Christmas in July?

 
I know who wants to hear that word already! It is only JULY! Well I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe 4th of July this year. Ours went over well and the guys had too much fun. I believe that the 4th is definitely a mans holiday when it comes to fireworks.

Anyway...I am participating in a Christmas in July Ornament swap over at Terri's Notebook

I normally participate in an Ornament Swap with friends in December and make about 12 ornaments and come home with 11 different ornaments and one of my own. It is always a blast and I LOVE homemade ornaments. So I can't wait to get started early!

A Day of Science

I have been home with the kids for a few days and we started my mini vacation with the Twilight Triple Feature on Tuesday the 29th and let me just say AWESOME!!!
Wednesday was a full day of resting since we didn't get home until 3am and I had been up since 5am on Tuesday.

Thursday we didn't do much as I was having personal issues and had to go to the doc...It's too embarrasing to discuss on such a public place.

So on Friday I took 5 kids to the St. Louis Science Center and brought along a picnic lunch. The best thing about the science center is it is FREE minus certain activities which we opted out of. It is also close to the St. Louis Zoo which is also FREE to get in. If your ever in the area definitely check those two places out.

Here are a few pics from our day.
