My First Rant

Okay, I just can’t seem to get enough water into me! I am sure the pregnancy is part of it. The other for sure factor is our precious and ROASTING HOT farm house!! Yes, it is air conditioned. No, it isn’t cool. I just went to our faithful friend, Walmart, and purchased multiple oscillating fans so that everywhere I walk there is circulating air. It is ridiculous. (Knowing, my mom is supposed to come visit in two weeks and she might reconsider after seeing this) So, I am off now to drink another 20 oz. of COLD water. For Pete’s sake!!!

Visit from Family

Well, the Jacksons have been here for the past four days and we had a ball. My nephew slept in the room with the computer so I didn’t get to post as we went but now I’ll tell all about it.

The bottom line is that we had SUCH a good time. It was a blessing to be with their family and LAUGH and have fun. They went to tour the Arch and Brewery without us on Monday and then kept the kids so Jeremy and I could have a date. We had a free movie ticket so we went to see Ocean’s Thirteen. After all the previews and 3 minutes into the film, the electricity went out!! It didn’t come back on so we went and got our money back and ran down the street to another cinema and sat down just as the movie started! (The movie was cute. The same old same old plot but fun and entertaining.)

Tuesday we went to Grant’s Farm.

C fed the goats, Bubba chased the goats, and Little was pounced on and eaten (her shirt) by the goats.

There was the “train” ride,

camels to feed, and the weather was a perfect 72ish. Such fun. The guys went to see Transformers that afternoon. July 4 was spent playing games, cooking out, and hanging out. Good times.
