Today was another gorgeous day!
I had to go get an alignment and oil change, while that was taking place mom and I went to lunch and then one of our favorite stores, Big Lots. Savers is my other Fav. LOL Oh and can't forget Dollar Tree. Haha

After all my errands were done I came home. The boys were already home and doing homework. They hurried with homework and piano practice and then it was into the pool. I decided to hop in for a bit too but once I got in I saw dirt on the bottom of the pool and I can't stand that, so much to the boys aggravation I think, I got the pool vacuum out and started vacuuming. 100 degrees out makes for perfect pool temps, in fact until we got it stirred up that top layer of water was actually hot, but we stirred it and then it was like a nice bath. LOL Zaylee would have loved it today!
So after that we all came in took showers, ate some dinner and got ready for church.

Today was Sis. Neumanns birthday so after church we had cake for her and then Josh and Anabel suggested In-N-out, I love In-N-Out so how could I possibly refuse. Mom invited a few others but they declined and we thought we were on our own as usual, until "surprise!" Bro. Derrick and his chillins pull in the parking lot, I thought my boys were going to have an excite attack, they just love Dwayne and Bro. D to death (not sure if I spelled his name right?) So we all had a nice dinner together, or late night snack, maybe I should call it. LOL

Dallas had his first band class today, he was so excited, the first day was just getting to know the teacher and getting the list of things he needed and learning what will be expected in class and all that. He and 2 other boys are the only sax players, sounds like most of the class consists of trumpets, flutes and clarinets. He will have band on Mondays and Wednesdays. Travis has already been trying his sax out, I think my ears will go out before my kids are grown, I have piano learners, drum learners and now I'm going to have sax learners. EEPS! Lol But we are all having so much fun, I just love it all and someday it will be so awesome when we have our own family band and we can sing and play together in church and make beautiful music!

So now I am home and ready to go get my book and a glass of ice and get under some covers and relax. And yes I know, about now my dad is saying "you need to relax? isn't that all you do?" LOL
