purple haze

holy cow!  i didn't realize that it has been a little over a month since i last posted, but when i think of the haze that i've been in since we left south carolina it's no surprise.  i am back...like any mother of two under three i am constantly running around, but it's funny, i never really feel like i'm getting anywhere.  being a daughter of two very high achievers has been rough.  i constantly hear them in my head telling me to clean up and don't stop...i'm running on fumes these days.  everywhere i turn around there is something to do.  matt gets frustrated cause there is always something that needs his man power to get done.
last night we had a nice dinner with our neighbors, the diaz family.  ever since they invited us over for a fourth of july bbq we've been able to do something with our kiddos weekly.  my sweet friend heather has already made the huge effort to come visit us for the day this past weekend.  we went to the splash pad in gardendale which is a 20 minute drive from our home.  i'm waiting for the refrigerator to get delivered in the next 30 minutes, and the washing machine repair man is coming this afternoon.  our washing machine has been trying to get fixed for the last two weeks.  i've gone to the laundry mat, and done wash n fold which got expensive fast!  i'm so ready to have a working washing machine again.  with a family of boys it's a must!  i've got a lot of photos to upload from the beginning of june, but alas i haven't found the box with the cord yet.  gotta run, but what's new...
