Where to start

I'm one of those people who instead of tackling a big job one piece at a time just gives up because the task looks too big to accomplish. Then I procrastinate doing said job until it's out of control and then I kick myself for not having done it. Does that make sense? Anyway, that's kind of how the blog is right now. I have sooo much to talk about I always think it's too big of a task for right now so I'll do it later. In the meantime things keep happening and it just adds to my list of things I want to blog about until I don't even know where to start! So I'll start right here, right now with a quick rundown of the summer. We had a great time on our trip and my next post will be pictures from our adventure. The kids did great traveling and it was a great way to start off summer.

We have 2 chickens - Lu lu & Bellamara (Betsy had to be returned because she was too loud) and yesterday we got a new kitten - Brownie - while we were returning Betsy to the fed store. We have been swimming like crazy in the pool since we got home from Texas. Ben is almost completely swimming now and loves to jump off the diving board - he is such a crazy 2 year old! We've pretty much been staying in our pj's until we put on our swim suits. Then we come in all tired out, Ben goes down for a nap and the kids watch a movie and we have a nice quiet late afternoon until dinner. I'm trying to potty train Ben so he's been commando for the last couple of days. They jury is still out on if I'm going to continue with it or give up...

Anyway, lots of pictures forthcoming - stay tuned!
