Weekend

I hope the everyone had a wonderful weekend! I sure did! My six year anniversary was this past saturday.  In the six years the hubs and I have never gone out and celebrated. My sister in law had plans for the kids, so everything worked out. My husband surprised me with a new camera lens. A 50mm f1.8 lens! I was so excited to use it, so he took me to a park. We spent three hours just walking and talking about everything. It was really nice to spend time with him and to have a conversation with no interruptions.  "Our" day was wonderful and we both really enjoyed it. On Sunday we had a small dinner at my mother's apartment and the kids got to spend time with their Gma. The weather was beautiful that day and the kids were able to swim and play in her backyard. I took a  walk and played around with my camera. Her landlord lives behind her and loves to garden. He has all kinds of fruits and veggies growing. My mom has known him for years and his garden is not fenced in, so he allows us to walk through it as long as we don't disturb anything. Him and his wife are such sweet people. They have given me many of their crops for my family to enjoy. The walk was fantastic and I'm hoping to get some more pictures of his fruit to use for my kitchen decor. For now I will leave you with a few of my pictures taken with my anniversary gift. Did I forget to mention that my husband also purchased some Florabella photoshop actions. They are all so beautiful and Shana takes such wonderful pictures of her children and horses. Check it out if you get a chance!

My husband wanted to play with the cam too.

Gma bought her a mini golf set.

Gma bought him a pool for her patio.

Beautiful flowers at her landlord's house.

We've had so much rain the pomegranate bushes were full of fruit!

Grapes

Figs.

Smartphones!

Every night before I go to bed I run a to do list through my head. It seems like almost every night I have write a blog post on my list! MY blog has definitely been a struggle for me to keep up with. It seems like anytime I sit down at a computer my daughter is "working" too. I rarely get to use my computer during the day. Well even at night. Between driving my son to school, cooking three meals a day, laundry (which seems to never end), household chores, and running errands there is hardly any "ME" time.

Since I rarely have the computer to myself I came up with this brilliant plan! I'm not sure why it has taken me such a long time to find a solution to my oh so lonely blog. ( which I'm sure the only three people that read this are my friends :/) I decided to check the app store on my iPhone, and bam there was a blogger app! How cool is that?! I'm sure that I am late to the blogger app party, but it sure did make my night! So here I am promising that I will be posting regularly again. There is no way that I can't do it now! I mean I always have my phone on me so it seems like it will be very convenient! Oh iPhone how I love you!( I'm sure all phones have the app) so for now I'm going to leave you with a few pictures from the past month. Enjoy!

We went to the beach, got our zoo membership again, and went to a carnival near the house.
