Our day out.

Today Nathanael had school, so I thought I would take the kids to a water park. I got them all ready, swimsuits and all, and out we went. We drove 30 min to get to the park only to find that now you have to pay for parking!! That wasn't so bad, but what was worse there was noone at the park except for a creepy looking man with a metal detector. I would have paid the couple bucks to let Ivy and Ari play with other kids knowing there were other mothers about...but not with this creepy man so close and me being the only adult around.

My plan was to visit a friend of mine after we played at the park, and since we weren't going to the park I decided to head over to the bakery she works at...but before we got there, Ivy had to go potty...so we pulled into Walgreens parking lot...After getting into the restroom I noticed that my shirt was wet where Ari had been resting against me...yup you guessed it, his little swimmy diaper wasn't doing the job. I hadn't brought any diapers in with me, but pee was just driping from him so I took off the swimmy only to find a puddle of pee in it...nothing had been absorbed...Then what does Ari do? Yup...right again, He peed all over the floor while I was trying to clean off his legs. After getting him all cleaned off, I held him against me and used my purse to cover his bum and we all walked out to the car...i wish someone had a camera at this moment...I finanally got him some dry clothes...and then we were off.

We met up with Carol at her bakery. Ivy and Ari both wanted a cupcake so I let them pick out the ones they wanted. Ivy got a pink icing one and Ari picked the chocolate one. The cupcakes were both O-SO-GOOD!

Congrats!

Brendan's album just got reviewed on Indie Vision Music.

My find!!!

I went yard sailing *yes I spelled it that way on purpose!* today with a friend of mine. The last place that we stopped at, I found my treasure!! This first picture it is a little hard to see, but that is the name Emily engraved on what I believe is silver...whether its all silver or just silver plated I'm not sure yet...none the less...it is my name!! I couldn't believe it when I saw it!! How much do you think I paid??

$0.25!!!

It is a done deal!

Nathanael officially joined the Air Force on Thursday, August 7th, 2008. He leaves for basic training in January. Nothing else is decided at this point in time...I'll keep you "posted"

One week down.

Ivy left last week about this time, and she will be gone for one more week. She went to Ohio to spend time with family. My sister and grandmother took her to Ohio. She is staying most of the time with at my dad's house. She went to KY for the weekend. And I hear that she gets to go to Kings Island on Thursday!!

My sister has posted some pictures of Ivy having a good time...check them out if you get the chance.
