The simple things!

Simple things that make us smile.

Sidewalk chalk = $1.89

but adds up to hours of fun.. I can't tell you the hours we've all spent with sidewalk chalk.

From Beach scenes that took up most of the driveway to the alphabet when they were learning to write their letters.... hmmm one of these days I'm really going to miss it!

Greg got in on the action yesterday ~ Grace is working on learning to write in cursive.

The only reason Kacey wasn't out there in the middle of it was... Yep basketball practice!

But warm weather is coming and I'm sure they'll be lots more opportunities!

Happy Wednesday!

Restful or Stressful?

Our weekend was a little of both! Started out with a call on Thursday from Greg! Kacey has two left shoes ~ GREAT! Let me explain on the days Kacey has AAU practice, she doesn't come home she takes her clothes to change into and after school when Greg picks her up she is ready to go straight to practice with sandwich in hand we pack ahead of time. Don't let the pretend face of organization fool you something always happens to make it interesting. Thursday when Greg picked her up she had picked up 2 left basketball shoes, only at the Narrell's would a girl have two pair of basketball shoes to even mix up. This being said it was not our night to carpool so Greg drops her off to meet her ride, and has some errands to run. I race home get the right shoe and race to the gym which is across from the lake and when we walk in the whole gym says There's the other shoe, she is playing in her ankle brace one shoe and her sock, she comes up grabs the shoe and was mumbling under her breathe ~ Thanks Mom ~ so Grace and I took a stroll to work off some stress!

This is what our yard looked like on Sat PM....

The Narrell's have new field lines nothing to brag about no, but it sure makes you realize what you take for granted....

In all the choas, we lost a tooth!

Dad felt sorry for us and cut up our tree, Thanks Dad!

And now the stump is also gone!

Friday pm/Sat morning.

Wonder if my yard will ever look the same :-)

One more look at the lake.... that was our crazy weekend.

How was your weekend?

Happy Birthday Nana!

Hope you had a good birthday!

Sunday night wind!

Did you hear the wind Sunday night? We sure did! We are fortunate the apple tree wasn't larger! We have some cleanup to do ~ 2 trees and lots of limbs but that is okay! I was sad it was my apple tree, but it could have been much worse. And nights like that I'm so thankful we had the pines around the house cut.

I don't know about you but I'm ready for some sunshine and for these storms to take a hike!

Happy Tuesday!
