Its me! Sorry for the delay in updates

WOW where did the time go? I will try to some up our busy lives in the past 2 weeks. Last weekend was a nice one. On Friday night we went to a balloon glow. The girls loved it. They wanted to go back on Saturday and see the balloons go up in the air so we did. It reminded me of my grandma. It was a bitter sweet reminder that she is not here, but her spirit will always live on. You see when I was growing up, my grandparent s had a cabin in Gunison(SP) Colorado, when I was little we would spend Christmas there, as I got older we would go in July. In July they would have hot air balloons, and my grandparents would sponsor one so my entire family would get to ride unlimited in the balloons when they went up. I think they usually went up 3 days if I remember correctly. We would get up at the crack of dawn and go ride and Chase the balloons. It was a great experience. So when i saw the balloons this past weekend. I remember the fun my family had riding and chasing these balloons. My grandparents never went up in the balloons, they were content to watch all their kids/grandkids go up. My grandparents are amazing people. I could never truly put into words the impact the 2 of them have had on my life and the person I have become. I love them so much. Anyway, as Sunday rolled around I decided to let the girls help me wash my van. They again had a great time and wanted to wash Daddy's car as well, so we did. The girls had a great weekend.




























On Monday it was off to school for both girls. I had Girls scout orientation that morning so I can become a leader. Then on Tuesday we had a laid back day. Wednesday as usual was a busy one for us, the girls had school, Garrett and I had a playdate at our house, then I went to drop off the money I had raised for Light the Night and we had some more friends over, then cheerleading. Thursday was our light the night walk. As the day started there was a 30% chance of rain, it didn't rain all day until about 6:30 it started to sprinkle, by the beginning of the walk it was raining pretty good, but we walked anyway and the kids loved it. I must say a big thank you to my friends who braved the rain for this great cause.




This weekend I had Girl Scout age level training for 5 hours on Saturday, it was very informative and I think I am ready. Now hopefully I will have some parents who want to help out. Lainey is again sick, well I am not sure she is sick I think it may be allergies, but she is coughing horribly. Garrett was just crying all day and didn't want to be put down so I hope he isn't getting sick.





well I am off to bed another busy day tomorrow I will try to update more tomorrow. Thanks for checking on us, till next time remember to hug and kiss your family and tell them you love them, today is gone and tomorrow may never come.........
