God has blessed me much more than I could ever deserve. I hope to live my life in complete praise to Him--the One who has given me everything.

Work, work, work, work, work!!

In the past 2 days, we've mowed, mulched, put out flowers, trimmed hedges, planted 2 tomato plants, organized our garage, got ready for a yard sale, washed 2 cars, washed house off, painted table & chairs, cleaned 1/2 of the living room carpet, & kept up with laundry & dishes! Wow! That is a lot with a little one in tow! We are so satisfied with our accomplishments that we are taking today off to play! Yay! 

It is our last day to play before Ryan starts back to work & back to school. He has taken the last 2 weeks off from school since he was traveling with work & visiting family. It has been a nice break for us all. So, today...we head out to spend the time as a family. Since there's 60% chance of rain, I'm not sure what is in store...maybe the Apple store...heehee! We'll see.

I hope you all enjoy your day off! Thank a veteran or current military member. They are the reason you are free!

Another Zoo!!

Yesterday we were able to go to another zoo!! Sydney and I tagged along with Ryan to Evansville, IN. The Mesker Zoo there was very cool. Thanks to our Louisville Zoo membership, it was also free! :o) It was a workout, though. It was very hilly & with a stroller that = burning calories! Yay!

Sydney's favorite part of the Zoo was the bobos or monkeys. In Go, Diego, Go (her favorite show at the moment), there are 2 bobos that are "silly monkeys". Anyway, as soon as she saw the monkeys she started giggling and saying "bobos, bobos!" It was very cute & cool that she connected the two separate things! In this picture, she's pointing to the monkeys.

After the zoo we headed to Target. I don't go there very often because it's just not as much fun with a toddler who would much rather be running around than in a cart. She's good, don't get me wrong. Her time of willingness to sit in the cart usually runs out before I'm finished shopping. For me, Target is a place to take your time. Wal-Mart...I want in and out as fast as I can! Anyway, we were on a hunt for shorts. It ended up being much hotter than I thought it was going to be! Anyway, with an OK from the hubby, we headed on a hunt to find us cooler clothes.

After Target, we searched for a good park, but did not find one. We settled on the mall. I walked from end to end & then decided that the kids play area was a much better idea. After a while of playing, we decided to get some dinner. Thankfully for everyone, after dinner, Ryan was done. We were all exhausted and ready to head home. We left the house at 8:15 AM and returned at 9:20 PM. LONG day for all!! It was a ton of fun, though! Sydney was so much fun to play with and we both really enjoyed the day together. Thanks, Babe for letting us tag along!! Love you!

Little trip

Sydney and I have been lucky this week to be able to take a mini-vacation. We've been in IL & IN. Ryan, well, he's still working. :o( BUT he did get some GREAT company on his off time! In other words, we got to tag along on Ryan's business trip. Sydney and I have had a great time. We've shopped in 2 different malls, slept in, played in 2 different pools, and just spent time together. It has been so great for me because I have been able to play with my little girl 24/7. I haven't had to worry about laundry or cooking. I've just been able to be Mom. It's been nice.

Today we head back. It has been a very good trip & I have no complaints! Thanks, Ryan, for letting us tag along as much as you do!!
