Hello JULY!


The month that has the smallest amount on the To-do list, but seems to still fly by! My birthday (last in my 20s eek!), Brian's birthday, our 5 year wedding anniversary, open houses (housES....omg!!!), hair cuts and school supply and school clothes shopping...and then the sizzling days inbetween with pool and lake playdates, movies, water fights, and late nights....its probably one of the most fun months of the year for me...even though I am not a fan of the blistering temperatures. 
I got my glasses yesterday and spent the rest of the day almost brought to tears seeing things I forgot what they looked like. I was amazed how well I could see and how many more colors there are in the world. I was just smiling like crazy driving around, the flowers, the shades of green, shadows, seeing leaves on trees as individuals, the vibrant colors of the reds, blues, yellows....the way the clouds looked....it was amazing really. I cannot believe how much I have been missing!! I am excited to go look at more stuff today!
Tonight my mom is keeping the kids for us so we can celebrate our 8 year mark. Not sure yet what we plan on doing but we will figure it out I am sure. I dont care what we do really...I thought about a million different ideas, but they all feel the same. LOL. 
I am super excited for the 4th of July, Looking forward to seeing the kids' faces while they watch the show, looking forward to spending time with friends, and celebrating happiness. We are also going to go see Brian's grandparents again too. I think Brian wants to take his grandfather and the kids to a parade there in Cumming with a steam engine or something. I will hang out with his grandmother and pick some more blueberries. I have a ton of blue berry recipes I want to try out this summer and fall so I need to see how many I can get from him :) Going to plant my own bushes next year I think too. Part of our huge yard overhaul we plan on doing with the garden and stuff this fall.
Today is going to be another scorcher, but I got things to get done like emissions and fireworks/4th stuff to buy...so I guess I better get up and get on it so I can relax this afternoon before my big night!! Yippee!


Here's to the second half of 2011 being even better than the first!!
