Feelin' Hot Hot Hot!

Summer is flying by and boy is it ever HOT!  We have had record breaking temps that have stayed between 103 and 107!  The air is so hot!!  90's would be like a cool front now!:)

Father's Day weekend we spent at our cabin.  It was such a fun time that went by too fast as usual.  Matt and Jessica came up on Friday and spent the weekend with us.  Ben and Natalie came up only for the day on Sunday!  We celebrated on Sunday at Paul's brothers house with a cookout and big family get together.  It was Paul's dads 90 birthday celebration so we combined it with Father's Day!  It was fun to see everyone.  There are many new additions to the family...some we had not seen before.  At one point I could not count all the little bodies that were swimming in the pool.  Thank goodness it is a large pool!!

While we were there, I called my mom and asked if she would like to come down on Saturday!  She did so we (Savannah, me and my mom) hit the back roads to Mtn. View to see my cousin Lucretia's new home.  My Aunt Norma joined us in Mtn. View on the town square, where we enjoyed delicious food and lots of fun shopping.  The day flew by but we crammed as much fun into as we could!  We dropped off my aunt around 6:00 and headed back to the cabin where a delicious meal was waiting on us!  Paul is learning to make homemade tortilla's! We had fish tacos and boy were they delicious!!

While we were there, my brother brought the rest of our cabinets that he is building for the kitchen!  It looks so good!!  So thankful for such wonderful brothers and family!  

On the home front here, I have been cleaning out and freshening some things up!  It always feels good to move things around a little bit!  I keep trying to clean out....I have decided I have too much stuff!  There will be another garage sale in the near future!

This past week we attended the Ms Teen Arkansas pageant!   Two of Savannah's good friend were in it!  Raygon Sylvester and Laura Leigh Turner.  Raygon was 2nd runner up and Laura Leigh was the winner!  We enjoyed cheering the girls on all week.  They both did a fabulous job!  So proud of them!

Well today is the beginning of a new month!  As I've said before, there is just something about starting over.  I love new beginnings!  So this month, I am setting my goals for more family fun!

Abundantly blessed ...Lisa
