The past few days

So I haven't posted in a few days...time to get at this again. I have to say that I love summer! Of course the kids drive me nuts and get into their little bickering matches, but overall I love the carefree days, the late nights, and the lazy mornings.
We've had so much fun since the last time I wrote.
Wednesday we went to the library. I love that my kids love books (my 10yr old actually read a book and then saw the movie and learned the lesson that we all eventually learn, the book is ALWAYS better than the movie LOL). We then went to lunch and bowling with friends. Oh that's another thing I love about summer - we get to see our friends on a much more regular basis.
Thursday we helped a friend, another military wife whose hubby was out of town and had a package delivered that was taller than her roof! It was a Step 2 playhouse for her girls so we hauled the pieces and stayed to make sure it got put together. We did a pretty good job! Us military wives are strong!!! After helping her we headed down to the State Park Pool. I love our local State Park! There is so much to do but in the summers, the pool is the place to be!
Friday my mom took the day off. We hung out with her for the day. I'm so happy to have her near, we lived FAR from her for almost 10 years so I treasure the fact that she is near. I love to see my kids with her! Friday night we went to the drive in. That's right, the drive in. What a hidden gem! We saw Toy Story 3 and Prince of Persia (that's the book my boy read and liked better than the movie).

So yeah, we've been pretty busy. Not too busy to miss the hubby though, the kids are dying to Skype with him (hopefully that will happen soon). We also sent the first of many packages to him on Friday. The lady at the Post Office comment that she couldn't believe that he was gone again!
