What a Week!!!

So this last week has had it's ups downs and inbetweens! I've realized that if I were a single mom I would live in an apartment. Since Jason has been gone one of the sprinkler line broke, then the outlet that the sprinkler system plugs into went out, and oh yes the swamp cooler didn't work. AHHHH I thought I may lose my mind. However I have the most amazing family! My Dad fixed the swamp cooler after many hours on the roof! and my father in law fixed the sprinkler line!! YAY for fabulous fathers this close to father's day. I think they are this wonderful naturally, but they may be sucking up for good gifts :)




Now when Jason comes home (on Thursday YAY) he just has to deal with the outlet. So that will be a relief to him. We are super excited to have Jason come home. We have been missing him like crazy, even though we just finally got into the single mom routine which is about right since Jason will be home in 2 days.



Over the weekend we went and bought Jason's Fathers day present! A most fabulous blue grill (no, Jason won't read this and if he did....well I already told him). My mom and I also recoverd my kitchen chairs by turning the most adorable fabric into oilcloth.



The chairs turned out AMAZING!!! See below...it is the before and after!


Really it has been an amazing week. I have had a lot of good quality time with my kids and my parents. I really don't get to see my dad that often since he lives in Minnestoa and am truly greatful to get to spend as much time with him as I do.


So, YAY for another good week.
