One Crazy Summer!


I can't believe that Summer is almost over! Is it really the middle of August already?? Usually the end of Summer isn't such a big deal to me because I am a "Fall girl." However, at the end of this Summer my Logan is starting preschool! Oh, I don't know if I am ready for it, but I have no choice! I just keep telling myself that he will be fine and it's going to be good for him! In all reality, I KNOW that HE will be fine, but I KNOW that I won't! HA!


Another added bonus to this Summer is that Dustin has been home since the end of June. He had surgery in late July and will be home, rehabbing for another couple of weeks! While I didn't want Dustin to have have surgery, I am glad that we were able to spend the Summer together! Especially since this is our last Summer before school starts!! We have obviously stayed around home and haven't gone on a real vacation but we all have enjoyed being with one another!!



My Luke turned 2 a couple of a couple of weeks ago. We decided to have his party at the park. My boy loves sports, especially baseball. Dustin thought it would be fun to have an outdoor party at a park with a baseball diamond for the kids to play on! Sounds great and like a lot of fun...right??!! Well, it would have been great to have the party outdoors but wouldn't you know it...it POURED RAIN ALL DAY THE DAY OF HIS PARTY!!!!!!!!! We made a last minute change in location and had the big birthday party (with lots of people!) at my parent's house! We were a bit crammed but a good time was had by all! Thanks Mom and Dad for "hosting"the party!!

A few short days after Luke turned 2, I celebrated my 33rd birthday! WOW!! I was talking to Dustin and while my age keeps climbing, birthdays aren't like they used to be and I am fine with that. Once you become a mom, it's all about the kids! My main focus is making sure my boys have the time of their lives on their birthdays. My only wish or request for my birthday is to spend it with Dustin and my boys!!

Dustin always does something nice for my birthday and this year was no exception! Friday night, we went to a baseball game and had a great time! Great seats...right there in the action!! I love going to games and being a part of it!! Saturday, I, along with my parents, went and cheered on my 2 cousins who participated in the Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk! What an amazing task they took on and completed!! I am so proud of them!!! Then Saturday night, I hung out with some of my friends and ended up talking for 7 hours!! Can you believe that...just talked and snacked!! We had a great time!! Sunday, I got up and relaxed a bit, cleaned the house and then Dustin and I went to some of the closing ceremonies for the Breast Cancer Walk. Then back home to an evening of family and dinner!! I had a great birthday weekend!!



That's about it for now!! We are taking it easy for the next few weeks and then Dustin goes back to work and Logan starts school! I am going to enjoy these next couple of weeks with my guys! I am so truly blessed!!
Hope you enjoyed more pictures from our Summer in this post!! The park pictures were taken by one of our friends! She did an amazing job and I love them!!
