I know I am late again BUT it has been crazy at my house so there is my excuse I didnt say it was a good one.
We are still working on the House and I dont think it will ever get finished. We have completed Halies bath room. We painted it a honey yellow (even though it looks brown) got her a new small armour and a make up table her colors are teal and cream Ryan hung new lights and door pulls and it looks like a different room, and for all who knows how much time it took me painting the flower murals on the walls YES it was very hard for me to paint over all that BUT she wanted a more grown up look so thats what we did.
On the 3rd Brent Toni all the kids and Toni's sister and her kids came over and we had a little swimming party. The next day we went with them to dave and busters and ran into Miranda and Tripp and had a fun after noon. Sunday we worked around the house. On the 6th Halie finished her driving class hours she had already passed all of her driving test but she had a few observing hours to finish. We are very proud of her for sticking out the class, most of her friends did it via the Internet but I told her she would be a better driver doing it this way and when she turns 16 all she has to do is go fill out the paper work and she is done no driving with the police officer YEA.
That Wednesday I started painting the down stairs of the house, continue that on Thursday and by Friday I could hardly move. Brent and the kids came over and so did Barbara and Miranda and of course Tripp to hang out. Saturday Sierra went with a friend to six flags and she rode the shock wave CAN YOU BELIEVE IT. Halie went with Ryan and I to find bedroom furniture. Halie got a new bedroom suit, Sierra is getting our bedroom suit and we got a new suit with a king size bed.
Halie spent the night with Blake that night and Ryan and I went out to dinner and a nice drive with the top down. Sunday yep you guessed it worked at the house
monday 13 Kim and Colton came over to swim and Sierra had Cheerleading practice.
Tuesday Ryan and I spent the day picking out tile and the guys starting doing the sheet rock in our bathroom. Ryan and Brent left Wednesday on the trip to California to go deep see fishing with Rick and others. I took the girls to do a little pre school clothes shopping. Wednesday I watched Tripp so Miranda could go get the paper work done on her new teaching job in Lewisville Congrats to her. Friday I painted and the girls had sleep overs so I had some peace and quiet. Saturday was my birthday Halie called me at 12:01 to tell me HBD. I picked up Sierra from her friends house and drove her to another friends house to go to a water park. Halie came home in time to baby sit Colton so Kim,Toni and I could go out to Ernestos for my Birthday. Ryan comes home today, and if you keep up with my blog you will notice that Ryan and I have been apart for Valentines day, our anniversary, and now my birthday all thats left for the year is his birthday.
To let you know how everyone is doing, Ryan is still under 200 pounds and I cant believe how skinny he looks. He is still into the day trading and loving it, things are picking back up at the shop. He told me his trip on the high seas WAS AN EXPERIENCE!!!. He said the water was very choppy the first day out but he only puked one time, Brent on the other had was extremely sick and puked at least 15 times. He said they both would have paid any amount of money to be on dry land. The next day was better or the water was calmer I would say.
They each caught a few . Saturday they canned the tuna and will be bringing it home Ryan said one tuna will make a case of cans.
Halie is very happy to be finished with drivers training Ryan even let her drive my car the other day. That was a nail biter for me. She has been hanging out with Blake a lot and Blake is going to go to Pilot Point instead of Aubrey. She met a boy at DT and they have been spending a lot of time on the phone because he lives in Haslet, so today I am taking her down there and his parents are dropping them of at the movies so I guess its kinda like a first date thing. And then his parents are bring her home.
Sierra our little dare devil is doing great she is doing the PeeWee chearleading for the last year and cant wait to start school.
And I am about the same ( cant wait for the kids to start school)
The house is coming along, we have the tiles guys coming Monday to lay the tile in the master bath I finished painting it Saturday and staining and sealing the cabinets too. I kilzed Ryans office, moved everything out but the futon and plastic off everything will Ryan was gone so the sheet rock guys cane do the room and the guest bath room walls, as soon as that is done we can get new carpet laid and then bring in the new furniture. now we all know I am by no means a neat freak but I am tired of my house being in such a disarray Plastic hanging every where , ladders, paint rollers and everything is sitting in my foyer UGGGGG. But when its all finished it will look great and then Ryan will start tearing the kitchen apart.
The kids go back to school the day after Labor day and thats when my summer break starts.
With it being so hot the last few weeks our pool has been a popular place to be. So I decided to add some pictures of that.
Hope every one has a great week.
