I have a secret....

NO for those that read....I AM NOT PREGNANT!! ha ha! It's really no secret but its nice to think of it that way! But.....

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER!!

Well tomorrow is my last day of official work! YAAAAAYYYY! Today we went to celebrate the last school day with children by grabbing some SNO-CONES on our way home from grandma's. It was so nice to get off work early relax, get the car washed and head for sno-cones! Let me just say....I HATE taking the car to get washed. I did not like the experience and David simply laughed at me but whatever.
After work I met David and his mom at Lowe's they were getting some organizational ideas for our summer projects.

Summer Bucket List:
  • Organize and Re-arrange our bedroom closet
  • Finish organizing and cleaning the laundry room/office (this is sooner than later as Shaft might be here this weekend)
  • Plan Dj's birthday party
  • Survive Dj's birthday party--July 7th (you better not miss it) I've already told some people and put it on calendars....yes I am that over achieving mother that has had this planned since last year!
  • Spend as much time as possible enjoying the summer break
  • Make an exercise plan and stick to it :)
  • Prepare Dj for Mother's Day Out!! <----I can't believe our big boy will be going to school next year! (Proud Mommy moment)
  • Take a family vacation with Norma (We may or may not get to go with them but it would be nice if we could!)
I am sure that I'll have more to add....oh and did I mention somewhere in all of this I will be taking my GRE exam and filing my application with Texas Tech Graduate School for the Fall.

Well tomorrow should be an easy breezy day!! Check in at work make sure nothing is wrong with my paperwork that I turned in earlier today and then DATE DAY with the hubby once he gets off work!!

Whew!! School's OUT for Summer!!

Wow its been a crazy time for our little family! David has been busy working and working on all our remodel stuff--kitchen and bathroom! I've been working on finishing up the school year, bible study and FINALLY planning Dj's birthday party! This past week I took Dj to our bible study and I must say he was a distraction but it has been a wonderful experience growing with these ladies! We are reading and following Believing God by Beth Moore. I love my weekly time with these ladies because its a wonderful time to just reflect on life and all the blessings God has given us! What I am thinking about most is that we must believe is "God is who God says He is"!
This is our first weekend that hasn't been crazy busy yet we are still busy...we had Andrew's graduation Friday night in Colorado City! I'll post a picture later...We are very proud of Andrew even though he will be attending Texas A & M!! Today we stayed home and worked on cleaning, organizing and of course David worked on the kitchen! Tomorrow we'll be working on the kitchen some more and then have a birthday party for a family friend!
I am very proud of myself because I placed the first order for Dj's birthday and that will be in around June 10th! I am processing the next order and just waiting on the pinata to come back in stock to place that order! I've decided on centerpieces, balloons, cakes, decorations etc...I am thrilled to be planning this party! The only thing that I'm having a little issue with is what activities to have for the kids that attend the party to participate in....swimming, jump-o-lene....hmmm....maybe a mixture...I am currently leaning towards a swimming pool...

Doesn't this seem like such an awesome swimming pool for little ones!!
Well I think its time for us to head to bed...Davids checking out textures and I think its time to rest my brain from planning!
