Cleaning never ends!!

Today has been a day where cleaning has been a constant battle,I decided to take all the schooling supplies out and organize there corner. I can finally say it is organized.
I do have there books to go through next which I'm dreading but I need to get it done by the weekend.
My husband spent the morning in the garden,and we finally got to sample our lettuce,which I must say was absolutely delishish,crisp and fresh!
We also got tyme and some other herbs from the garden too. I have to say growing your own veg and fruit is so rewarding,not only financially but health wise too, we know what we are eating and its always fresh.
I didn't get time to excersise today, to be honest I skipped breakfast and lunch. My day was not long enough. Its almost 830pm and I still have laundry to fold and put away. Kids are all in bed god bless them,they have been great considering we did chores all day. Well that's all for now. Thankyou for following. As always god bless you.

organizing!

With school starting back up soon, i want every room organized and ready to go! 

Today hubby and i tackled the boys room, and our home school books that we are going to use at some point this year, with three boys sharing a room you can only imagine what they get up to and what mess there is to clean. I normally clean there room on my own but hubby has some days off so he decided to help me, tomorrow i need to tackle some more things especially the kitchen cupboards,pantry and pots and pans. I also plan to do the girls room and sort some things out, i find myself organizing there things every month lately, with limited space it gets hard to do things how you want. 

Today hasn't been a bad day, but for some reason i am super tired and have no energy what so ever. hubby is cooking dinner for the kids and himself, i already ate so i am just sitting here while i got ten minutes to spare. it is almost 7:30pm and everybody is winding down, they are ready to eat and settle down for the evening. To be honest i can't wait to go to my bed tonight i am really tired. Hubby got us some movies to watch, so that makes it even better.

This week i want to make some home made protein bars to see if maybe a bar would help with energy when I'm feeling i have none, i have 2 recipes that i use but i am currently trying out a new one. (wish me luck) 

Heat wise today was manageable, it wasn't so bad. i still cant wait for the fall. i am planning to make some fall crafts this year, including some candles. don't you love the smell of scented candles? my favourite scent is rain and then strawberry, hmmm i like more or less all of them :-) 

Well i will conclude here, kids are almost done eating and are ready to be settled in. i hope everyone had a great day and happy Monday guys!! stay safe and as always god bless you and your family.

Is it over?

We are in July and i have to say i really can't wait for summer to be out of here already! It is to hot and sticky and my kids are driving me mad,where all they do is complain that they don't want to do things cause it's to hot, but yet they are bored. We start our home learning back up in about two weeks, the reason we start a little earlier is to catch up on some revised work and we always take a day off here and there so it all adds up and fits in well.
I also have some new things i want to try for this school year and savannah will be starting school too, so i want to make sure i can give everybody the right divided time.
I am also super excited as i have some great crafts i am dying to try out. I also have some field trips planned throughout the up coming year. So fingers crossed it should be a good one.
The kids are really looking forward to the fall season, we have some nice things planned for them, including there own pumpkin patch,that hubby and i planted for them and i must say they are growing really nice too.
  Once we start our system back up i will post and publish pictures of our daily crafts or what we have done that day.
thank you once again for stopping by our page.
As always god bless.

What have we been up to?

Hmmm let me think. Our family gets more busy in the summer time, kids want to be out. We take a break from school and we just enjoy late nights, sleep ins and of course be lazy!. LOL.

So we got the kids a pool a nice size one it holds 1100 gallons of water so its pretty nice and so was the price got it clearance for $49 yup. Hubby put up the kids trampoline too. So between pool and outdoor toys kids have been happy but it seems its more work for me due to all the towels and feet marks of in and out.  I really do not feel like cooking lately its just to hot, talking about hot its almost 100 degrees right now outside.

Our oldest had a friend over for a week so that was company for her.... We also got to go on an unexpected dinner date to lorghorns which we enjoyed. Had some nice alone time with each other.
We had a great 4th of july . hubby worked but was home by 4 like always so we still got to BBQ and do fireworks, it was nice we normally go out but this time we didn't it was just our family and beautiful. I plan to start blogging again as I have started the biggest loser 6 week diet. Atkins made me very sick and week. Hope everyone had a great holiday. I will post some pics. As always god bless you all.
