JULY 2016 Round Up

Since the kids are starting school this coming Monday, I should probably post about our July!!

There was a lot of dominos and UNO played this month!  Too stinking hot to do much else!  

I highlighted my hair....and loved it!  It's about time to put this box stuff back on...in time for school!

We celebrated the 4th with the Szymanski's again!!  They rented an amazing waterslide that the kids absolutely loved (as well as some of the mommies...that is Ashlee on the top right!!!)!  

The actual 4th we watched fireworks at a church friend's house!  They are always so gracious to provide an amazing show!!  

 Aidan was at camp the week of the 4th....I only have pics I could steal off FB.  They weren't allowed to take their phones.  But here Aidan is leading his team in a basketball discussion...

When he came back it was time to see the orthodontist.  And yes....he does have to have braces.  :(  

My sweet friend, Ashlee, brought me these GORGEOUS sunflowers!!!  I loved them.  

Daisy was very loving this month...she thinks she's a lap dog, but her girth proves otherwise!!

Mom and dad took the kids to Lake Whitney during the third week of July.  While they were gone I relaxed and enjoyed the quiet....with the exception of painting our island.  I didn't like it at first, and neither did Joey, but it's grown on me now!  :)

During the last part of June and first part of July I FINALLY started and completed many gallery walls in our house!!  Whohoo!!  Here are some shots I posted on Instagram...

I wasn't feeling so great the last week of July...and Obug helped sort the laundry!!  It was so cute watching him determine who owned the clothes, what stack they went into and how to fold underwear!!

Here is Finn and the birthday boy Josh, the last Saturday in July!!  Ashlee rented the same waterslide from the 4th and the kids had a great time.  Thanks mom for taking all the kids to the party!!

Big sister "teaching" Owen....she is so sweet and so patient with him.  

July was great...lot of things were accomplished and I am happy!!
