Good afternoon! I'm getting a late start here, as it's been a crazy day. Scottie had a dentist appointment, Sydney had a doctor's appointment, Dakota had a grooming appointment and Shawn and I have spent the rest of the morning getting jobs done around the house, him working at his desk, and calling doctors.

It's that time of year where the weather gets severe and stormy and the threat of tornados goes up.

Looking forward to:::
The craziness of the next 3 weeks to be over. School is out on the 23rd and I'm so excited to be able to sit down and read and not run all day long.
Looking around the house:::
I'm sitting at the kitchen counter, having just finished lunch. I need to clear my dishes and the dishes off of the kitchen table from the girls having eaten. Scottie is getting into her dance leotard and all ready for dance class. Sydney is home from school today with a rash, so between the benadryl and just wanting to relax she's spending most of the day in bed. It's supposed to storm tonight but right now it's so sunny and beautiful out so Shawn is working at the table on the back deck while 2 of the dogs run like crazy through the back yard chasing birds and squirrels. Dakota just got home from the groomers and is wondering through the house. The cats have all found nice soft or sunny spots to lay for the afternoon.
From the camera:::
At the preschool that Scottie goes to, once a year they have the fire fighters come out and talk to the kids about fire safety. One of the firefighters will dress up completely in everything including the mask and air tank so the kids aren't scared of them in the event of a fire. They let the kids climb in the truck and spray the fire hose. It's one of the most exciting days all year.
I'm wearing denim crop pants, a gray v neck tshirt and my gray roxy slipon shoes
One of my simple pleasures:::
Meeting and loving other mommas. This weekend I attended my husband's cousin's baby shower and knew only a few of the guests. I quickly fell in love with a couple of other mommas.
Prayers today for my sweet Sydney. She's covered in hives. The allergist can't get her in until the 17th. Hopefully the hives go away in the next day or two as she's missing all the fun stuff at school for the end of the year.

Girl, you read so much, I want to be like you when I grow up LOL I have so many books for review and I struggle to get through them lately, by the time I get a moment to read, I just want to sleep instead.
You and I are both in Tornado Alley, and yep, it's that time of year, we've had crazy weird weather already, tons of tornado watches, it's nuts, matter of fact it's been pouring down since 3AM.
Stay safe out there. Prayers for Sydney.
