Today is dear hubby's b-day, he is 38!!! Today was a school day for us, it was kinda rainy out, but hot. We had dinner with my mom at our local diner tonight. I sat outside this evening and watched the boys play flag football. My dd got an MP3 player, with her b-day money from May, so she is really liking it. It's not my favorite thing for her to have, to me it's another "gadget", but she is very happy, and I know she will not abuse using it to much. Tonight we sat outside and watched some amazing fireworks, wow, these people never stop around here.

All in all it was a good day! I'm posting some pictures from our vacation last year to Hawaii. I just learned about all this computer and picture stuff, so I'm having fun with it, and learning.

This is my first post on my blog. I am still learning how to do this, and I'm not real good at this computer stuff. Today was a hot day here in Missouri. We started the day off by getting the house in order, and cleaned up. Dad and the kids worked outside, mowing and doing different things. Our backyard area is pretty much completed except for the planting. This is a picture of it. We just finished up football camp this past week.

We all went swimming for a bit today, and sat outside. My mom came over while we were out there. We ended up taking her out to dinner, and going to look in a pet shop for fun. Were trying to talk her into getting a dog. I really like this blog site, I have tried others, and they were just to difficult for me to figure out. Dh went to bed early, he gets up extra early for work tomorrow. My mom took the kids to walmart to buy dh a b-day present, tomorrow is his b-day, he'll be 38. They bought him one of those small refrigerators. Well I'm off for the evening.
