Grab bag catch up!


*I don't know about all of you, but this summer has really gone fast!! Is it my age that makes it seem to go by sooo fast? Or, is it the unusual amount of RAINY days? It is late July and we are on our third day of rain!! It has been and very wet summer! I can't count the number of days we have had to stay indoors because of it raining!


*My kids start school in exactly 15 days!! I personally think it is way to early! It always gets HOT that week. They would rather be at the pool, not school!


*This year, both girls will be in all day! So it will be just me and the boyz! I am contemplating whether or not to uput Ashy in preschool! He is enrolled, but I would like to keep him home. It is is last year to be at home! Then he goes to all day K !!


*Me and the kidos will be packing up today to take a trip down to Oklahoma! The summer has gone so fast that we have not had the time to go visit a few days with my mother, sister and her kidos! We usually go every year for about 3 days! The kids play hard from morning til late at night! Me, my mom and sis all love to thrift!! I am always excited to see what the get! When we go I always find something great! There is just something about thrifting in another town! This year I will be looking for area rugs to put down on the wood floors!! :>)


*While we are gone, Lon is supposed to replace the floors in the family room! We have been living on the gross staple infested plywood for almost a week! I am also hoping that he gets the room painted! I have all the paint colors picked out and he needs to do it before I change my mind!


*I am really really wanting to get our house organized! I have been living in this chaos for way to long! It really gets to me! I NEED organizations or I just don't function and end up have a two yr old fit!! Everything from basement to garage is totally out of control! We just need places to put things and everything needs to have an assigned place and everyone NEEDS to follow it! So then when the kids need their shoes or bike helmets, they know exactly where to go!! And then I don't have to waste 10-15 minutes sifting thru junk!!


So this brings me to a point!! "I really really really want an IKEA, here in Kansas!!!" I hope they hear me! Yes, Tori!! I am soo jealous of you! You have one really close! We drove right past it on our way home from SA! Have you people seen their stuff! It is awesome!!


We did finally finish putting the poly in the DR and LVR floors! They look great!!


I just wanted to catch up a bit and let you know that I have been extremely busy! I did the spirit wear again for my Daughters' school! They are soooo RAD!!

IKEA is indeed a rad store. I was closer to the one in Utah when I lived there, but I'm not too far now.

School starts here like on Aug. 26. Y'all DO start early!!
