Summa, Summa, Summertime....

I just sit back and unwind...
Summer, Summer, Summertime...
I just sit back and unwind.

Name that song.

No? No Fresh Prince Jazzy Jeff Fans in the house.....
ah, brings back memories.

Can't believe that it's almost July.

I went walking with some girlfriends this morning and we were huffing and sweating at 9:30am. I got back in my car and the temp read 68.

I'm first to say that I've been quickly spoiled by the weather here.
Andy has to go back to Houston for work in July & August, and noticed that flights were cheap so he asked if I wanted to go.
You know why flights are cheap?
Because it's July & August. And you're flying to Houston.
Houston friends & family, miss you dearly, but I'll see you in September or October.

We've been doing a lot of relaxing around here lately.
Not much to blog about.
A little pool time.... (heated pool, by the way)
Lots of outside time
and a whole lotta friend time.

We also worked Kids Games at our church here, which is the equivalent of Vacation Bible School. I "job shared" with my friend, Emily, because we knew both of our little ones wouldn't be able to make it 5 days in a row in the nursery for 5 hours.
She sent me this picture of Graham that she found on the Kids Games site last night.

You think this was taken around 12:25pm?
Poor guy was exhausted.
Don't even ask me what he's wearing...I really couldn't tell you.

Tonight we had Travis & Stephanie over for Happy Hour, which turned into dinner, drinks & dessert.

We had so much fun.


I think it's safe to say the boys enjoyed it.

And Addison managed to get her cupcake even though her own dinner was barely touched because, well, I wanted to eat mine in peace.

This was the dessert Stephanie brought from Elizabethian bakery.
We are fans.
This was not dessert for all 4 of us by the way.
Individual sampler plates.
Good thing I'm getting serious about my New Years' Resolution starting tomorrow.
I'm serious.
It's been 6 months, I'm not playing anymore.
Or eating....
Or drinking.....
Not what I have been anyway.

All three kids had a blast!




Thanks for helping her up Tyler.


Great to have you back Vinings!!!
