Life Update

 It's been awhile.

Let's take it back to December:

-Ginger had emergency surgery.  She ate one of the little dogs toy and it ended up getting stuck. 

She was miserable.

In the Kitchen

This menu was inspired by the heat wave and not wanting to turn the oven on higher than 350.  It was a week of fun meals as we like to call them.   Plus I have a funny cooking story at the end.

We enjoyed BBQ pulled pork, corn, biscuit, and coleslaw

July Recap

 I didn't manage to take many pictures throughout July.  July was a crazy weather month for us.  We had a lot of rain and thunderstorms along with some high heat.  We learned to swim early in the day to miss the 4pm storms.

We wanted to watch the fireworks from the pool, but all we could do was hear them.  So the kids ran to the front and watched from the road.

Lately May and June edition

 We're just going to jump in and start documenting our summer, which officially began on May 7th.  I've actually had the pictures in this post sitting here waiting for me to add context.  If you'd ask my kids what I do, they'd say I'm busy.  Boy, am I!  It has been one busy summer and although we've already started our new school year, my busyness is not over.  I don't see an end.  But, I'm learning to slow down on the projects and shift my focus.

We decided to test the kids with standardized testing at the end of last school year.  With us switching things up I wanted to see if we were still on track or if we needed to shift things around.
