So Here it is~

I have been neglecting my family this week to redesign the blog. 
Of course I am always changing small things here and there, but this redesign was more dramatic than the rest.

• New header
• New colors
• New font
• New tabs
• Simplified the face of the blog
• Did not get to the changeable header
• Still need to add past post and links into my tabs
• Also would like to add a recipe and a book love tab

What am I missing? If you know of anything you enjoy having on your own blog or would like to see here, please share.

Now for a little ramble~

Summer time~

Our last day of school was actually over a week ago. The first week we relaxed. I had no idea how ready I was for summer break until it arrived.

After a week of laziness we were getting antsy. With this, I decided it was time to write up a summer schedule. A schedule that is not near as structured, but a little something to get us off our bums. The kids are already brown, even with the coats of sunblock applied throughout the day. They have been having a blast on their slip and slide and in their pool. Dad moved the swingset slide to the pool. Now they have their own little water park.

 Baseball~ Little Man will be finishing up this years baseball season tonight. I have to say as much as we enjoy watching him play it is really too hot for them. All and all it has been a good fun year.

    Making time for the good stuff~

 You wives and mommas out there, when do you find time to sit and blog? It is always something that hangs in the back of my mind, the mommy guilt. So what is your blogging routine? Do you also feel the mommy guilt creep in when you make time to sit and blog?

 Garden news~

We just finished harvesting our potatoes this morning. For our first year to plant potatoes, I'd say we did pretty well. They are delicious. There really is a difference in homegrown.

 Other garden goods on their way include purple hull peas, okra, squash, lima beans and tomatoes.

Tantrum threes~ Wow, I never agreed with this in the way I agree with it today. That Sweet Pea is in major need of discipline. The controlling tantrums are on all of our nerves.
Of course she is a doll. She can be the sweetest at times, but when something does not go her way we all pay for it. Allen and I are doing what we can to stay persistent. As I know the is a stage that will soon pass.

Allen has started blogging about his Catholic Faith. To check it out click on Catholic Journey~

Blessings to you all! Catherine Anne
