Water Sprinkler

We had a such great night. Lola had a soccer game tonight. I'm not sure if they won or not but it was fun watching the kids play. Lola has amazed me at how well she has done this season- I hate to admit this but I didn't have a lot of confidance in her because the very first day she stopped to pick up flowers while she was kicking the ball during practice. She has shown that she is a great team athlete and she has a bit of skill. Lola isn't a natural born athlete but I think within time with some guidance she may surprise us all.

To get back to our evening...

We met our friends and their kids at the country club for dinner (Tyson also had a soccer game). Awesome dinner, well behaved children, perfect warm night out. After dinner we went out back to the golf course so the kids could run off some last minute energy before we went home for showers and bed. All of a sudden as they are playing all the sprinklers on the course turn on and our kids ran for it. Now when I'm talking sprinklers they are giant sprinklers- they were drenched and we didn't care...hearing how excited they were- was so worth it.

A night on the boat

We had such a great time tonight on the lake, I love that we can just hop on our boat and cruz around for a few hours and enjoy our family time. There's only 4 nice months out of the year here, so we all have to make every minute count. We are so lucky to live in a place where we can live like this.

The weather was warm, the kids were relaxed,
the sunset was beautiful
We lived a great day!

My friend Amy

It's my friend Amy's birthday and I made a great banner for her with this picture on it. I forgot to take a picture the banner but here's the picture I used. I took this picture when they came out on our boat last year. They had such a great time on the boat that the following week they got a boat of their own. That day changed their lives- it's amazing how a boat can bring a family closer together. They found their peace and we found a fun boating family to hang out with.

Camp

When did my girl grow up so fast?
First day of camp for Lola...look at how happy she is?

I hope she has an amazing time-
Did I pack enough
bug spray &
sun block?

Sasha at the eye doctor's

A girlfriend thought that Sasha was cross eyed, so I brought her to the Eye Doctor's. She had so much fun here, she must have tried on 30 pairs of glasses. Her eye's are perfect!

My Heart

I have produced the most amazing little girl. I just can't get enough of Lola. Her smile, laugh, and her way. I want to keep her just like she is in this page I did for Valentines Day. I took the picture in the fall during High Holly Day's but just got around to scrapping it a few months ago. I suppose I need to make a page for the other kidlets too. Shhhhh.....don't tell them.

MIA

I'm sure not too many people have noticed I have been gone from blogging, because I haven't made my blog public yet. Before releasing it to the world to enjoy, I have wanted to fill it up with goodies like I see on so many fantastic blogs I read on a weekly basis.

I visit so many amazing artists that create amazing art, have gripping stories, goodies that are for sale, pictures flea market from across the world, great home interiors, glorious gardens, beautiful children, yummy recipes, etc. I would love my Peepshow to have that design quality, a place where my kids could visit when they learn to read and see what mama's days were like. What I love, what makes me smile, and what I create.

I'm going to start in the next few days photographing all of my goodies, upload my camera, catch up on story idea's, and take a few hours a day just to be artistic. Wherever my journey in blogging brings me again, I hope that I can grow as a creator, preserver, and a writter of my minutia.

I hope my PEEPSHOW makes it into your part of the world.

Breakfast at French Meadow

Bikini Here I come!

It's about time for the pool to open up and the boat & wave runners to get put into the lake. I am so excited for relaxing this summer and not having to get the kids to school on time.

I'm going to spend as much time in my swimsuit as possible- even though I don't think I'll be able to get to work out as much as I want to...Bikini Here I come!

What a great idea.
I love paperclips.
Being organized is so important and when you can be cute with it, it's just that much more fun!

Time Flies

I am totaly obsessed with how fast time flies. It's almost time for the kids to be done with school for the summer. I can't believe that Lola is done with nursery school and going into Kindgergarten in the fall....wow! Josh is going into forth grade and Sasha is stuck at Beth El for another 3 years. I can't wait for the day that 2 out of 3 kids will be in one school!
