Not Me! Monday

Here we go again. I have not been having a battle of wills with my husband over who would pick up the trash that was left on the back deck after our 4th of July party. I definitely did not let trash sit scattered all over my deck because he said he would pick it up (prior to the dogs tearing 3 sacks of trash apart).

I have not broken my own rule of showering every day simply because I was too busy too shower. And I discovered that my hair looks clean and cute in pigtails! Not me!

I am not incredibly behind on my work. I have also not wished that school was starting again and have definitely not wanted to throttle my daughter on more than one occasion! August cannot come fast enough!

Be sure and link to MckMama with your Not Me! Monday post!

I did not take the kids for ice cream and french fries at 5:00, which is way too close to dinner time. I also did not seriously consider ordering more fries, I LOVE Braum's french fries!

My bedroom is not still filled up with all of the furniture I shoved in their to clean up the house before our 4th of July party. I am also not dreading opening up some of the closets in the house that I shoved more stuff into.

When my sister in law came over to lay out in the pool and I told her I would stay inside and get stuff done, I was not weak and ended up going outside to join her and also get some sun. There were definitely not too many "and"s in that previous sentence. And I did not get a little too much sun!

At our 4th of July party, my awful, horrible, and mean spirited neighbor (yes, she's that bad!) did not call the cops on us for doing fireworks. The police men that came did not think she was as pathetic as we do and felt bad for us having to live next to her!

Thanks for reading!

Lately

Well, I haven't been doing very well at keeping the blog updated on our daily happenings and have had a 1,000 things I wanted to blog about, but then forget or never get around to it, so here are some highlights from the summer so far.

May was a super busy month for us. Here are some pictures from what all we did that month!

Cadence had her dance recital.
My aunt Joyce got married and The Princess was her flower girl.

Callie, Ben's cousin also got married.


We celebrated Mother's Day at my house with my mom and sister.

Ben and I took my sister and her friend with us to see Ben Folds at the Cain's. My sister has loved Ben Folds since I introduced her to him 5 years ago but has never gotten the chance to see him. For those of you who don't know my love of Ben Folds, I walked down the aisle to his song, "The Luckiest".
My friend Holly also had her first bridal shower in May, for her upcoming wedding in July.
We actually had even more events in May than just this, but these are the important ones (and the ones I have pictures of!). May was truly one of the busiest months we had ever had. The Princess also graduated from Pre-K and had a Spring Fling at her new school. Now its time for me to work on a post about what we did in June. And get ready for the 4th of July party we are having today!
