Heaven... A child's view of it...

I love my niece Amberlynn, she is full of life and questions and I love how she looks at the world.
We were driving around today and she was just talking and talking like she usually does and half of the time we have no idea what she is talking about, so we just listen and say yeah and ah uh in the right places. So anyways today Amber says " I bet daddy is having fun in heaven" and Amanda replies " yeah I bet he is", so Amber just starts telling us how fun heaven is going to be because her bubba said that there are lollipops in heaven and there are swimming pools and they will get to go swimming everyday, well not everyday just during the summer.
I just wanted to cry because here is this 6 year old that has more faith in our God and in heaven then some adults. I love how children look at things, how the simplest things make them happy! Amanda took them outside a few nights ago in their PJ's and let them catch fireflies! How wonderful is that and she said that they were so happy!
So if heaven is anything like Amber says,well then I cant wait to get there and eat Lollipops and swim and maybe even catch some fireflies...

Housework...

OK I don't know what my deal is but I have been slacking in my house work! So Today after Thomas goes to work at Three, I am going to get my butt in gear and get this house back in working order! I don't know why I have been so lazy about it! I have been doing really good about keeping up with it. I am going to blame it on the summer! Yep that is it, It is the summer and I would rather be outside or out with friends then inside cleaning!

But I feel less stressed when the house is clean so I will stop whining and get it done, it wont take that long anyways...

I hope everyone is have a great day!

My weeekend....

So this weekend was a really good on,which I really needed since last week sucked since I only got one day to spend with my love. So starting on Friday my mother and sister and I went to do some summer shopping for them. Let me just say my sister is so hard to shop with, she is very much at that age where she is trying to figure out who she is wanting to be, so that is why my mom brings me because I am the only one who can get her to try things on and wont kill her ( unlike my mom LOL). What is funny I was nothing like her, I was easy to shop with well to a point, my problem was more the fact that I couldn't find things that fit right, I am very short and I am heavy so you know it is so easy to find clothes!! Anyways she got some really cute things including a Jumper!! I know are we back in the eighties??? Crazy thing is she look super cute in it!!

Then I found some awesome jeans at a store that I didnt think I would be able to fit in, even there their plus size, but OMG they fit AWESOME!! I am going to go get some before my trip to Vegas in august, and they have some other cute stuff I want to try on to see how they fit.
Then we went to dinner over at Olive Garden and called it a night, mom was tired and her back was killing and my sister was on her last nerve!!!
Then on Saturday we had a very lazy day. Which was pure bliss! Later that night we went to TGIF with the bestie for dinner and then we hit the mall for a bit.

The bestie wasn't feel to good and my son was being a major brat!!! You say terrible 2 pshh whatever it terrible 3's!!!! So we decided that is was time to go home.
We got home and put him to bed and the hubby went up to the store so we could have some drinks and watch From Paris with Love, which by the way it was a great movie!!

Yesterday was also another good day. We were having the bestie and the kiddos over so we mowed and cleaned up the back yard. We decided that we should get a pool for them well at first we were thinking a slip and slide but our backyard has to many twigs so we didn't think that would be the best idea!!
So we went to the store and got food and the pool and then we got some lawn chairs which just made me as happy as could be! Been wanting them for a while now! We only got two but we are going to go back and get a couple more and they have a small table to go with them. So last night after everyone left we sat outside in our new chairs and just chit chat while Elijah played in his sand box. Then we realized that he was getting all bit up, so we came in and threw his little butt in the shower. Then 9:00 p.m came around and it was bed time for him.
We rented Shutter Island and wow that was a great movie not what I thought at all but it was really really good, so if you get a chance you should rent it!
