Let Freedom Ring

So we are now officially hitting those Summer temps and Bella LOVES to be outside! She wakes up every morning and wants to wear her Tinterbell pretty dress which is a Tinkerbell swimsuit with a skirt. She also reminds me to put on the sunscreen as well.
She makes me laugh everyday, without fail. I am blessed. I have tried to spend the past month getting my house decorated for the 4th of July and finish a few decorating touches in the kitchen and front rooms. I can't believe we have lived here for a year and we are still trying to get settled in. Joe has been working so hard to get our yard done. He has finished putting in the sod and put in a 12 X 12 patio last weekend. GO JOE!! Our garden is looking good, we actually have a tomato already! I will put some pictures up of his great work. We just have one final area to complete this year before we call it quits. We will work on trees, rocks and a fence next year.
Joe has been working really hard this month at work. He has a deadline that is up on July 7th so he has been putting in some long nights. He was able to come home last night so that I could go to a concert with my baby sister, Krissy. Krissy works full time as well as going to school part time so I rarely get to spend time with her. It was so fun and great to have some one on one with her! She amazes me... mother of 4 and still doing what she does.
Speaking of family, my brother is doing as well as can be expected. He is still in the hospital, it will be 2 months on the 3rd of July. What a trooper! Remember, if you would like more of an update, please check out his site @ www.justinbutts.blogspot.com there is also a link for donations if you are able. What ever you are able to do is so appreciated.
We hope that this month brings you fun and a time of celebration. We have been given so much and now is the time to remember where it came from.
