Happy Hump Day!!

And so far its a good one!!! :) 

First: Sammy Slept All Night!!! hip hip hooooray!!!  Gus didn't but that's ok b/c he goes right back to sleep.. Sammy wants to stay up & play.

Second: I weighed in today @ the same thing I've been weighing for 3? weeks! time to get consistant w/the exercise!!!!!!!!

Third: speeking of exercise... last night I took both dogs for .5 mile walk then headed out on my own quiet mile. I decided to walk their .5 mile in reverse so I'd do the majority of the walk w/the sun in my face. GLORIOUS!!!  I ended up doing 2 full miles in total last night then came home& ran the north stretch of fence w/Sammy 6 times :) hmmmm maybe that's why he slept so well LOL

Fourth: I picked lettuce from my own garden last night! WOW!!!!!!! I washed it up & its chilling for lunch YUMMMMMM

Fifth: THE SUN IS SHINING so we are planning to walk this morning & probably play on the elementary school playground! YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Sixth: first childcare event on Friday.. a bit nervous! but more excited :)

Seventh: crazy Saturday planned... City Wide Garage Sales, Farmer's Market, canning class in WDM, Sammy's puppy check up, father's day bonfire/weinie roast @ mom's for supper, birthday party invite to the south, wanting to visit friends & socialize the pups. thinking Sunday will be a big ole nappin day :)

offfffffffffffffffffffffff weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee goooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

happy friday!

another busy weekend ahead!

we definatly earn our weekends@ the lake w/all that we pack into our weekends @ home :)

last night we worked in the garden :) THAT IS SUCH A JOY to see what is growing!! loooooooooooove it!!! cukes, green beans, tomatoes, lettuce (that I think is close to picking), radishes, onions, a few corn, & tim's pepper plantation! fuuuuuuuuuunnnnn!  Last night I also broke down & bought some wave petunias from walmart(ick) for hanging baskets on the deck.  I filled 2 baskets, a funky antique metal pot/pitcher, a small stone pot & a medium bucket w/pink & white petunias & a couple of german ivy's I hadn't planted yet from the nursery. 

tonight I just have to finish tidying the deck for the Tastefully Simple party tomorrow afternoon & it will be all ready to go! thinking we might even take time to do some garaging in Winterset after our Osceola Farmer's Market visit TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!

our summer events are coming togther! YAY! that is such a relief. I was afraid I'd put some work into it & it would flop. (I always think that with everything I do)

small group of 4 today so we are off for a walk this morning & some more productivity to check off that list this afternoon during nap time :)

what are your weekend plans??
