My Daybook!

Dad and Ava! I thought this was way cute! My picture for thought I wanted to share!!

Daybook--June 22, 2010
Outside my window...the sun is shining bright, and it is HOT!!

I am thinking...about a lot of things. Like...I wish I could blog more, my boys guitar needs to be tuned, I have a lot to do for the weekend of camping......

I am thankful for...chocolate. I have been craving chocolate a lot lately. And a good brownie and yummy double chocolate chip cookie has hit the spot. I am also thankful that God is merciful and knows my failures.

From the kitchen...Last night I made one of my favorite salads, thanks to my buddy Melissa. A Chicken Taco Salad. I'm pretty sure I could eat multiple bowls of this at one sitting. The other thing that has been in my kitchen this week is a pepper (green, red, and yellow), cucumber, onion, tomatoe, balsamic dressing, and feta cheese salad. Love that one!! Strange coming from a girl who use to hate veggies.

I am wearing...some comfy gray capris, and a t-shirt. I love comfy clothes.

I am creating...I have been working on my digital scrapbooking program the last few nights and building my selection of items to use on the pages. It is exciting, I just hope I actually create a page soon.

I am going...to hopefully sit down and read my book today.

I am reading...The Twilight Book :Eclipse. I have already read this but am reading it again because my book club wants to go see it on opening night. Which I am not going to go b/c they are going at midnight and it is best for all those around me if I don't do that to myself. :)

I am hoping...to go to Target and Hobby Lobby today. I know that is a crazy hope but I sure would like a new pair of shorts. :)

I am hearing...Caden mess around on his guitar and Arlee read books to her sister in between playing the piano.

Around the house...I need to start going through EVERYTHING!!! In order to put our house up for sale I need to get busy, but of course the motivation is a problem for me.

One of my favorite things...Is when my kids make me giggle. Sometimes they say or do the funniest things. I also LOVE to hear Ava giggle.

A few plans for the rest of the week: Going to go to a park with some great ladies from church and get to know them more. I can't wait for that. I am also going to meet up with my Bible Study ladies whom I have missed a lot. Get a hair cut and go Camping!!!

8 Months Old

My little Ava Grace is 8 Months old. I am pretty sure time just is gone in a blink. I can't believe all she is doing. She wants to walk so bad, she is standing at the couch and the tables. She is sitting all by herself and eating some table food all by herself. She is also very vocal. She likes to hear herself talk a lot. Her and Arlee will be a great team when she gets bigger. I am sure they will sing together one day. Mom give me that camera!!
