kindergarden

My baby goes to kindergarden tomorrow!  I'm so sad!!  i will take some pics tomorrow.  I asked Brandon if I can take a picture of him getting on the bus, since it's the last year he will be getting on a bus the first day of school.  But I got shot down pretty quick!  :)

My cute blondie

I know it's been awhile since I posted.  My boys have all been out of town at my sisters house.  I guess I don't have any good stories when they aren't here.  I will leave you with some cute pictures of Connor and Devin that Cassy sent me the other day.

Lady Antebellum

<>

Kristi, Andrea, Myself

The Lady Antebellum concert on Wednesday night was AWESOME!!! A lot of it had to do with the girls I was with. My friends Andrea and Kristi came up for the big event, and I couldn't have been more excited. Kristi was one fo my first friends I ever made when I moved from Wyoming to Illinois. I have been friends with her for 24 years! WOW, that's a long time! When I was in 8th grade, Andrea and her family moved in next door. We have been besties ever since. It was great spending time with the girls, and hearing all about their lives.

Once the concert started, we turned into teenage girls all over again. Yelling, screaming, singing a long (myself poorly).

After the concert, we went to Rustys so Andrea could get her Lusty Rusty. It was a fun night. In the morning, we went to IHOP for breakfast. I had to work at 1:30 so they left shortly before that. Brandon wanted to go back down to Illinois for a couple of weeks so Kristi was nice enough to take him. I heard what a huge help he is when he's there, so I don't mind letting him go. I do miss him already though.

Tomatos and Lady Antebellum

This year for my birthday I wanted a Topsy Turvy tomato planter. Adam got me one, even though he hates tomatos. He then decided to plant peppers so we can make salsa. This is our first year doing this. I have never grown anything to eat before, call me a dork but I'm excited!!

Tomorrow Andrea and Kristi are coming up and we are going to attempt to go to the Wausau Fair to watch Lady Antebellum. This has been in the works for a couple of months. I hope the weather works out, and I hope we get there in time to get a good spot. It is a free concert, so it's going to be bananas! I love all my friends to pieces, and don't know what I would do without them. I wish Jessica could go with us, but it is Ryleys birthday.

5 days!!!

Five days until Andrea and Kristi get here!!! We are going to go to the Lady Antebellum concert in Wausau on August 4th. I love my Andrea and Kristi. Kristi was one of the first friends I made when I moved to Illinois in 4th grade. And in 8th grade when Andrea moved in next door we became fast friends. I can't wait until Wednesday!!!!

Your love keeps lifting me higher.

That is the song that is stuck in my head!!! I went to a bra party with Heather and Jessie. I wasn't too sure about what to expect, but since Heather raves about the bras, I decided to go.

Ok, this might be tmi for all you blog reading guys out there (If there are any guys who read my blog, heck I don't even know if there are any women who read my blog...) Heathers mom is the consultant, she first sizes you for a bra, then gives you little star stickers to stick on the outside of your shirt where your nipples are in your current bra. Then you change into one of their bras, put your shirt back on and look at the diffrence. I tell you what, I can't wait to get my bra!!! It made me feel like a whole new woman. I even booked my own party so I can reap some of the benifits. I can't wait!! Next, I'm going to get the shapewear. I told Adam tonight, I am going to look smokin at Saras wedding. HAHA!! When I get my bra, I will do a before and after pictures for you, because I know you all want to look at my knockers!! HAHA!!! On that note, until next time...

Empty Nesters

So, Adam and I are pretty much empty nesters this week. My parents took the younger boys camping in Tomahawk and Brandon being 15 years old is home as little as possible.

Today, Brandon went out and got job applications. It makes me proud on one hand that he wants a job, but sad on the other hand that he's old enough to go get a job.

Today, we had 2 huge trees knocked down in our back yard. Jeremy, Amber, and Audrey came over to watch the madness! After the trees got cut down Heather came and got the girls and myself and we went to the Amherst fair. I love spending time with Heather and the girls, just we wern't so busy so we could do it more. I think it will be one tilt-a-whirl ride I will never forget. Amber was hillarious!!
