Morning! It's just starting to rain outside, I think it's supposed to storm most of the day. Boo! We went to lowes after supper last night to get weed and feed for the lawn. I've noticed weeds in random spots in the back yard and our lawn could use some bulking up so I hope this helps. I went out and spread it after the girls were in bed. DH is at the dealership getting his oil changed and other than that I'm not sure what we will do. There are a couple of fun festivals but since they are outside I don't know that they will happen. Make sure and water regularly. We didn't, so all the seed we put down was wasted. This fall, we are going to use a 3 step plan and set sprinklers. Our house had a sprinkler system at one time, but over the years it wasn't maintained and some of the lines are cut. We both want to have someone come look at fixing/replacing it, but are scared of the expense.

Oh no, it's sunny here right now. I suppose that means it'll be raining here soon You never know! It was storming a little east of here a couple weekends ago and we never really got anything. It could miss you.

I bet it wouldn't be too expensive to have someone come fix yours, I don't feel like it was that expensive to have ours installed.

Morning! No real plans for today. DH has to go do a service on my dads truck, then we have to pick up Father's Day gifts. Aside from that it's a pretty low key day.

Gave my dad his Father's Day gift from us earlier this week. DH's arrived yesterday. I'm hoping he didn't open it. I find it so much easier to shop for my dad then my mom or my dh.

wedding, we have a wedding in Florida right near Orlando in November, so we're extending our trip by just three days to do Disney. It isn't ideal bc I want 7-10 days there to do it right. The way I'm dealing with it is to just focus on the Magic Kingdom and our hotel. This will make meals, snack, and rest a lot easier and focused for me, and I know we'll be back there to do it all soon enough.

Morning ladies. Not sure what the plan is yet. I'm thinking maybe Farmer's market and getting yard work out of the way so we can enjoy the rest of the evening.

I'm happy to report that my chickadee family have left the nest. Hopefully we can have a new family next year because I was more than happy to host them and chase away the bully magpies and crows!

chrisy01 that's beautiful. It must be hard to leave. csho everything crossed for your offer!! flamingo where are you going?? Hi from a hotel room! We skipped camping and stayed and extra night in a hotel because my Morning sickness is kicking my ass at night, like full on puking every night. (Did I tell you guys this yesterday? I feel like I might have) anyway, were going to head home today. It was a really nice weekend. I love our college town and we spent yesterday at the lake and the weather was beautiful. We also checked out pups and ultimately decided against it. There were some really sweet ones, but none felt exactly right for us. And I think we just have too much going on right now. This was dh's idea, but he agreed with me and we agreed to just keep looking. Maybe a Christmas puppy??

chrisy01 what a beautiful view! I had a similar situation with my family farm so i can completely relate. It's an emotional time, like the end of an era. Eta:: Mine was a little different because my uncle had the will changed for him to receive the farm before my Grandfather was even buried, then took out a restraining order so we couldn't go there...still, the end of an era I guess

I agree with guster, wedding. If you're doing fewer nights focus on 1-2 parks. If you want to add a second one to Magic Kingdom go with either Animal Kingdom or Epcot because I've heard Hollywood Studios is under massive construction. I love Disney trips.

I downloaded a Choose Your Own Adventure app when the kids were bored in the car the other day. It's like a geeky D&D adventure and MH is really into it. Whenever I read the options to the girls he's right there hollering out his choice.

Morning! I'm at the blowout bar, then heading to my niece's birthday party. MH has a bachelor party in the city so it's just me and the boy tonight.

wedding I think you can do Disney in however many days you have. Would you have five days to play with? Where are you staying? Do you want to do a pool day? I would def do Magic Kingdom. I think it's up for debate what other park you want to do. I loved Hollywood Studios for C because that's where they had all the Disney Junior stuff, so it was probably his favorite park. It's smaller and less busy so you could easily do a morning in Hollywood Studios and and afternoon or evening in Epcot or Animal Kingdom, with a park hopper. I think if you zero in on what you want to do at each park, that's totally manageable.

There is a billboard downtown here for the "free thinkers" that I think is pretty controversial. They usually show up to all the parades and have floats.
ETA: I don't have a problem with it, but I think the religious, right wing people do.

It's a little violent in a few places but not too bad.

H has started to say a couple things lately and I kind of love it. She will ask a question and end with "or not?". "Are we going to the park, or not?"
Sometimes she responds to things I say with "what?!"

I know a few years ago they were a little disturbing because I remembering driving with my grandma and she made a comment.

It's a group (club maybe?) with people that have different beliefs. The group description says atheists, agnostics, feminists, scientists, humanists, etc.
