So Very Busy

I've been running like a crazy lady. My calendar is full of scribbles that can't find enough room to be entirely legible. With the kids getting older I feel like I'm entering my next phase: the let's set the record for how many times the garage door opens and shuts each day phase.

A quick overview of the kids' activities:

Emma- Annie Jr (Mon & Thurs), Activity Days (Tues), Tennis (Thurs), plus homework and flute practice

Eli- Scouts (Thurs)(exact same time as tennis), Baseball (2 games each week-Mon-Thurs, 1 practice Sat), homework

Holly- Soccer (Mon practice, Sat game)

Sadie- thank goodness only preschool but can't wait for swimming lessons coming up. Oh and both little girls have playgroup together.

Then I have Mutual Wednesdays (as does Dana- we switch off going) and Dana heeded my advice (nagging) to be Ass't Coach for Eli's baseball team. He's been stressed at work the past couple weeks coordinating an event he's in charge of each year. Today was the event and it was such a smash hit he got to come home early.

And he brought little things home for the kids which he does every chance he gets. Today was balloons and cake as it was Best Western's 65th birthday.

Me, Dana, Scout, and Sadie walked to pick up the kids from school and then surprised them by telling them we're going to "Ocean Blue".
Then they asked Dana to play "Monster" and they ran around squealing for awhile.

And in some other really great news...guess what these are???
PEACHES!!! It's so exciting.

I love my garden. I even bought a couple gnomes at Target today to keep my herbs company.
