Too Sweet...

Today Colby started golf camp with 14 of his friends... it was their very own camp! It sounds like they had a lot of fun... for which I am glad. It was also nice to hang out with some girls.... and get my mind off everything else.

After camp (which I will be taking pics of tomorrow because they were all too cute!) Colby and I had a little lunch at The St. Louis Bread Co. It was so nice to just sit and talk with him alone... that doesn't happen much.

With that he says,

Mom, if you could go any where in the world on a trip where would you want to go?

I replied,

I think it would have to be Hawaii or maybe even Australia

As Colby smiled and shook his head I asked

Why.... where would you want to go?

He then says,

I don't know I just wanted to know where I was going to take you when I am a pilot.


I thought it might be the sweetest thing that he was thinking about where to take his mom... I hope that sweet gene stays around for a while!! Now for those who really know me, I guess you are laughing about the whole idea of my son wanting to be a pilot... well How in the world would I ever be able to deny him a flight.... I guess I am really going to have to get over that fear!

What a Day... or Month or 2....

Well - first I should start out that this might be a pretty negative post.... I am having a pity party for myself. Just to fill you in with the short...short..short version.... the buyer of our house... didn't get her loan. Thats what it all comes down too - although.... there is so much that goes along with it... lies, misrepresentation, and oh so much more. With that I am not sure where we go next. Well... I do know that we are going to be moving back into our house.. yes moving twice - but NOT into a new home... that stinks! We are pursing some legal action - as they have completely breached their contract.... but it still hurts... BAD! I will keep you updated if things change... on a brighter note - I do have the best husband in the world... as I got this e-mail from him first thing this morning...(Before the bad news later today)

Good morning, was thinking about you. If I hear anything today, I'll let you know.
If this doesn't work out, something else will. Everything happens for a reason.
Try to remember...no matter what happens with the house, we still have the important things.
Hang in there and I'll talk to you later.

I love you.


I know he is right - so I am trying hard to keep that in the forefront of my mind! But it is so hard to see that when its something you really want... I'm trying...

On to new topics....

Camryn is going to camp this week with Girl Scouts... she is there everyday from 8-3 -- its a nice break for me and she is having so much fun with it! I have a few pics of it that I will post later this week...

Colby played Jr Golf today... he is a 6 holer now.... and he shot 33 on six holes today... pretty good and this was his first day out there. He had fun and it was really fun watching - he is getting so grown up. He also had a baseball game tonight and they won 6-1 which is also exciting! He had a much better game than last time and the whole team looked awesome!

Well - I think that is it for now.... hope everyone else had a much better day - and I just pray tomorrow is better!!!

A few things...

First - lets start with the movie last night..... It was so good.... everything I could have wanted from the movie. You had to wonder if it could possibly be as good as the series... but the answer is Yes! Everyone was so true to their character... I just loved it. Not to mention it was just a great girls night out... they served Cosmo's at the movies in fun glasses that lit up... how fun is that!? And I am sure it led to lots of coloring...hopefully outside of the lines! :)


We also had another baseball game tonight. Colby has been playing with most of these boys for years. Dean is coaching the team again this year. Tonight wasn't one of Colby's best games... but I just love to watch him no matter what, although watching him pitch is a little nail biting! The final score to the game was 16 to 15... Way to go Crushers! Here are a couple pictures from the game and also a picture of Ryan from the game, (my Godson) because he is just so stinking cute!

Colby on first while Dean is first base coach... check out that base.. its huge!

Getting ready to bat
Ryan - told ya he was cute!
This is a pitching picture from another game... I didn't get any pitching pictures today.

With that said - let me give you a run down on what has been going on here.....last Friday we spent the day moving into our temporary place of residence (per Peggy! :)) Anyway - our phone, Internet and Dish were all turned off at the house that day. No closing on the house - as expected.. long story... we spent Friday night out with friends for an end of the year party... more moving on Saturday.... lunch with my sister and kids...Sunday we had more moving, BBQ ed with more friends and Monday we will say was the
FINAL moving day and Dean and Colby had a chance to play a little golf!! We are officially in the Villa (sorry Peggy!) After a few issues we finally got our phone and Internet up and running,which is why I haven't blogged, on Tuesday. Summer started off on Tuesday with football camp and bike rides, and we have even already had a birthday party, lunch with friends, days at friends houses.... and an afternoon at Six Flags with tons of friends.... needless to say we have been busy!! Should have more to update soon and will have pictures too.... and on a final note.... closing on house is now set for tomorrow.... PLEASE pray that goes well.... really just goes at all!
