It's been awhile... Marks down from having to miss everything. July is our month, and he isn't here. In the past couple weeks, we've been extremely busy. We've been back and forth of course to MS. Mark's parents have been to Texas to see their other son off to Afghanistan as well. You just thought your day was hard.
I just got through singing what was obviously the most horrible "ants go marching" song judging by the way my baby girl balled up and cried because I didn't sing it as good as daddy. I finished and managed to get a smile, now she's out. They've been playing nonstop with their friends, our neighbors, our family.. One in the same. She's wiped out. I'm so glad that she is spending these days so busy that they go by faster than had she been alone. Kyle too. He's had a rough couple weeks! That boy busted up the entire left side of his face on a 2 story water slide at Stacy's kids birthday party... Yeah, the same eye we just went and had checked out a while back after getting stabbed with a plastic sword. We go for X-rays Monday morning. I think he may be rethinking football this season. He says his face feels jiggly. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
We also celebrated Lexie's 5th birthday party, as well as my little brother and his fiancé buying their very own home! Our free time is spent with Ari and her kids now. We cook, eat, watch movies that our hubbies would rather not watch with us. We pretty much fill every gap, and cry over everything. Today we went to the soldier show, which is an entire concert/play put on by a group of talented soldiers. It was very good, and very emotional. I impulsively bought some bedroom furniture after that. Happened to come across it online, and they delivered it! I couldn't imagine trying with just Ari and myself, even with the help of our little tough guys.
Still with the busy day we managed to squeeze in a great home cooked meal which included Fresh cucumbers and squash cornbread thanks to the garden in Dani's backyard. We picked at least 7 this afternoon. I'm just glad all of her things are inside the fence, because my mini garden I had going in the front yard kept getting devoured by deer, along with whatever other plant may look appetizing. My flower bed is looking pitiful.
I'm finally off to bed now, was hoping by some chance my hubby's plans had changed and he would be able to talk on FB, but he's got a busy day. Pray for him, along with these other soldiers. Had our 4th blackout the other day, then news about a missing soldier here at Campbell found dead. Prayers for all of those families. So sad.
