Finally hot enough!

The last week and a half its finally got hot enough to enjoy our little pool! Yeaaa!! B and I have even gotten in a couple of times with the kids. The kids are having fun swimming and relaxing a lot in the water, which was both the goals of getting the pool in the first place........mission being accomplished!! If you look close you can even see the little orange ball going through the hoop! Nice shot Z!

Scout Rocket

Last night was Pack mtg. at Scouts. The boys all made these 2 liter rockets and then got to launch them a couple of times. They went so high, it was more fun than fireworks to watch!

Summer Fun

We decided to get the kids a pool for the summer. I needed something for them to do, and I want Z to relax a little in the water (he still is quite scared). My parent's have an awesome deck, (that my handsome hubby built) that is perfect to have the pool on. So far this summer has been uncommonly cold and rainy so we have only been able to use it a couple of times. The water you see is from the most recent rain storm. Hopefully it will warm up enough soon to use it a lot more!

Crocheted Hershey Kiss

I crocheted this for M's preschool teacher as a thank you. It turned out pretty cute. I think I am going to make some more, like a bigger one for my kitchen since I decorate in m&m and hershey.

Look what I found......

I went into the kids room tonight to collect their laundry to wash and this is what I found.......with safety scissors on the floor right next to it! I am not a happy camper! I knew it wasn't Z, so I called my girls in the room to try and see if I could get them to fess-up. I think they both did it but I'm not sure. Needless to say.......I will by hiding all scissors for a while! Their excuse was that they couldn't find any paper to cut! Seriously? The hampers are a total loss, they are a mesh fabric, I just through them out. I can't believe my girls cut up my hampers! AAAGGGGHHHH!!
