Hi all - I love June! First, my kids get out of school and summer begins, so lots of fun activities ranging from birthday parties, play dates and the pool - busy, but fun! Also, my hubby has his birthday this month, followed closely by Father's Day - I am blessed to say I have a wonderful father and will be able to see him that weekend! :) I also am ecstatic that I get a week to myself!!!! Yes folks, a whole week where I have the house to myself - I can do what I want, eat what I want, and heck prance around naked if I want (but trust me, I won't...haha)! Just the thought of it makes me giddy! My hubby is heading up to his mom's for a mud run, and then will stick around to help her with some household projects. In the meantime, my parents are taking both kids for a week! Don't get me wrong, I will miss them all terribly, and will be so glad to have them return home safely - but for that week while they are gone!!! Oh...what to do!? I already have a girls night out planned with one of my friends. I plan on doing some deep cleaning in areas that are usually neglected - not fun, but necessary - and will be much easier to accomplish without little ones (and one big messy one) around! Oh the possibilities are endless!!! :) So...yes, this month is looking good so far!
On a sad note, there are two anniversaries I don't like - today is one of them. My wonderful Father-in-law passed away two years ago today and is dearly missed. He was a terrific man and wish he was still here with us. Also, we are getting ready to hit the 25th anniversary of my brother's death - he was killed in a car accident at the age of 18 - he has been dead longer than he has been alive, but he is still sooooo missed! Not a day goes by where I wish I couldn't call up my older brother for advice, just to laugh, and I wish my children could have met their awesome uncle! So...love June, but there are a few shadows - they are from the angels looking at us from above!
