It's Hot!

Wow, it sure is hot out. I am a hot weather fan, but anything over 90 is pushing it for me. But then I think, isn't summer what we wait all winter for?

Haven't had a whole lot going on the last few days. I took a long weekend last weekend and it went by so fast. Chad's sister Kristy and Alex came and hung out by the pool for a bit on Saturday. Sunday was Father's Day so we took Chad to breakfast, did the normal Sunday grocery shopping, relaxed for a bit around the house, then went to the driving range. We had fun. It has been a really long time since I hit golf balls and Keegan never has. The guy working had a kids club that he let her use and needless to say, she had a blast. Now we are on the lookout for some kids clubs.

On Monday I took Keegan to the Potter Park Zoo. We got stormed on and had to stay inside one of the buildings there for over an hour! Then we visited my sister and did some shopping. The days went by too fast as they always do when your not working.

The last two days have been hot! We have been taking full advantage of the pool. I did not go running last night, but played a game of kickball with Keegan, got tons of excercise from that though. I went for my physical today and thought that I had gained a ton of weight, but I only weigh 2 pounds more then I did last year. I was surprised, but am still working had to lose about 10 pounds! I will wait til later tonight to go for my run, I will probably sweat off the 10 pounds I am working on:) Just over 1 month til the color run, I am excited! Chad has even been training for it! It will be a good time.

Bad News

Besides the whole refridgerator fiasco, which has become even bigger, we got other bad news this week. The refridgerator we bought is way too small, still looking for one to fit our space, the new range that was supposed to be in the store is not yet there and we already took the old one out. Still on a mission for a refridgerator but using the other til we find it.

The really bad news is that we found out this week that Keegan's multiage teacher, Mrs. Anderson, will be taking a new position next year and will not be her teacher. We are so sad about this, yet so grateful that Keegan had the opportunity to have her for the 2 years that she did. She has been an amazing role model and teacher to Keegan. Keegan said she was so sad when she told her, that she cried. Now that is an amazing teacher. Mrs. Anderson's son will be playing for the St. Louis Rams this year, we wonder if that had something to do with her new position? It is so hard to believe that I now have a 2nd grader. I think I am getting old!

At 4 o'clock today, I will be out of work til next Tuesday. I am taking a much needed fun weekend off. Tomorrow is going to be catching up on some housework while waiting for our new range, then off to run some errands and search for a fridge! Saturday will be family pool party at the in-laws, which is where I would be regardless of who was there. Sunday is father's day so that is up to Chad on what he wants to do. We may go to Lake Michigan for the day, but if not, Keegan and I are heading there on Monday. I am looking forward to this weekend. I have a few small projects that I would like to do around the house as well, like cleaning out Keegan's playroom which a tornado has gone thru :) She also has a wooden table and chairs that her and I are gonna work on creatively painting.

After playing catchup this weekend I have some BIG projects planned. I want to paint Keegan's bedroom, again! I also want to paint my kitchen cabinets and add some new hardware. This is going to be a big project! I also have so many toys and clothes that I need to find homes for. I also still have car seats, strollers and high chairs. By the time I decide to have more kids these will be so outdated anyways :) I should have a garage sale, but I kinda don't want to fuss with that, however I feel like I should, will probably make a fortune, we will see. If no sale, then I shall be making lots of donations!

18 Year Old Appliances

This weekend our beloved 18 year old fridge finally called it quits on us:( It has been acting up for quite some time, and unfortunetely we had just gone to Meijer and got groceries. We now have food stashed everywhere, Chad's parents, our camper refridgerator, and at my work! I met Chad at Lowe's to buy the new one this morning and of course they did not have the one that I had picked out yesterday, but the good news is they upgraded us for the same price as the other one! While we were at it we decided to replace the stove as well, so it will be nice having these upgraded appliances!

Summertime

It is almost officially summer for us. Keegan gets out of school next week, so hard to believe I will soon have a second grader! I am so ready for summer to begin. Chad and I coached her softball team this year and that is over now, we went camping over Memorial Day Weekend with the Yeo's, we made it through my sister's wedding, now it is time to bring on summer!

Since we were so busy the last couple of months we decided to take it easy in June. We had reservations for Grand Haven the weekend school gets out, but we decided we are going to take it easy so we cancelled them. I am looking forward to bonfires, relaxing, and working around the house.

I was looking in Keegan's mouth last night, she was saying that her gums hurt, and what do I find but a new tooth coming in was down low where her adult tooth still is. Now I am getting worried. Her teeth are so crowded and she has only lost two baby teeth...luckily we are off to see the dentist this month and I am pretty sure they are going to start pulling some of those baby teeth to make room for the adult ones.

I am looking forward to summer. We have a couple trips planned so far and we shall see what else comes our way. This weekend I am planning on relaxing around the pool all weekend!!!

I will try to post some pics from the wedding and Keegan's sofball soon.
