So much, yet so little.

There has been so much craziness going on around here, but almost nothing profound to tell about. We had Jillian and Madison a little birthday party which was so very nice. They both loved opening the presents, and having family over. We grilled burgers, and hot dogs, and enjoyed the afternoon. In the next week or two, we'll have Madison her own party with her own friends. Maybe a trip to the movies, or a sleepover. Nothing too major....again.

Our church is having VBS this week...so the kids are heading to that every morning. It's been a good break for them. Unfortunately, we have very little planned for the rest of the summer...other than church camp. I've got to get on the ball and get some plans going. We regularly say we are going to take a quick trip up to Hot Springs, and take the kids to Magic Springs, and Crystal Falls, but we just never seem to do it. Now with gas at $4.00 a gallon, we have to really think about everywhere we go and do.

We did learn that Jillian is allergic to ants. She stepped in an ant bed on Wednesday night while we were all out in the front yard. I immediately picked up her up and dusted them off of her. At first, I didn't even see a bite, but then she quickly started breaking out all over. Then her lips started swelling. My nephew is allergic to ants, so instantly I put 2 and 2 together and ran her up to the after hours clinic. By the time she got a shot, she had clawed herself to the point of bleeding, and I was not a happy mama for having to wait as long as they made me. Of course, my logic was at the emergency room, she would have had to wait much longer. So, we are now in the process of killing every ant that comes anywhere near our house!!! Living in the south, and Louisiana doesn't make that very easy....but so it goes.

So that's really about it. Hopefully something wonderful and fantastic and amazing will happen real soon that I can tell you all about!! But for now...that's it! Sorry!!
