My Life In Pictures June 16, 2018 - June 23, 2018

June 16, 2018 - I didn't take any pictures of us staining the deck and really wish I did. We worked 10 hours on the 16th and 6 on the 17th. It was nice because we did it as a family. It was hot, we raced the sun, I got bit by bugs, my back hurt but I would do it all again to spend time with my husband and the kids doing something we can all be proud of.

June 17, 2018 - Tired, hot and in pain but staining the deck with so worth it.

June 18, 2018 - The house looks amazing so far. Still so much to do but the paint job is incredible and the deck and chimney looks amazing. I cannot believe I was living in that yellow house for 20 years and wasn't embarrassed.

June 19, 2018 - Our pretty pansies are so cute.  We took this shot because of the little bug inside it.

June 20, 2018 - Time for a graduation haircut. He has come so far since we first started coming to the barber. He is like a man sitting in the chair telling the barber what he wants without input from me.

June 21, 2018 - We are so proud of this boy. He has come so very far, is one of the best people I know and made a lot of friends over the past few years. He received a surprise award from the Chamber of Commerce for all the volunteer work he does at the shelter. I was overcome with how surprised he was and it took everything to keep it together. He spent the night with his peers dancing at a party that ended at midnight. It was the strangest thing to leave the house at 11 PM to go pick up my baby boy at a party ending at midnight. Thankfully the chaperones sent me many pictures and videos of him having the best time. I don't think anyone had as good a time as he did. 

June 22, 2018 - The last day of school. My son and the teacher's aid that was with him for the past 3 years. We are lucky to have her.

June 23, 2018 - When the sky looks this beautiful, you have to take a picture or 10.
