Fun, Wet, Sunday

We spent this Sunday afternoon at my parents house and I think Matthew was complaining about being bored outside so Mom started chasing them with the hose.

They thought they'd be safer on the deck.

Look out now, Grandma! Matthew brought out the big guns!

Flower Girl Princess

I bought this dress 8 1/2 years ago for my best friend's daughter to wear in our wedding. She was almost 3 at the time. Since then it has been used mainly for dress up but my friend kept it and recently gave it to me for Gigi to have. Well, she put it on the other day and let's just say it was love at first wear. She absolutely loves this dress! Unfortunately it makes her trip up our already treacherous staircase so I don't let her wear it very often yet, but I have a feeling we will get a few good years of dress up action out of this one.

Moving Again

I just spent 3 days in Pennsylvania packing up the rest of our belongings and hauling it (and my husband) back to Indiana and moving it back into our house that we moved out of 10 months ago. (long story) Bet you wish I had a picture of that!

I can't believe how many trailers I've hauled behind my truck in the past couple months. Or how many large pieces of furniture I've moved by myself. That is definitely men's work. I am by no means a feminist. I will gladly leave the hard grunt work to the men while I take on the sissy work of raising children.

I'll admit I enjoyed my few days vacation from my two littlest sweethearts. I got to sleep uninterrupted and I was amazed at all the things I got done in one day! But I missed them and was happy to get back to them.

Grandma Diane and Brenda came along with us when we moved so that another trailer could be pulled. We had fun having them in Indiana. On their last night there everybody played outside until 9pm when I made the kids go to bed. (Yes, it's still very light out at 9pm. As I've always said, Indiana is too far west to be on eastern time, Mitch Daniels!!!!!! )

So, we are back home in Indiana and are slowly settling back into our house. I am regretting not coming over when the house was empty and scrubbing it from top to bottom. If only I was as adept at painting as my hubby, I could have had the whole house painted too. :)
