The Rest of the Week and Weekend

Thursday I met a friend of mine that was putting Lilly's name on her diaper covers. They turned out so cute!! After that I rushed to Hot Springs to visit. It was my Papaw's birthday and we were taking him to dinner. I'm so fortunate to still have him in  my life and hopefully he will be able to meet our child one day.
Friday I didn't have summer school and planned to get up and get moving early. Well.... That didn't happen. I slept until 11:00!!! I don't ever sleep late much less until lunch. It was a stormy day so my pool plans were canceled. I did manage to visit with a friend and her daughter for a little while. I clean house some and did laundry.

Saturday morning I was up early to run to the grocery store. I needed a few things for banana pudding, my usual Forth of July dessert. Hatfield wanted to ride and since it was early, not hot, and I only had a few things to get I let him.
Lilly is content laying around doing nothing all day! They are so opposite.
Saturday night we went over to Brett and Mindy's for the usual Forth of July cookout. We were home before dark and got to watch ALL of the neighbor's fireworks. I counted at least five different houses that we could see. There is a plus to living on a hill.

Sunday morning I started on floors. My goal this summer to finally put the topcoat of wax on them. I wanted to do it when the ceiling was getting fixed and the furniture was out, but I spent too much time repairing a few places.  I started with rooms that didn't require moving much furniture; our closet, both bathrooms, laundry room, and office. I love the shine that it gives them. I just hope it last for a while.
The baby birds finally took flight Sunday afternoon.
I dig up a few of my Papaws Cannas Thursday and finally planted them along the drive Sunday afternoon while Kev weed-eated. I'm hoping they will provide a little privacy from the neighbors gate.
We finished the weekend with Sushi for dinner!! Overall it was a very productive and great weekend! One more week of summer school and four weeks off.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Floating the Caddo River

We floated the Caddo River with some friends Saturday. The scenery was beautiful and the water was flowing nicely. It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
