School is almost out for the summer

School will be out next week. In the last week this is what happened….

Husband home-yippee because kids and I had great fun

Rabbit in back yard. Kids wanted to keep. I worried about my carrots and green beans in the garden. Does he not know about Bejamin Bunny.

Son caught fish that is now swimming in Tortuga sandbox in backyard.

White puppy got into backyard. Sweet daughter cried when my hub told her doggy already had family.

Hub and I thought about buying an RV but we were just dreaming and woke up.

My daughter made the best strawberry rainbow frosting cake on the earth.

My son reached AR 10.

My husband edged the yard without me even asking.

Watched “Rise of the Lycanns” and liked the movie.

Reading “Bella Tuscany”. Wish I was in Tuscany.

Made khaki shorts with dog print hem for son and he said “yuck”.

Had BBQ and cold Shiner Bock waiting for husband when he got home from the road.

My daughter wrote and song and made a CD at school (beautiful!)

Life is dolce……..

Mary Jo Peckham Park In Katy, TX Has Affordable Swim Lessons

aznos4040 — Fri, 22 May 2009 08:14:52 +0000

I wanted to pass this along before it is too late. Mary Jo Peckham Park in Katy, TX offers Red Cross swimming lessons for kids and everyone. The slots fill up pretty quick. Last year I had to physically drive over to the community center and sign up for the lessons. Here

This is not the Peckham pool. Just a generic pool.

This is not the Peckham pool. Just a generic pool.

is the website: http://www.pct3.hctx.net/cc_maryjopeckham/activities.aspx.

My kids had a great time since it is an indoor pool. Pretty much all the Houston parks have Red Cross swimming lessons but I live in Katy and that is what I know about. More about the facility later.

Hurry and call before all the slots are gone.

Gwen Stefani Payless Shoes

Today, I bought some cheap summer canvas shoes for the kids and me at Payless. My daughter pointed these out and told me to try them out.

Who would buy these shoes? Where would you be going?

I am 5’7″ and I was feeling like a giant girl. These are the type of shoes you wear in a music video for about 5 minutes with a Harajuku girl. They would be cute as part of a Halloween costume but I have never had to wear any type of costume that matches that kind of shoe.

You should have seen the Giraffe flats. They were so cute but I have nowhere to wear them plus they are not practical for cutting the yard and killing fire ants.
