Whew.. Summer is here.Totally. In full swing.
I'm beginning to wonder why we do this to ourselves. Why do we fill up our lives with all this stuff? So much to the point that we can barely enjoy ourselves? I'm wondering where the sitting on the front porch, sipping on lemonade comes in..... Does that happen anymore? Or are we all sipping away on our FREE strawberry lemonade from Mc d's (free because of  couponing) while we are rushing here and there..... And btw in my opinion they aren't all that they are talked up to be. So don't get one unless you have a coupon for a free one. :)


Anyhow.. My goal next week is to say no a little bit more maybe. We will see:) I do love the feeling after a summer day... The feeling of being. dead. tired... falling into bed feeling like you accomplished something that day. Ohh yes.. i do only love that feeling if i am able to sleep the whole night through and not be getting up too often with a teething/sick child......But that is another story for another day.

One day this week we spent our day doing corn.

We had some willing helpers. this is the first year that Carter is actually, truly helping :)

NO need to cook the stuff... its good either way!!

He LOVED finding worms in the corn.. Definitely a boy!! ..

Little cousin Caitlyn holding her ear of corn. Brooklyn gave it to her and said "Bite?"

In the flower department here there is more happiness abounding...

Someday i will show you the actual flower beds....... :)

Happy summer time to each one of you!! May you be blessed with lots of sunshine and nice pool to cool down in!!! :)
