Our Holiday Weekend

We had a great weekend. We had some friends over Sat night and had a great time! The weather couldn't have been better or the company for that matter. Sunday we went to Harpers Ferry for a picnic and explore the park and today went celebrated Memorial day in Gettysburg. PA. Scott or I have never been and since we are only about an hour we decided to visit a great place in our country's history. I was really interesting and I could have spent hours meandering around all the great artifacts but the kids move way too fast for us!Jake and Cade both chose the same thing at the gift store, the 4 piece Confederate Soldiers with tiny cannons and so the tiny cannon is what Jake is holding in front of his face for all to see. Lila chose a red/white& blue purse with pony included. We also took in the parade and the kids got a kick out of it and Lila got to enjoy her first snow cone. We also had 3 showings (2 same people) but haven't heard anything, that would be too good to be true!!! So hope all had a great Memorial Day weekend and at least everyone thought of how much our soldiers, past and present, have sacrificed to protected this beautiful county!!!

Haircuts and naps!!

Jake has been complaining that his hair is too long.... yes I am serious! SO he wanted a haircut so I took him and he really wanted a hair cut.Jake has never asked that his head be shaved before but he did this time and he loves it! I don't loved it but it sure makes getting ready for school a lot easier for him. Cade then wanted a hair cut but not just like Jake's so his is a cm longer on top!! Scott wasn't feeling great Sat and the day was so yucky that it caused a spontaneous group nap. I wish I could have been a participant they looked so cozy that I had to snap a pic!!

Our girl at the farm!

Today Lila had her first trip to a farm. She was so excited to see all the animals. The cows were definitely her favorites especially the calves. She just loved petting them and asked if we could take one home!! She loves animals and wants a "small" dog that she can keep in her room but her father is not falling for that one!! Here is Jake's self portrait and being his mother I think my son is gorgeous ,but come on does he not have the most beautiful eyes!!! Future lady killer!!!

It's ON!!!

The house is officially on the market. Unfortunately,we all know this is perhaps the WORST time to sell your house so we are hopeful but uncertain what the future might hold. But on the chance(pretty please cut me a break) sell I have some great places in Savannah that I would love to call home so time will decide our fate!!! Jake is still struggling without his regular teacher, Ms Sturba, so I for one look forward to ending this school year as quickly as possible though this will be a long 3 weeks for my poor 1st grader!! Please keep your fingers,toes, eyes, and whatever other part you can think of crossed for the Stark 5 because we really need it!!
signed desperate to sell!!!!
