Sep. 1, 2008 - Labor Day..
Yes another Labor Day come and gone. We did school in the morning. I don't want to have the boys skip any days yet. We are focused on our goal of 180 days. Nathan seems to have overcome at least some of the trouble he had with spelling also. I am amazed at his progress already.
After school BIGFamily came over and we had a FEAST!! Burgers, hot dogs, BBQ chicken, steak, potato salad, deviled eggs, baked beans and more. The bar in my kitchen was so full with food. It was wonderful. We haven't cooked out like that in so long and the grill was in full gear cooking all that food. I am so grateful to have my friend Kim by my side to help me with all the food prep and dishes. Oh My!! Don't get me started on how many dishes that is..... The kids spent the afternoon in the pool. We all went for a walk after dessert. The grown ups walked and the littles and the middles rode their bikes on the road down to the lake that is by our house. The littles are Kendra and Kenzie and the middles are Matthew, Nathan and Ashley. We call the teenagers....the Bigs. I know, but BIGfamily has it's own lingo about some things. It is funny.... but we have made up our own vernacular.
I was at the dentist on Friday and he said I am all healed now. I can start calling tomorrow for my dentures. I am so happy about that. I am going to have a beautiful smile. I know that 35 is young for dentures, but I am so pleased not to be in pain anymore. It has been so great to get back to normal with that. I can't wait to EAT!! I am so hungry for a salad and some fruit. I don't care if I ever eat mashed potatoes again, lol.
So that is all for this Labor Day at our home. I hope yours was blessed and you find yourself rested.
