SOLD

Friday the 13th is usually thought of as unlucky, but for the Sandidges today was a good day!  We sold our house!!  

it's so good to see this sign in the yard!

 It was a little sad as the movers carried everything out of the house.  I may or may not have shed a few tears!  This was the house where we brought our children home to and watched them achieve all their milestones.

We're staying in a friend's basement for a few weeks until we are able to close on our new house!

Away

You may have noticed my lack of blogging lately, but I've had nothing to blog about.  Reagan and Cooper are spending the week with Gigi and Bubba.  This is the 1st time EVER that I have been away from them.  (we either travelled together or they were always at home if I wasn't).  I've been busy, but missing them like crazy.

Thankfully, Gigi & Bubba knows my tendency to take a picture now and then, so they sent me one.

Can't wait to see them on Friday!

Waiting

Gigi & Bubba are coming for a visit today.  When I told Cooper, he sat up a chair in the garage and said he was going to wait for them (although they wouldn't be here for a least another 8 hours).  He was so sweet!

he lasted about and hour in the heat

 watching and waiting

 Reagan convinced him to pass the time by playing in the backyard

Fresh Air

We took advantage of the cooler (90 degree) morning weather and played outside for a little while.  

we rode bikes

 and played in the sand box ~ as a special treat, I put water on the other side so they could truly have a sand and water table

Happy 4th of July

We celebrated the 4th of July with a pool party with our friends.

we grilled hot dogs and hamburgers

 We came home and watched the neighbors fireworks and then lit a few sparklers of our own

 Reagan was content to watch Cooper handle the fireworks

Free Bowl

The weather has been so warm hot lately, so the kids and I decided to take advantage of the AMF Summer Kids Program.  When you sign up, each kid can bowl 2 free games per day, you only have to pay shoe rental.  Sign us up!!!

We had so much fun ~ I think we'll have to do this again next week.
