Ahh Summer! My little buddy is sure enjoying our beautiful weather. The hose and "his garden" are two of his favorites! We have had a great week. Starting with Father's Day which was going to "Hayden's Cabin" and fishing. Daddy caught a 19 1/2 bass, he was pretty excited. Mommy got a terrible back ache from the boat! We had fun with lots of fish biting at our hooks. Monday Hayden went with Papa Smith for their weekly time together. Hayden loves playing at Papa B's house. He has a "big hill" (handicap ramp) that Hayden runs up and down on. I made lasagna in my new Pampered Chef stoneware(buy one, they are awesome, perfectly set lasagna ever time, i promise!). Tuesday we were lucky enough to go on a picnic with Papa Moe and Brandon. Luckily we were at the park by our house, since we needed to go back 3 times. Wednesday i cleaned and cleaned, i just want to get rid of stuff! I also got new dishes since i am sick of mine and wanted something new. I found these dishes at the amazon! I only paid $27.99 for them, they went up to $79.99 the next day. Today we went on errands day. Up to Duluth we went which in its self is an adventure these days. Bridges being fixed, detours, machinery falling over. But its still weird that i am not working, i miss it already. The week ahead brings camping on Elephant Lake and Patty and Mark's wedding. Jason is so excited! lol. Hayden looks very handsome in his outfit for the wedding and lucky Jase gets to wear a tux! Don't forget to check out the new pictures too! I am just going to have 1 album for each month and will add almost daily. My poor computer can't hold my pictures so i am uploading them all to my online albums instead of only a few. I use to just upload my favorites in case something happened to my computer i'd have the best ones. Have a great weekend! Enjoy the summer!

Okay this is quickly becoming a photo blog! Which i really am okay with. Here is my new favorite picture of my Hayden.

We had lots of fun on my first official day off for the summer. Emily, Hayden and I went to Park Point for their huge rummage sales. I bought a glass pitcher, a milk bottle with a plastic Bridgeman's cap( did you know i collect milk bottles? Look next time in my house they are in the kitchen lining my shelves.) and a book. I also had a very good boy! He was a super shopper not asking for one thing! I loved it, so i bought him a slushy without him knowing where i was going. He kept saying "Oh thank you Mommy, thank you so much for my slushy" cutie! I also fell in a hole breaking Emily's antique cake stand that she bought(that is the shorten version) The long version is, I was walking with a pop in one hand the 5 pound cake stand in the other, Emily was pushing Hayden, i apparently went into la la land and the next thing i know i heard the glass shattering. I then realized i had my camera on the other hip turned to save the camera, skinned my knee, lost both shoes and still had the now just pedestal of the cake stand in my hand. I don't know how i fell or how i didn't get cut from all that glass, but i am fine. Felt HORRIBLE about the cake stand but i bought her cheese curds to make up for it. Camera is fine too! I didn't spill a drop of my drink either!


After rummage saleing we hit up two Salvation Army stores. At one they had a bunch of kids games for $0.49. I got Hungry, Hungry Hippo and Don't Break the Ice. All the pieces were in both too. They both are a huge hit for the Hay!


We had Brennah's birthday party today too. She turned 7! I can't believe it. I bought her gift from the Pumpkin Patch i need an excuse to shop there since Hayden is well set for clothes.


Happy Father's Day to all the fathers out there too! I think the father in our household has requested Golf if the weather holds up.


Happy Summer too!

We are home!

We had a great time in Arizona, Sarah and Casey's baby is beautiful. He is a very good baby too! But boy did we miss our Hayden. He is so sweet when we got home. I didn't get to see him until Friday after work. He was very lovable and snuggly, he actually fell asleep on me. I was kind of a lump all weekend. Hayden too. We both were tired and went to bed early.

I Can't Believe it's June!

Reasons why we love June:

  • Mommy is almost done with work for the year
  • Beach time is coming
  • PBS has kids shows on in the morning!(they usually have educational programing for schools on from 9 to 1)
  • Apple Blossoms
  • Having the windows open
  • Parties(Graduation, Weddings etc!)

Why do you love June??? Or do not love it???

We had a good weekend. On Sunday my mom's Relay for Life Team had its annual Pancake Breakfast. Hayden and I helped for a while and ate yummy pancakes! Then my boys went golfing at Madgee(Haydens most requested place to go these days) on the hot day! What a great way to start June. I mowed the lawn. It was hot but i got it done and boy do i hate our hill! Then Jason's friend Jon invited us to a Huskey's game in Duluth. He had tickets for the Dog Kennel which is a big fenced off area with picnic tables and all the food and pop/beer you want. Free tickets=Free Beer and Free Food! We kind of had crazy weather but oh well. Hayden and I sat under the condiments counter to stay dry. Hayden got a foul ball too! He was VERY excited and couldn't wait to show Brandon. We brought his baseball glove and a whiffle ball which was the greatest idea! It kept him occupied for a long time. Jon also threw the first pitch of the game. Jon in the manager at Arby's in West Duluth, check them out! Its a brand new store! Jason and i have gone up there a couple of times. Thanks Arby's!

***This post was written on Sunday, May 25th!We of course got to the airport early, as always. We try to be late and we can't! So anyways today we hit the road at about 9 dropped Hayden off and went on our merry way. We stopped for Cheese Curds in Abbottsford and hit up Lambeau Field for a quick visit and to buy a few things! I of course followed Jason around with the camera since Hayden wasn't there! He is very much less agreeable than Hayden! Oh well got some pictures anyways! Some extras from yesterday with Hayden. We had a fun day golfing(mini and regular), dinner at Grizzly's(Hayden picked, they have free popcorn!) and Mommy getting a nail in the tire(noticed at Walmart and they fixed it! I didn't even now they did stuff like that and for only $10!) Enjoy!
