Update…

Well, since I am trying to be a better blogger, I thought I would update you all on our Grace Lily, who is now almost 15 months old and Jackson Scott, who is almost 4 months old…

The kids brought the babies down south to see us a few weekends ago, so my parents, who are in their 80’s and don’t travel anymore, could see Gracie and meet Jack.  When we found out they were coming to visit, we thought ‘lets throw a party’ so our family and friends here could see the kids and babies…it was so hot out that day but we still set up the patio with portable misters, which helped…at least it was still a dry heat at that point!  Here are a few pictures from the party…CAUTION!  Lots of pictures…turn away now lol!

Yes, this is an actual blog post! Pink Saturday!

As usual, I have been remiss in blogging..I love reading everyone’s blogs, I just can’t seem to get anything posted myself..and the more I think about it, the more I can’t seem to get any posts up..I keep trying!

It’s kind of funny that almost 3 years ago I first joined with all these wonderful bloggers at Pink Saturday since I really don’t own much pink, I am a mom to sons…but somehow I usually find something pink to post about..Pink is a happy color and I try to think of Pink Saturday as a happy place, not so much about the color pink anymore.

Please head over to see Beverly at How Sweet the Sound and leave her a comment..She works very hard at hosting every Saturday and has a beautiful blog, in addition to all my fellow Pinkies!

Well, lets see..what can I do for pink..how about..

A pink fan..dang it has been hot here in the desert..and it’s not been a dry heat, either, lots of high temps and humidity…fall can’t come soon enough for me!

I hope it’s not as hot and muggy in your part of the world, and I hope we get some cooler, drier air really soon!  Think Fall!
