everyone caught on! Mike was the last one to find all of us so he took this picture. We had a fun night!

And the winner is...

Crazymama!
She was the only one that got it right. I did go to Alaska with Mike but as Julie said I did not go fishing. I would drop Mike off for his day of fishing and I would go shopping!
You can look forward to the rest on my Memory Lane Mondays to come.

Memory Lane MOnday

Anyone remember the game where you tell three truths and a lie?
I got the idea from my friend onehm. I love this game but, I'm so bad because you can tell when I'm lying so this might help me. Leave me a comment and tell me which one you think is my lie! NO Cheating!!!
#1 Paige and I went to London with a group of woman from the salon we worked at. On that same trip Paige and I traveled to Paris just the two of us!

#2 I went Halibut fishing for the first time in Alaska 3 summers ago.

#3 Me and some of my friends sneaked into Golfland/Sunsplash after it had closed.

#4 I jumped over a HUGE snake while camping!

* Now the three truths will have to be my next three Memory Lane Mondays!

What Movie Was That?

1. "You were born a street rat, you'll die a street rat and only your fleas will mourn you."

2."Will you bring me my chapstick, my lips hurt real bad."

3."Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop to look around once in awhile you could miss it."

4. "Look eye, always look eye!"

5. "Now that's high quality H20."

6. "Red flower, blue thorns.
Red flower, blue thorns.
You know, this would be a whole lot easier if I wasn't color
blind."

7. "I can almost hear you getting fatter."

8. "It's my way or the Long Island Expressway."

9. "There's no crying in baseball!"

10. "I'd rather have 30 minutes of wonderful, than a lifetime of
nothing special."
I thought this might be fun! I will send a prize to the first person to get them all right, no cheating. Good luck!
