OUR YARD!!!
Yesterday was very productive, we cut the grass, moved the gazebo, put up the new pool (which we bought off craigslist brand new in the box, score) moved the blue garden bins. The back yard looks great and feels awesome. I did really well eating again today felt like something sweet grabbed a peach instead of rice crispy squares. High five for me!! We had our homemade pizza which is a sooooooo good and filling. I actually got the hubby to try red and green peppers and mushrooms on his pizza he said he loved it. Also I think I'm rubbing off on everyone here as my hubby had cantaloupe for desert instead of ice cream or other junk. My youngest son said he was still hungry after dinner I said I'm not getting anything else he said "Daddy can I have some vegetables?" How can I say no to that? I was down stairs so fast and started cutting up veg and fruit, that totally surprised me. I'm just so happy. I have a part of a song running thru my head right now It goes FREE YOUR MIND AND THE REST WILL FOLLOW. OMG its so true!!
Theses pictures were taken in the back of our house.
So the last 2 days we have been outside most of the time with the kids and they say these are the best 2 days of summer. Were just hanging out in our back yard getting stuff done but i guess we are all together hanging out. This morning i colored a friends hair and I really enjoyed doing that it was nice to talk grown up and do some girly things. The boys were really good as well. I also gave Orea my half chow half lab a hair cut today he looks so cute all quaffed and pretty. He was also a good boy he didn't jump on my guest and he actually came to me when i called him. Wow all my boys are listening to me today, watch all hell is going to break lose now that Ive said that. I'm amazed at how much I can eat in a day as long as I choose healthy. So far today I had a kids ikea bowl of shreddies and skim milk, 2 whole wheat pita pizzas which had green and red peppers and mushrooms lite sprinkle of cheese and Parmesan of course had sauce on it as well So good. My goal is to only have one but I'm not quite there yet and that's okay I think next time I will have 1 1/2 instead of 2 whole wheat pitas. For a treat i did have a Popsicle that equaled 35 calories. I'm not going to deprive myself just moderate what I'm eating. Everything in moderation right? For dinner I'm not sure what I feel like but I'm sure I will choose health. Hope you have all had a good one, talk to you soon.

Sounds like a great day! I love it when I can have a productive day that includes the kids and having fun with them; it's great to include them. Remember that nothing stays the same. Good days will end, on the other hand, that also means the bad days will end. And hey, it doesn't have to mean the WHOLE day either, after a while I start noticing only the good parts. I find that if I focus on the positive my outlook on the difficult part of my day just seems like a hiccup instead of a head cold. Love you lots! Connie :) <3
Yard looks great! Can't wait to come & play! Great score on the pool, what size is it. We will have to get together soon for a hair & nail session and play for the kids. Great to see you all enjoying the summer :)
