July and August so far

So far this Summer has gone by so fast that I can hardly believe it.  We have been lazy and busy all at the same time. It's Florida in the summer so it's been very hot and sticky so much time has been spent at the pool. We have also had tons of fun getting to play with our friends before school starts and we won't get to see them as much.  Here are just a few highlights of our summer...

Jolee and Rory visiting with Cinderella at Emma's birthday party

Jolee is actually letting me do her hair these days so I had to show off the french braid pigtails I did... this was my first time , so I am proud!

My new garden that Joe made for me. Right now it is only half filled for fall with Tomatoes, green peppers, carrots and things that do well in fall. Come Spring it will be packed full!

The girls playing with the hose in the backyard

My Official cake testers. What started off as a fun project for Jolee's birthday  and some friends birthdays has now become a paying gig... We'll see where it goes. For more info check out my other blog...  http://www.sillymonkeycakes.blogspot.com/

My girls getting along and being sweet. This does not happen often!
