The family is visiting...

You are probably wondering after 6 months, why all the posts?n Well, I have taken a break from couponing, my other time consuming hobby. My Mom, sister, niece, nephew and aunt from TN are visiting. It's been so great having them here. I feel like I've had a break and some extra time to catch up. The kids are playing great together!

Been having a fabulous time playing in the pool out back.

Quinn loves the water

Mason is doing a good job watering the flowers

Maddy wants to go snorkeling

All BOY!

Cycling adventures

So, I took a 6 month vacation from blogging. I'm back (again) and excited to share some of the things we have been doing this summer. I'm thrilled because I was recently blessed with a new camera. Hopefully the pics will be sharper & better. I sure have alot to learn about this camera. It does way more than I will ever figure out i'm sure.

We've been biking as a family some. When it's hot we can usually bear it b/c there's typically some breeze. Luke is thrilled to ride his new "pull" or tag along, at least that's what I call it. He is having a great time with it. I'm hoping he will get motivated to lose the training wheels in the next year. Oh, these photo are with my point & shoot camera. New camera photos are coming soon.

Love these boys!

Lovely...

This is our perennial garden out back. It is filled with flowers from mothers day, gifts from friends & a few transplants from neighbors. It looks awesome because my sweet husband totally reworked the soil & moved all the plants around. I think it's just Lovely.
