Summer Livin' is Easy

and time is flying! Two weeks since my last post, and that was a brief one at that. Since coming back from Vegas, I've done some hard physical work deep-cleaning my kitchen and had lots of fun playing too. Some of the highlights of the last two weeks include:

• A 4th of July BBQ with both sides of the family--nearly 40 people
• Visiting our friends, Sonny and Roxanne, and holding their newborn son, Madden James, while they ate the dinner I brought them
• Dinner with Tina at Wood Ranch Grill
• Breakfast with Terry at The Corner Bakery and seeing My Sister's Keeper
• Seeing The Proposal with Frances and lunch at Panda Express afterwards
• Making fruit & yogurt parfaits for my sons for breakfast
• Reading lots and lots
• Knitting even more
• Watching season one of The Tudors on DVD with my husband
• Painting Natalie's toes pink last weekend!
• Early morning quiet time to read my devotional and bible
• Watching Big Brother Season 11 kick off--go Brains!!!
• Having the time and motivation to cook more so hubby can stay out of the kitchen (I rarely cook during the school year)
• Dinner at BJ's with the family to celebrate the twins' straight As in their freshman year

I really hope I can be more disciplined about posting here! I love looking back and remembering special moments or everyday gratitudes that I would have forgotten if I hadn't shared it here.
