For some reason, I really had a hankering for home made lemonade. I think it's because I had some delicious (spiked) lemonade when we went away for our anniversary.
The boys are being pretty good. Wellington at the moment is driving me crazy. He's been very demanding lately and believes he controls my phone and the computer. The boys and I have also been battling a terrible cold for the last week and a half. I'm finally kind of feeling normal. Health is definitly not to be taken for granted. Over the weekend we got to go to Lake Toxaway with Paul, Karyn and Andrew. We enjoyed being up there so much! It's a beautiful place if you ever get the chance to go. We swam, boated and did lots of fishing. I don't think Karyn or I have any chance but to do lots of fishing in the next several years. :) Here we are headed out.
{sorry about the finger!}
Fielding was out. of. control. when it came to fishing and having the fishing pole. I think we were all amazed/shocked/confused by his obsession.
While we were down at the lake, I spotted a snake in some of the shrub netting. The guys promptly went to work getting him out. In the end, the snake survived. We think he was nonpoisonous.
My brave husband.
Happy birthday, Karyn! We got to celebrate Karyn's birthday while there too. The boys were super excited about cupcakes...as always. They were delicious!
I also introduced the boys to Duck Hunt and Mario! Oh my...it was so fun to play the original Nintendo. Josh and I wanted to play but the kids ran off to get into trouble so we had to stop. :) Did you play the original Mario?
Ok- the house is getting sooo close! We got gutters last week. Here's the gutter machine. I had never seen this thing before.
Trips to Home Depot aren't as thrilling any more. Wells fell asleep on the way there. I transfered him into the cart and did most of my shopping before he woke up! Poor guy!
This window still hasn't been replaced. But you can see our cool bronze gutters here.
I couldn't help but do a little something fun since I was bringing these pavers from the other house anyway. ...An entrance to my will be garden!
The floors are still not right. We had planned to move Wednesday...tomorrow. But the floors have many spots that have issues. Thus, they are coming to sand, do another coat of stain, and put the poly on tomorrow and Thursday. Friday is moving day!
There was dust all over all the trim...even with a bagged sander. :(
Here's the kitchen this morning....While I'm writing this, the guys are finishing the granite and installing carpet upstairs. Check in next time for pictures of that progress!

That's all for now! Hopefully things will fall into place. It's crazy here. I've got to head back to the house to check work, pay guys, clean for floor people and then do some returns at Lowes!
