Ma'Rose Baptism

Ma'Rose's baptism was today. I had to work yesterday so i rode with my parents & JR across the state today for her baptism. Although it was a loooooooooong day in the car it was well worth it to get to see my neice since i wasn't able to see her in the hospital.

They did the baptism during the service so we could only take pictures afterwards.

Helping CJ Move

Friday night after we got off work, we packed and loaded the girls and headed out of town. We had to stop and get a dolly from J and the trailer from Mr. C's dad's subdivision and we were on the road to help my sis CJ move from a duplex to her first home! She had closed on the house on Wednesday and her, JR and my parents had moved some things but we were going to help move the big stuff...you know that you need men for...Once we arrived, we got one load on the trailer and headed to her new home. We just unloaded the one load that night. On Saturday after we got breakfast for everyone, we were ready to begin the adventure again. B & the boys were coming to help. JR & my mom were entertaining the kiddos. They ended up taking them to Stephan's Park, which has a small lake with a beach and a spray ground. We were able to get everything from her duplex to her new house in 1 load, with 2 trucks with trailers by noon. After unloading the boys helped her with a few other projects. Late afternoon my mom & JR headed to KC as M&B were getting closer to having their baby and B & the boys headed home. We stayed for the evening and help CJ unpack a few more things and just relaxed and visited with her for the evening. This morning we were up bright and early and headed home by 7:00A. Once home we got started shucking, blanching and packing corn. We had done 25 quart size bags by noon, when i had to get the girls ready to go to a birthday party. By the end of the day, we had 40 quart bags to put into the freezer and corn to give away to people.

Whew---what a weekend!

Vi's Bday Party

This afternoon was Vi's birthday party. Mr. C was busy shucking, blanching, and packing corn, so the girls and i headed to the party.

Mommy Daze

Littlest C started at the sitters this week on Monday July 22, my first day back to work was not until Wednesday. I took advantage of having the 2 days off to myself. I cleaned the house on Monday. Tuesday I went for a long walk, then helped my sis JR unpack a few boxes, came home picked green beans, then headed to the parents pool and laid out for the afternoon and finished reading a book that i started last summer. Before picking up the girls, i spoiled myself with a pedicure. A nice few relaxing days before going back to work on Wednesday July 24th.

Family Fun Night

Tonight we had family fun night at AK &UB's. We went swimming, enjoyed some bbq and visited with family.

Girls Sleepover

Last night we kept the girls so that J could go and play his softball games and H is out of town on a girls weekend!

We went to the pool for a short swim and then picked up the girls and brought them home. We spent some time outside, bbqed and then spent the rest of the evening playing inside.

Mr. C had to work on Saturday morning, so it was just with and the girls. I made pancakes for breakfast and then we were heading outside to play when it started to rain, so we went back inside and busted out the play dough!
