I think its about time for some updates and new pics! It seems like everyday is full of new things to talk about! Melyssa is done with 2nd grade and loving life mostly girl scouts, she is a very proud girl scout and Austin is done with 1st grade, hes not a girl scout! haha but he is a happy kid too. He is excited to play sports all summer and see fireworks on the fourth of July. Remember when little things used to be soo exciting? What happened? Oh, thats right we became adults and now have responsibilities! Being a grown up is over rated. They are so very smart it almost worries me! We are really blessed! Joe and I are still working and hating it but ya gotta do what ya gotta do ya know?. I'm feeling much better this week i have had time to rest and no work makes it even better. My vacation is over on Monday and I'm sad, there was only 2 nice days the whole week! I'm now complaining though, I'm just saying where is the sunshine?? We had a lot of fun with the kids even with the crappy weather. We managed to pack the week with a ton of fun things to do! First we went to blast off which was a whole different level of entertainment! We took Joe's sister Wendy with us, she even got in the ball pit! (for those of you who don't know Wendy she has down syndrome and is 40) She is definitely my favorite lady!! She had lots of fun and the kids did too! Next we went to the Circus. I was kinda disappointed but the kids had a blast! The got to ride an elephant and see all sorts of random circus acts. Austin said his favorite was the guys juggling with fire and the lion. Missy really liked the tigers and the dance-rope swing acts. (i don't know what they are called!) Haha. Then to top it all off, we went camping on Wednesday the weather wasn't the greatest but it was enough to have a goo time. The kids really are great camping buddies! We went on a hike and saw a deer played all day and made up fun stories around the campfire. If it where up to me we would go camping at least once a week! I love the outdoors. :) All in all it was a fantastic week and its only gonna get better! Next week is Joe's birthday and Sunday is fathers day, I look forward to making fun cards and gifts. :) The kids are good little artists.. Well i was going to post a ton of cute pics but my computer is being stupid so thats it for now I will figure it out then the pictures will be posted!!
