Coming Soon: LuLaRoe Consultant

Our family has decided to venture into the LuLaRoe business.

Considering the investment, it took several months of thought and planning just to decide this was the right decision for our family. Unlike my Thirty-One adventure, I’ve put a lot of time into this, as well as developing a business plan.

We have all of the supplies purchased. Now, we are just waiting for the call…

Navy’s 1st Run

After missing a game and a few practices because his arm was in a splint, Navy was happy to finally be able to play baseball again.

Navy scored his first run of the season!

As a rookie, he spends more time in the outfield and bats near the end of the line-up.  Continue reading

We Have a Table!

Moving is so frustrating.

We moved all of the big things in one day. Unfortunately, the dining table was left behind because we had a card table set up. There wasn’t really extra room in the moving truck, and there wasn’t an immediate need for the table.

Fast forward to cleaning the new house, organizing it how we want, and decorating it to our taste. The card table was over run with nails, screws, curtains, barbeque sauce, and just about anything else.

I am so happy that we finally have a decent table to for dinner together as a family.

Now, chairs…

First Day of School

I’ve been excited for, and dreading, the first day of school. I’m sending both kids off this year.

Navy is in kindergarten. It is hard to believe that he is in school. Not just preschool. Real school. All day, five days a week.

Summer is Over

I can’t believe that it is time to go back to school. Summer flew by quickly for us. It seemed faster than in years past.

Our last weekend of freedom, we really wanted to live it up. No lounging around the house packing backpacks and going over supply lists.

We escaped to the beach!

Crooked Lake

Navy at Crooked Lake

Saturday was spend splashing around Crooked Lake. The kids made friends with other kids playing in the water. It wasn’t crowded. The water was calm.

The sunset was amazing.

Sunday included a picnic and swimming at Pokagon State Park. Lily made friends with a few other girls. They were doing underwater handstand tricks.

Navy stayed closer to me. We played and splashed in the water. He was venturing out a little further in the water, then we’d dunk ourselves.

It was a fun was to spend our last weekend before school starts. Low key and close to home. We just got to spend time together and not deal with the craziness of the coming year.
