I think this is so great! A true Southern Afternoon...
I took the kids and we went to the barn, and on our way out the lady who owns the property (about 70 years old) and her family were busily picking up sticks etc... So we decided to help them and while the kids picked up sticks the grandma and I were sitting on her old country porch sipping sweet tea (and she made homeade lemonade) and just chatted. She is precious! She said with her southern drawl"My it's hot, I think I should make us some lemonade" How cute is that???!!! Then she showed me all around her home, which has been in her family since the 1700's! That is amazing to me, that a family can be somewhere that long! Anyway, the home was originally very small, and had been added onto so many times, but was so cute and old and homey. She is sweet.
Today I am 38. Ouch, it sounds bad saying it, but it is better to get older than the alternative (death) so I guess I will keep getting older. When I am 40 I will go to Hawaii for a week and play. So anyone who wants to come is invited!
Mac is beginning to think that kindergarten is over, they have been out of school so long now. They will be out this week as well...So we are trying to keep busy at home. I am trying not to waste gas driving frivolous places. So....Entertainment is hard to come by.
We are going to make a big birthday cake today, so that will be fun. I love to bake with the kids, they think it is so exciting.
