Vacation
It's crazy that it is already the middle of August! Time flies when you work 12 hour days! Hahaha! That's what it has felt like for the past few months. Last night i sat down at 9:30 and i realized how much my back hurt! Yesterday I woke up at 7:00 and scrubbed my floors, then went to work, then came home and scrubbed more floors & did more sorting and cleaning...i'm actually having a fun time setting up house and settling in. But we did take a break from the craziness of life and went on vacation.
We spent the first 5 days at Green Lake with my family. It was great! We sun tanned (for the 3 sunny days we had TOTAL), slept, played games (wingit & rook), wakeboarded, went boating, went for walks, ate lots of wonderful food & slept more. It was wonderful to spend vacation time with the family...great memories. My neices, Janae & Rachel, and SO FUN! I love every minute i get to spend with them! They are a blessing :)
The last 5 days of the trip we spent at Canim Lake with Dan's family. We did much of the same stuff that we did at Green Lake...add a few martinis :) We came home feeling relaxed and refreshed and ready to do more work at our house!
We still have siding to put on & lots of odds & ends to finish up. We have 2.5 acres to landscape (oh man), and a rental house to build. Just when i think my life is slowing down...it doesn't. But it's good! I like being busy...as long as i get atleast 1 night a week to do NOTHING, then i'm good to go! It's been so much fun cooking in a real house and having baths in my soaker tub....ahhhh I'm happy.
Other than that...work is good all around. Dan went fishing last night and caught a nice Sokeye Salmon, so we'll BBQ it up tonight with a homemade maple sauce! Can't wait! This weekend my family is coming over for my Mom's B-day! Our first big party in our house...i'm really looking forward to it! We would like to have an open house soon...so i'll keep you all posted! We are constantly reminded of our Fathers faithfulness! We are so blessed to be where we are at in the beautiful location right by the river...it's perfect!
Have a great day!
