but we got a lil mini hike in.

Oh look.. Lexi's on her phone (again) lol

I know. my phone camera isn't the best.. but it was all I had :)

our country's b-day was a blast!

weekend plans and my kitteh

what's everyone got planned for the weekend?
the celebration of our Country's birthday?

I stopped last night and strolled around a local nursery. I loved it!
Every little plant begged me to take it home.
I ended up with four different colored snapdragons, some little purple flowers and some pink somethings..
I have to go back!
pics will be posted soon.
dragonflies were everywhere.. following us around. I loved it!
I told Lexi (the oldest rockstar teenager) they were fairies. she agreed.
awesome!
ah..
the little things that make us happy.
We are going to the inlaws for a bbq on Sunday.. yay!
I truly adore my inlaws. it is rare from what I hear. lol.
they have always accepted and loved me and I feel the same.

when my dad died, Josh (the hubs) said something that I will never forget.
I was sad that me n my sis have no parents now.
he said. "You can borrow mine"
awwww, huh?
so sweet.
and he is right.
they have always been more than just inlaws.
*sigh*

anyways..
Saturday me and the kidlets are going to hide in the mountains and play for a while. I can't wait to embrace nature and clear my head. find some peace..all that good stuff.. I may even get started writing something. I totally flopped June writing with the group. sorry kids. I just didn't have it in me..
then we are having a bbq on Monday.. with us and prolly a bunch of teenagers.
Tuesday we took the day off work to have family day at Boondocks. I can't wait!
We are going to have a great weekend..
I will have tons of pics next week
cuz yanno I'm addicted!

Have a great weekend all!
