Back and Rollin'

We had a good vacation, but are certainly back into the full swing of things once again. Kiely got a chance, as I mentioned before leaving, to play a decent amount of golf. I didn't end up reading either of my books I brought, but I did get plenty of relaxing just being away from the usually daily chores and responsibilities. Unfortunately, I forgot the camera, so we don't have a single picture : ( but hopefully next time I'll remember.

As far as our yard, it is looking great! Kiely finished one large section of our retaining wall that is holding the patio. It's a lot of manual labor, but now that he's done one section, I think the rest will come a little easier and hopefully faster (fingers crossed). Our summer is quickly running out and we really want a chance to use it before the weather changes. By-the-way, you are all invited to come for a barbeque once we're done. : )

And just for tid-bits sake, there are a few rather major "adjustments" coming to our lives that we will be sharing soon once it's all set.

Until then, Blessings!

Here we goo....Relax!

Oy, Oy, Oy! Why is getting ready for vacation such an ordeal? We are leaving tomorrow morning and I am only half way on my way to having everything packed up...and yet, I'm on the computer updating my blog... I think it's more relaxing than thinking about all the things I still have to do. Never-the-less, they always get done!

So, we are heading out to Redmond, Oregon for a relaxing week of golfing, golf, and more golf (at least for my husband) Hopefully, the boys will be entertained enough to spend a lot of time at the pool and I'll get a chance to read some books and not worry about cleaning house or doing laundry. I'm sure in the years to come, our vacation activities will expand as the kids get older and are interested/can do more things. But for now, I'm satisfied with reading a few good books. Then, when we get back, it's back to the yard. I'll post some pics when there is a little more progress to report. : ) Blessings to all!
