so sorry...so busy!!

i know i know...its been like a week, and a crazy week at that!! i dont even know where to begin on filling you in! tuesday we took the twins to get their 6 month pics taken...they are adorable! ill post some pics when i pick them up...wednesday i got my hair cut, thursday i made 10 batches of purple rice krispie treats for my dear friend jess, a small effort towards a big cause...they were one of the desserts at her wedding that we went to saturday night! yes, i made enough krispie treats to feed 200 people!! i was so grateful to have been asked to make the dessert that did not need to be baked...(its been like 85-90 here, high humidity)

the wedding was absolutely gorgeous!! the first dry wedding i have ever been to and honestly it was really nice, something i think more people should do. it was nice to see that people can have a good time without having a drink to get to that point...but jess was a beautiful bride and i am so happy for her and jake!

the starbucks crew with the new bride and groom!! what a happy "family"!!

me, becky, matt, megan, jake, jess, todd, smooches, nikki, val, dan, eric, sarah and donna...

yesterday morning we also had tuscan helping with some of the daily chores, like emptying the dishwasher...he decided to put the silverware away, and believe it or not, he put it all in the right spots...big forks with big forks, little spoons with little spoons... it was so impressive i had to get a picture! he never ceases to amaze me...its something new with him everyday, he is just growing up so quickly!

today was a day of hard sun scorching labor though...we went to church this morning, which was hot muggy but worth every minute...our sermon was about addiction and our pastor just had so many things to say that made so much sense and were so easy to relate to...god works in such wonderful ways...we havent been to church in a few weeks and when we left there today we knew there was a true reason why we had put the effort into the family outting today...it was also much more enjoyable because tuscan decided to escort himself to the nursery as soon as we walked in the door. church is always more enjoyable and fulfilling when we only have 2 babies to worry about.

after church we made the biweekly trip to target to stock up on diapers and baby food..anytime they have their buy 2 boxes get a $5 g.c deal we always stock up...so $111.11 later we were walking out with 4 boxes of diapers, 20 jars of baby food, natural teething ointment and a fan for tuscans room. we also ran into a friend of mine whom i havent seen in about a year...and funny thing was i just had a thought about him this morning - weird how god puts things in life at times when u least expect it! i wish i could run into other friends i dont see very often (kellie, kelly, mandy...) every time i have a random thought about them!! but its always a nice surprise none the less...

when we got home the hard work began... i started weeding the gardens, frank started painting the trim and closet doors for the babies room and then we started transplanting some of the plants in our gardens. we have an area of grass in the front yard between the driveway and the neighbors fence that is just impossible to cut so we decided to dig it up and plant a taller, green and flowering plant that spreads like wildfire...as soon as the project is finished and it comes back to life ill be sure to post a pic. it will definitely look really great when its done, its just going to be a lot of manual labor to get there!! so we sweat our butts off and got a little sun (frank more than others!) but it was a great day and now we are going to get the kids to bed and hopefully watch a movie before the chaos of another week begins...

may god bless you all in the coming week that will probably be just as busy as ours!
