We be Chillin'...

Well it's Friday and I'm tired...Grey and I have 4 more days lefts of school and then it's sweet ol' summer time...I think I'll take that;)

 Lots of playing at the park for us this week...

Sister was dancing in her rainboots...I love this girl...

 Grey wanted on the baby swing for a bit...trust me that didn't last too long...

Uncle Just was home this past week so we did a lot of 'enjoying'...

Is this a good uncle or what??!

Lovin' life and lovin' the swings...

We are still stocking the neighborhood pond...and let me tell you it's a miracle that these little fish make it into this pond alive;)  Some littles around here tend to want to squeeze them a little too tight;)

Sister was almost thrown in;)

Happy Friday!  We hope you enjoy your long weekend!

Our Friday Night...

The comfort of home...

and pretty sunsets too:)  Are you feeling the glow? - i was;)

a little added sun flare...

My mama heart was enjoying last night.  I've started a new hash tag titled #Midwestliving on my pictures...Pretty appropriate don't you think?!...we can never get a handle on this weather but when it's good we get out and enjoy it...

A good Friday night indeed - Outside, a bottle of wine, and some cheese and crackers...(wonderful appetizers-ha!)

 he's been practicing his dribbling skills...

Auntie Mims was home so she gave him a few pointers;) - (you know back in the day she played a little b-ball herself....)

Baby dolls always make her happy...

 Look at him leaning against that steering wheel...

Come on mama - hop on!

Thumbs up to a happy weekend!

Hope you get out and do something fun!

An Irish Celebration...

Last weekend we joined in on the St. Patrick's Day festivities that were going on around town.  We started our Saturday with a parade.

Sailor was home sleeping so Nate stayed home with her....

 

You can never have enough beads on...

(Alex, Giuliana, mom, dad)

after the parade we headed over to Dee Dee's for a little St. Patrick's Day party...we had corned beef and cabbage, carrots, potatoes and of course some fun green desserts;)

how Saturday nights have changed for some of us;)

 

I bought this dress a long time ago before I had kids (i found it on ebay).....It was for one of my good friends and when her girls grew out of it she gave it back to me for Sailor....i thought that was really nice...

Yummy pinterest dessert that my aunt Amy made...

cousins are the best...

the green river was flowing...

(phone pics from the night)

And Sunday morning we had a surprise visit from 'Lucky' the leprechaun...

 NOT a real puppy....but this one dances and shakes its booty;)

Lucky also left us a trail of green and gold coins and some candy to pick up...

And right now I am starting to freak out because we leave for Hawaii FRIDAY....I can't believe it's already here!!!  I have started to pack and I'm a little overwhelmed but so excited.  I just hope my kids do alright on the LONNNNNGGGGG flight.  Say a prayer for us...Thanks!

 See...I'm showing you my 'freak out/overwhelmed/notsurewhatdirectiontogoin' face...
