Wow does time fly!  I can’t believe it’s been a while since the last post we made. It’s been busy around here with the kids and with all the school end of the year stuff plus stuff around the house. By the time the end of the day comes I’m so tired that I don’t want to do anything. 

We celebrated our 24^th Wedding Anniversary back on the 4^th.  We can't believe it's been that long.  Looking back over the years we have accomplished so much with raising a family and owning a house and doing maintenance with them.  Along with everything else our love for each other has grown much more than ever. 

We didn’t get to do anything that day to celebrate, we ended up at a banquet at the school.  We did manage to celebrate the following week.  Timmy took a vacation day on a Monday and we loaded the van with our bikes and headed to an off trail riding path.  It’s been about a year since we were last on a bike and boy where we out of shape.  It was a really nice flat path that runs along railroad tracks and nestled into a light wooded area that ends up going 6.2 miles. No, we did not do the whole thing, someone would have had to pick us up off the ground and we probably would need a new butt at that point. J  After that we went and had a late lunch/supper at an All You Can Eat Chinese Buffet. Yummy it was!  We ended wrapping up our day picking up some groceries from Walmart while we were already out that way. We also stopped at this place called Trans Market that has the most awesome prices on fresh fruit and vegetables.

We celebrated Emily’s Birthday back on the 8^th.  She is now 11 years old. She is growing up fast.  We had a family birthday cake and her favorite macaroni & cheese dinner.  We surprised her by taking her, Danni & her friend Rylee to the Drive-In Theater to see Madagascar 3 and Men in Black 3.  It has been a real long time since we went to a drive-in.  The best part was that it was only $15.00 for a whole car load for 2 movies!  And you could bring your own food in too.  The movies were awesome!  We are definitely doing this again with the other kids too.  You can’t beat the price.  If we paid full price going it would have cost us over $100 plus more for snacks.

Timmy’s been working on the siding on the outside of the house around our new door.  It is coming out so nice.  We can’t wait for all of it to be done.  Hopefully next year we can put on a new deck. We will have to wait and see what next year brings.
