My garden. I have loved having tasty veggies this year!

the pool.....it is nice, refreshing, and makes my boys smile

Love----it covers a mulitude of sins..........................................

Today was hectic but good. I worked from the time I got up until late this afternoon. I got a lot done for the LOOM. I am so excited about everything. It seems to really be coming together. We can't wait to get everything finished so that we can be open for business. Check out our website and also check our facebook out for upcoming open houses and our GRAND OPENING also!

I also made a cake today. Lisa, I am so sorry it melted on the way...LOL! I am glad you guys liked it. I can't believe Jake is 14. BoyI am getting OLD!!!

I cooked dinner tonight. I cooked some fresh green beans and fried zucchini from our garden with our chicken. It was so good. I love me some fresh veggies lately!

Tonight I took the boys to the pool. I promised them if they let me get my work done this morning I would treat them with a night swim. They had fun with their friends and it gave me the opportunity to clip my coupons. LOL!

Came home to do more dishes...LOL! Then I had some snuggle time with my sweet Bleeze. We snapped some pics... I look a mess....Don't laugh...Can't believe I am even posting pics of me with no makeup! LOL! So for now... I am going to bed! I am soooo tired! I have a ton of work this week to do! Good night!

Sweet Sunday...

Captured this picture with my cell phone leaving church Today. I was thought it was so sweet!!! Church rocked today. I have missed being there the past two Sundays. The first week we were on vacation and the next week I went to church with my Dad for Father's Day. I am so glad that we are doing the book of Psalms. It is one of my all time favorites! This is going to rock this summer!

After church we went to Southern Fried Green Tomatoes with the Wards. It was so yumm! I LOVE their biscuits. Not something you need to eat when trying to loose weight but nevertheless, it is still so yummy!

Spent the afternoon doing some work for the LOOM! Then I also made a run to Target. I took Bleeze with me because he had some cash burning a hole in his pocket. He is so precious. I just love to hang out with him. He makes me smile all the time. I will share some of his funnies later!
Eli decided to hang out with hid Dad on a job and help dump his truck. Tommy had to work some today so that stinks!

We had pizza for dinner when Tommy was through working....now for SLEEP!

Super Saturday...

Today was pretty awesome. I actually slept in and then we headed to the pool with the Ward girls. The boys had so much fun. It was nice to just chillax! I enjoyed hanging out with Cindy and Dean too! THANKS FOR LUNCH CINDY!!! I will pay you back! After some chill time we went to the grocery store and then we headed home. The boys were ready to play outside some. The boys played outside and I made a pretty yummy dinner if I say so myself. We had stir fry with all the fresh veggies from my garden and I made Chinese Cole slaw too! It is so good.

After dinner I visited with my family for a bit. Eric and Jessica are headed back to NC and to the beach for a week so I will have to wait to see them again for another week. Pretty soon they will be back home to TX and then Lord only knows when we will see them.

Enjoy the pics from the day...got to get up early for church in the morning.

Fab Friday...

Friday was pretty fabulous! LOL! Started out with Carnival Show that Brandi and I HAD to attend. LOL!!!!!!! Brandi girl, our Friday morning has to go in the record book for one of our crazy adventures. That was something else!

Then I was off to run errands and then pick up some lunch for Brandi, her girls and my boys (and don't forget me) We had a fun afternoon working on one of our last cakes. We still do some but Sophisticakes is going out of business due to the LOOM! It is going to take our cake baking time! The cake is the cake above and it is precious! It is for a Mad Hatter party! We had fun making it.

Brandi and I managed to get some dinner with her two hubby's and kiddos at good old El Jalisco at Five Forks! I had not been there in AGES!!!! It was so yummy to have my Arroz Con Pollo! It was really good with that Margarita! Then we were off to deliver the cake and have some fun! Let me say, there are some strange things out late at night. Just check the local Walmart or the line at Krispy Kreme for the Hot-N-Now!!! LOL!!! We had a good time!

Came home to this picture tonight..... my two precious boys and the dog....sound a sleep on the couch....precious! (Eli's catching flies with his mouth) LOL!

So thankful for a FAB FRIDAY!!!!!!

Thursdays Update

Today was such a fun day. I did some work this morning and then I took my sweet Bleeze to ToysRUs to use his gift cards he got for his birthday. He was so sweet. Eli spent the night with Nanny Mary last night so he missed out on the trip. He had such a hard time deciding what he wanted to get. We literally looked at EVERYTHING in the store. He chose a grocery cart with pretend boxed food and a Charlie Brown and Snoopy Shirt playing baseball that says, "I am a Catch". How cute is that! He enjoyed the ride when we left the store too.

After Toys R Us we headed to the mall. We had fun looking around and enjoyed meeting my brother, sisterinlaw, and cousin for lunch in the food court. Of course no trip to the mall is complete without a cookie from the Great American Cookie Co. (I did not have one, but Bleeze enjoyed his with the M&M's on it).

Then I was off to take Bleeze to spend some time with Nanny Mary too. I dropped a sleepy boy off for some fun and then I headed to the Simpsonville Chamber of Commerce to sign up the LOOM and then to the LOOM to meet with a future bride. GREAT AFTERNOON!

I also got to have a date with my man. We went to Chili's and then back to the mall. (Wow the mall twice in one day) I actually bought very little today. Just one dress for me (on sale of course and the boys some shirts and shorts) We went back tonight because I saw some shorts for Tommy and he went to check them out and then he bought me another dress. How sweet! We picked the boys up and headed home for baths and of course some pretend grocery shopping.

I have baking a cake tonight. I am still not finished but I am going to have to get up around 6 and go to the store to buy more baking supplies. We need a ton of layers and I ran out. It is storming right now and I do not want to go out in it.

Busy day tomorrow starting bright and early, so I am signing off and going to bed...Good night!
