Long time and no blog what's the world to do

So it’s almost been a month since my last update and you’d think with all that time we have been busy…. And that’s true we have been very busy. So that’s why there has been no time to blog… sorry.

So what’s going on what’s going on. Well we recently took a trip to Indianapolis for a short stay for Tait’s Aunt and Uncle they had a 50 year anniversary party. So we took the girls on Saturday and got a hotel room with a pool so they could come back and swim and enjoy themselves. The party was nice it was just a simple get together and then we went back to there house, family included of course, and had a food there. It was really good. The girls really enjoyed swimming and we had a good time just being around family.

Then we stayed home for the Fourth of July. It was a very simple weekend, but we have major moving coming up so we wanted to enjoy the quietness of this weekend. We cooked out on the grill got some fireworks and got ready for the show. We all had a four day weekend so that made it nice. The fireworks were horrible unfortunately. We got them at Wal-mart and they were all freaking smoke fireworks there wasn’t a fountain in the bunch, nor was there sparklers but I had bought some of them separately so at least we had some sort of “fire” for our fireworks. The girls I don’t think really cared Lehna kept saying how stinky the fireworks were but you know it was okay.

We even managed to play some golf. I shot a 107, not too bad for the first round of the year. Tait shot one over so he settled with a 73. We are getting geared up for the next couple of weekends.

So this weekend we are heading back to Indiana to Williamsport, for the much anticipated Golfing and Campout. I’m really looking forward to the campout and the golfing to be honest with you. We purchased a tent this past weekend so we are set for the night. We just need to get hotdogs and pop and we’ll be all set. I think this weekend will be a ton of fun. At least I hope it will be a ton of fun that is the idea anyway. The girls seem really excited to go so we are going to take off on Friday and go from there. There is also two family reunions going on at the same time. The campout/golf outing is part of the Brooks reunion (Helen’s side) then the Kennedy Reunion (Tim’s side) is the following day. I think both will be a ton of fun and anytime I can get together with family I’m a happy girl, you know. So it will be a lot of fun getting together and having a good time.

Then we will come back next weekend and rest again. Then we are going back down to Indiana the last full weekend in July for the FOP golf tournament, which that should be a TON of fun. I love that golf tournament, we play in it yearly and it’s just a ton of fun. So we are going back down for that. Then the last weekend in July, 1st weekend in August Marcus and Jackie are coming up to go to the airshow and we are going to have them one night then we are going to go up with them to visit mom for the weekend. So we are going to be go go go for the next couple of weeks but it will be SOOOOO much fun!!!

It’s crazy times at work right now, we are trying to get things set up with our office. I have all of my staff hired and I’m working on getting everything organized as far as permits and such. We will start everyone on Monday. So I’m excited about that, and I hope by then we can set up shop actually IN the office but due to permits and that kind of thing we are having problems getting everything set up and organized in time. It’s crazy how quickly this has come together, but I will be really excited once everyone is set up and ready to go. I just came back yesterday from flying to Lousiville for computer training on both Kronos and also our Humans system, so I think that it will be pretty quick once we get the system learned and set up. I have a feeling it’s going to be kind of muddy until we get familiar with the system. But luckily everyone seems to be happy about the change of vendor so this is a good thing.

So that’s where we are. The girls are loving the daycare arrangements we have right now. Helen is watching the girls on a daily basis. We are going to look for someone to watch them maybe 1-2 days a week just to give Helen a break when I’m up and going to 40 hours per week b/c I know that there will be tiems where Helen will want to have that break.

So that’s life in the fast lane right now. We are just grudging through all of this one day at a time.
