Is it really almost July?

The last three weeks have flown by! We finally got our new furniture after sitting on lawn chairs in the family room for almost a month! The good thing was we didn't watch much tv during that time. We did enjoy having the cup-holders though! :) Since the furniture was in we decided it was time to start painting again. Ugh...

Sue had her first figure competition and did an awesome job. Joe and I were very proud and impressed with all the hard work she has done, as is everyone else. She plans to compete again in August. Last weekend was Maddison's 5th birthday so we spent Saturday in Fort Wayne with Joe's family before having a Father's Day dinner with Dad.

Joe is continuing his job as Lead Therapist at Community and getting more comfortable every day. I'm still working full time nights (sort-of! enjoying being cancelled every once in a while!) in the NICU. Some weeks I just can't stand the shift difference or the choice between sleeping or enjoying the day and getting things done, and then some weeks just go smoothly and work out great. It's amazing the difference of pushing a shift back by 4 hours!

We just booked our summer vacation for the mid-July to Clearwater Beach. Luckily I have a sister who has practically been to every hotel and city in Florida, so we followed some of her recommendations! :) Thanks Ash! Hopefully it wont be too hot while we are there and we can spend a week relaxing.




I caught my three boys getting a quick nap in the other afternoon!

Awesome weekend

It was an awesome weekend. Joe and I went to Wolcott Friday evening to watch Nicole's softball game. She got a couple great hits in and did a great job! Saturday was Colleens graduation party. Yay! She is heading to Huntington College in the Fall, I'm so excited for her. We got to see a lot of family and friends.
Then we headed to Nobelsville for the Rascal Flatts/Darius Rucker concert. I wasn't that excited about Darius Rucker but he did a great show. Rascal Flatts was awesome too, but we were further away then we had been in Fort Wayne, and at Verizon you always feel like you are dodging around people's heads no matter where you sit (or maybe just short people like me are!). It was funny to see all the different ages there. Sitting in the row infront of us was a mom with her probably 10 year old, next to a couple probably in their 80's! :)

While we were in Wolcott Friday evening sitting around a fire having drinks with Joe's parents we heard a kitten meowing like crazy. He eventually came out and hung around for a while and was the most adorable thing in the world! Joe is lucky we have already brought home a stray kitten once cause I would have taken this one in a heartbeat. He hung around all weekend, and tried to help Bob wash the car!




We went to a new sushi place this week recommended by Cindi and Mark, Tegry Bistro.... yuuuuummm.... I'm already looking forward to our next visit.


We are both already ready to get through the work week and for Sue and Steve's visit this weekend!
