Schools out for Summer

School is out for the summer in my household. The girls' last day was yesterday. We have been going and going and now today we don't have much going on so we are jsut gonna hang out in the pool. My daughter had a ballet recital on Sunday. She did really well. All the kids did really well, and they all looked cute in their costumes.

They had the really little girls in cute little sailor outfits and little dog costumes. They were so adorable. They also had the bigger kids do some jazz numbers that was really good. I have a video but my computer is being stubborn and not letting me upload it. Argh !!! oh well I will figure it out. Hope you all are enjoying your summer so

When we moved into this house they had cut these rose bushes down to nothing. Last year they bloomed but only had one or two roses. This year they bloomed like crazy.

I have been going non-stop for a couple of days now. It always seems that the busiest time of the year is when the kids are getting ready to get out of school. They had field day on Friday and end of the year girl scout ceremonies and parties today. I also have ballet recital to help with for next week. But it looks like by next week all the madness should subside and then the wonderful days of summer with kids running everywhere with wet swimsuits and sticky hands.

How do you get a cold?

My oldest daughter had a camp out with the girl scouts at Six flags. I had to go up there and get here yesterday, as the leader that brought her up there had to go somewhere, so couldn't bring her back. So I figured if I am going to drive an hour to go get her might as well stay and have day at the park with her. I made sure she had sunscreen on and I put some on, but my swimsuit went lower in the back then I realized and got a little sunburned. Whoops!! I woke up last night with a stuffy nose and coughing. How do get a cold sitting in the sun? I know you can get a cold from anywhere it just seems kinda odd. But as I was sitting in the sun I figured out the kind of vacation that I want to take. One with jsut me and my husband staying at a hotel and sitting on the beach doing nothing. I never really got to go on a honeymoon and every vacation we have taken was to go see family and with the kids its almost more work for me. So what would your dream vacation be?
