Summer is finally here!!!
The kids are finally out of school! I am probably the only mom excited that her kids are home. :) I love doing things with them and having them around, although they drive me nuts!
Dani was going to try to start going out to the barn more but they have changed the rules and you now have to sign up to go out. So since the barn has been out of the question this week she has been spending alot of time at the pool. Kid is getting tan!
Dakotah is trying to do a million things at one time this summer. He has so many things he wants to do. He is going to Stephen's til Saturday then probably will go back after Father's Day. Between all of Dakotah's friends he probably won't be home too much this summer. :)
I am getting excited about my vacation with Dani. It is going to be so much fun! We are trying to go through the White House on our way up to Pennsylvania. If we don't get tickets then we will just go through some of the other places nearby. After the Wash DC we are going to Pittsburgh to visit our awesome friend, Kira. I think we are taking Dani to the zoo. She is excited and will have so much fun with Kira. Once we are done there we are headed over to Indiana for a while then down to hopefully Alabama then to Georgia for Dani's birthday with Daddy. It will be a fun vacation for the two of us.
I am still going to school 4 nights a week. UGH Math! 5 1/2 weeks left! I am also taking another Early Childhood Ed class online. I am down to only babysitting my sweet sweet Mason! It is so much fun doing stuff with him. We sure will miss him when he moves.
We had a very busy weekend this past weekend. Friday we had Lil Kota's birthday party at the barn. I made her cake. It was fun and ended up really cute. The party was fun. We brought Mason with us to the barn and he had a great time, as always with Cerenity and Kota. Dani and Lil Kota went home with Hilary Friday night and spent the night. They had a great time! Saturday night we went to Hilary & fam's going away party. They are moving next week. Sunday Don and I took Dani out to lunch at Buffalo Wild Wings then to see A-Team, a great movie! Monday was the Army birthday so noone had to work and we had Mason's birthday party. I made his cake and it turned out great too! We had a great time. Spent too much time in the pool and everyone turned red but still had a great time.
Don is good too. He is just working working and working! :) He is looking forward to the first week of July when he takes vacation and his best friend and fam come down for a week. It is going to be so much fun, always is! Then he is going to Georgia for 2 months.
Well that's Lusterville this week ... Later all! :P

Another Day ...
All is well in Lusterville ...
I had a very long talk last night with an unexpected person last night and alot of fog is now gone. It is great when someone you least expect to talk to is there and tells you things that were missing in life. :)
Kids are good ... Doing Dakotah/Dani things but good. They have one more week of school left. So ready for summer vacation!
School is going good for me. All who know me know I hate math ... but math is coming along. 7 more weeks!!! My online course is going good. The ECE classes are always kinda easy for me. I am hoping to finish up my AA this time next year. Working hard and hopefully can finish up by then. Really really want to be done before Don deploys.
Mason is moving the 1st week of August :( I'm going to try and get back into substitute teaching. Application is almost complete. I just have to get a couple more things and get it turned in. With any luck I'll get to have a job I enjoy.
We have a full weekend ahead of us next week. Lil Kota's bday party, Hilary & Fam's going away party, Jinx's obedience class, Don's nerdery group, Mason's bday party, and hopefully some time at the lake! Never a dull moment in Lusterville on the weekends!!!
Summer plans:
Tab, Jeremy, and kids are coming to visit us the first week of July! So excited. We are gonna have so much fun!!! Don is leaving in July for a couple months. Dakotah is trying to go on another road trip to OK/TX. He had so much fun on his last trip! Dani and I are going on a Mommy/Dani vacation. Thinking of going through Wash DC and Pennsylvania on our way to Indiana. Hopefully we will make it to Illinois before we head back home. Gonna be gone for 3 weeks! So much fun!!!
Have a great week everyone!!!

Memorial Day Weekend...
We had a great weekend filled with barn, riding (Dani falling off twice), movies, relaxation, and Fantasy Lake.
Fantasy Lake was alot of fun. I saved a little boy. The lifeguards weren't doing their job and while they were talking a little boy was drowning. I jumped in and swam to him, got him out, then proceeded to tell the lifeguards about themselves. The guy told me he was a lifeguard and was going his job ... really? Then why didn't they hear the little boy screaming help between him going under about 3 times??? UGH teen lifeguards! Aside from the idiot lifeguards we had a great time! Didn't even get burnt! YAY!!!
Jess came and spent the weekend with Dani, which is always fun. The girls have been best friends every since we moved here and it's always fun having the two of them together!
Dakotah called me yesterday to say he loves me! :) He has been gone since Thursday. He is having so much fun. He went to Fort Sill, OK for a couple days and now it at Fort Hood, TX. He is have a blast in Texas with Lamar and Ishy, of course DayDay too. Lamar and Ishy are Kotah's best friends from Washington.
Tomorrow is back to the "real world" :( Don't wanna go Don't wanna go!

Awesome Weekend!!!
We had another great weekend. Love the warm weather and have been spending so much time outside!
Dani had a horse show on Saturday. She did great, as always. Stoney didn't even throw her when he was under speaker! She even rode Belle and did poles. She has never tried poles before so I was very proud of her. I posted pictures of the show on facebook.
Dakotah spent the weekend at a friends house. Being boys! :D
Today we went to the beach. It was so much fun. Dani and I were out playing in the waves when I looked up and saw a dolphin a foot from us. After telling her it was a shark and getting her out of the water she was so mad at me. It was funny but in the end she was so happy to be able to say a dolphin was a foot from her. We sat on the beach and watched it jump and swim around for a while before it swam away. She even drug her Daddy out into the ocean for a few minutes. The water wasn't really warm yet because we got there early so Don didn't stay in long. But the water temp didn't keep Dani or myself from playing! :D Lil Kota went with us and had alot of fun too. I posted pictures on facebook.
We are not ready for Monday. It's going to be a long week, so much to do for all of us :(

Ugh Mondays ...
Someone forgot to pay the NC heating bill. It is FREEZING outside! What the heck happened to our warm summer weather :(
It was a great weekend. Saturday Dakotah went camping with his friends. They had alot of fun but were scared of a Russian guy and an old man with a poodle. ROFL ... boys! I got to see my Stevo too. ;p
Don had his friends over and they did nerdy stuff til way past I went to bed on Saturday. NERDS!
Sunday was great too. My hubby and kids love me so much! :) Nice to be reminded every now and then. Dani had all my "kids" sign this huge card for me! I love all my "kids" aka Dani's friends! :)
I got to reconnect with one of my favorite people ever this weekend too. It was so awesome!!! It's been over 12 years since we've talked. How cool is facebook sometimes! Good thing we both have unlimited texting!
Dani's got braces issues. Her band is falling off. It would be ok if it wasn't connected to the appliance in the top of her mouth and the band on the other side. Poor kid. She was crying and we all know when Dani cries my heart melts. We got it pushed back up onto her tooth the best we could but without cement it just keeps falling back down. She was hungry and couldn't eat because she was biting on the metal. Took her this morning to get it fixed but we have to wait til this afternoon. Poor kid can't seem to catch a break! :(
Ok Mason is hugging on me ... My baby boy wants my attention!
