Redneck Sprinklers

This is the view from my backyard in the summer. Isn't it gorgeous? I just love living where I grew up. The irrigation system or "pivot" as my dad refers to it, was running last week. It brought back a fond memory of my sister Mitzi and I riding bikes in our swimsuits under it. (Tears! Mitzi, we had a great time didn't we?)So what did the sappy girl do? Suited up the kids and myself and ran around under the pivot!! Had a blast!

Randi was the only one who cooperated with the camera. Gotta love that girl!

Can you see the water coming down through the live oak branches? Under the tree it was like a fine mist. Perfect for the scorcher-of-a-day we were having.

I love this one of my girl. Always trying to catch rain on her tongue. So glad I got to bring this great memory to life for my kids. :)

Movie Night Anyone?

 

Two movies for $9!! My sister shared this with me yesterday courtesy Living Social. (You should really sign up for this too. Great deals!) Thanks Mitzi! I'm already planning a date night/girl's night/Harry Potter dork night. Hmmm may need to grab a few more :) Hurry this promotion has a limited number available.

Still recuperating from last night's project graduation: blow-up slides (had way too much fun on these), lots of food, and a hypnotist (freaky what he got the participants to do....huge football players showing their best ballet moves, shy girls sniffing their neighbors, just to name a few!)

Will miss you Class of 2011! Mrs. Boyd loves you!

Have a great weekend!
